A 500-post long thread devoted to French bashing and I'm nowhere to be found? What the hell was I doing?

Ted's takedown of Whaleboy (before everyone else piled on) was hilarious, though. Thugganomics! Junior G card!

More evidence of Asher's vaunted social skills.

Understanding what's being said is a key social skill.

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

I have to say Asher is correct. Also key to good social skills is the ability to .. project your thoughts clearly, meaning you can express yourself good, so your message is understood correctly. This would be essential for any IT job, because it often happens that people are not accurate enough with their needs or what they want. In other areas it could go but in CS, it doesn't. Have to be explicit. So, my experience is most people in the field have extraordinnaire social skills.

NOW being anti-social is totally different thing, which I also have noticed to be the case with many in the field .

But it has very little to do with social skills. The key is not to be well recieved, it is to be clearly recieved.

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

He said Agathon pwned himself, not that he (Asher) self-pwned Agathon.

The question is, is it possible for a Canadian to pwn anyone, including himself?

That's not what you communicated.

Thus the lack of social skills. No one knows what you're trying to say but you!
