If I had my way there would be no badges

What purpose do they serve ?

@arduino_uno534 FWIW, you just got the badge for the "most incoherent post of the day". I only give those occasionally(you're the first, actually, but it'll be hard to beat), and they don't show up in the system, but hey, it's a badge!

I thought "Get badges here!" was directing me to a place where I could buy badges. I came here and found that it's not that at all. I think this topic should be removed on the grounds of false advertising and spam.

At the very least, it should be moved to Bar Sport where it can be given the attention it deserves.

You already got the coveted "Lovelace" badge named after the famous porn star and Washington Post contributor. Good job!

I think they meant Ada, not Linda. Not sure if they're related.

"Badges? We don't need no stinkin' badges!"

is a widely quoted paraphrase of a line of dialogue from the 1948 film The Treasure of the Sierra Madre

The widely quoted line about not needing stinking badges is derived from the original version of the line that appeared in B. Traven's "The Treasure of the Sierra Madre" (1927).

I could quote the original here but it is so thoroughly NSFW that I would probably be banned for life. :grinning:

Fun fact: B. Traven is a pseudonym, and no one seems to know who actually wrote The Treasure of the Sierra Madre. One of my long time favorites, by the way.

That is a fun fact.
We used to see a movie once a month in junior high and "The Treasure of the Sierra Madre" was the movie one month. I enjoyed reading books that movies were made from so read the book. I was pretty shocked at some of the language at that age and those times.
Great movie.

I also watched movies adapted from books while at school, I only remember 4 of them

The Day of the Triffids by John Wyndham 1951
Treasure Island by R . L . Stevenson 1883
The Thirty Nine Steps by John Buchan 1915
The Lord of the Flies by William Golding 1955

I had to Google the dates, all four have had been remade in some form of movie or tv series.
