I was mostly interested to see in the first image that Fraa Jonathan was apparently entering a liaison with (presumably Suur) Mia. They should be sure to register it with their Concent, unless I suppose it's a Tivian liaison.

That's nothing. It got this song stuck in my head: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQu71l1WQ3g

Bank holidays?

True geeks wouldn't have had anybody to send that to.

LOL, I thought it was a pretty cool idea myself. I like geek humor.

The funny thing is that the comment title also does the < conversion.
Incidentally, the article's title reminded me of my newbie internet days, when I didn't know what that =) thing was. Everyone seemed to type it in posts or emails, but I didn't get it; funnily I did get :) since its first appearance.
When I finally got what =) was, it was because someone did it in ASCII art, and I just rotated the screen 90 degrees. =)

What's with all the spam?

"Til" is not swedish, it's danish or norwegian, and in both those languages, from is "fra".

The real true geeks have no love/women except their 1 TB pr0n collection and the newest Hardware...

Sorry, XKCD already showed what Real Geeks would do -- they'd use a butterfly.

True geeks wouldn't have a girlfriend to send it to.

Hiring a proofreader might not have fixed Sarah's textbook. These errors could have been introduced after the first proof. Certainly the font problem which screwed up the "it" ligature could easily have been introduced at pre-press. Of course someone should have checked before the final printing run.

A true geek would have no girlfriend

Wow. Anathem

Yep, bank holidays. Wikipedia is your friend.
I'm interested to see that HSBC seem to think that Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year's Day aren't bank holidays...
Admin
Wow, I actually decided to read through.
Anyway, Eric, that wasn't really a WTF, since the message was in Danish, which is similar to but different from Swedish, and there 'fra' means 'from'. No å in that word.
And by the way, the Swedish o is å? I don't believe that's true. Historically, å was written as aa in Danish until 1949. (I suppose similar things are true for Swedish, although I stand to be corrected.)

Oh my goodness, I have no idea why, but that smiley faced unsuccessful install has got me in hysteria, it's just... very funny to me, especially that little bouncy guys expression, and the dead planned manner of explanation of failure... just excellent!
Admin

Admin
Or even represent that string as 0x303031313131303030303131303031310D0A or 0x31313030313130303030313131313030.

Update from the distant future - <3 actually works now. I got a couple presents delivered with a gift-tag with nothing but "<3" in the center.
