That "News" Thread

[Darkmoon]

Eh, just sounds odd...

The 2nd is Sherlock Holmes Day. And it goes to the 4th? How is that?

[Sherlock] [Watson]

Surely, that must be Professor Moriarty, rather than Watson?

[King Of Hearts]

Pirates of the Carribean... YaAAAARRRRRRRR!

News: Me? I'm dishonest, and a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest. Honestly. It's the honest ones you want to watch out for, because you can never predict when they're going to do something incredibly... stupid.

POTC referrence...one of the admins/mods obviously likes Captain Jack Sparrow.

[Reese Tora]

And it is also 'What if Cats and Dogs has Opposable Thumbs?' Day too? Eh?

Why, I do believe that the answer lies on our boards.

Shun the non-believer! Shun! Shuuuun!

I thought The Cloak (NSFW- cartoon violence) was better.  Anything with a disembodied head of Robert Mitchum is aces with me.

Our flower is the narcissus? Wouldn't that make us all narcissistic?

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Only if it watches you, Gabi, only if it watches you. :-)

[LionHeart]

It's certainly something to reflect on...

[superluser]

Only if it watches you, Gabi, only if it watches you. :-)

I'm not sure that this works.  If it watches her, does that mean that she's a flower or that the flower has echolalia or...what?  Perhaps you mean if you watch the flower?

It's certainly something to reflect on...

This, on the other hand...

in ancient rome there was a poem
about a dog who found two bones
he picked at one
he licked the other
he went in circles
he dropped dead

All me life flashed before me eyes. It was really borin'.

Chicken Run?  Good movie.

[Nikki]

Let no joyful voice be heard! Let no man look up at the sky with hope! And let this day be cursed by we who ready to wake... the Kraken!

Yaarrr...i be Ready to heed the words of Davey Jones...

Now, all we be needin' up thar is

I've got a jar of dir~irt, I've got a jar of Dir~irt! Tnd guess what's inside it?

[Janus Whitefurr]

First of all, Papa Smurf didn't create Smurfette. Gargamel did. She was sent in as Gargamel's evil spy with the intention of destroying the Smurf village. But the overwhelming goodness of the Smurf way of life transformed her.

<3 Donnie Darko.

[Stygian]

And his damn bunny suit. Hells, I hated that movie...

[Darkmoon]

That movie rocks.

You're lucky I'm in a good mood, otherwise you'd get banned for comments like that.

[TheGreyRonin]

I've never seen it. Now I want to.

[Distracting]

I remember watching it in school. I loved it so much.

"Why are you wearing that stupid bunny suit?

Why are you wearing that stupid man suit?"

[King Of Hearts]

Havent seen Donnie Darko...

but "You stupid Bunnies"

reminds me of Jeff Smith's "Bone"

"Stupid, STUPID, rat creatures!"

And on the subject, anyone reading this post, you should be reading Bone... like yesterday.

[Stygian]

Nonsensical Americanized bullshit speak in concentrated form! Flails and fails!

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Nice to see the entries from Watership Down in there, too.

[superluser]

Hey llearch! What happens if I IP ban *.*.*.* ?

Nothing.  Just stay away from 255.255.255.255.

[Faerie Alex]

If you ban IP 127.0.0.1 could no one access teh forums?

Oh...is * used as a wildcard?

[xHaZxMaTx]

192.168.0.1

[Zina]

All the world will be your enemy, Prince With a Thousand Enemies. And when they catch you, they will kill you. But first, they must catch you - digger, listener, runner, Prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks, and your people will never be destroyed.

God, you guys are my heros tonight. <3333

[Gabi]

Do we get a "no middle name" pride? Because I have no middle name and I'm proud of it.

Oh, as for the question... if you banned 127.0.0.1, the only computer you'd be banning from posting would be the one the forum is on.

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Heh. RJ is -so- gonna get it....

[KarlOmega1]

Hazzy...edit that post please... seriously, you just creeped me out.

[Aridas]

and why is that?

[Gabi]

Maybe Karl's computer is part of a local network and that's its IP?

[superluser]

Maybe Karl's computer is part of a local network and that's its IP?

I think that's the standard IP address assigned by WiFi networks.  192.168/16 is one of three address spaces allocated for private networks.  You aren't supposed to be able to access them by those IP addresses from outside the subnet.

Me, I prefer 10/8.

Actually, 192.168.0.1 would be great for pranks like this.
