Free approach to snobby veteran members of the board

[j2k4]

Like I said.

We'll play nice in this thread.

Maybe.













It depends, really.

[megabyteme]

I sense a possible loop-hole in the offer... :D

[j2k4]

The common-sense loophole defies closure.

One never purposely solicits stupidity, especially given it's propensity for appearing unbidden.

Not forgetting also that we have been particularly blessed in that department of late.

[cmd]

allright I'll be the first nub then, let's kickoff the trolling fest!:

no one cares about veterans really, that's why they keep pushing em shoppingcarts around.

You have totally (really, totally) missed the point of this thread, and no, I am NOT picking on you.

You get one do-over, um, nub, is it?

[lovato]

old people need attention too :)

[Skweeky]

I once met a Vietnam veteran in Las Vegas.

[j2k4]

Well, I've been around for a few board wars (the ketchup thing and various socio-political sortees come to mind), but.

I was thinking more along the lines of the pre-conceived notions relative newcomers have about the old guard here.

Having never been the vicious type (self-indulgently or otherwise), I feel the need to bait lure reach out to the poor put-upon souls lurking hereabout.

This is a mission of mercy, truth.

[j2k4]

old people need attention too :)

Why, Skweeky is a mere lass of, um....she's very youthful.

[Skweeky]

Thin ice Kev. Speaking of the ketchup wars; did you know that Razz and tommygunn are now living together?

[j2k4]

Barely remember them, truth, but if they're happy, so am I.

I didn't get too deep into the conflict, actually, as I had affinity for both causes.

I even offered to start an underground with two-way traffic, but the idea bombed.

As to your thin-ice comment, I apologize; I merely forgot precisely how young you are, and to demonstrate my lack of guile, I will guess you are now about 28.

[Skweeky]

:o

My age is displayed, you oaf :snooty:

[Biggles]

:o

My age is displayed, you oaf :snooty:


Harshed by Kev :shifty:

I can't remember the ketchup wars :cry:

[j2k4]

Oh.

Well, I did say it was a guess...you know how time flies for some of us.

I remember when you were still cradle-bound, saying you'd never have kids, etc., and look how much has changed.

It was strictly a guess, honest.

Apologies.

[Skweeky]

Les, your memories were erased. 't Was a kindness really.

[j2k4]

:o

My age is displayed, you oaf :snooty:


Harshed by Kev :shifty:

It's the age thing, Les.

Really, if I were one year older (like you) the odds of remembering it at all would be incalculable, even if I were an accountant (like you).

who's picking on who what now? I hadn't even begun to be offended. sorry. just paving the way for other newbies so they won't hesitate to post here which is so very scary. you veterans you, with all these buttons to push, it's hard to resist you know. but carry on. I give you a do-over, just the one though. enjoy.

[megabyteme]

Looks like we have come across an irreverent youth, j.

I'll have you know, cmd, that the Simpsons already did that.

Just my opinion but if you create a thread to give newer members some sense of belonging and then fill it with "veterans " talking as old friends almost exclusively among themselves , mostly about past occurrences that only they are privy to, then the whole thing is self defeating.

[Biggles]

Les, your memories were erased. 't Was a kindness really.

That is a relief - thought I had mislaid them again.

You may have a point :shifty:

[IdolEyes787]

Personally I'd make it a point to reply to whatever cmd writes even though it's boring as phuck.

[Skweeky]

I suspect it's a honey trap. :unsure:

Yeah, so shut up about it.

No, really - if we invite them in and don't...what, scalp them, or whatever...and are instead accepting and effusive, we'll have a crop of succulent noobs to consume at our leisure, as well as an inexhaustible supply of subjects for indoctrination, the ever-expanding international social interaction that has become our charter.

Or something.

[IdolEyes787]

I think you are confusing the Lounge and US immigration policy.

I'm hoping for cake but really good cake since it's Heaven and all.

[Skweeky]

Angel cake, no doubt.

[iesu]

grandad j2k4 uses big words, us newcomers feel small and stupid for not getting his old man style ramblings... please make him stop :P

[Skweeky]

I wouldn't worry about it, even us oldtimers usually don't know what he is on about.

[IdolEyes787]

WWII was a tough time for many. We're just lucky he's still around. :happy:

[Skweeky]

It's called the Ketchup Wars around here...

[The_Martinator]

So this means I won't get bashed in this thread? :P

[QPD]

The main problem with "old" folks is that they belive they know everything...
I saw once a movie (lapsus name at the moment of writting) about an old grannie trying to theach good manner a 20y old niece and to stay away from the boys,then somehow she (the grannie) turned miraculousely back at her 20y age after dirnking an elixir and she start screwing with all the males in the movie...

[The_Martinator]

You're taking it too far, QPD, IMO. But I will say this, I stay in good relations with older people simply because I never talk politics with them. I usually talk about things I agree with, movies, music, ....

You overstate.

I am neither obscure nor obtuse.

Huh.

You are lucky.


The main problem with "young" folks is that they belive they know everything...

/fixed.


Greetings to all from NYC, btw.

Wish I had time to find D for a greet...going to see Eddie Izzard at Madison Square Garden tonite.

[clocker]

Lucky bastard.

I belive both of young/old people "know" everything.
I used to work in Times SQ at Skechers store no.100 for a few months...great times... :(

[j2k4]

Eddie was utterly fucking brilliant.

Two hour and forty-odd minute show...don't know how he does it.

Wikipedia is an on-going riff, as are the ubiquitous EULAs we don't read.

Not dressed in drag, either, for reasons clarified later.

He apparently runs marathons now, ffs.

[IdolEyes787]

If he hadn't raised funds for Sports Relief I would say that is just wrong.
Comedians should smoke,drink,take drugs ,eat poorly ,stay up til ridiculous hours and die young.
No one ever found humour in being healthy .Humour needs angst and anger .There is a very good reason that there are terms like " laughed til I cried r" and laugh til it hurts".
You know who are fanatical in their exerciseJoe Piscopo and Carrot Top,I think that settles any argument right there.

We can only thank our lucky stars that Eddie Izzard is a transvestite and therefore will probably always have a part of him that is miserable.:yup:

[Cabalo]

Old habits die hard. :shifty:

Four syllables, no wasted letters...I am an acquired taste...

I'll think about it.

well yust to back up cmb (beacause us newcommers have to stick together against the "snobby old timmers") the simpsons have been on the air for 13 year they have done everything allready and werent the first at it, in fact it was proboably an rip-of of an old episode of The Twilligt Zone

So you know your spelling sucks, and your even trying to provide the excuse that you have been up for 24 hours so you should get a pass, but the burning question is, even in your sleep deprived state you haven't heard of a spell checker ?

Hear, hear.

[MagicNakor]

I'd rather not; I'm trying to sleep.

:shuriken:

[j2k4]

Actually, I meant 'hear, hear' in aid of, 'are you reading this, what do you think it means?', because I haven't got a clue.

I know what 'txt' means.

It's something my kids do.

To me.

That's what they tell me they're doing, anyway.

[HeavyMetalParkingLot]

Blah, not enough snobbishment in here...

[Skweeky]

HMPL! How you doin'?

[HeavyMetalParkingLot]

I'm doing pretty spiffy, how is you?

[Skweeky]

Meh, reasonably ok. Just recovered from a strep throat and had my hip yanked back into place this morning by the physio.
Aside from that, I am just dandy.

[j2k4]

Blah, not enough snobbishment in here...

This thread is intended to provide a respite from the normal level of snobbishment.

Let your hair down or do something else.

[j2k4]

Shouldn't you be abstaining from unfettered physicality during sex.

[Darth Sushi]

Egad, so many negative threads....

I'm never having sex again, that's what got me into trouble in the first place :ermm:

The board mourns the prospect.

/sigh

[Skweeky]

Unless the person in question had the snip.

[j2k4]

Unless the person in question had the snip.

Well, then.

At your service, m'lady.

[Skweeky]

:ermm:

What would Mrs Kev say about that?

[j2k4]

I am merely offering to do the snipping.

[Skweeky]

I think you misunderstand me...

[j2k4]

Tell me how.

[Skweeky]

Are you medically trained at all?

[j2k4]

Don't need no stinking training for that.
