In which we discuss Sigs

[El_Machinae]

Ironduck: how come you've never made a sig? Heck, you've never taken a user title!

(Though I've seen you switch avatars)

I thought abortions were seen as a medical issue and as such a right for people? It strikes me as grotesque not to.

Edit - btw, of course they won't erase abortions, only visible abortions. Welcome to the shady world of the back room clinic.

It is a medical issue.
But they're harrassing the clinic till it closes anyway.
Actually, they're just erasing abortions for the poor though.
Rich folks can afford to travel a couple of hours if necessary.

I kinda like my user title as is, no need to mess with it

As for sigs, I've never had one. I just put one in my email the other day for the first time.. here it is:

Har du sett min villa
min Villa Villekulla-villa
vill å vill du veta
varför villan heter så?

 

[Pyrite]

What does it mean?

This is quite topic-drifty - but I remember hearing about a bill which would make it illegal to transport minors out-of-state for getting abortions.

If people want to discuss this issue, please make a separate thread.

Ironduck: Lindgren?

 

[ironduck]

Ironduck: Lindgren?

Touché - though I bet you googled it

Pyrite, it's from the Pippi Longstocking song..

Have you seen my villa
My villa-villekulla villa
Do oh do you wanna know
Why my villa is called so?

 

[the mormegil]

I didn't know what to put in my sig but I felt lonely without one so I just put that crap below...

 

[Dionysius]

mormegil; look up "quotes" on google. plenty to chose from.

 

[Turner]

www.coolsig.com has some good stuff. At least, they did. I haven't been there in a while.

I think it's a brilliant sig.

It's short and unique. I say keep it that way.

 

[Abaddon]

Mine still kicks ass - now with new quotes

 

[El_Machinae]

MobBoss: what's your opinion on the nonconformist quotation in your signature? I recall the conversation, but what message do you intend with portraying that part of the conversation?

Leatherneck: Doesn't your sig encourage people to (even more) think of the Hezbollah problem as a religious problem (i.e., encouraging Christian fanaticism?)
Edit: well, Google is alive with this quotation, though I couldn't find an actual source. I'm surprised he actually said something like this (if he did). That's pretty scarey.

 

[ironduck]

Check out my first ever signature here - pretty happy with it

 

[El_Machinae]

I think Sophie called a liberal "anyone who is to the left of you"

Trust you to finally put nudity in your quotation. What did you say to rile him up so?

 

[ironduck]

Yeah, I told Sophie it was the best definition I've ever heard

I didn't say anything other than what I've said a bunch of times.. I don't see why we should legislate for what people should wear in public. If the majority decides then where do we draw the line? Should everyone wear burkas?

The human body is what it is. I will never understand people being offended by it, don't they have one of their own?

edit - oh and it was in the breastfeeding thread

 

[Follow Gandhi]

I just had to use Gandhi quotes, they're good ones. There's some other stuff there to that's interesting, but it's mainly about Gandhi.

MobBoss: what's your opinion on the nonconformist quotation in your signature? I recall the conversation, but what message do you intend with portraying that part of the conversation?

I think it was a most dispicable thing to say. That apparently when bad things happen, they should only happen to soldiers since they are responsible for everything bad that ever happens. As if soldiers are not people too, with families and wives and kids as well. Total crap.

The message I am sending with it, is that even people opposed to war will dehumanize their opponents in order to morally justify the things they say. In doing so, it makes them no better than the people they would oppose.

 

[Eran of Arcadia]

I am just thrilled TLC put a quote from me in his sig. Recognition!

And I have added a few lines to my sig recently, as well as a bunch of links. Now I am helping to spread the truth about the evil influence of Dungeons and Dragons!

 

[CaptainF]

My signature is spawned by my undying love for Senator Blutarsky, who is by all accounts a true politician.

 

[Perfection]

My sig has a secret message!
