OK, OK, OK, OK, OK,

Let's stop this nonsense, it is getting kind of silly. 
this whole thread started because I found some humor
in the fact that someone accidentally followed up to an
article about looking for an apartment with a post
selling shoes. I thought this was kind of humorous, and
thought I would start a thread attempting to correlate 
shoes and apartment. OBVIOUSLY this was a little too complicated.
In the process of starting the thread, the evil god of XRN
appended my signature twice to my post. This is what is
known as a BUG. I am sure everyone has heard of this before.

Everyone except our friend Danno. He immediately flammed me
for this mistake that was beyond my control. I being the sarcastic
person that I am posted this silly note about how I just graduated
from high school, and was stupid (not meant to be a slam on HS students).
Anyway, too many people (except my friends) did not see this
humor. Larry, a friend of me flamed me to be funny as well. But
his post was taken seriously too.

Here is the scoop. Larry and I are graduate students in Computer Science
here at CSU, and were just trying to have a little fun. Since 
most of you did not understand this, here are two words you should know:

1. hu.mor or hu.mour \'hyu:-m*r, 'yu:-\ n [ME humour, fr. MF humeur, fr. ML 
   & L; ML humor, fr. L, moist] chiefly Brit ure; akin to ON vo:kr damp, L 
   hume-re to be moist, Gk hygros wet 1a: a normal functioning fluid or 
   semifluid of the body 1b: a secretion that is an excitant of activity in 
   medieval physiology  2a: a fluid or juice of an animal or plant; specif : 
   one of the four fluids entering into the constitution of the body and 
   determining by their relative proportions a person's health and temperament 
   2b: HABIT, TEMPERAMENT 2c: temporary state of mind 2d: a sudden, 
   unpredictable, or unreasoning inclination : WHIM 3a: that quality which 
   appeals to a sense of the ludicrous or absurdly incongruous 3b: the mental 
   faculty of discovering, expressing, or appreciating the ludicrous or 
   absurdly incongruous 3c: something that is or is designed to be comical or 
   amusing : out of sorts - out of humor 

1. sar.casm \'sa:r-.kaz-*m\ \sa:r-'kas-tik\ \-ti-k(*-)le-\ n [F sarcasme, fr. 
   LL sarcasmos, fr. Gk sarkasmos, fr. sarka]zein to tear flesh, bite the lips 
   in rage, sneer, fr. sark-, sarx flesh; akin to Av thwar*s to cut 1: a 
   cutting, hostile, or contemptuous remark : GIBE 2: the use of caustic or 
   ironic language - sar.cas.tic aj

Now, can't we all just get along.
