    It's a note in reference to something I was refering to in which one would usually cite a source, but since I would assume you can all read one post up I didn't bother so yes, its a footnote

    The phrase "I in no way..." is only idiot speak if it's followed by either nothing, something incoherent, or an emoticon....unless it's a really cool emoticon.

    Well, those are all deffinitions of how footnotes are USUALLY used as a footnote in fact refers to any note placed at the foot of the page as my footnote was.

    foot·note ( P ) Pronunciation Key (ftnt)
    n.
    A note placed at the bottom of a page of a book or manuscript that comments on or cites a reference for a designated part of the text.
    Something related to but of lesser importance than a larger work or occurrence: a political scandal that was but a footnote to modern history.


    I referenced a part of the text with a note (the text in this case refering to the thread and not simply the post) at the bottom of my page, the quote that the note refers to was not nessecary as a point of reference within my argument as such so I used a a note at the foot of my page, also known as a footnote.

    EDIT: These deffinitions also vary heavily on the format one chooses if one should so decide to follow a format per se.

    More like when there is no comma after "I", but meh.

    When are you going to stop writing "deffinitions"?

    *yawns, and rubs her eyes* What's all the fuss about? Would you like to develop on your family background so that we can understand why you want attention? *goes back to bed*

    What, you hadn't realized before now that I was the resident new target for the shitstorm?

    Of course I want attention and to smoke cocks, otherwise I wouldn't be on a messageboard when I'm not asking for help.

    I tend to not get worked up unless it's targeted at me specifically. Or if it happens to disturb something I'm just being violently compulsive about (which I consider to be targeted at me personally anyway). Good that you've already proclaimed yourself an attention whore though, it will make things that much easier for the rest of us.

    There's only two ways that can be reverse psychology, and I think you just fell for both of them,

    Spooky, as of now, you post an average of 26.6 times per day. It would seem that when I asked you to reduce the length of your posts, you felt you had to compensate with an increase in your number of posts, but the principal stays the same: It's just too much rubbish to take in at once. Is it really necessary to respond to every bloody post people make if it in some way bears reference to you? I can answer that for you: No.

    That said, don't respond to this post.
