No . . . There's a point. It's a joke. I've seen it somewhere . . . But I forgot it. I shall go find it.

It's a joke about hexadecimal.

I saw it in a tutorial (http://webmonkey.wired.com/webmonkey/97/17/index2a.html?tw=design) at WebMonkey.com (http://webmonkey.wired.com/webmonkey) for converting decimal numbers to hexadecimal and octal numbers. The tutorial introduces this joke. On the last page (http://webmonkey.wired.com/webmonkey/97/17/index2a_page8.html) is the punchline.

What did I do?

How could ya be mean to me in this case? All I did was help people get the joke. I'm not saying it was a good one or anything.

Please revise it. :)


If Dino finds that joke funny then i think the only thing you need to amuse him is a paper that says Turn on both pages. ;) (sorta something Homer Simpson would find funny)

Sorry guys. I thought it was cute if not hilarious.

Note that it was too subtle for at least one person who posted.

That's exactly how I have it quoted . . .

You are not reading it right. I am saying that i am not trying to be mean to you; simply the joke.
Muss ich im Deutsch sprechen? :)

not sure that i can say that in German :) (since i am not german)

Sind es einengen andres Wort für „Sucked“ das ist nicht „Mean“ zum Athelwulf und nur dass Witze „Dissing“

haha, that was the best i could do :) Someone else that knows Sucked, Mean and Dissing will have to complete that. And i appologize for the bad grammar. Not sure where it was bad grammar but since i wrote it and i more than often screw up the german grammar i simply assume that it is wrong somewhere.
