Heh - some of the questions are hilarious, especially this question in the "Which Nigerian Spammer Are You?" quiz:

Mmmm....

( ) Donuts
( ) International war tribunal
( ) RAM
( ) Zimbabwe
( ) Spoon

For the O/S quiz I ended up as:

Here's what I got when I didn't answer which Programming language was best( how the h should I know?!):

Isn't that cute?
How about this one:

This is what I got after I went back and chose Java:

Heh, see? what do I know about programming. Glad I didn't pick HTML, or BBCode. If the above looks like a couple o' pictures to you, then you're head is on inside out.

If all you see is HTML code paste it into a .txt (notepad on PC) file and upload :O

[Baak]

I'm sure he saw the end result as properly rendered HTML, but HTML posted in the forums won't be rendered directly.

The way to see the picture is to cut the URL from the img tags, forget the size information, and then put that URL (with no quotes) between the BBCode img tags here, like so - only change the < > chars below to [ ] respectively:

<img>http://www.whatevertheimgurlis.com/anythingelseintheurl</img>

et voila Frum's img looks like so:

this can't be right:

[TS: I edited that for you - was just missing the ending 'g' on .jpg ]

Hah! I win the grand prize!



Funny, I thought for sure Baak would get windows ME.

Ha! I only use WinMe for playing Myth right now, since after 1.4 something made water display extremely slow/choppy on Win2kPro, which is my current preferred platform - although I'm an old-school Unix guy at heart.

I've got a WinXP Pro CD sitting here that I've had for 3 years or so, but I couldn't bring myself to upgrade when there hasn't been any real need. In the next couple of months I'll be going to WinXP Pro though, after I get some new hardware. Maybe by then 1.5.2 will be final...

Excuse me while I go kill myself by smashing my head against a brick wall repeatedly.

(An experience not unlike actually using windows 95)

Oddly, the 'start well, but zone out' is far too accurate. At least if one is fairly liberal and defines "start well" as anything better then how things end.

[Baak]

lol VR! Oh man...

Funny that we don't have a single repeat so far. Either that means we're a virtual melting pot or the site generates random results.

I'm curious to see the results for the rest of the OoH ...

Hey Elfoid, take the test and post yours too!
