Ah, poetry. More than good enough for our exalted standards, too. Mind you, that's for certain values of exalted; but still good enough. So please allow me to present you with this slightly used fourth wall breach-o-matic. It might come in useful in case you ever want to make an editorial aside to the audience, or simply need a quick getaway. Use it in good health. Thank you for the fourth wall breach-o-matic! I've needed one in the past! I shall keep it next to my computer in case a need comes up.

The next recent was a picture from 2012. Well, I'm assuming it's from 2012. AH, I remember seeing that video a long time ago! He's no Comic Book Guy

Hmmmm, can't help myself. Are you from Europe, or the US West Coast? (You don't have to answer that, lol.) edit: Nevermind. If I really wanted to know, I could look at your 'o' vs. 'ou' usage, among other things. I don't know why you make me feel so stalkish. Sorry 'bout that! *grabs a website text parser*

Abusing my Mod powers--which if you got them, why not? Neither of your choices are correct Spirantz. Though I will say that if you use the speed of light (in a vacuum), you two are only about 3.4 ms apart.

I may be wrong (and often am), but a location of access only says so much! And can often fib, too. Where am I now? randomlanguage is lucky that I don't want to do the math! He can sleep easy tonight under your watchful eye.

True, they can "fib" since they don't tell exactly where you are, but merely where the request came from. Though when the bulk of them including your previous post come from the same area, you tend to assume that is where they are from. Having just said that... You last post says you are 48.6 ms by light from randomlanguage. Which is pretty good time considering that the posts are about nine hours apart and it should of taken about 16 hours flying by commercial airline nonstop to get there.

Not that I'm knockign on this modern miracle of man-made flight.
