I know that in 92 a IBM 1 GB cost $10,000. 4 meg of ram cost me a few dollars too. Dialup was at 2400 and actually took nearly a 1/2 hour for a page to come up.

You mean "phallic", you tard. Seriously, wtf is "fallace"? Were you jerking off to Mike Wallace from 60 Minutes?

Actually, we both mean "phallus". Oh, real mature with the tard thing. How old are you, 30? Whatever, I'll get over it.

Regards, dictionary.com:

phal?lus (fāl'əs) Pronunciation Key
n. pl. phal?li (fāl'ī') or phal?lus?es

Anatomy
The penis.
The sexually undifferentiated tissue in an embryo that becomes the penis or clitoris.
A representation of the penis and testes as an embodiment of generative power.
The immature penis considered in psychoanalysis as the libidinal object of infantile sexuality in the male.

PS: I don't watch 60 minutes, I'm a teenager.

But yes, Mike Wallace is super hot. :rolleyes:

For all I know about your thought process you meant to use the word peanut butter. I only pointed out your sh*tty spelling. And, no, I meant to use the word "phallic" not "phallus". There's a difference.

phal?lic [fal-ik] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation
?adjective
1. of, pertaining to, or resembling a phallus.
2. of or pertaining to phallicism.
3. genital (def. 2b).




And like I told you in my reply to your whining PM - grow some skin.
