A skin is still far less lame than using hashtags in a forum post.
Almost as bad as when people say hashtag. Almost. If someone does that, I think its perfectly justifiable to jam a pen through their eye and into their brain. No jury would convict, you are doing the world a huge favour.
Apparently using common nomenclature is unacceptable, but at least being a spectacular * and making murder references is ok when you're friends with a mod.
Whichever mod deletes this please pm so I know who.
I think you may have misinterpreted his response? I don't believe he was disagreeing with you.
I think he's referring to people using hashtag while talking to someone. e.g. "I hate my phone company hashtag AT&T".fastdan1 wrote:

Ohhhh gotcha, she meant literally "say." Well my bad and apologies, but the murder talk is still inappropriate. Although if someone actually says "hashtag" while talking I can see where you're coming from! Do people actually do that?!?!
I will say the origins of it being called pound was interesting. Always wondered where that came from!- #lame #hash #tag
- My sister who works in advertising has an assistant who speaks in hashtag. I am clueless why she keeps him around but yes some people really do speak in hashtag :?

I have no clue one way or the other. Tough to tell from here.- Blimey, some people neex to grow a sense of humour.
For the record, I dont condone murdering idiots..
Well, sometimes.....
No, never.....
Seriously never. - First of all...Dogma was the same person who was randomly complaining about the monorail and bashing anyone and everyone who disagreed with his opinion. Who even said they were coming out with it?
Secondly...Dogma must be the only one to think we'd be getting an extra set of cooling towers. Why the hell would we get an extra set of them? When you were rolling for the Christmas decorations on the wheel, did you think you'd have an extra Simpsons house, Willies Shed, Krabappels Apartment, Cletus Farm, OR ANYTHING ELSE?
As for the #(number) sign. Everybody in the States (who has a brain) knows and remembers it as a "pound sign" on their phone. Only recently has it been known simply as a "hashtag" by teenagers who don't understand there is a whole world outside of the bubble they live in. As for Canadians/those overseas, I have no idea what they referred to it as. llazzarr wrote:

Its not known as a hashtag anywhere, at least not correctly. Its a hash, the word after it (in a tweet) and the hash sign together form the hashtag. Its a tag with a hash in it, hence hash tag.
We know everybody in the states calls it a pound sign, that was established early on. But when the man who first decided to assemble a typewriter keyboard put the # on your US keyboard, he didnt randomly put it there because he didnt want to put a £ on it. Maybe he was seriously anti-british but I doubt it. It obviously had a totally different use and wasnt called the pound sign at that point, because before keyboards people didnt need to substitute a pound sign with a different sign, they had tge ability to write a pound sign. So it was called something else and used for something else. Anyhow this has gone on far too long and has definitely prooved that some people just dont get some types of humour.- mwdaltonNew SpectatorYeah, you still haven't answered if you're a dude or a lady...
