roflmao!  that would probably be it.  id been trying to figure out what badwords it stood for but i always got stopped a fm  instead of mf....  anyway i did look around but i never found a place that explained what FFS was.  you dont think i would ask that stupid a question on here without spending at least six hours trying to find it, do you?  hm,  well you guys dont know me.  i wouldnt.  i can be stupid, but only as a last resort.

I always tell me kids to RTBQ and RTFQ in exams...

RTBQ is read the bloody question...  and they give me such a look when I then tell them to RTFQ, but that's read the FULL question.  You'd be surprised at how many kids don't.

i have my neighbors 14 year old around a lot, and im amazed at how much easier his life would be if he would actually listen to ALL the words in a sentance.  hell a lot of adults would.  i'll say like pick up the blue thingie on the table.  and he'll pick up something red.  then he holds it up and gives me a helpless look.  i believe in taking every chance to exercise the frontol lobes so i'll just ask, does it look blue to you?  then he looks at it as if its a surprising question.  then i tell him, cris, turn the brain ON.    he'll giggle and say hes stupid.  i'll  tell him, no you're lazy,  turning the brain on is an OPTION you chose not to exercise.   then he asks, well what do you want.  and i say, what did i say?  and he says, you want the blue thing.  so i say, why the f*** are you asking me then?  then he looks back on the table peering as if there was any more then one blue thing there.   so i rephrase to help him understand.  give me the mf'ing blue thing!  that usually works.  i think im going to have to start docking him time on my highspeed connection for excessive mental laziness.  i bet his iq doubles overnight.

Verdaeni, this is the link that would interest you then.

what a wonderful link, thankyou!  hopefully this will keep me from getting a trashcan under my name.  although im contrary so the idea of getting 5 trashcans is interesting me.. but not if it limits my posting.  i think if senator is completely useless,  that might be fun to hang next to my maxis SSS.   now if only i had a bachelors in history as well....     is that link new? i only noticed it when i logged in tonight but hadnt gotten around to reading it yet.  i've been looking for the meaning of FFS since he was on MTS2 so maybe i gave up to soon.  anyway, thanks bunches!

Apparently the link appeared on 10 July so it is fairly new.

Changed - not very original though.

Edit: what are the rule about avatars? What size do they have to be?


Title: Re: really stupid question, go ahead hit me!
Post by: J. M. Pescado on 2006 July 27, 09:04:39
128x128. The board will reject anything larger.

Hope this works. I chose to upload my own avatar.
Does the image get saved to MATY or does this image only appear when I'm online?
Sorry if this is a stupid question but I've never had a custom avatar before.

That avatar is rather disturbing. What do you mean "I wish I could"? Is your avatar changing option disabled? Or broken? What?

From what I understand, Pescado has forced that avatar upon kewian, and I think Mike is might be somehow involved.

It should be saved here. If it disappears and I notice, I'll let you know.  ;)

You mean Kewian's option to change av has been greyed out??  ::)

Maybe Mike found that picture?  :D
