Has anybody else noticed how the XP part of Windows XP is the same as the 'user just died' smiley?

I rate it 47 thumbs up. (while you might know that's impossible, I don't think XP could handle the logic to determine that it is impossible. I mean, comparing 47 to 2? that's sort of complicated for microsoft.)

oh, yeah, I have merged personalities. I forgot. (yes, that means that "I" is a mind that is shared by multiple bodies, as opposed to split personality which is a body that is shared by multiple minds.)

A picture was posted that was asking why I couldn't have more than two thumbs up. actually it said you, referring to one of my previous posts, in which I used the noun "I" Due to the fact that multiple people were required to have more than two thumbs, I decided that for me to use the singular noun "I" and at the same time have that many thumbs, "I" would have to be one mind with multiple bodies.

You said no such thing:
"I rate it 47 thumbs up. (while you might know that's impossible, I don't think XP could handle the logic to determine that it is impossible. I mean, comparing 47 to 2? that's sort of complicated for microsoft.)"

You only used "I" in relation to your thoughts about windows being unable to use logic to eliminate the possibility of having 47 thumbs up.

actually, if you look at the part before the parenthases, I used "I" in relation to the number of thumbs up.

Unless the action of Rating Something X Thumbs Up involves having 47 thumbs up at any point. You might then say "we Rate it 47 Thumbs Up."

I said that because I liked this humorous thing. And the thing about Xp being able to figure out that I couldn't have 47 thumbs up was another joke. But someone thought I could(and yes, I am too lazy to look and figure out who it was.) Next I sarcastically said "(insert text here)" to show my lack of 47 thumbs. And then people didn't like it and we got into this big argument.
