"In denouncing any Handles or System names, I am not implying anything
|
|
about the characters or merits of those Handles and Systems. There are
|
|
some cool people who have Stupid Handles, and there are some cool
|
|
systems with Gay names."
|
|
|
|
In other words, don't come looking for me if you were offended by
|
|
anything you read here. I'm sure you're a nice person and all that, and
|
|
an obscure t-file isn't really going to hurt your ability to get high
|
|
access, run a decent board, get 750 on the verbal SAT, get girls, etc.
|
|
etc. etc.
