Canucks

Regarding your do-over change: a canuck is also just slang for anyone from Canada..Strong Bad may not actually be referencing a team, but he definitly is referencing that slang I think -- Tony Stony 22:54, 17 May 2005 (UTC)

Tom, it is resembling The Rock!

Marzipan's eye-brow raising is identical to The Rock FTR. User:James Craven 2:46 PM EDT 05/26/05.

So, The Rock is the *only* person to have even arched an eybrow? -- tomstiff 18:55, 26 May 2005 (UTC)

Wow, guess I reference The Rock all the time. And here I thought I hated wrestling... Aurora the Homestar Coder 18:56, 26 May 2005 (UTC)

I'll admit my pop culture aptitude ain't what it used to be. I still say that sometimes an arched eyebrow is just an arched eyebrow. -- tomstiff 18:59, 26 May 2005 (UTC)

What did I do??

LOL. I didn't add that remark; I added a "." at the end of the sentence. You're right, it doesn't belong there regardless. Click on the "diff" button next to my edit to see. --blackbelt 22:22, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)

STUFF testing

tomstiff, our new STUFF format is ready for public testing. Please check it out. — It's dot com 08:45, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Hey tomstiff. I've started a discussion here (with suggestions) about how to verdict facts under the new format. Also, I fixed those dates you mentioned. — It's dot com 00:06, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)

About Atlanta reference

Are there other airports that have the exact same automated voice system that says "Please stay in the center of the vehicle and away from the door?" You've changed this back twice apparently with some knowledge of other systems using the exact same language (which was replaced in 1994 at Hartsfield). The only reason I say this is because a) this is a classic Atlanta reference, almost anyone living in the city at the time remembers it and b) the Chapmans are from Atlanta so they are probably also aware of it.

Clever Header Title

Hey there, tomstiff. I think you're cool. Just a random compliment for ya. Flamboyantly yours, BazookaJoe 06:19, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Gawrsh, thanks=very yes! And here I thought I was laboring away in obscurity! -- tomstiff 13:16, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Minor changes

Hey tomstiff. How are ya? Quick question: do you have "Mark all edits minor by default" checked in your preferences? Sometimes your edits are more substantial than what I would consider minor. Maybe it's a matter of preference, but take this edit for example. (Not that I disagree with the change itself; I just think it's a substantial change.) By the way, keep up the good work on the wiki! — It's dot com 16:53, 8 Jul 2005 (UTC)

I never know when I cross the line from minor edit to major. It's just habit that I mark 'em all as "minor" edits. -- tomstiff 17:05, 8 Jul 2005 (UTC)

I think maybe you've got the line drawn too high. Spelling, grammar, punctuation, formatting (to a point)—I think of these things as minor. But anything that is a change in content—even if it's just a few words—is not minor. Also, I would think that comments on talk pages are not minor. If for some reason I was hiding minor edits in the Recent changes, I would have missed your reply. ;) — It's dot com 17:19, 8 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Hmmmm, I think I'll just start marking everything as "not minor." Obviously, if *I* make a change, it *must* be important! -- tomstiff 17:22, 8 Jul 2005 (UTC)
