Sorry for the dumb questions, but can someone explain "pinging" and "bumping" to this newbie?

HOW TO LICK YOUR DAMN ELBOW:

1. Cut off arm above elbow.
2. Pick up arm from floor or ground.
3. Lick the damn elbow.

You're welcome.

Just a joke, and a quote from www.despair.com.

Ah yes - and a wondrous place it is. I have framed posters from them on my living room wall - "Despair" and "Pessimism." Any freepers what haven't been there, check 'em out. They're wonderful :)

Newbies are met with suspicion and insults by some around here.

Nah, it's all in your mind. Long as you've got a great scren name like "occam's chainsaw." Otherwise we'll ridicule, pummel, flagellate and generally chew you up at leisure until the moose come home - with the cheese, of course.

Just to clarify, #37 wasn't directed at you. :-)

Ha, we had that great red, green and blue plastic cover for the TV and placed it on the screen when we played pong.

Don't listen to Occam's_chainsaw - he's a newbie Liberal disruptor.

Am not! Besides, I've got a pet moose who can lick his elbow and eat cheese at the same time.

Watch yer step there, Billy boy. My moose can beat up your moose!

Thank you for not making fun of newbie's question. I am little more than a newbie--a sophmore, more or less, but can't figure out how to reply to a post and have the text I am replying to show up above my answer. Have tried the webmaster (no reply), the help option (did not apply), all to no avail. I know you will be kind.
