(This post is from my old, old, super old site. My views have changed over the years, hopefully my writing has improved, and there is now more than a handful of folks reading my site. Enjoy.)
I asked my email-pal: "UNIX or Windoze?".
He replied "UNIX".
I said "Ah...me too!".
I asked my email-pal: "Linux or AIX?".
He said "Linux, of course".
I said "Me too".
I asked him: "Emacs or vi".
He replied "Emacs".
I said "Me too. Small world."
I asked him: "GNU Emacs or XEmacs?",
and he said "GNU Emacs".
I said "oh, me too."
I asked him "GNU Emacs 19 or GNU Emacs 20"?
and he said "GNU Emacs 19".
I said "oh, me too."
I asked him, "GNU Emacs 19.29 or GNU Emacs 19.34",
and he replied "GNU Emacs 19.29".
I said "DIE YOU OBSOLETE NOGOOD SOCIALLY MALADJUSTED CELIBATE COMMIE FASCIST DORK!"
and never emailed him again.
