Carpe DM
« on: May 09, 2007, 02:15:18 pm »
"Carpe DM" is my new signature. It's funny. Discuss.

It came very, very close to replacing the text under my avatar. Very close.

I'm guessing Carpe is some other language for "seize?"

Yeah, between you all you hit both points.

Carpe Diem is pronounced exactly the same, and means "seize the day", which can also mean "Seize the DM".

So it's a pun, and a funny line at the same time. :)

I guess I'm not too surprised, but I've heard it a lot myself. (Though, I prefer "Carpe Noctum", since who cares about the day? ;) ) And, I believe it's Latin?

Yea, it's latin. Stupid teacher drilled that damn phrase into my head.
One must ask oneself: "do I will trolling to become a universal law?" And then when one realizes "yes, I do will it to be such," one feels completely justified.

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

well, the flexing the guns was regarding iago's "what is strong?"

Then the opinion part was just me saying that I disagree that carpe DM is funny.  The following "dead" part is because my original post had lost impact because it'd been drawn out so long.
And now, it is even further gone/dead/buried.

Incidentally, if anybody doesn't know what either "carpe diem" or "dm" means, then they wouldn't have found it funny. Anybody who was well experienced with both phrases would enjoy it. That's pretty much how this joke pans out.

But I still don't think that personally considering it funny is "strong".

It simply seemed to me that lately, within... 24 hours of that post, all of your posts had made me think "FUCK!"

K, woot. I always get that and The Emperor's Club mixed up for some reason, always afraid I'm going to say the wrong one. I haven't seen DPS in such a long time, though. I should rent it. ^^

Yeah. I told Sidoh a joke to see how he'd react, added a "Don't tell anyone!" to make it look authentic, and apparently he told everyone and you all believed it. I laughed. :)

Kaleeko and I are still friends, of course, and I talk to her pretty often. I still hit on her a lot from force of habit, but I never really go out of my way anymore.

And besides, what does any of that have to do with me making a pun? :P
