The clueless post which doesn’t realize this is a zombie thread because 2011 is still too new to remember it’s not 2010 and the middle few pages went entirely unread. ETA: The edit of the post to self-proclaim the poster an idiot. Headsmacky smilie. ETA ETA: the edit because the poster can’t spell ETA ETA ETA: the aborted eleventy first edit attempt wherein the poster gives up and goes to see what’s on in the Pit. ---

> [@NoClueBoy](#): > > post meant to be in other thread but missed edit window Response to a random earlier post knowing the poster would have no real objection since he thought the post was elsewhere to begin with. Stalling for time until the edit window closes for fear that there might be something meaningful to add. ---
