If we give silvers to all those low-guys who never show up.

Then we will get more hats.

The ones at the far end of the list likely already have them.

Hurray! The yuleglee question is #1 on the super-collider!

@tchrist You need more than one account for that, right?

RegDwigнt

You have to be registered to be a sock...

And socks are not disallowed.

tchrist

@RegDwigнt I saw what you did right there.

And claimed my reward.

Hugo

It is specifically allowed to have any number of accounts per person. Just don't upvote one another and shit.

@tchrist I let it sit this time for others to claim.

But only you weren't sleeping.

tchrist

Oh very well.

Me, sleep?

RegDwigнt

I let sit two, in fact. But even you only ever claimed one.

A: How to say "almost exactly 1 hour"?

In my regional dialect, you could say "we'll meet here in nigh on an hour." It means "roughly an hour" or "nearly an hour", with the connotation of within a few minutes of exactly an hour, inclusive of exactly an hour.

Needs one more, any takers?

Robusto

@RegDwigнt But I only have the one account, so I needn't worry. Why would I want another account?

Hugo

@KitFox done

@Robusto to wear more than one hat at a time?

KitFox

@Hugo Thanks!

tchrist

@Robusto Never mind. No matter.

Robusto

She has the same hat as me. I think it looks better on me, though.

Testing a Eureka theory, all the others I found had it on MSO, but might be a coincidence. Could I have an upvote or two? meta.stackoverflow.com/q/212398/162511

Robusto

@tchrist am I a rave?

KitFox

Hey, what do you do in a code review anyway?

JSBձոգչ

there are a few rare cases when it's the thing you need

and about a thousand cases where bad programmers think they should use it to fix their race conditions
