What is Dinsdale?
 
????? I've heard this term used a lot on this forum... ?????

yea who is he

:D Dinsdale is the new Bernard. We had to have a new one for SH4.

(If you dont know who bernard is, he`s the one that gets blamed everytime something goes wrong, for instance if you forget to delete the sh3 folder in "My documents" prior to a GWX installation, its Bernards fault)

Dinsdale was a joke from Monty Python's Flying Circus, resurrected because somebody wanted a British version of Bernard. Only problem is, Dinsdale doesn't seem to have ever been a screwup, rather a deliberate troublemaker.

Yeah, Bernard is the dummkopf who surfaced my last boat right in the middle of a TF with three BBs in it and got us vaporized by 16' shell...

that's my Bernard:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:


BTW, is Dinsdale the official SH4 dummkopf? 'Cause I've always thought of the SH4 dummkopf to look something like this:

NO! There are those who want him to be, but I say Dinsdale is British and we need a good American scapegoat!:rock:

but who? Whoever can we use? (it's NOW that a clever lad is about to give a VERY good sugestion....right?)

A navy version of Gomer Pyle:up:
..I agree with Steve, Dinsdale is excellent, but maybe we should have an american since SHIV is between US and Japan.

Yes, I'm a Monty Python nerd, and I think, that if we do NOT use Dinsdale, then I think we should call him Mr. Gumby!
