If only I had need for more than the PLE… Well, ok, it does get annoying with custom textures being messed up with the PLE text on them though… Grrrrr… :(

Why does being a fool or a genius change that?

Well, I didn't make up the aphorisms. Maybe they don't have 'em in crill3's native language.

Anyhoo, I think it tends to be true: smart people seem to have similar bright ideas, and dumb people seem to have similarly dumb ideas, and the majority of people seem to have no ideas at all.

Ok shark, how are these... I can't see any distinction.

According to Usagi, that means you have a split personality, otherwise that means you're average, which is probably what it really means according to Usagi.

Everyone in the world has very split personalities.

It means you're normally above average; at least you have some ideas.

@Z: It's like a distinction without a difference. And, do you hate me, or the way I talk? 'Cuz I can't seem to stop! I'm like a shark! Help!

Actually, I was trying to comment on the tendency of aphorisms to contradict each other: Sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander vs. One man's meat is another man's poison; etc.
