That's beyond my computer knowledge I'm afraid.  I don't know much how the Internet actually works. It's like a series of tubes, right?

Well, one thing it ISN'T like is something that you just dump something on.

So, not like a truck for example?

No.  It's like a giant fucking outhouse, in which everyone shoves their asses at the same time, to bellow their opinions at each other, almost as if they had vocal cords in their colons.

That's what the fucking internet is.

I'd say the Internet is a series of buildings in a city and you haven't noticed before you're complaining about the smell in the out house :)

I noticed the lack of a search option, what's with that?

I just assumed it was more LOLFNORD5TONNESOFFLAX discordianism.
I heard it was about server load, although bloody parasitic users might be the reason?

Yeah - everytime somebody hit "search", the entire server stuttered for a second.

When two people hit search at the same time....


Fortunately, it's not really necessary to have a built-in search anymore, what with google site search working so well.  You can't search for posts by a specific author that way, but if you're looking for a particular person's post you can go to their profile and start hunting from there.

That post is like a Fiat.  Even after you fix it, it still doesn't work.

Odd you say that.  Mrs LMNO noticed the new "mini" Fiats, and was wondering if they're worth the price.

I said it would be more awesome to get a Mini Cooper, but that's just because I want to do donuts in the school parking lot.

Fiats are the automotive equivalent of Cobol.  They don't fucking work no matter how good they look, nobody can fix them, and there's no fucking documentation.

Seriously, buying a Fiat is right up there with buying an Edsel.  You ever hear of anyone stealing a Fiat?
