Cave Diver mentioned two common quotes, but there is a third that bugs me as well. It is the terse command to sue the search function.
I nominate TSandM as Scubaboards resident Buddha, forget her diving knowledge the way she (you) conduct your self is something I aspire to, kind, patient, thoughtful and non judgmental. Ok enough of the hippie talk.

And if you still don't like it then take a long dive with a small tank.
