Poll question: Do you think it's lame when someone quotes themself in their signature?
Edited on Sun Apr-03-05 07:54 PM by LoZoccolo
I don't mean when they write a little line by themselves, I mean when they put quotes around it and put their own name after it like:

"Oasis was more popular than the Beatles in the 90s." -LoZoccolo

1. Yeah, unless you're Oscar Wilde, I'd say it's pretty lame.

2. Yes.
I'm also a bit of a stickler for not using words like "themself."

5. Yep, it's lame, and yet, your example quote was so compelling
I don't know for sure, LoZoccolo but I may need to replace Margaret Mead's quote with your Oasis quote...

such a dilemma. LOL. MKJ
