Did they call you? Paypal don't make their money by giving it away.

So, in summary, I think you are trying to tell us you don't understand mathematics or its notation.

no, hes trying to tell us he needs to get the elephant away from his keyboard and interact with some humans in a social setting. Preferably not mentioning the above to any of them either.

That's quite amazing!
I will go to church this very Sunday to give praise the the Lord for his works

This is also proof of His being[^]
P.S. I'd mark it as spam as this guy just seems to post the same drivel all over the place, but I know some of our regulars are still tucked up in beddy-byes & I would hate for them to miss out on such a revelation.

No Maxxx, mark his message as spam, and him as a spammer (in his profile). I just did.

I disagree.
He has posted only a single message, and while stoopid it is harmless.
I see it doing no harm to the visitors to the lounge.

It was all pointing to several domains that were suspiciously looking like advertising. There was no matter to it, and it looks like others have had similar thoughts (gone now).

Even though the records are all either destroyed or falsified; even though he has been excommunicated by Sauron of Redmond; portrayed as anathema incarnate by the minions of Microsoft's vast herd of flacks and paid-off pseudo-journalists working for t-shirts and fancy conference badges; and the outline of his thin body effaced from all monuments as if he were a disgraced Pharaoh:
Yea though Clippy has become a shibboleth for user-interface designers world-wide: those of us who treasure the memories of him popping up with that endearing wriggle in Excel, and other applications, can rejoice:
Clippy's lost daughter, Inori Aizawa, the hushed-up love-child of Clippy's now "disappeared" interlude in Japan with Sailor Moon, has been found in Singapore, freed from ensorcelled durance vile in the clutches of Lord Manga, and will soon embody the fighting spirit of Internet Explorer 11.
But, wait: let her brave young voice speak for herself: [^]:
"Hey everyone! My name is Inori and you can think of me as a personification of Internet Explorer.
When I was younger, I used to be a clumsy, slow and awkward girl.
However, just like the story of ugly duckling, people told me that I have really matured and changed over the years. I feel confident in my abilities now, and I'm eager to show you what I can do."
But: the same chthonic forces of intolerance disguised as political correctness reeking of ersatz empathy that murdered Clippy [^] ... the same heinous assassins who created the game that directly led to Clippy's death: [^] are still at large !
We need to rally to make sure Inori is protected, nurtured through her larval stage, and ... it's obvious, looking at her swollen saucer-eyes from years living in the absolute darkness of bewitchment: she needs medical, and very likely prolonged psychiatric, care.
Oh, yes, you may be saying: "What can I ... such a small cog among vast infernal wheels rotating with monstrous energies ... do that will make a difference, given the virtual omnipotence of the forces at play in the fields of silicon in the era of small form-factor devices where skeuomorphism and chrome are out, and rectangles and literality are in ?"
Perhaps Inori will tell us.
"What Turing gave us for the first time (and without Turing you just couldn't do any of this) is he gave us a way of thinking about and taking seriously and thinking in a disciplined way about phenomena that have, as I like to say, trillions of moving parts.
Until the late 20th century, nobody knew how to take seriously a machine with a trillion moving parts. It's just mind-boggling." Daniel C. Dennett

So, an 18 year old (well done MS marketing for ensuring they don't get tarred with the paedophillia brush) dressed as a schoolgirl (well, perhaps not quite so well done) with short skirt and plenty of up-skirt shots is the personification of internet explorer?
Awesome!

Hmmm...
"It seems Microsoft has a hit on its hands -- at least, among creepy guys who carry photos of Sailor Moon in their wallets."
Inori is welcome to come to my house; I protect any who seek refuge under my roof with my life. But I will not allow her or anyone to bring into my domain that spawn of Satan, Internet Explorer, in any of its various incarnations.
And, just out of curiosity, does Inori swallow or spit? Inquiring minds want to know...

Oh! Found something I like!
Peek Definition as well as GoTo definition - Peek just shows you a peek of the definition in a sort of window-within-a-window.
Handy.
Anyone else using VS2013 found anything you like/dislike?

Still playing with it but kinda like everything so far. Feels like what 2012 should have been (or maybe I'm used to it already). BTW: don't you find it odd that they are actually naming the versions to the actual year that it comes out? That just never happens with Microsloth...
