The Movies! and jerks
We're going to the movies! My brother and me, to see Signs tomorrow, well today now. I haven't been in a few months and I wanted to see this one when it came out in August. I love the movies, something about sitting in a big dark theatre with the big screen and faces 30 feet tall, there's nothing like it at home.
Change of topic: Whaddya wanna bet that I get flamed by the idiot who keeps posting pics to a listowner technical help list? He started doing these massive crosspostings on 9/11. I let three of them (with large multiple attachments) go past and finally I asked the listowner on list *politely* if this was acceptable. The listowner said it really wasn't, that the list was for technical stuff, announcements about problems with the mailing lists or questions about them, not general chat. The idiot replied to my post that he sent them by mistake (three times? yeah right) and that maybe *I* really needed them.
Now he's started again, posting another pic to the list tonight along with another bunch of lists and I *politely* asked him not to do that again, pointing out that it is off topic and not appropriate and that some list members have problems with attachments and asking that he be considerate of them. I'm sure he'll flame me, he probably figures I'm some prude who doesn't like pics of naked men (which is what he posted). Hah! He probably doesn't know that I run slash archives all over the place.
