All PFers are strange to me, they think science and mathematics will solve
the mystery of the universe, but i know only the elves and gnomes have all the answers

if franzbear counts, I would like to nominate him.

Strange: Marlon, and he's only getting stranger.

Mysterious: Definitely hitssquad. I'm so used to that guy posting nothing but large chunks of copied text with no injection of personality that when he makes a joke, I get a little unnerved.

loseyourname · Aug 8, 2005

Oh, and why exactly does Lisa! put an exclamation point at the end of every sentence? Doesn't that defeat the purpose of an exclamation point?

He made a joke and actually used a laughing smiley in a post recently and I did a double-take! It took me a long time just to figure out most of the content of his posts are quotes since he doesn't use quote tags! He seems to have a link for every occasion!

Did I use enough exclamation points for Lisa!'s thread?!

Wow! I just realized it! Hitsquad is probably D.B. Cooper!

One of the posters at the Lakers Ground forums posts as DB Cooper.

again ? How would you know?

You mentioned about it in another thread(who communicate...)!

marlon said:

why won't you answer my question?

Well,why do you want to know? does it make any difference in you life?

OOPs.I was trying to put you under pressure to post a photo of yours.

I'd guessed your plan. and here's your first lesson about me:

When someone trys to put me under pressure to get what s/he wants, he won't be successful.
You know sth! It's almost marlon's fault if I don't feel like posting a pic!

He was the first person who asked me to post a pic in a very impolite way!

By the way, I am asking you to do so. Am I not enough for you?

Please don't ask me again. I explained to you why I don't do it now! By the way, what do you mean by "am I not enough for you?"

yomamma, I agree with you about Franzbear! He has to be strangest because his parents are too strange! He even went to the other world and came back her again!

lmao@ venting the grump

Everyone here is strange, in there own ways. I tend to shy away from "normal" people.

I agree with Evo and would like to add that,
Life would have been very boring if each of us would have been like 'open books'!
Life is interesting because we don't know about each others!
language is helping us to know each other and communication behaviour is generating the fun!

I'm just not sure it's possible to emphasize every single sentence. Emphasis implies that the sentence being emphasized somehow stands out from the others, not simply that one has taken too much crystal meth.

They stand out from other people's sentences.

Perhaps we need to cut back on Lisa!'s caffeine consumption so she calms down and can speak without jumping around and shouting so much. These images come to mind of 4th grade girls who are talking excitedly about everything and intersperse talking with giggling. Nothing will give an adult a headache faster than being stuck in a room full of 4th grade girls, especially when they're talking about 4th grade boys, which is what they mostly talk about.

Why do I feel this was a snide comment at me?

Could you please tell where I put '!' which is strange to you? I know I use ! a lot but I do it purposely!(Oops! I did it again :blushing:

)

Perhaps it has something to do with her accent? I've noticed (on TV) that certain accents make it seem as if every statememnt is a question by raising their pitch at the end.

I'm ususally drinking tea when I'm working with computer because I get a terrible headache whenever I'm around here! Perhaps that's because Of you! You know nothing can give me a terrible headache but a noisy 13 year old boy!

Yes, the infamous 'uptalkers.' Wouldn't that necessitate a question mark, however, rather than an exclamation mark?

You put it at the end of every normal sentence. When exactly did you start doing this? I know they couldn't have allowed it in grammar school. Do you still remember?
