But I can't really take all that much credit. Especially because I can't tell if your reply was supposed to have a road sign that says "<sarcasm>" or one that says "<ng>" or one that says "<g>" or one that says "<fork in the road>" or "<STOP>" or one that says "<merge>" ... or one that says, "<No Left Turn>"... (That one is used a lot at the Right Wing Extremist thread...) or one that says, ""<No Right On Red>" (popular on the Left Wing Porch...) or one that says "<Exit Closed>"... (That's a popular one over at the SI thread called "The Constipated Investors Forum"...) <rimshot!> Anyhow, I'm not really all that perceptive... Another thing that confuses me is your time stamp on the post I'm replying to. It says <5:18AM>. I can't figure out why you get up so early on a Sunday... Don't you ever sleep in? -FiveManElectricalBand'sSignAnd the sign said "Long haired freaky people need not apply" So I tucked my hair up under my hat and I went in to ask him why He said, "You look like a fine upstanding young man, I think you'll do." So I took off my hat, I said "Imagine that, huh, me working for you." Oh, sign, sign everywhere a sign Blocking up the scenery, breaking my mind Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign And the sign said "Anybody caught trespassing will be shot on sight" So I jumped on the fence and I yelled at the house, "Hey, what gives you the right To put up a fence to keep me out or to keep Mother Nature in If God was here he'd tell you to your face, Man you're some kind of sinner." Hey you, mister, can't you read? You've got to have a shirt and tie to get a seat You can't even watch, no, you can't eat, You ain't supposed to be here The sign said you've got to have a membership card to get inside And the said "Everybody welcome, come in and kneal down to pray" But when the passed around a plate at the end of it all, I didn't have a penny to pay So I got me a pen and a paper and I made up my own little sign It said "Thank you, Lord, for thinking about me, I'm alive and doing fine."
