That’s basically what I said when I reported it. At minimum it should be moved to IMHO. ---

He’s been suspended (I admit that I’m assuming gender, but I think the odds are in my favor). And the thread has been cornfielded. ---

Or else that’s the combo to his luggage and he doesn’t want to forget it. I’d sooner believe "oh"s are wheels than zeros are wheels. Ohs are rounder than zeros. Maybe it’s like Dr. Who where each incarnation is numbered and he’s the zeroth Darth. The very, very, very zeroth Darth. ---

It’s self-deprecating humour. 0000 in unicode is the null character. He’s quite self-effacing and a humble guy. ---

You’ll get a Darth Vader FFFF which just sounds contemptuous. ---

We know Vader’s breathing sounds labored due to his life support equipment. I have to assume the FFFF is the sound of his less-labored-than-normal farting. No fricative, all smooth flow.
