I've noticed that some of you consistently struggle with quoting other posters. So I figured a tutorial might help.

1) Turn on your computer
2) Remember to breathe (this step should be repeated often enough to prevent you from passing out)
3) Access the internet. If cable or dsl is available but you use dial-up, skip to step 15
4) Direct your browser to these forums
5) Find the thread you want to post in. Hint: If you're a right wing nutjob or kingoreo, you'll be looking for a thread that leads off with a C & P
6) This is the tricky part. Find a post in the thread to reply to and then click QUOTE
7) Type your moronic reply outside the brackets, WITHOUT deleting any part of the brackets around the quoted text
8) Do not check for any factual or spelling errors and click Submit Reply
9)-14) Ferrets

15) Kill yourself

See? Not hard.
 
7a) Don't forget to use some sort of semi homoerotic insult, such as dicklick or make reference to a butt buddy.
 
Totally easy.

Dicklick. Or is that two words? Dick lick. Or, wait. Compound modifier. Dick-lick fuckwad. Hmmm.

This could get confusing if Richard_ Daily's married name is Lick.

We are truly helpful.

I would only accept payment in store credit. Because I am gracious.
 
Can I correct obvious spelling mistakes contained within said quoted text?

I like to be helpful sometimes.
 
Sinny is now in charge of any questions you may have regarding quoting. She'll be along shortly to assist you.

Thanks

Who is in charge of questions I may have for you pertaining to french pastries?
 
Sorry, almost forgot.

This thread taxes me, so I'm going to practice quoting in my head while doing the dishes.
