Guest saturnmark4life Posted October 7, 2002 Report Posted October 7, 2002 right now, for some reason or other my 1/exclamation mark isn't working. I dunno when in the near future i can be arsed to fix it, so i've decided to let you, my mostly beloved smart marks to decide which otherwise functionless key i should use in it's place. some possibilities would be the €, as in PERRY SATURN~€ the %, as in THE SMITHS~% the {, as in KING OF THE WORLD~{ or even the }, as in CHEAT TO WIN~} i give you the floor. You see how hard my life as an online mark is. Help. EDIT: no wise guy i can't be bothered to paste one all the time. I'm that lazy, and this is mildly more fun.
Guest Incandenza Posted October 7, 2002 Report Posted October 7, 2002 I like "€," if only due to it not being on my Yank keyboard.
Guest areacode212 Posted October 7, 2002 Report Posted October 7, 2002 It actually takes less time to paste (CTRL-V) in a ~! then it would to type in ~}.
Guest saturnmark4life Posted October 7, 2002 Report Posted October 7, 2002 i thought the euro and percentage signs looked best, yeah. And that a good point that most people here don't have the euro, so it would be a personal touch.
Guest saturnmark4life Posted October 7, 2002 Report Posted October 7, 2002 I don't think i've EVER seen the percentage sign used on this board. I'd assume talk of gross domestic product and the like in current events would require it, but i don't really go in there. It certainly looks better with the'~'. And really, that's what i'm going to use it for, sigh. AWK~% hmm.
Guest DrTom Posted October 7, 2002 Report Posted October 7, 2002 Can't you use the character map or ASCII code to render an exclamation mark?
Guest Will Scarlet Posted October 7, 2002 Report Posted October 7, 2002 I agree that the Euro sign looks the best of all of them.
Guest Ravenbomb Posted October 7, 2002 Report Posted October 7, 2002 how about the UPSIDE DOWN EXCLAMATION POINT~¡¿
Guest saturnmark4life Posted October 8, 2002 Report Posted October 8, 2002 i've decided to use the ~%, cos it looks tidiest. So now i guess people will be asking me why for a while. oh well, THE BUTTHOLE SURFERS~%
