"Weird Signatures"
 
   For some reason, and I don't know if anyone else is getting this, the forum keeps sticking line breaks in my signature. Here's what it currently looks like pre-editing.

"She's old, she's lame, she's
barren too, // "She's not
worth feed or hay, // "But
I'll give her this," - he blew
smoke at me - // "She was
something in her day." --

standards.

I, er... I don't know what I'm doing wrong here. Probably something obvious. On the off-chance that it's not my limitless idiocy at the heart of the problem, though, consider this you guys being informed. =]

   Your sig looks fine on my side, which suggests it may be something in your browser.

I'm seeing those as (apparently) wrapped text. The first takes 3 lines (complete), the 2nd takes 2 (complete).

I'm not sure which of those versions is supposed to be correct: the 1st quote (as example) that's 3 lines long or the one that's 8 lines long (from your original post)

   The incorrect version is the one you quoted. For reference, I have left it unchanged below, rather than edit it to make it correct again.

   This or something like it happens to people's reply-with-quotes sometimes as well. I think it's a browser-handles-prepopulated-edit-window-weirdly thing and not DCF's doing. I am unable to replicate it.

   Righto. I'll not worry about it, then. =]

When I was editing my .sig, I found that editing in Chrome added a line break where it wrapped in the text window, but Firefox did not. So it's definitely a browser thing.

I see this, say it in my head, and for some strange reason immediately flash back to my youth and hear that first lick of "House of a Thousand Pleasures" by EZO (Akira Takasaki of Loudness was in that band too) that Z-Rock used to use as a bumper while they cut to commercial.

   Bizarrely, that sounds almost EXACTLY like the opening riff to "Cult of Personality".
