Brevity by Dan Thompson for January 20, 2012

He’d give her a piece of his mind, but he lacks resolution.

Byte Me!

Stay away from her Mario — she’s only playing you.

Baldy — Good to see you around here again!

Quickly…. from yesterday…. thanks again Col C…. that was a lot of work.

I forgot to say thanks for pointing out that the little copy of my avatar was a link.

I had missed the archer, and therefore didn’t understand your (flattering, btw) comment, the first time around.

And Larry, did you mean strikeout?

Cos that is quite easily done here …. so easily I’m always doing it accidentally.

All you do is put a hyphen touching each end of the text you want stricken.

Sometimes when I’m just using hyphens as hyphens, the spaces get ignored and my text gets lined out, so I try to remember to pad them with extra spaces.

What do you expect with nuts the size of quarters?

Good to see so many here. Did you hear about Richard Thompson having to take some weeks off for treatment on his Parkinson’s? I hope he will be back; I would miss the clever drawing in Cul-de-Sac. And the Susan tribute was fun!

needs further definition

Ah, you may be 8 bits, but you are still a bit square.

The naughty bits?

huh?

Two bitsFour bitsSix bitsA dollar.All for Guy & Rodd & DanStand up and holler. -SusanS-, And yet the actual HTML tags for strikeout text do nothing here. One wacky stylesheet. Oh, and I know I typed them correctly; I couldn’t have deleted the message where it didn’t work ’cause of the browser/bad tags issue.

Replacing a shorter and somewhat ambiguous comment about my result above….I got that result on SusanS’ name by putting that directly between the HTML tags with no spaces between the tags and the hyphens. Trying again with spaces , which is awkward if it works because you may not want spaces where you need them if this works.

He looks like he’s made out of Legos!

You say 8-bit, I say 256 possibilities!

Isn’t he 64 bit now? He should be. Two-bit would be a huge insult!

awesome artwork

If Mario is talking to Luigi about PRINCESS PEACH then this is more suited for off the mark
