Nope: it is not only acceptable but expected. No fun in bland.

If you need to ask the question: "is it wrong for me, or, is it wrong for us ?" you are lost.

If we'd just ban VB6 developers this forum wouldn't suck so bad.

Nice recovery at the end, there. If you read some of MehGerbil's other posts I think you'll see the joke was nearly on you.

Hey, now.
Stay on topic. Everyone with the slightest thread of moral decency (and a disdain for the coding equivalent of pedophilia) is in perfect agreement with that statement.
If I were you, I would not so much as dignify the thread with a self-flagellating rant.
Being contrary to being contrary may still be contrary, but not if I wish it to be otherwise.

Yes, they are called in-laws. However, most people don't have in-laws, they have out-laws.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

I hate missing a good flame war when I'm on the other side of the planet. McSpudster, you are and a***hole, how dare you remove bits of the most interesting thread I have seen so far this morning.

Absolutely not! Stirring the pot is a long standing tradition here, among us original members, especially on weekends when things get a bit slow. If any of the newbies think it trolling, screw 'em. Let them find their own site and leave us to have a nice time.

Aussies: Are extremely patriotic to their beer.
Brits: Do not sing at all but prefer a large brass band to perform the anthen.
Americans: Are flag-waving, anthem-singing, and obsessively patriotic to the point of blindness.

Americans: Spend most of their lives glued to the idiot box.
Canadians: Don't, but only because they can't get more American channels.
Brits: Pay a tax just so they can watch only four channels.
Aussies: Export all their crappy programs, which no-one there watches, to Britain - where everybody loves them.
Americans: Will jabber on incessantly about football, baseball, and basketball.
Brits: Will jabber on incessantly about cricket, soccer, and rugby.
Canadians: Will jabber on incessantly about hockey, hockey, hockey, hockey, and how they beat the Americans twice, playing baseball.
Aussies: Will jabber on incessantly about how they beat the Poms in every sport they play them in.
Brits: Shop at home and have goods imported because they live on an island.

That's a good indication of just how old this is.
- Channel 5[^] was launched in 1997.
- Since October 2012, anyone who wants to watch TV without a satellite or cable subscription needs to have a "Freeview[^]" tuner, which pulls in over 60 channels.
We still pay the tax, and there's still almost never anything good on, but don't ever claim we only have four channels of crap!

But we do.
All the other 96 channels hold are repeats of the crap on the first four...again.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

But that still counts as 100 channels of crap!
