You guys have WAY too much time on your hands. Why don't you have social
relationships or something???

It passes time at a boring job. Newsgroups are a great alternative to 
TPS reports.

<sarcasm>
Wow - I see the light now !!

All the time I've been creating, posting, and admiring ASCII pictures, I
COULD have spent TELLING PEOPLE THEY HAVE NO LIFE!!!
</sarcasm>

For [insert name of preferred deity]'s sake, it's a hobby; at least we're
not selling guns and crack on street corners or something.  We enjoy doing
it.  Other people enjoy looking at it.  If you don't fit into this category,
then kindly piss off.

Furthermore, I do have social relationships.  I am married, with one
step-son.  I work in a busy callcentre providing IT support to an
international network and IT solutions provider (BT Global Services).  From
working here, I have met and frequently socially interact with a number of
friends of all ages and from all walks of life.  I play drums in a big band
jazz group, practising every Tuesday night.

Just because I spend a bit of time doing something I LIKE doing but which
you obviously think is below your standards, doesn't mean to say that I'm
socially derelict/stupid/boring/illiterate/[insert preferred insult here].

Like I said - if you don't like it, then piss off.

Heh!  That's hilarious, coming from some drongo at the
University of Queensland.  Whatta yer studyin' there,
mate...Beer-Drinking 101?

Tell yer what, Sport: a "social relationship" is -NOT-
necessarily defined as drinkin' beer in a pub with a
bunch of other galahs, and bonking big-bummed Aussie
sheilas with room-temperature I.Q.s.

Strewth!  Bloody Queenslanders.  Got tickets on'emselves,
that mob.  Yer gotta squash'em.

Speak for yourself. For instance I send about 100 to 200 thousand junk
faxs a day.  I find that it helps me inject a nice amount of hate into
the world on a daily bases.   And for fun I also come in here and
offer up pr0n and butterflies in ASCII-Vision(tm).

Really?  Very cool.  The only BBJ I have is Artie Shaw's "Self
Portrait".  Which I guess is about as good as it gets.

The confusion is excusable since -metre- is anything but an original
English word. Furthurmore I sincerly doubt England already used the
metric system when you guys were colonized.
