Posting from a REAL computer

My students are taking an exam over the C# programming language, so I am stuck at the front of the class in front of a REAL computer!
As such I feel free to type long and flowing sentences as opposed to the kind of cramped language I typically use when posting from a cheap Android phone while squatting on a toilet or waiting in line at Taco Bell.
I hope you all enjoy this elucidating message written in the most prosaic and verbose manner. I only regret this isn't a reply so I could also have included some context from a previous poster's blunderheaded statement, which is a luxury I don't usually have.

Sincerely,
Theodore L. Ward

As much as I appreciate the prose, I kinda wish I didn't know the locale of your Android postings....

Taco Bell, Toilet, then phone?

That's why I don't touch other people's mobile devices.

I did enjoy this message; you seem articulate and more intelligent than
you normally do.

Who the hell takes a dump at 11:21 in the morning? Do you have cancer or
something?

You are okay, Unkie, I don't give a damn what anyone here says about you
when you aren't around.

If I don't take 4 a day I don't feel well.

That isn't normal, Ken. Have you been to the do-do doctor lately?

I see a Dr. at least every 3 months.

I heard you even stood up for him once. When someone said he stunk you
said, "Like shit he does!"

Mostly pretty good, a few low ones.

Is this like my organometallic chemistry final in college? High score: 84/128. Mean score: 50/128. Low score (which I just narrowly avoided): 28/128.

No, I had a computer graphics class like that though it sucks.
