      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.
      My all-time favourite Dilbert cartoon, this is: BTW, a Dumpster is a brand of skip, I think.

            ...or, to phrase it another way ..."all your datum is belong to us"??
            The close proximity of the letters 'G' and 'T' are the reason I'll never again send an important email and end it with "Regards" ....

              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.
