On recently reviewing the huffage log, I only just now grasped the "huffed"/"hacked up" dichotomy and almost died laughing(!). How the hack could I have missed that??? --DW ^III 05:31, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

I don't get it. --Nerd42Talk 20:40, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

From the log:

• 00:36, 21 July 2006 DWIII huffed "The Banana Republic" (content was: 'All hail The Banana Republic!')
• 00:36, 21 July 2006 DWIII hacks up "The Banana Republic" (2 revisions restored: wrong message)
• 00:35, 21 July 2006 DWIII huffed "Banana Republic" (bad redirect; content was: '#REDIRECT Latvia' (and the only contributor was 'JarlaxleArtemis'))
• 00:32, 21 July 2006 DWIII huffed "The Banana Republic" (bad redirect; content was: 'All hail The Banana Republic!' (and the only contributor was '69.231.113.157'))

An explicit explanation would only spoil it. If you don't get it now, it's all the more funnier if/when it dawns on you some time later. --DW ^III 21:07, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Oh, OK I get it now. :) Wasn't sure what from the log you were referring to. --Nerd42Talk 21:49, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Why, thank you. That was my handiwork. » Brig Sir Dawg | t | v | c » 07:30, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

I think there were about 3 people on IRC who noticed it each in 5 minute intervals, and each without noticing the others' comments.   t o m p k i n s  blah. ﺞوﻦ וףה ՃՄ ண்ஸ ފއހ วอฏม +տ trade websites 08:10, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Anywoo, should not they both be in past tense form (ala Mediawiki default)? --DW ^III 08:28, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

Done. --Carlb 15:32, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
