It was a geek joke. In programming, those are addresses of computer memory, AKA pointers.

its not a joke lol

i saw erowids 'pointers' joke and at first i didn't get it

but i was like 'hey those arent real tribes pointers cause most of the functions start at 004/5/6 and they're 8 digits these are 7'

and then i got it like 'hey u want some pointers heres some pointers 0xbutts'

if they'd have been like 0x0045678A i prolly wouldn't have gotten the joke at all and tried to look them up in my list :lol:

If it had been 0xButts, I wouldn't have gotten the joke.

It would be really funny if he was able to look up the pointer, and find a link to dickbutt or Rick roll, or something like that.

I don't remember what it's like to get beat by Firelord...

I haven't played in a few weeks, because my bluetooth input peripherals shit the bed, but I've got new usb gaming input devices being shipped from the land of lead paint, sometime soon, so I'll be able to log in and get rekt, soon!

Also, my seasonal employment ends on the 25th, and I haven't applied for winter employment yet, so I'll probably have plenty of time to get rekt, too.
