Ooops.

You didn't see that.

Drive through.

Who was that masked man?

Haven't you tried Ben'n'Jerrys Phish Food?

It's fabby. Chocolate ice cream with Marshmallows and little chocolate fish.

And mostly kosher, too.

Well...the masked man had a point... but...

We just want to be accepted, you know? And you guys think rejection is just...better. I....

::sniff::

I didn't mean to make you mad... I just feel so hurt...inside...that I have to have the SAME fish as everyone else...

It's the conformity, and then, with the blue fish, the inferiority... and that's why I had to fight back with my own fish production company. I didn't want to upset anyone... Can't we all just get along???

Awww, don't worry Fenchurch. We love you. We know how it is to have Shim come around with his fish. You did a wonderful thing, being a revolutionary, fighting to free us from fish oppression through the creation of cool fish. And our fish are way cooler than Shim's now. Mwahahahaha!!! We are the fishy folk.

I can't believe they're trying to kick us nice little researchers, with our nice little fish, out. Sheesh!

I still wanna try that ice cream.

Have I missed something important, their trying to kick us out! Now that's just not cricket..... Leave us, and our fish, in peace, or, alternatively, give us a filter to change all our fishies into individuals, like ourselves.....

I...I guess you're right, Jedi. I just get a little upset when he comes around to taunt...I'm sorry, everyone...I'm sorry.

A clear case of piscine envy if ever I saw one.

Everyone just cool down...and have a fish

That's okay, I have my OWN one now. heh heh heh.

Well, it was worth a go

If you thought the fish was bad, check you out Shim's fly collection.

?

Yes, well, it does have a certain ring to it. Maybe not.

only you can do the blue fishie, eh? you might want to check out the bottom of my page (U47404). hope you aren't too PO'd by that. a consolation though: i haven't got the damn thing to work in forums or journals. and i didn't get it to work in the first place; it was nicky.

Well, since anyone can put any IMG tag they want into their homepages, it's not difficult to use any of our graphics there - the whole point of Shim's blue fish is that only he can use it in forums. As you will have discovered.

yeah. does anyone know a shortcut thing for that fish? i mean like the > < > thing being . is there one for Shim's fishie?

Hello? McFly?

I really don't understand why people are having so much trouble getting their heads around the remarkably simple fact THAT NOBODY ELSE CAN USE THE BLUE FISH IN THE FORUMS.

sure you don't want to give us a hint?

*sigh*

It can't be done. The code which displays the forum postings converts the > < > combination into an IMG tag. For everyone else, it displays an orange fish, but if the post comes from Shim it displays a blue fish.

Shim types in exactly the same thing as everybody else.

So you can't do it. Really.

Even I can't - - see?
