On one of those serving thingies, I heard a young chap saying that his game "sucked cos of the crap lag on his modem".

Should I be insulating my modem too? Will any old lagging do or does one have to buy a special type?

Cheers :E

While you could splash out on lagging your modem, you'll probably find it cheaper, quicker and easier to just drop your modem into something already lagged.

Like the hot water tank.

(Note that this may invalidate the warranty)

Don't drop your modem into the hot water tank as you will start hearing pings coming out of every radiator ;)

Unless of course you have electric storage heaters, in which case it's fine.

I had a CV submitted for a help desk job and the guy actually listed PING as one of his skills (for diagnosing network problems apparently ;) )

(no he ain't been invited for an interview)

I was one told that PING stood for "Packet INternet Grope"....anyone know if that's actuall true or was the little green pixie that told me lying ?

I heard a man say that I had a bigger ping than him. Does that make me better? I can't see how he's referring to my huge penis since I think that web cam only takes photos of my face. He called me an HPB, which I think is a type of lorry, but I could be wrong.

Where are my sandwiches?

"when i call your celly late at night

on my message at night. Mostly.
