Re: LZ: my 2 frozen cents on USGARD

tisk tisk tisk. Soo many ignorant people on the internet, and now on this
list-serve. Thank god there are no idiots on the advanced list-serve (I
hope). Jeez. can't you people read anything before complaing about
everything you see!!! Everybody out there, and put me on the record, who
doesn't like Usgard, is well, I big dumb ass idiot!!! God!!! Usgard is 4
times faster, the libraries (and you only need like 2 on your calc) take
up hardly any space (zcp lib on 83 BYTES!!!). god!! you guys are sooo
dumb!! My old games for zshell were soooo much bigger, my new programs for
usgard save sooo much space you can have sooo much more!!!! You guys don't
understand. the big thing about usgard is speed and space. it's allowing
you to have MORE games on yuor calcs. and FASTER better games that would
never be possible on zshell/cshell/etc!!! Man, read the docs ok! that200k
zip file didn't contain just .85* files. it also included lengthy txt
files to answer your every question. why don't you actually try reading
what we gave you! Idiots! How the Hell your ever going to get through life
is beyond me. If I were you I'd start worrying! Along with the other
idiots who complain about usgard. just shut the hell up. you're pissing
the hell out of me and well, I don't feel like arguing with people of such
a inferior intelligence anymore.
