I'm guessing that "knife goes in and guts come out"

Don't guess.

Eat a live tentacle. *sigh* Host your own files so I can see what they are. Please. This "YOU SEND IT" shit is disheartening and self-defeating. Put up or shut up FFS. Really. If you don't have the bandwidth then don't presume that I do, dickwad. Please. GYOFWSOFORK.

And +1 if you can help me get rid of these hiccups. :-(

Try a spoonful of sugar that you let melt and disappear in your mouth, disturbing it as little as possible (don't chew, swallow, etc., and breathe only through your nose). Works for me sometimes.

And cut out the attack comments, or face the wrath of Knifebutt Bunny, The Destroyer.

Thanks, they went away on their own, taz. I hadn't had the 'cups in ages!

I'm just pissed at all these essentially "tiny urls" leading to files that I am supposed to guess at. There is no fun in that, just dictation. Grow some balls folks or buy some bandwidth, I say. Self link FFS. ;-) Or maybe I should just back off. That is always a possibility...

Grow some balls folks

My, my. Teste, aren't we?

FFS stands for?

For Fuck's Sake

Ah, thanks. In that case, I totally don't get what Cryptical Envelopment is on about. He's upset that he has to click once to find out it's an mp3 called 'foo' by the band 'bar'? It's a copyright issue thing?

I especially don't understand "If you don't have the bandwidth then don't presume that I do" He is really comparing downloading the song to serving to the MetaChat userbase and goddess knows who else?

Yes.

Host your own files so I can see what they are.

I'm telling you what they are. It's a song. It's about cleaning squid. This is perhaps more information than you get from the filename "cleansquid.mp3". And it's not as if you can trust the filename more than my verbal description in the post, is it? I could have called that "knifebutt.avi", but it would still be the same file! Filenames don't have to be accurate!

Don't be a tool, cryptical.

Maybe Cryptical Envelopment is hungry. Could this be a job for Anpan-man?
