Fortunately, you just posted the two symbols on my screen.

Echus Cthulhu Mythos · Fri Oct 08, 2004 11:05 pm

Unfortunately, I still can't see them. I thought I posted two squares.

Hunter B · Post by **Hunter B** » Fri Oct 08, 2004 11:09 pm

Fortunately, I know not to post any more symbols, seeing as no one else can see 'em correctly.

Echus Cthulhu Mythos · Fri Oct 08, 2004 11:16 pm

Unfortunately, I want to see them.

Have you tried posting it using

Code: Select all

Hunter B · Post by **Hunter B** » Fri Oct 08, 2004 11:42 pm

Fortunately, I am trying it right now, to see if it works

Code: Select all

 &#29976;&#22818;

Does it?

Echus Cthulhu Mythos · Fri Oct 08, 2004 11:51 pm

Unfortunately, nope

Fortunately, I've learned a valuable lesson, ARGH!!!!!

p.s. does it show boxes or numbers this time?

Echus Cthulhu Mythos · Sat Oct 09, 2004 12:28 am

Unfortunately, just boxes/squares/whatever.

Hunter B · Post by **Hunter B** » Sat Oct 09, 2004 4:31 am

Fortunately, I can still see it.

Unfortunately, I can't see anything--oh, wait! My eyes were closed. It's okay now.

Echus Cthulhu Mythos · Sat Oct 09, 2004 1:25 pm

Fortunately, does that mean you can see the symbols instead of square boxes?

ChoChiyo · Post by **ChoChiyo** » Sat Oct 09, 2004 7:59 pm

Unfortunately I see nothing but two question marks.

Hunter B · Post by **Hunter B** » Sat Oct 09, 2004 8:03 pm

Fortunately, you see something other than boxes.

ChoChiyo · Post by **ChoChiyo** » Sat Oct 09, 2004 8:31 pm

Unfortunately, that's disappointing as I wanted to see something unique and special.

Hunter B · Post by **Hunter B** » Sat Oct 09, 2004 8:35 pm

Fortunately, it only says sweet as.

ChoChiyo · Post by **ChoChiyo** » Sat Oct 09, 2004 8:39 pm

Unfortunately, I do not really know what "sweet as" means.

Hunter B · Post by **Hunter B** » Sat Oct 09, 2004 8:44 pm

Fortunately, you can just ask ECM.

ChoChiyo · Post by **ChoChiyo** » Sat Oct 09, 2004 8:48 pm

Unfortunately, I don't trust him to tell me the truth. He may make something up, so that when I go to New Zealand and say it, a bunch of toughs will beat me senseless and leave me lying unconscious on the street, where he will find me and laugh at my misfortune.

Echus Cthulhu Mythos · Sun Oct 10, 2004 12:08 am

Fortunately, you have given me a good idea!

Nah, 'sweet as' is New Zealand colloquial language. It basically just means 'cool'

ChoChiyo · Post by **ChoChiyo** » Sun Oct 10, 2004 12:17 am

Cool

Unfortunately, you have missed a golden opportunity to allow thugs to beat me senseless. However, that is fortunate for me.

Hunter B · Post by **Hunter B** » Sun Oct 10, 2004 12:38 am

Fortunately, he did miss the chance.

ChoChiyo · Post by **ChoChiyo** » Sun Oct 10, 2004 12:42 am

Unfortunately, he may have another chance soon because I am not very well versed in New Zealandish slang.

Hunter B · Post by **Hunter B** » Sun Oct 10, 2004 12:44 am

Fortunately, you can usually tell what a word means by the context.

ChoChiyo · Post by **ChoChiyo** » Sun Oct 10, 2004 12:48 am

Unfortunately, you can not always tell what a word means by its context.

Hunter B · Post by **Hunter B** » Sun Oct 10, 2004 12:49 am

Fortunately, you can most of the time.
