The "E"-less thread.

You authors try typing posts lacking that symbol prior to ‘f’ for fun and no important grounds?

You might try omitting a symbol in support of a political standpoint. Try this link: http://www.salon.com/books/feature/2001/02/09/dubya/index.html
An author at Salon.com asks us to snub a symbol that is prior to ‘x’ and vocally sounds similar to ‘dubya’, so as to show loathing for our nation’s top administrator.

I am sorry for such illustration of that fifth symbol in a link, but I could not avoid it.

Why is this insignifigant bit of board history brought back now, from so long ago, you ask? As it turns out, I had a random thought about this cross my mind a few days ago. And try as I might, that random thought would not withdraw from my mind.

That random thought that annoys so: is that saying by Mr. 0071 originally from that “Bard of Avon” guy? It sounds similar to a part of a stanza from that play of his. You know what play… about a boy and a girl, and fighting dads, in Italy, and poison, and Tybolt… I could go on, but you know the play I’m talking about :).

Your clarification is gratifying. Thanks.

I think it is that a bay might bring you fright by its width and furor.

Oops, I am only now cognizant that this is a bump of posts long ago, for raising a point of clarification. Pardon my ignorant scrawling.

Oh, and Mr. Rasta guy, your post was inspiring in its simplicity and cunnning … until your typing digits brought forth a “th_” word.

hmmm, I was of an opinion that I had a post in this string in posts long long ago, but why can’t I not scroll it up?

Did I turn my mind to an odd pursuit? It looks as though I did. pout!

I will know say JA FRUTY! Pass the Mayon pablo. Pass San Antionio.

Myrmaid, i thought your " " bar was brokn! tsk, tsk, tsk…

myow! Kittycat wants to play! thinks this sort of play is fun! but it’s hard for kittycat to think of words without alpha symbol or whachacallit, so kittycat is going away! :smiley:

slinks off, massaging poor achy cranium

Oh no, not this again. Why is it that this topic crops up now and again? Must I do this for a fourth and fifth posting? No, I think not. Although, I just did. I am brought low by my own vanity. How ironic. And, still, how fitting. Gadzooks.

I am procrastinating again. I should do work, but I’m blowing probably an hour, minimum, on silly SDMB posts. I must say, though, that this is a fun way to slack off!

What do you think? Do you think? I usually don’t, I’m afraid. My brain is moribund. That is the root of many of my failings. I wouldn’t say I’m a total loss, though; I can still say sarcastic, sardonic, absurd, ridiculous, and/or funny things now and again.

I’m sorry for this post’s lack of organization and insight. Dawn wasn’t long ago. I’m still not fully conscious. (And I’m a bit of an insomniac, which is truly horrid on occasion. But I don’t think that I’ll go through too much today. That’s a good thing–not just for yours truly, but for my advisor and pupils, too.)

I wish I could drink Java now (a substance with a major alkaloid, not a way to program), but I can’t. It’s so unfair…

(I know, I know…nobody should quaff too much of that stuff, anyway; it’s toxic in big amounts. That’s not improving my morning any, though. And I wish I could munch a donut or two, although that kind of high-caloric crap is also lousy for you.

<sigh>. All right, all right. I’ll stop with the griping…back to work…

But I might run for food first.

–Scrib.

P.S. I know this is an old discussion, and I shouldn’t add to it, but I didn’t post anything back in April. So why can’t I play now?
–S., who is still hungry and zonked out.

Ack! A violation in my last words!!! Oh, man…

I’m such a goof.

This awful word “substance” is in my main post. What a faux pas! How about putting “thing” in its slot?

Argh.

A quick brown fox was humping a lazy dog?
How should I word an untruth? Its common synonynm contains
an insidious symbol. Wait-what about paraphrasing Swift’s
Huoynonyms (sp) ?
“Said a thing which is not.”
Odious!

This is difficult. I cannot talk about my small minions without using said bad… thing?

I think my habitation in this discussion is bad, as my nick (stuck with yours truly at birth by my mom) contains two of those usually occuring alpha parts.

(Ow! This hurts!)

bump

i lyk this sort of thing! and no “alphasymbols” in “bump”, right? :smiley:
