    There should be a legal limit on first posters...

    dude! why are you all anonymous and shit! what you did to my post is awesome. I actually had originally written a more serious longer post (that would have probably also been +5), but I said "fuck all" and wrote that in like 10 seconds. Says the same thing, less elegant.

    You rule.
