Signatures on Tiny Core Linux Forum

(1/5) > >>

softwaregurl:
So, this is my reasoning for starting this thread.  I see signatures on forums that range from profound to just flat rolling on the floor laughing funny, but I rarely see anyone comment on them (I guess that's because it would be off topic).  I think it is worth discussing how one came to use a signature, how others perceive it, and how others signatures have been applicable to or influenced your life.

I will get the ball rolling.

my own:

This is just a funny.  It's a play on a TV ad "I've fallen and I can't get up!" which was played on by CBer's "I've fallen and I can't reach my mic!"

So befitting of Roberts' minimalist nature.  Three words that speak infinity.

Curaga:
--- Quote ---The only barriers that can stop you are the ones you create yourself.

So true!  Even compiling Apache for Tiny Core Linux, once I got over the idea it would be hard, it was almost too easy.

tobiaus:
actually i had a poke at curaga's sig recently, even if there is much truth to it.

i prefer one of linus's laws (indeed it may have only been a joke that it was linus's law, because traditionally it's about debugging) that says that an option doesn't exist until there's a gui to turn it on and off. i believe the real truth exists somewhere between the two maxims, and there are more interesting disagreements about where it is than which of these is true.

shr:
New guy here.  I saw Robert's interview on Distro Watch and decided to check out TCL.  I often use Perlisisms for my sig.  This is a favorite.

I have decided to go back to a funny.

My skull is so thick it reaches to the center of my head!

Of course, many a truth has been said in jest.

I resemble that remark, but being machine and program restricts human social life LOL.
