Sarcasm font

[bogan]

What petrol do you use in your bike?

The one that tastes like beans...

I reckon leave it out, without miscommunication, the internet wouldn't be as much fun.

[ducatilover]

On the flip side, with no knowledge of the sarc-er, no tone or facial expression, and often compelling evidence in front of them, the sarc-ee is often left with no option but to assume the sarc-er is the daft one. That sarc-er's don't realise this swings the daft pendulum back towards themselves......then they get angry........and post threads like this.

Seriously, it's pretty hard to pick up sarcasm from one line of text when so many people write so much rubbish and genuinely mean it. It's nigh on impossible to pick the nuggets from the nuggets if ya know what I mean.

You're a pillar of knowledge.
My nuggets are well picked, I think...fucked if I know what you mean.

or you could write in green
your welcome

Well, I could, but then people might think I'm some tree hugger Honda driver?

....what about an 'orgasm font' that could be used by someone when they finally reckon that their wank posts, have finally achieved what they set out to do...

I need no such thing, my wank gets me off all the time, obviously, have you seen my post count!

Mmm beans!
This is true!

We need one.

Also, we're lacking in "what oil should I use" and "do you wave" threads.

We need one.

Works for me.

That makes perfect sense.

And my bike uses all the oil.

I call bullshit! Maha calls our van the Toyota Rena

1L per tank of gas
Not any more though... the head/barrel are off and the rest of it's being prettied up, but that's another story for the camp fire

I do apologise, that was a very low move

We believe in the sanctity of typography and that the traditions and established standards of this craft should be upheld throughout all time. From Gutenberg’s letterpress to the digital age, type in all forms is sacred and indispensable. Type is a voice; its very qualities and characteristics communicate to readers a meaning beyond mere syntax.

Early type designing and setting was so laborious that it is a blasphemy to the history of the craft that any fool can sit down at their personal computer and design their own typeface. Technological advances have transformed typography into a tawdry triviality. The patriarchs of this profession were highly educated men. However, today the widespread heretical uses of this medium prove that even the uneducated have opportunities to desecrate this art form; therefore, destroying the historical integrity of typography.

Like the tone of a spoken voice, the characteristics of a typeface convey meaning. The design of the typeface is, in itself, its voice. Often this voice speaks louder than the text itself. Thus when designing a “Do Not Enter” sign the use of a heavy-stroked, attention-commanding font such as Impact or Arial Black is appropriate. Typesetting such a message in Comic Sans would be ludicrous. Though this is sort of misuse is frequent, it is unjustified. Clearly, Comic Sans as a voice conveys silliness, childish naivete, irreverence, and is far too casual for such a purpose. It is analogous to showing up for a black tie event in a clown costume.

We are summoning forth the proletariat around the globe to aid us in this revolution. We call on the common man to rise up in revolt against this evil of typographical ignorance. We believe in the gospel message “ban comic sans.” It shall be salvation to all who are literate. By banding together to eradicate this font from the face of the earth we strive to ensure that future generations will be liberated from this epidemic and never suffer this scourge that is the plague of our time.

I see how you've managed that works quite well.

My 300cc GN is going to pull very well and I have no hand bag

Or is that just a lie??

[Coldrider]

You gotta learn me how to be so cool



Was that factory specified $1.98 from our shop? Or replica $1.98?

nah, I think it was parallel imported, with a price adjustment.
Would explain why it was $2.35 at Makarora.

I have heard from very reliable authorites that there is a huge markup on petrol pump prices, up to 300%.

I should have offered them a 50% of the price and been prepared to walk (push my bike) away.

I heard once that the economy is a lie and there is no cake, if so, I shall substitute my own reality.

Most people who worry about sarcasm wouldn't know what it was if they fell over it.

Just like people who need smileys to communicate their intent are illiterate.

Not to mention the people who think that initial capital letters are essential in headlines (have a look at how newspapers do headlines if you need guidance), that spaces are needed before and after punctuation marks, more than one exclamation mark makes something even more of an exclamation, more than one question mark makes the question even harder, and that 16 dots is about right for an ellipsis. They should all go and help their uncle jack off a horse.
