Coupla years ago I registered my penis as a member.  
Then one day when putting a sock over it, I realized that was a mistake.

In my hometown newspaper last week 5 (FIVE!) births were commemorated. And 2 engangements, a wedding, a 50th anniversery, a 25th anniversery and 9 deaths were announced. Also, two local bands had shows locally, every school had some sort of Holiday Play, the high school hosted a basketball tournament and the Elks club held a food drive.

I will write a letter to the editor tomorrow to bitch about all the community news coverage. :rolleyes:

I’m sorry, but I’m fairly sure my Pitting of \*\*lissener \*\*a few months back was dumber than this, and I refuse to surrender the dunce hat. How about “the pit thread most revealing of the author’s lack of a life”?

My cat Vladimir would be old enough to post. He’s fifteen! But for me to register him he’d have to pony up the money, and I don’t think he has it.

Tobermory is almost old enough, at 12-1/2. But Attila will have to wait a long time, he’s only 1-1/2.

I think any of them would be smarter than the OP, who it appears has bowed out because his rant turned against him. Wuss.

Because he’s a cat, and ads are for lesser beings, like dogs. Or humans. 😃

Is this an admission of sock puppetry or did Marley tell you to stop trolling, and you figured you’d let us know that you’ll troll again later?

Nope, he was admitting to socks and trolling. He’s been banned.
