Well, I couldn't put in examples, because it would replace them with pictures, like so: :).

Ah, but this is a metematicalesqueish forum, thus should be based on fact and things.....tsk tsk.

So you agree that :) is a picture!

I agree it should be based on fact, just not scientific fact, and not necessarily proven fact. And, by the way, what part of "North Korean Flying Frogs Attack Russia" is fact?

Yeah....I said that I did....

Well, most good facts are proven. Well, Russia exists, and there are frogs in North Korea....

You can't. Since this isn't a criminal trial, you don't have that right. The Fifth Amendment actually says,
Quote:
 
...nor shall be in any criminal case compelled to bear witness against himself...
so a) you're not in a criminal case and b ) you're not bearing witness against yourself even if you were in in court. Un-claim the fifth and tell us about the existence (or lack thereof) of flying frogs in North Korea.

It should be case sensitive. There's a difference between b and B.

You don't have a choice.

I know, but that doesn't mean it's a good thing.

I say. As does the Fifth Amendment.

To you, that is. It simplifies it otherwise.

Too bad for the fifth, and who says that you can say?

It is not simple when it equates b with B.

"Too bad for the fifth"? Do you really with to abolish the Fifth Amendment? That will not turn out well.

No one, but nor did anyone say I couldn't.

It's simpler, because it gets rid of possible mistakes when someone could put b and mean B, seeing as they are the same letter.

I really doubt I have that option in the first place...

I do then. I say you couldn't.

But it increases mistakes when it equates B) (a "b" followed by an end parenthesis) with B) .

So don't try to use it.

But you hadn't said I couldn't at the time that I did, and since ex post facto laws are prohibited, I still could have.

For the user, I was talking about the coder.

I wasn't going to abolish it, I was merely going to ignore it...

I wasn't making a law, I was merely making an....an....a something that isn't a law...
