All your data belongs to us

[Peoplesoft bloke]

Yes.

So data (plural) is correct in this case as the ID card database will contain > 50 items of personal data

I hate having to explain humour. It makes me feel incompetent.

You didn't follow the link, did you?

"All your base are belong to us" (often shortened to "All Your Base", "AYBABTU", or simply "AYB") is a broken English phrase that was central to an Internet phenomenon, or meme

It was being alluded to in the title of the thread, but incorrectly. I did the thing on it to highlight my acknowledgement of the OP's allusion as nobody else had done so. The pluralisation error is inherent in the quote.


Somehow, it doesn't seem so funny any more.

As for calling me a Luddite, I was trying to stick to the facts (and throw in a few opinions) without getting personal

If you think calling someone a Luddite is personal you really need to get out more.

Sorry - I did follow the link (although I'd already recognised the reference in the thread title) but it just didn't click - some days it doesn't.

Well If you think that is personal you are a big shirt lifter.
