\ Sorry, **Dooku** had to be shot for that last one. **macabresoul** > [@](#): > > It’s all perspective my son. Why do you call the OP your son? Unless it is my father talking I get very pissed off at any one referring to me as ‘my son’. I feel it is very condescending to me and somewhat insulting to my father. Is it not considered condescending in California? As you can see from my location, it would be useful for me to know before I get pissed at someone for a cultural difference in the use of that phrase. ---

Most hockey teams are done for the season. Most of the hockey players are doing other things, possibly playing golf. However, this has been the state of affairs for quite a while now, and the jokes just aren’t funny anymore. Just let it go until next year. ---

As you can see from my location, it would be useful for me to know before I get pissed at someone for a cultural difference in the use of that phrase. \*\* Hmmm. Well, calling someone “my son” wouldn’t be considered condescending in Texas. It would be used in reference to a man who was younger than you, and would be taken as a compliment – well, maybe that’s an overstatement; it’s more like the cashier at the grocery calling you “hon”. I was just going to say that all blonde jokes have been beaten to death… I’ll just leave now and let you guys duke it out. ---

ALL of 'em. Thanks to the internet, if you want an original joke you have to think it up yourself. I guess this means the terrorists have won . . . ---

Carrottop references? Unless of course you want to see Carrottop himself as a joke that _ought_ to be beaten to death. Look at that! I’ve just contradicted my own self. ---

I swear to OG the fact that no one has mentioned OG makes OG angry! OG SMASH! It was funny when turdboy keep making that typo ages ago, but it has been way overused since then. No longer funny. ---
