Dear Mr. Underdog,

Here is some advice. When you join snarkpit, just lurk for awhile. Don't post and get annoying. So far it's been okay, but soon enough, you'll get called n00b and start a big fight and it'll suck. After you've lurked for long enough, you will be abl to make topics that ppl post in just because you've been around a bit.

Your Pal,

The Post and Poll Nazi

Been lurking almost 9 months. You think a year will suffice?

Seems to me that the most verbal among us actually have the least to say. I apparently am not the only one whom opens his mouth with his brain stuck in neutral.

That said, if the ones who need to keep their mouths shut did so, it would be awfully quiet here abouts.

I wonder, is it me or Memorex?

and, Mr Nickel, I do not fight so it would be a bit one sided if the attempt were made.

But, Underdog, lurking is so FUN! 9 months should be WELL long enough. I started right up when i became a member and I just fought with VAsh and Gwil and Yak_fighter all the time. BTW where IS yak? i miss him. he was funny.

The day I found the site, I registered and started posting, no hesitation. Lurking is no fun, if you go right in and don't fit, then it was never meant to be.

I started posting even before I knew about the site! In your face Toast.

Made, dont over think stuff like this. Most of the time, people will read 1/3 of the way threw and comment on something, skipping over your thought. Though, I was going to post on that becuase I did mention it in my post.

I find mid west accents to be the worst, its almost like a whine to me. Southern can be ok when it flows, but when its choppy its just horible. Black southerners do it best imo, they drop any letters or sounds that pervent flow.

The girl from silence of the lamps had a very... strange accent, it was almost hard to listen to.

Jodie Foster. Is it that hard to remember? And she did a much better job on the accent then Julianne Moore (who took over the character in Hannibal)


Blame it on Microsoft, God does.

Of course it was Jodie Foster, I omitted it since the movie is probably older than most members here and is not important to the topic no matter. She doesn't talk that way in real life.

and, She did an excellent job creating the accent. I also agree that after Jodie, there is no comparison. The second actress flopped.

Well... I started hanging around not when I joined, but more like.. a bit later... just been around here not more than 6 months I think <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif"> And people already know me :P (okay, not bragging)

However, in Estonia there are quite a few dialects. Such as norther-estonian dialect and southern-estonian dialect. Also, a one called Setu and Hiiu and Saare dialects. It is hardest to understand Setu dialect, though, it is very little similar to the original Estonian. Too much "?" characters <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif"> But understanding other dialects is real easy. Saare dialect just replaces ? characters with ?, so that's basically it.

You think most members here are younger then 13?

You are asking that rhetorically, right? I think most "act" 13.

No matter, Jodie Foster the actress is not part of the discussion. Unless you are a stalker, and plan on shooting the President to show your love or something. <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_lol.gif">

I think Crono was talking to me anyways.

Let me tell you a story, I once had a friend in a school class who's name I forgot, but we became closer and I didn't want to seem like an ass and ask her name. So I went on for a few weeks no knowing a person's name who I talked with almost every day. moral: I'm bad with names! sorry

I pointed it out because more then one person said, "That chick from Silence of the Lambs" when talking about the accent. One time: okay. Two times: You're using the internet! Look it up if you can't remember.

I hate that predicament DrGlass, and find myself falling into it more often than I care to. My memory in general is just horrible <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/sad.gif">

If that 'little to say' comment was aimed at me, I was trying to be funny. Doesn't connect, maybe?

Anyway... must have spoken a different language... :P

Of course........not.

Unless, there is something about you we have yet to ascertain. <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif">

I have noticed however that, humor isn't universal. Oh yeah, we all know what humor is but, we all seem to never notice when or where its used here. Look at this for example. I do not know you, you do not know me. we both use humor in replies, yet, both seem on the verge of a serious miscommunication.

I have nothing against anyone here so far, and with your assistance I would so love to keep it that way.
