**handy**

You don’t have to make a post to test a new sig. If you change the sig, all of your old posts that you checked Show Signature will have the new sig once you update your profile.

_You don’t have to make a post to test a new sig._

Of course you don’t–obviously, aha isn’t _testing_, he’s _bragging_. Sort of like a woman waiving her new engagement ring under the noses of her unmarried friends: “Does that diamond look too expensive to you?”

I, on the other hand, do not need my existance validated by the SDMB moderators. Not that I’m jealous. And we can always try to catch Aha’s bouquet when he throws it at the wedding. To mix metaphors. In a completely incomprehensible manner.
