I, Proffesional Iceberg Hunter Jr, would like to know how to italicize, bold, strikethough and put in videos. I believe knowledge in these things will greatly contribute to my sarcasm and allow me to be a functional member of Gizmodo.

I've been dying to be able to do strikethrough in a comment, but all the great Giz minds with whom I have conferred have concluded unanimously that it cannot be done. Yet, I've now seen IRREFUTABLE PROOF that YOU yourself know (or, at least, once knew) how to do this.

Oh, my Master--Progenitor of Punny Prose and Lord of Lingual Laughs--are you able to share this highly-guarded secret with one as unworthy as I?

Hey, 92BuickLeSabre. FYI and in case it might help, I just put a "SUPER SECRET PREVIEW FUNCTION" tip at the top of my bosskev Profile > Messages page.

Really, 92BuickLeSabre. Really!??! What a joke. Anyone who chooses to use a Buick as his 'handle' should have his head examined.
Why don't you just call yourself any of the following:
85ZastavaYugoGV
75VEB SachsenringTrabant
78FordPinto
95FordExplorer
Oh wait, I get it now. That was the car you were conceived in. I hope your parents at least had the good sense to clean the back seat after they were done using it... ugh!
I bet when you pull into the gas station with that smoking heap you tell them to "check the gas and fill the oil." Hey, here's a tip. When that rusting, gas-guzzling land yatch of a car starts pulling a Jed Clampett and bathing your driveway in black gold (and it will, believe me it will) use kitty litter to soak up the excess. It works great.

You're a cock-knocker. Seriously. You are the biggest douchebag this site has ever seen. You are like a walking argument for why abortion should be legal. You are a waste of protoplasm. The sperm that didn't result in you - those were the lucky ones.

I can't think of any redeeming quality for you aside from the fact that you probably do a decent job of keeping your chair from floating off into space.

I hope you get mauled by a pack of syphilitic badgers.

I like to train like Rocky in Rocky IV.

I blast Eye of the Tiger (natch). I grew out a big bushy beard and I run through the snow in my peacoat and woolcap while dubious Russians look on. I also have a wooden cart that I pull behind me sometimes. Except that instead of my trainer, I filled it with about 60 kittens. I split old computer cases out back using the fire axe from the hallway. And I skip rope using CAT5 cable.

Usually, during this regimen, the hallucinations kick in. I usually imagine you in a pseudo-scientific setting, punching at keyboards while Kaiser looks on approvingly. Curves is there too - with a blonde flat-top.

Come to think of it - I propose a new rule. All Star-commenting is to be done while listening to Eye of the Tiger. Alternatively, What A Feeling!, I'm Holding Out For A Hero or Let's Hear It For The Boy may be substituted.

I did it for the lulz (coincidentally, I used that defense on my pending assault charge)

Holy crap! Look what's been going on on my end!

Can I have the left over ipods? I just want to make sure they don't end up in a panda anywhere.

Hey, how's the panda/ipod dock battle going on your end?

Yeah should have clarified that. I clicked on your avatar's thumbnail to get a bigger view of the car, only to get a giant logo. Hell, when I comment the bird pic is still my avatar, even though I've changed it like 2 days ago. Apparantly it can take a while for the site to fully update user changes.
