lolicon26248yI mean he knew what's gonna happen, and he meant to embarrass you on purpose in front of everyone. - 
				
				
Maroti6668y@outman ya, but then the term its commonly used here so I am giving him the benefit of doubt. - 
				
				At least you know what ping is & how to use it.. // totally not meant sarcastic towards you, I just wish more people had brain like you..
 - 
				
				I don't get the exact meaning of that sentence. To be honest I would've done the same.
Someone care to explain what "ping me once" means? (other than "send me the text document the other person just wrote") - 
				
				@Gnu-Not-Unix I use ping me (without the once) when saying to coworker to checkup on me & the task I am working on in xy minutes/hours..
So I am guessing the once part is like when you have time to discuss something.. dunno..
