Holy fuck, is this the campus commons?

Speaking of large dicks… well, I don’t want to get into specific numbers here. Let’s just say that I’m hung like a horse.

Okay, a pony.

Alright, fine, a My Little Pony. That’s not the issue here. The issue is:

This is exactly why it’s important to be specific. If you speak in generalities, two things are going to happen: people you aren’t talking about are going to assume you mean them, and people you are talking about are going to assume you’re talking about someone else.

Plus, pit threads are much more interesting when they get personal.

I did not learn it in class yesterday, I learned it in class three years ago. That’s why I was having trouble remembering the specifics. :o
[sub]Now where’s that goddamn tape measure?[/sub]

Dick-measuring contests? In every thread? Then just what does that make the contributions of yours truly, and others of my ilk? Shall our posts be dismissed as mere persiflage? Are ball-less wonders denied the right to debate? Must lickers defer to stickers?

You could always debate breast circumference.

What are you, twelve?

People here value having the true facts. The real deal. Or, as they say, The Straight Dope. That’s the priority.

We like it here. You don’t like it, why stay?

Doesn’t count unless you spell it correctly.

I’m typing this message by hunt-and-peck.

And I’m not using my fingers.

Yeh, Bryan, and I suppose you can write the Gettysburg Address in the snow in one take, huh? :wink:

Someone is having a bad day… Or not enough Dope :smiley:

With enough coffee in me, sure.

In response to :

I am not sure I expressed my idea( actually I am convinced that I failed miserably) I have never considered any statement of mine to be anything other than persiflage. But my reference to measuring ones penis was intended to be understood as a metaphor. Members of both genders are included because I really am not interested in the actual deminsions of anyones anatomy, I was just commenting on what I percieved to be humorous.(I was obviously wrong)
Cervaise: ADHD is curable…

Bryan: What is the mesage to which you allude? You claim to be typing it using the hunt and peck method without useing your hands, but you never actually asked a question.
kaylasdad99: :cool:

I like you, askeptic. You’re amusingly earnest.

If you are sincere, I am willing to like you to. :smiley:

Is not!

Is too, Mr. Poopy-Pants!

Man: No it isn’t, an argument is an intellectual process… contradiction is just the automatic gainsaying of anything the other person says.

Mr Vibrating: No it isn’t.

Not to interject a non-humorous, sincere notion into the fun we’re all having, but to me one of the best things about this board is all the knowledge, peripheral or otherwise, that you are exposed to on this board. What a much more dull and lackluster place this would be if people like EddyTeddyFreddy weren’t able to sling words like “persiflage” around.

And while I can understand that someone having their post corrected on spelling or grammar can be annoying, embarrassing or intimidating, I think the overall result is positive. Posters are motivated to improve their spelling, grammar and how to organize their thoughts or point of view, and the rest of us benefit from the learning experience to be had by taking note of all the verbal shrapnel flying around.

(And as an aside, it’s nice to find a place where most of the posters know how to spell and punctuate. I got so sick of AOL, Compuserve, etc. where, if you could spell and punctuate, it was a dead giveaway you were over 40 yrs. old. I’ve seen “to” used for “too,” and “there” used for “they’re” or “their,” or vice versa, so often that I now find myself misspelling them too and I have to stop and think every time I start to spell one of them.)

All in all, bring on the corrections!

What exactly are you willing to like him to?

You cought me. :slight_smile:
I knew I should have said “as well”. :slight_smile:
I bow to your brilliance and ability to focus on the substantive issues. :rolleyes:
You are the prepositional master. Except you forgot that ending a sentence with a preposition is usually frowned upon. (apon, upon, I never can remember which is correct, but I bet somebody will chime in and dazzle me with their brilliance) :slight_smile:

{ the above quote is deliberately innaccurate (yeah, spelling, SMD, but hey, I find it much more efficient to make these insincere parenthetical apologies about my spelling which show off my phenomenally phast typing skills, rather than actually fixing my spelling mistakes as I type and notice them, and besides, I don’t want to look like one of you pompous fools who I won’t name who know how to use spell-chek) for parodical purposes }

Yeah, yeah, yeah…

I feel it’s necessary to invoke gadfly at this juncture:
