    Just my way of saying that if you post your computers specifications in your signature then you are really, truely, very very sad indeed.

    a quote from the book "fear and loathing in las vegas" by Hunter S. thompson, i liked it because most people forget the need to let loose and relax, but good aul hunter here went one better and went on an ether binge in las vegas.

    My signature contains grants information. It comes from having information on grants.

    Though "Edu-Myth" is a phenomenon relevant only to the TCD boards.

    Well, mine is the letter L and a picture of Mao Tse Tung - The idea is that together they make LMAO. (For anyone who is new to this interweb business).

    Oh and the "for everyone and no one" thing is stolen from Nietzsche. It's not so much that I'm an obsessive fan of his or anything but rather that I found that phrase memorable.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,820 ✭✭✭Femelade


    mine are lyrics from a morrissey song


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,437 ✭✭✭Crucifix


    It doesn't come from anything, and it means "Always asleep" or "Always lazy".
