I can't say I have general talent in everything, but I am a hell of a linebacker, mathematitian (i know i spelled it wrong), mechanic, video game player, Nazi, racist, 'troll'(in your words), and person who writes generally confusing statements so the reader has to look at them several times and wonder 'what did he mean by that?' and then reads it 4 moer times and understands it so he begins to compile an answer but then figures that I meant something else so he goes and changes his answer and after he posts he he finds out he was write the first time and was subconsiously trying to read my thoughts to find out what I meant with my slippery ways so he changes his answer because he thought thats just the kind of thing I would do but I had actually planned on him doing that so he ended up getting the wrong answer after all, and ended up posting unintentional flame bait. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
