Y'all should be saying "First response nails it".
Think about it; if the thread originator is the "Original Poster", then the next post can't be the first post, now can it? |
Why can't we all just get along? We can ALL be first posts.

Goddamn it. This is why we can't have nice things. OP fucking ruined a perfectly good arfmeme with logic and thought and fancy shit like that. Dick. Since when has logic and thought and fancy doodey ruined a good arfmeme? Op didn't ruin that, but he can see the person who did from his front porch. |

I agree OP. First post nails it. But, if you want to be all grammanazi... then tell me: what is the antecedent for 'it'? As all of life on Arfcom is a search for the truth (and some pointy boots), the antecedent is an implied "the truth". Oooh! Implied antecedents! He told her about it while doing it with him under that which was clearly its original intent, but not his purpose in allowing it to be done to it. |

I often say "Too many pronouns, start over" at work. Or to my children. The sentence fragment had an implied subject/verb, BTW. |

Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Actually: Original Post 1st Post 2nd Post 3rd Post 4th Post etc I always think binary and start at Zero. OP can also be referenced as 0P. Oddly compelling... 0P, I like it and will start using it. Remind me where this thread is when I get bitch slapped for it by the nazis. |

0P, or more betterer: P0, works for nerds.
But, doesn't change the fact that first post is wrong. If you call the OP 0P, then 0P is still the first post. There is no pre-first. First: coming before all others in time and order. If anything is before the first, then it's not first. We should say First Response/1st Binary-ish Post/2nd Post nails it... to keep people from getting confused |

Remind me where this thread is when I get bitch slapped for it by the nazis. 0P could be every post in a thread. Just because something is binary doesn't mean it can't be all zeroes. A T1 works on binary and when it is broke, the tester sees all zeroes.

P00 = first (original) post P01 = first (response) post P10 = first post saying "First post nails it" P11 = first post saying "IBTL" P0101100101101111011101010010000001110011011001010110010101101101001011100010111000101110001000000101101101100010010111010101101101101001010111010110011001100001011011010110100101101100011010010110000101110010010110110010111101101001010111010101101100101111011000100101110100101110 = You seem... familiar. |

But i've structured my whole life on the first post being right. The first post is the person posting after the OP makes the thread. Oh what am i to do  Your entire life is a lie. The options I have found from TV/Movies: Become a bum. Become a super-hero. Suicide. Become a liberal. Turn on, tune in, and drop out. I may have missed one. |
