It finally happened.  DF has finally corrupted my thoughts.  Oh sure, plenty of times before have I thought about fortifying my apartment from goblin attacks.  And I have dreamed in ASCII on  a number of occasions.  But this morning the apartment maintenance people woke me up to replace a filter and I thought to myself "M.R. Siegal cancels sleep, interrupted by crap."

Fixed. There is only one acceptable curse on this forum!

... I tried to go to the stand-by screen on my cellphone using the 0-key. (Which is the space when typing.)

That's kinda funny because until I found the forums I was reading "A TOADY ONE THE GREAT PRODUCTION" as "A TODAY ON THE GREAT PRODUCTION" I thought it was bad engrish or something.

I'd like to remind everyone that half of the time I don't even know what I'm talking about. The other half of the time I only sort of know what I'm talking about.

Both times I read this, I read "crap" as CARP.

I only finally got it after reading dragnar's response.

... I picked up my old book on switching theory and logic design in order to make my dwarven calculating machine.

... I have on several occasions started saying "That's great." followed shortly there after by shouting "You're all GREAT!"

... I think of horrible slaughters of immigrants whenever elephants or carp come up in conversation.

While watching Dirty Jobs, I sat up and practically took notes when Mike went to a mushroom farm, the better to design mine with. Plump helmets, ahoy!

... actually use carp as a curse word in real life.

Oh wait, "insane" doesn't work on this forum.
Crap, can't think of an alternative.

I recently watched the LotR movies again and yelled at the screen when Legolas beat Gimli in a drinking contest.

A friend of mine was discussing his new pond and that it had some carp in it. . . as soon as he said carp I exclaimed: "CARP! but they kill Dwarves!"
Then came the long explanation. . .

That was a win? I'm sure Legolas only had one drink.

That would be as deadly to the wielder as to anyone else!  You'd sever your own arm at the first swing!  It's perfect!

I am now taking the Media Experiance program, instead of doing my second semester of animation as I failed it.  :D
