Lol... Reminded me of something… http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg.../gc-jester.gif

When I was younger, me and my band of tattered remnants had a saying that was directed at fully fledged virgins, something like: “thanks, ye party breakers - for nothing” http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...s/gc-smile.gif

Why “thanks, dessa” at all? Why not “you welcome”? Or can I please have some salt?

Yeah, no offense but why do you need to thank automatically? It sounds silly to me. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...icons/flat.gif

actually, when you do it like this: 'thanks, dessa' ... you are thanking yourself. that's always confused me a bit :)

the proper way would be:

thanks,

dessa

Thanking the others for reading your post really seems a little...automated. Still, i don't blame you for this Dessa as many people don't read all the other posts before posting their own and it really gives me an unpleasant feeling when i suspect that noone has read my post. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ons/tongue.gif

As an English teacher and editor, I have always been slightly bothered by your tag line. The meaning is great, but the punctuation doesn't fit your purpose.

Thanks, dessa means that you are thanking someone named dessa. Thanks. dessa makes more sense. So I chose the two-line sig.

Thanks
dessa

Aren't English teachers annoying?

Not as annoying as danish teachers, trust me, I've had both.

English teachers only become annoying when they begin to babble on about -ing form and (english) punctuation which is, for a dane, insane and impossible to understand...

gah
