thats awesome, and so to the point, now if only i had the energy to get my breaky, it would be inconsiderate of me to wake others for the sole purpose of feeding me at this ungodly hour
my sig is still Mechanical Animals, now we hit the dillema i like my sig and avatar matching (ie Holywood avatar Holywood sig) but i love my avatar (being Grotesque).... One will have to go

I like Lief's :Happy: (even if I think he's wasting his time discussing Matrix 3... )
'And Jesus said, "Who do you say I am?"
And they answered: You are the eschatological manifestation
of the ground of our being, the kerygma in which we found the
ultimate meaning of our interpersonal relationship."
And Jesus said, "What?" '

Where did it come from?

It's actually the scientific word for "flower", believe it or not, and it's similar to the science word "Pansy". It's kind of a joke, because it's like saying she's a pansy, or a 'wall-flower', but it's funny because it's scientific...

One of those "Oh Look At Me I'm Educated!" kind of things

I think it's funny...

Hee hee! Evil Tessar!
The P word was first used by Tessar to describe Mercutio in his sig. But then it was removed and Mercutio asked me to add it to mine. However, when M went on holiday I thought I would change it to Jeeves and see if she noticed.

AHHH!!!!!! PUT IT BACK, ALL OF YOU! (or do you want another little known word...).

If you want to be special Tessar, write:

Mercutio is erudite!!!

Maybe it's you yankee doodles, but erudite is commonly used over here.

I like my sig, of course! (does anyone know what the Latin means, and where it came from?)

I like other people's sigs, too - it's fun to read them.

I had to take out my Chesterton quote, tho - pushed me over the limit

I puzzled over that Latin for ages when you first put it in your sig, and when I gave up and put it in Google, Entmoot was the only link I could follow Where's it from?
