Is it an a2k thing? Never seen it before here let alone elsewhere in other forums and boards.

@ossobuco,
There is a dotted circle to the left of the word Why in the screenshot. It looks like it must be some kind of a2k forum artifact. You might miss it if your eyes are in happy shape these days.

@Rockhead,
A crop circle created by neutrinos perhaps?

A lot of stuff on the internet has been wonky today, either very slow, not connecting at all or lots of weird stuff on the screen.

I suspect the internet web traffic managers are having difficulty with maintaining the fragile balancing act of keeping the globe connected to each other since segments of the globe are intent on turning it off and others are intent on flooding it with connections.

Could also be some strange thing the "Anonymous" folks have initiated in retaliation for the 40 arrest warrants today.

Or it could just be some bugs in the emerging updates for the A2K software....

Or all of the above.

Have you tried wiping your screen with a damp cloth?

@tsarstepan,
I've noticed it too. Unless I'm mistaken, it only appears on the title of one particular poster. Haven't seen it lately, possibly because that one particular is no longer someone I follow. I mean, really, do I want to spend my time discussing why red is heavier than yellow, and how come neither gets wet?

@roger,
Now you've done it, saying red is heavier than yellow.

Are you talking about ketchup versus mustard?

@ossobuco,
Well, the quality of redness, not ketchup per se.

@roger,
I give up as good burgers can have varied toppings.

But what is with the apple like symbol?

@ossobuco,
Is there a bite missing? Maybe they make computers.
