lol, I hadn't even noticed that.  My guess is:

Re Turn Of Jedi

(EDITED OUT for bad taste).

Wow.  It goes more than "a little too far."  I'd suggest another edit to your post.

A forum etiquette unlike any I've seen before. Wow.

It's the aloofness that comes with familiarity.  Those of us that have been here longer know each other's attitudes and senses of humor, so it's easier for us to tell when someone is being purposely insulting and when it's just an obtuse attempt at levity.  You've only got 60 posts in where Solo, Frink, me and others have hundreds, and plenty of others have thousands.  Thicken up your skin and try to find patterns in people's posts over time rather than judging individual comments.

My outlook on life - we’re all on the Hindenburg anyway…no point fighting over the window seat.

I know what you're saying Ziz, but I side with BmB on this one.  Solo's comment was way over the line, regardless of how long any of us have been here.  Even though I knew he was just making a joke, I still found it very insulting.  However...

Too late. You've already quoted me.

Too much Family Guy lately

DS, I edited the quote to reflect your change of heart.

I never watch Family Guy.  Please tell me that's not the humor they use.

Certain people's sense of humor - and I include myself in this - isn't exactly mainstream...it takes some thought to figure out where they're coming from or going to.

Yep, thats me. I have a warped scence of an obtuse attempt at levity. I wont even attempt saying that in the pub tonight though, it would just go all so very very wrong if i attempted it...

And no one would have a clue what i was talkin about anyhowz....same as usual really.
