I love this movie! Jimmy Rabbitte: What do you play? Failed Drug Buyer: I used to play football in school. Jimmy Rabbitte: I mean what instrument. Failed Drug Buyer: I don’t. Jimmy Rabbitte: Then what are you doing here? Failed Drug Buyer: Well, the line was so long I thought you were selling drugs. You should all go watch it now, don’t worry I’ll take care of the thread while you’re gone. ---

Hey, guys! guess what! I started reading some of the other threads on this message board! Did you know there are entire threads that are actually about people’s opinions on current events? And that some interesting ideas are exchanged in a civilized manner? Take this excerpt from a recent thread (which I can’t post a link to, because, well, you’ll see): > [@](#): > > **PointyHead** : Well, BPC, although I find your ideas somewhat distasteful, I will defend to the death your right to express them. > > **BPC** : I certainly disagree with your opinions, PointyHead, however, I respect the courage you exhibit in expressing them freely. This is great stuff! Well, talk to you all later! warning: the above is a spoof. No actual SDMB discussion was used in the quote. ---
