We perl nerds consider ourselves a cut above your average sweating nerd. More style, more panache, more charm.

Also, I'm pretty sure "Lemonade Stand" shouldn't have capital letters. Or "Company", for that matter.

Is it your place, Cras? If so, print one out moaning about the use of capitals. In Comic Sans, obv.

The aspect ratio of the image is rubbish - so common.
And I don't like the forum it's posted on.

It is an em-dash, but it's not debatably not appropriate. I (and various style guides) favour em dashes only to indicate when someone is interrupted in typed speech, and are not proceeded by a space.

Has anyone got an short .avi file, or knows where to find them on the Internet? Just something like a clip from a film, no filth (sadly).

Fucking impossible to fucking find :S

I'm sure I've uploaded an .avi before.

If not, stand by for me to change it.

Amusegg. That will surely not be allowed to remain in the contract? Contract is unfair contract.

I call bullshit entirely on the presence of two fullstops. There's no way a real lawyer would include them.
