You did good helping him UT.

Dat you are a prime example of someone shooting with a blindfold on.

Out of all the people to try to be an assertive troll to you couldn't find a nicer person than Pete.


People try to help you say nada. People are jerks and you give them smiley faces. People are fun loving and you get your guts up and post the lame smiley.

I need that picard emoticon right about now.

... If you don't get it, then why do you say it is lame? It might be a really cool jest; but one which draws on a cultural reference you don't have. That's not 'lame' that's just something you don't understand.

I don't get it either, btw. But I just assume that I am missing whatever cultural reference he's drawing on.

Might have been too obscure. The title of the thread reminded me of the Huey Lewis tune I Want a New Drug.

Ahh. I have a vague recollection of that song. I still don't see how it relates to my mouse sitiation.

I need a new mouse.
I want a new drug.

Hmmm. I didn't think it was going to be that obscure. Did anyone get it?

I got it after I thought about it for a moment, and I enjoyed it. Sucks to have to explain a joke, doesn't it? Makes you wish you hadn't tried at all.

Actually, I agree, but I was never a Huey fan, so I didn't get the reference.

If someone tells a reference joke, the recipient of the joke has to be familiar with what's being referenced.
