I want this thread to be a video and audio clearinghouse of any instances of Wikipedians beginning statements or responses to questions with the word "So...". It annoys me.

So what's your point? Mine was that it's not a Wikipedian thing; Kelly does it, yet is as opposed to the Wikiculture as anyone on Earth.

My point is that you're a big downer, "Detective". Maybe you could lighten up and join the fun, rather than being such a cross-dressing statistician type of guy.

I made a joke and you tried to squash it. (IMG:smilys0b23ax56/default/blink.gif) How does that make me the downer round here? (IMG:smilys0b23ax56/default/ermm.gif) Maybe you should just stop making silly attacks on editors from all round the world; they only make you look ridiculous and detract from whatever useful points you make.

Sorry if this is a silly joke that I didn't get.
