Siggys - does it annoy you when.... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Does it bug you when people put quotes or song lyrics in their siggy but don't attribute them to anyone?
It bothers me. Sometimes I've read some really cool quotes in people's sigs but they've never bothered to put who said them in the first place so I dunno where they came from.
I know it's not a big deal but I just wondered if anyone else was bothered by it.

Jem · 03-23-2003, 05:38 PM

I'm not bothered by it, but in case people are wondering about my sig, it's lyrics from an anti-war song by the band Rusted Root called "Ecstasy".

°Bubbly Blonde° · 03-23-2003, 05:51 PM

no not really.....i think everyone knows who sings the lyrics to the song in my lyrics.....

Hollow · 03-23-2003, 05:56 PM

Mijada · 03-23-2003, 08:28 PM

I really don't pay much attention to siggys. I just glance at them.

Hmmmm, that's a coincidence - I was just about to say the same thing!

It doesn't bother me too much, because I do it all the time. In case anyone really cares, my lyrics are from "The Stranger" by Billy Joel.

Kay Scarpetta · 03-23-2003, 09:41 PM

Nah, doesn't bother me too much.

Anyway, my lyrics are from the song "Gotta Be" by Des'ree

Rockapella722 · 03-23-2003, 09:42 PM

Titania · 03-23-2003, 10:16 PM

~*Hannah_Lee*~ · 03-24-2003, 12:15 AM

My siggy is the beginning of the song "In The Belly of the whale" by Newsboys but my favorite part of the song is:

In the belly of the whale
In an underwater jail
It's a tight squeeze.
It's a-gettin' to me,
But it's roomier
Than the tail.
Hey, sailor,
Got my flow free
Like a salmon to the sea
From the L.A. Symphony.
I'm a paddleboat
Paddlin' in their wake,
A fake free-styler,
But my unemployment pays.
I'm avoiding cliches
Like "whale of a tale" say
Or "you can't keep
A good man down,"
'Cause you can
And I've been there, man.
But I've been expectorated.
I'm elated!
I'm free like Willie!
Happy Day!
Oops,
That's a bit of a cliche.
