I have one hell of a nasty temper. 
I never used it before today, so I didn't know. I used it on two of my best friends... 
That isn't how these things are meant to be done, I'm quite sure.
At least I did it via email. That would be the bright side. It's so bright it makes me 
.
I startled me. 
Another Learning Experience. How nice.

I brought stuff to make burritos to work for lunch today. The tortillas dried out in the fridge, and fell apart when I tried to fold them. I had no salsa. I had to scrounge for soda change, because the machine wouldn't take my dollar. And yet, this was the best moment of my day at work. This has left me with two life-altering conclusions:
My girlfriend makes good burritos.
I need a new job.

it's more fun than lying on broken glass while being kicked to a bloody pulp by fascists in steel-tipped boots.

Do you realy regard that as an adult way to behave?
If so, no wonder researchers are leaving in droves.
I wonder how long it will be before the bbc complains about it

Peta Posted Jul 14, 2001
Um, Xyroth. I was actually referring to the fact that I'd sorted out post 71. The continuous lines of XXX's didn't wrap, and they made the forum go to about 2 feet wide. I edited the post and put in a few line breaks which made the post wrap, which was just what Arpeggio *asked* me to do in this posting. http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/F63567?thread=127518 Hence, 'that's better, much cleaner'. I was just being helpful, as requested.

fair enough, but in light of the way that she was chucked off, it read as "you posted something someone translated into something I don't like, so I got rid of you", which definately would not be you "doing your job".
As regards the posts wrapping, this has been a persistant problem for months, and are there any plans in the next code revision to fix this once and for all?
ps I too think that the "translation" of lekz post is hatefull, ('s peta), but I don't actually see that translation in the original XXXX post. Is there any way that we can have a page which details the steps used to produce the translation, so that we can critique the methodology for wishfull thinking and bad design?

Good grief!
How much time did this anonymous person waste trying to 'translate' that post, for goodness sake 
(whose dyslexia means she has to translate ALL the posts, and couldn't see aught wrang wi' dat)
