Impressive, but Futile

“Your ability to bang your head against reality in the hope that reality will crack first is impressive, but futile.”

— Geoffrey Brent, in rec.games.frp.dnd

Don’t get it on You

“You just can’t argue with a moron. It’s like handling Nuclear waste. It’s not good, it’s not evil, but for Christ’s sake, don’t get any on you!!”

— Chuck, PCGen mailing list

On English Language

“The problem with defending the purity of the English language is that English is about as pure as a cribhouse whore. We don’t just borrow words; on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways to beat them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary.”
– James D. Nicoll

“I’m happy to do the tracker stuff since our Microsoft Poxy Server (that’s poxy, not proxy) won’t let me connect to sourcesafe’s CVS…”

— Karianna, pcgen mailing list
