Consider a name change
« on: April 09, 2007, 08:46:36 pm »
x86 should be renamed "Spelling Nazi's".  We're (mainly just a few of us) are always correcting spelling mistakes of other people. :P

I always thought that x86 should be named something along the lines of "shittingdicknipples", or something equally immature.

Well, I AM an editor.

But it should be "Nazis," and you said "are" twice ("We're (...) are always").

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.

I think we should be renamed to "x86/64".

Re-word much?  I don't know if it was intentional, but lmfao!

Either way, I wasn't serious. :P
