Hey Peter, you remind me of this guy;

It seems that Stifle has apologised (which I set as a condition of returning - I will apologise back when I next log on). I'm not sure it addresses the underlying issue. Moreover FT2's comments on the same page are not encouraging either.

I think that I remained civil at all times and I don't think I was trolling, and while I didn't think I was wrong to make the AFD nomination, it appears that the community feels otherwise, and I accept that decision and apologize that my actions led to this. I also don't care about being called a troll. Regarding the overall issue, someone blocked Giano (as many, including I, have done), someone unblocked him (as many have done), and we've been through the mill on this very recently. An RFAR here would really not improve anything and I hope the ArbCom declines the request. [[User:Stifle|Stifle]] ([[User talk:Stifle/wizard|talk]]) 09:50, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

:I've just read over the AN thread (which I thought had closed and was not following) and wish to strengthen the above. I apologize for my actions in this matter and will try to be less short-sighted in future. Hopefully we can move on.

So, are you officially "back to editing" Wikipedia now, September 2nd?

Damn, I gave you WAY too much credit setting the over/under at October 4th!

2, 2, 2 utterly boring. And Re*Peter gives such a lack-lustre performance on top of it all. Measured against Sandra Bullock's smash↑up canonical interpretation in 28 Days, a film that doles out the full dregs of learned helplessness while never dashing our hopes of eventual salvation, Re*Peter gives us nothing but a prequel to 28 Days Later.

Don't bother saving me the aisle seat — I reckon I can dig a disk out of BlockBuster's trash heap if I ever need to re*review it, which I hope I never do.

You did indeed. I didn't think he would apologise.

So was that a theoretical miracle or an actual one?

It sometimes takes an awful effort to get people to realise they were wrong. Sometimes they don't realise until it's too late.
