Yes, yes I am.

That's no twin...he's got muscles...

Taylor514ce · 07-07-2008, 02:11 PM

Made at the same time? Same factory? I reject your definition of twin. More to the point, so does he.

Welcome back Taylor, we missed you or as ZP said somewhere else, "Tu me manques".

Sorry about the tense. I can copy & paste French but can't conjugate.

I have this theory that, staying within the character limit (of perhaps 255 chars), I can get the most lines of karma comments. To date, we have had at most eight lines of comments (no 15 lines of all repeats isn't a comment!), but I think I can get NINE!

Let me try this theory out, and I'll report back here with the results. ZP get ready...

Yep, it worked. ZP now has a NINE line karma comment.

The "Theory" was to use a comment that caused the text to wrap at the end of the line, prematurely, so as to accomodate a long word. The karma comment was only 250 characters, so that could be the character limit on karma comments.

Thanks to ZP for all her assistance in finding these things out! (...Inquiring minds wanted to know...)

BTW, the karma comment was (without the line breaks):

Interesting! Now I have this
Interesting! theory where I
Interesting! insert near the
Interesting! end of the line
Interesting! "Interesting!"
Interesting! which will cause
Interesting! the text to wrap
Interesting! around instead
of being hyphenated

Anyone going to try for TEN lines?

Yeah, they're twins -- didn't you see the flick about Ahhnold and Danny DeVito being twins? Same deal.

pshrynk · 07-07-2008, 06:12 PM

So... Taylor is a side effect?

badgoodDeb · 07-07-2008, 06:27 PM

Ummm ... I dunno. Is that what DeVito was in the movie? No, *I* didn't actually see it. :sheepish grin:
