Boycott and Fuck any commercial that promotes shitass customer behavior

OK, now I’m confused. I thought they only allowed you to change your user name for a good reason. For example, Libertarian’s change to Liberal may not have been thought important, but it represented a philosophical point for him. Other good reasons might be if you picked a stupid name before realizing that you wanted to discuss more weighty measures and be taken seriously, or if your name was too similar to someone else’s.

There is no way you can convince me that he did it because his new name has some special meaning, and his new name wasn’t similar to anyone else that I know. I would say that he is just trying to escape his inane posting history, but here he goes doing the same stupid shit again. So, why did the powers that be allow it?

I believe everyone gets at least one name change request. I changed mine when I realized the name I actually wanted wasn’t being used and because I just wasn’t used to the new name. Not a very profound reason but it was allowed.

IIRC, a baked potato has over twice as much potassium (900 mg) as a banana (400 mg). I’ve always been curious why “we all know” that eating a banana is what you do if need potassiium. Is it a conspiracy or just exceptional performance on the part of the banana lobby?

Somehow, I think if the Giants had broken out a chafer of baked potatoes in the third quarter of the Super Bowl, they might have had trouble getting the players to eat them.

Well, sure, but only because the atheletic trainers never bring sour cream and bacon bits.

Wow, the OP is really reaching to draw these conclusions about the commercial. The way I see it, the two friends are at the pharmacy picking up woman A’s prescription. As the pharmacist is counseling woman A about her meds, woman B comments that she doesn’t have to take any blood tests for her BC bills.

Woman A thinks about it for awhile, then hands (doesn’t throw, doesn’t fling, doesn’t shove) the bag back to the pharmacist before she pays for it. Actually, I think she even smiles at him when she does it. In no way did I interpret this as “shitass customer behavior.” Unless, of course, changing your mind about buying something is terrible behavior.

::gasp:: Next thing you know they’ll be demanding steak an’ lobster, pwease, to go along with their blood test free birth control. Dumbass heathens.

Well, which is it? If I’m boycottin’ them, I can’t get close enough to fuck ‘em. And if I’m fucking them, well then, I sure ain’t boycottin’ 'em.

Everyone knows that the shape of the banana allows it to get into your bloodstream quicker and easier so it’s potassium, though not as much as the baked potato, has more bioavailablity.
Wait a minute, maybe it wasn’t the bloodstream I was thinking of the banana getting into easier than a potato.

Full circle – you’ve proven god exists.

Wow and I was just going for a subtle dirty joke!

Wait, so god exists? I’m in trouble now. :eek:

[Cat_Whisperer]

My god likes dirty jokes.

[Hostile_Dialect]

And footbaths.

[Shirley_Ujest]

Wait a second… God has feet?

I just always pictured him just floating around, kinda like Peeves.

Thank you for sharing that. It was a lovely biblical story.

It is. Almost makes you wish Quentin Tarentino had directed “The Passion of the Christ.”

Yep, this is his new user name.

Sorry to interrupt, but what the fuck does it mean? His username, I mean - his post means nothing. Nothing lucid, anyway.

It’s a string of internet abbreviations. TLDR-Too long, didn’t read; JK-Just Kidding; LOL-Laughing On Line/Laughing Out Loud; etc.

It’s clearly preferential treatment of bananas at the expense of the far more superior potato. I am waiting for those damn banana quotas at the market because you know it’s inevitable. Even if the inevitability is a fallacy, I am not wavering. The potato will not be as competitive at the national grocery chains and end up in some discount bin in a Wal-Mart Super Center or Sam’s Club. This banana dominance could impact the opportunities for sour cream. Think about it.
I am only buying potatoes – fuck the banana with its artificially low price and low potassium level.

[EddyTeddyFreddy]

Fine. You come up with a potato that bakes, splits, butters, sour-creams and bacon-bits itself and maybe I’ll give up the quick convenience of the banana.
