      WTF are you trying to do?!?! Induce civilisation in the OT forum :confused: .

      HeySal is one of the wisest, wittiest people to ever grace this forum.

      (If one insult can induce civilisation, one complement must surely reverse things back to normal. And its in bold, so that should stop anyone else getting any ideas about bringing this "civilisation" nonsense in here. Carry on everyone.)

      Yes, I'm stupid.

      (By insulting myself, I make myself more civilized.)
