Sad lot

The BBQ Pit
41

Remember when your kindergarten teacher told you not to bring snacks unless you brought enough for everyone? Autolycus thought she was referring to prepositions.

When my coworker pisses me off, I don’t deck him for it. That’s part of what makes me a “good employee”. But it doesn’t do anyone any good for me to run around pointing a finger at him and glaring. Sure, I can say I’m a “good employee” because I haven’t fucked him up, but what the fuck is the point if I don’t even say what he did that pissed me off?

Cryptoderk, you truly are a pinnacle of wit and insight. How’s that workin’ out for you?

[QUOTE=Cryptoderk]
I take your point. I was just trying to be a good SDMB citizen by not posting my thoughts in the actual thread, thus avoiding hijacking it.

How on earth can the OP hijack the thread?!

You’d be surprised. :smiley:

I think Cryptdoderk meant he made this OP rather than thread-shitting in the other thread that he thinks is so sad. Which is what we are supposed to do, but we are also expected to exercise some judgement and not make incredibly lame Pit threads, either.

I have no comment on the thread in question, but it is annoying, when perusing the dope for fresh content, to see the same old multi-page game thread taking up space in the New Posts search. As I have said before, I wish there was an “Ignore Thread” feature so one can have a higher percentage of “fresh” threads come up.

How sad can you get!?

Is this a challenge?
Okay, let me see.

:frowning: :frowning: :frowning: :frowning: :frowning:

Wow. Pretty sad.

I think I can do better, though.

Whew. Prit near tuckered out from all the saddifying.

I think I still have some left in me, though. Let me get a quick cup of coffee.

Okay. Here we go.

:frowning: :frowning: :frowning:

Ow!

Sorry, I tripped. And that felt like a pretty good start, too.

All right. Here we go.

Going for the gold here.

Dang it!

And that was going so well.

I’m going to regroup and come back. Wish me luck in my next attempt.

Not bad, not bad at all. And quite pretty, too. It would be even prettier if you threw some confused smileys in there, too. And maybe some big grins.

A few things (I’ve just got back from a job interview in which I made the final two, but not the final one… so I’ve drunk a lot)

Cervaise… that was funny

Rigamorle… fantastic

fetus… because I’ve been suspended already, I was supressing the urge to point the finger openly at the co-worker. Instead, I was pointing the finger in the smoking room, where all the cool people are. Dig?

George Kaplin… Excellent work. I didn’t say you weren’t funny (and that post was quite funny) - I said you were sad. Convince me otherwise, dear sir!

No.

Cryptodork, you ever had an idea that got 1000+ replies from the board?

*** Cryptoderk** spends his weekends staggering drunk around shopping malls, trying to look down on teenagers but failing because he feels giddy*

[QUOTE=Vinyl Turnip]
This OP is the equivalent of approaching a lively birthday gathering in a restaurant and saying “you know, you guys look really fucking stupid wearing those hats.”

I.e., something we’ve probably all wanted to do at some point, but ought to resist out of politesse.

Sometimes I get the urge to point out to someone that their baby is really quite ugly - so far I’ve fought it
