Lightbulb There is reasons why I don't have a signature...

The best excuse I ever had for buying expensive tech. gear,
was it's for the greater good of my future career:

Now with audio, expensive as I made it,
and a better half, expensive as she played it,
I had no choice other than simply make it my career:

The problem for it just seemed
that my self it never had it deemed
as something I could make an career

But at a job fair where I was really just coming to loath
To save on the first and get more money for both,
but a product turned to me and said "my dear:

for so long have you been related
to the technology by which I am created
oh please, oh please make it your career!"

And so
sickeningly addicted,
Wildly afflicted
I'm troubled if as predicted,
the end could be near:

I'm down with permanent mark of the head-Fi flu

Let that be a warning!
-oh wait!
you are already here


I simply didn't dare cut it short

Great stuff. Head-fi in poetry?

Does this imply your "better half" is audio gear?

Love it! If you used small type, that would make for a good signature!

No! Please don't make it into a signature! We've recently decided to restrict signatures to 5 lines or less, using only the smaller font sizes. Anything longer simply becomes too distracting to other members. It also helps if you use muted colors, as I have done in my signature.

Don't we have option to disable showing signature for such case?

Not really. The signature disable option is a take it or leave it deal. If you disable signatures, they're all disabled. You can't do it on a user by user basis for the ones that annoy you.

Well that could be one of number of reasons:
  1. While I'm not the worst to articulate its been said I'm nether the best to spell even in technical crowds.
  2. It was really late at GMT+1 when I tried to put this down from my head before total creative brain-meltdown. Several mistakes are blinding clear - but, I will not change these as my policy is not to do so regardless of the aftermath. I think of poetry as burned in runes on the stones of the old ages.
  3. You simply got a sucky spell check.
  4. Your spell checking construction has taken on a life of its own
