..... you're-a-gonna be waiting a while.

...when you get the 1,000th post in this thread.

Seems you missed then. By one metric you got 1001, by another you got 1021. Better luck next time!

When a web page randomly jumps and you get a funny look for calling it a jellypotato

Not so fast; by a third, I got 1000! So ha!

A bonus YKYBSTMTOTDWTF is noticing you're one of the top three people in the Status thread.

It's call a homage**emphasized text. Gah. Pshaw.
Also, Lovecraft himself was a horrendous butchery of Lovecraft.

The next time we discover a .css injection attack for Discourse, guess what I'm doing? In other words, sometime in the next 4.3 hours

He did fancy himself a bit too much in the end to be honest. The problem was that you had your own style that was already widely loved. Why parody someone else.It's call a homage**emphasized text. Gah. Pshaw.

Tell me about it. I was at a meeting and had no choice but to pay attention! <shudders>

For the fun of it. And because @alexwontautocompletelastnamefuckyoudiscourse is a huge Lovecraft fan. =)

... you go to the store, see a pack of chocolate "with raisins" and your first thought is: "Raisins? What raisins? Is it Discourse? I bet it's Discourse!"

I ate them all this morning. I need more raisins!

On a similar note, I once worked up a recipe which had Special B as almost 10% of the grain bill. I'm a little afraid to try brewing it...

Because the plural is oxen?

That would mean you're not spending enough time here.

Oh crap, you're right!

There are no correct topics on WTDWTF. Everything posted here is TRWTF.

Except blakeyrat. Blakeyrat is always correct and not TRWTF.

The T2 layout lets you type the zero-width non-joiner by pressing Alt Gr.

US QWERTY lets you type a backslash with \.

I didn't put in the raw soft-hyphen character, btw.
I put in the raw zero width space.PS: screw you, Discourse. First you give me a Bad Gateway error, then you complain it's too similar to what I just posted, then I refresh the page a bunch of times and my post didn't go through.
