I will say that if it takes the intercession of Jesus Christ to prevent you being a dick to a friend because he got to do something cool and you didn’t, then I’m really glad for him that he found Jesus Christ.

I find that one of the sad things about religion. Really he’s not a dick, he had a moment of jealousy, recognized it and dealt with it but he gives the credit for the good part to someone else and responsibility for the bad part he keeps. Seems unfair to me.

Click this big icon is way different than do this slalom course at 50 MPH and then stop on a dime inches from the rubber car.
Though, after attempt 15 his responses might get more terse.
Personally, if it weren’t a race I would have used my first attempt to see how far I could make that balloon car fly.
But hey, Jesus worked it out in the end and gave Andy a Mustang too!
On the other hand, boy, what sourpusses. (Him, more than her. Also, Merideth’s insistence on referring to Meredith by Meredith’s first name (“Gretchen, Merideth doesn’t want to do that task. Meredith is tired. :mad:” was just as annoying as hell)
Hell, what about Ian and Terry from S3? Granted, they were in their young 50s, but they made it to the final 3.
That’s just how it works. A tornado destroys your house it’s just an act of nature. Someone comes along and offers you food and shelter it’s a blessing from God.
And “drive this car” is way different than “configure this TCP/IP protocol stack”.
Right, but which answer does the average IT guy give on a daily basis and which is a more rare occurrence? Because I know which one I tell hapless users all the time.
My only quibble with Hairy Snowboarder’s introspection was: geez, dude, God is not going to send you to hell because you thought “man, I wish I could drive…”. He’s OK with that. You’re forgiven. :rolleyes:
I wasn’t listening closely enough, but did Hairy Snowboarder say something to the effect that Dana Carvey was driving because he wasn’t so good at the mental challenges?
And speaking of names, I keep thinking that Marcus is Amani, because there used to be an NFL player named Amani [Toomer].
You and me both.
Hairy said that after the dramatic poem recital, Dana Carvey decided himself that he wasn’t going to do any more mental challenges, so he’d have to do all the physical ones. Of course, IIRC, Dana Carvey got the poem correct on his first try, but got sent back only because he wasn’t dramatic enough.
“It’s not a toomah!”
If Chris Berman didn’t refer to him as Amani “It’s Not A” Toomer, he should’ve.
Berman referred to him as The Well Dressed Amani Toomer.
This Giants fan would consistently shout out It’s Not a Toomah!!! after his catches.
He did whip out Amani “It’s Not A” Toomer at least once.
He caught himself coveting. To the devout, that’s a sin.
