I'm bored... Of all threads to do it in - this one seems the most appropriate. Nothing funnier than seeing pages and pages of text quoting that 'I win'... maybe I do it to feel like a winner in my own mind.    ;)

Yeah but its just clogging the page and making reading this thread difficult, you can win in a much better way than perpetually copy pasting the same thing. Is there really a need to make reading my thread so difficult?

Hey... you started a thread in which the last post wins - you didn't declare any rules and so far I'm the only one who people have quoted me winning. You started the thread, I'm just playing along.    ;D

No offense guys - but I forever eternally win... Check out the date stamp on the quote. And this I did without copy-pasting... I used the quote function instead and edited it.

 ;)

BEAT THAT!!!    ;D

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And just to clarify, these were the only rules stated at the time I created this post.

**** RULES *****
Copy pasting any part of your response is cheating and you automatically lose.

Next time... try to think in 4-dimensions.
