Sick sig, slick!

Sometimes the best part of postings on Slashdot, gaming sites and the like are the sigs.

(If you don't know what a sig is, move along -- you're in the wrong demographic.)

Some are deep. Some are funny. Some are scary. Some are absolutely "sick."

(Hey, I'm told to aim at a younger demographic and that's what my son says every 5 minutes -- it means really good, not ill or twisted -- so there you go. Text your friends, kids!)

Here are some of the best I've culled over the years.

(Who am I kidding -- I grabbed these just now because I have to get this flippin' thing written before I go on vacation.)

  • Unfortunately Slashdot limits sigs to 120 characters. However, I was able to ingeniously circumvent this limitation by
  • "A government big enough to give you everything you want, is big enough to take away everything you have."
  • Knock-knock. -Who's there?
    Under the Patriot Act, we don't have to tell you that.
  • What if I do the same thing, and I do get different results?
  • My anger management class [ticks] me off!
  • If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving isn't for you -- Screaming Lord Sutch
  • Engineering 101: If it shouldn't move, you need duct tape. If it should move, you need WD-40
  • ASCII stupid question, get a stupid ANSI
  • (\_/)
    (x.x) teh
    (> <) supar ascii bunny
  • Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.........
  • Can I bum a sig?
  • If you think the whole world revolves around you, quit staring at the GPS display while driving.
  • nostalgia's not what it used to be.
  • No sig. Move along - nothing to see here.

But you can do better. I know you can.

Send me your best shots in the comments section below. If I get more than 25 separate entries (one sig per entry), I'll put them to a vote of the CW editorial staff and the submitter with the best offering will win a $25 gift certificate.

And what the hey, if the winner can prove the sig is his/hers and has been used on a site previously, we'll kick in another $25 for him/her.

(See, I'm supposed to go for the female demo, too. Text your friends, ladies!).

Economic catastrophe be damned. Think of it as our own little stimulus package. Take that, Republicans.

And I don't know what "best" will mean. That's up to the staff.
