Random quotes from bash.org

Bash.org never fails to make me laugh. Whenever I feel particularly bored, I start reading random comments there, and it cheers me up quite a bit. Here I've posted some random quotes that I read there that I liked. These are conversations that people had over Internet Relay Chat (IRC).

 <Malagmyr> This linguistics professor was lecturing the class.
<Malagmyr> "In English," he explained, "a double negative forms a positive. In some languages, such as Russian, a double negative is still a negative."
<Malagmyr> "However," the professor continued, "there is no language wherein a double positive can form a negative."
<Malagmyr> Immediately, a voice from the back of the room piped up: "Yeah..... right...."

[I've always loved this piece of wordplay. For those who didn't get it - saying "Yeah, right" actually means you don't believe in what the other person said, so it's really 'double positive forming a negative' :) ]
