My Sigs
My Sigs
I wanted to know your opinion on my sig.
I change it every few days, except for the stationary 'Veni, Vidi, Vici'.
My personal opinion is that I like seeing new stuff and interesting/amusing quotes, and that my 'Veni...' is one of my identifying marks.

I like your sig. Always something amusing to read 
If I asked, would you answer? Its your problem. Its a deep, deep problem. I have no way to ask about that... I have no elegant way of stepping into your heart without tracking in filth. So I will wait. Someday, when you want to tell me, tell me then. -Bleach

@Morlock, I actually quite like the last quote on your list, sounds like something Oscar Wilde would have said

Thanx, although you might wanna clarify exactly which one it is, because, as I change them every few days, next week your post won't make any sence.Originally posted by dragon wench

Has anyone else noticed how formulaic and unimaginative old Oscar's quotes are? It's very simple...all you need to do is say something (any subject, preferably with a vague meter to it), and then say the exact opposite afterwards. And there you have it, a Wilde quote!Originally posted by dragon wench

For example:
Thinking of intelligent things to post is difficult, however, what is truly difficult is not thinking of intelligent things to post.
Nice, eh?

Nope, it works. "Shallowness is the only refuge of the serious." I believe we were discussing this the other day, with reference to the debating tactics of certain groups of society, some of whom are present here at GB and so shall be nameless so as to avoid offending him...erm, them?Originally posted by Georgi
@Frogus I disagree![]()

Bah, the difference being that the Wilde quote is clever, whereas Frogus' example is not.Originally posted by Ode to a Grasshopper
Nope, it works.

No, but the two of us are.
