Nil Satis Nisi Optimum = Nothing is enough except the best. Although that seems a bit stumbly in English...

Hmm. Wikipedia has the translation as "nothing but the best is good enough" and also...

Ah, Eomer, you make the fatal mistake of being Scottish! That doesn't work in my accent.

Though this type of thing should most definitely be a thread.

True revolutionary? Me? :p I got the idea from somebody calling me The Guy Who Be Shot. The rest of the names just sort of flowed from there. It would have been very hard to sneak Rune into my siggy...

I like this a lot. A life spent adhering to rules is as much a life of poverty as one spent without books (or other art).

Those Firefoot link things are rubbish. Anybody with an ounce of sense would press control-alt-delete and end task. :rolleyes: I don't see why people bother making them.

I love those high-pitched-noises-used-to-annoy-teens stories. And those teens-use-high-pitched-noises-to-send-messages-in-classrooms stories.

Cool bits. I approve. :)

You guys should stop exploiting my weakness by having Pratchett sigs. I can't help mentioning them. Lovely, beautiful sig from a surprisingly deep book.

Encai's sig. Another Pratchett-inspired one, and all the for better coming from a Yank. I haven't read that yet, though I've meant to for a while. Nice to hear that it's good.

We are indeed the same height, though it probably doesn't seem it in the Philippines.

Pratchett. Book forgotten. Discworld. Night Watch? No. Thud.

I found the cow thing quite repetitive, but still a good book. *Commend*

Very nice sig, Kuru.

Personally, I think he's just saying we should be as moderate or immoderate as we like. After all... why live your life by somebody else's quotes or ideologies?
