I’m still happy you guys dedicated this thread to me!
How can we hope for peace in our time, when even the** Ogre **and a Troll can’t get along?
jadailey, thanks for the welcome earlier, sorry it too me so long to respond. I hope you’re not holding your breath while you wait for this lobotomite to give you an answer. He’s still trying to wrap his mind around the concepts of the TimeCube AND develop his particular brand of witty repartee at the expense of the Farmer.
I didn’t think it would be so easy to disable his central core… reminds me of how easy it was for Kirk and his crew in “I, Mudd” from Star Trek: The Original Series. Episode #41, if you must know.
And did THAT answer your question, ScumBoy?
Awww, Doors, you know better than to leave us hanging:

You know what, FarmerOak?
I think you’re gonna be OK. Keep up the good work.
That’s like a zit feeling proud that someone took the time to pop it.
Thanks, dude. Not bad for an old Jarhead, eh?

"So what you’re saying is that, through 20+ years, several different leader and personnel changes, Pink Floyd still synched every single album they produced with a movie? Dave Gilmour, whose overall dislike for Roger Waters is pretty well known, (and vice versa) continued in this tradition even so? I mean - the two of them were never in the same ROOM during the production of “The Final Cut.” I sincerely doubt they’d have put the substantial effort required into sync-ing it up with a movie together.
Explain how this makes sense. Don’t just say “that’s how it is,” which thus far is all you’ve done. In BOTH threads. Explain how this could possibly have come about given the range of personalities involved. "
–me–
No, i don’t mean that. You see, the synchronicities started after Pink Floyd made their first soundtrack. Syd Barrett wasn’t in the band anymore. And through a long time, only 1 leader has quit, Roger Waters. Dave Gilmour doesn’t really hate Roger Waters. Nor does Roger Waters hate David Gilmour. (And they were in the same room together during the recording of The Final Cut.) During his “In The Flesh” tour, (Roger) after the song Wish You Were Here, he said “How I wish they were here.” Meaning, of course, Pink Floyd (not the bassist, probably).

“I don’t see Casablanca or The Wizard of Oz on that list, either.”

Point is…

You might consider thinking for yourself, instead of letting others do it for you.
–me–
ok, i’ll make up my own interpretations, and not the person who created the images.
–davy–
And what the hell does it have to do with Planet of the Apes (another non-Kubrick film)?
–me–
its synched with it.
–dork–

Also, notice that the synchronicities started after Pink Floyd made their first soundtrack.
Which implies that the synchs are more than just synchs, they’re ‘soundtracks’ of some sort. Well, Dark Side of the Moon makes a lousy soundtrack for The Wizard of Oz.
–me–
it might be quite lousy to you, maybe because you don’t like Pink Floyds music, or maybe you don’t like the movie. Or maybe (probably) you haven’t even watched the synch and you’re making shit up. Kinda lkke on this shit site http://www.timecube.com

To synch The Wall with Alice In Wonderland, you must skip the song Comfortably Numb.
That will depend, I’m sure, on which Alice in Wonderland you’re talking about: The 1903 version? 1915? The TV series? Which? Kubrick, by the way, doesn’t appear to have been involved with any of them.
–me-- The 1951 Disney animated classic.
Oh, and why do you have this crazy idea that every album is synched with only Kubrick films? Did i ever type that?
-shit-
Taunt Gene Ray at your peril, bub. The man’s a stone-cold GENIUS.
See, most Dopers are capable of appreciating the goofiness of the Timecube. Inasmuch as you are NOT a true Doper, but merely an interloping troll, I cannot explain the meaning of “irony” to you. Nor shall I try.
And I can’t explain the cardboard belt reference to you. It comes from the funniest movie in the history of cinema, and everybody who needs to get it, gets it.
And NO, it’s not synched to ANYTHING. Although there ARE some delightful little songs in it.
I’M WEARING A CARDBOARD BELT!
–me-- why didn’t you say anything in your defense about your fucked up site?
–Ayesha–
Oh this one is lovely isn’t he.
Tell me how does your mother feel about you referring to a woman you have never met or even heard of a whore ?
Tell you what let me know if you’re going to be in Houston anytime soon. I’ll give you twenty bucks bucks to walk up to my husband and tell him I’m one. The LIONsob hasn’t had a chance to play with a mouse in a long time.
–me-- i’d whip you husband so bad… You know why? Because i’m only a kid. And kids are stronger than everyone else. (and because your husband is a puss face)
–shit–I didn’t think it would be so easy to disable his central core… reminds me of how easy it was for Kirk and his crew in “I, Mudd” from Star Trek: The Original Series. Episode #41, if you must know.
–me-- “cough” nerd. Oops, did i type that out loud??? So uh, shit. Do you think that in the next show of star trek, that the super-flux capacitater will help the kryptonites? I sure hope so!
I’m up above the time cube. I’m smarter than gene. Compared to me, gene is a retard. He rides the short bus to work. You know which one, the one with a lot of exits.
Cardboard belt!
I yield the floor to my colleagues, reserving the right to speak again when I stop laughing.
time cube is stupid. gene is stupid. i piss upon both of them. Or am i stupid? I worship the word. I was taught by stupid teachers who were too stupid to get their teaching degree. I guess farmers mother is stupid too. and his wife. and his daddy.
So, how about dem apples?
And I fart in your general direction.
Yep.
Great. Not just an idiot, but a fundie idiot.
I’m beginning to suspect homeschooling.
:rolleyes: Dude, why won’t you just go the fuck away?
Cite, please? Oh, sorry. I forgot. Random conjecture presented as fact, as usual.
So why did Waters sue Gilmour et al for use of the Pink Floyd name? Why not just stay with the band? Other artists have done solo stuff during down time. HE wanted to be Pink Floyd. HE didn’t think Gilmour deserved it, since he hadn’t been around as long (never mind Mason & Wright). Wright, you may notice, does not appear on “The Final Cut.” Why? He, too, could not stand to be around Waters. When Waters left, he returned. (BTW - Waters sued BEFORE Wright’s return.)
'Course, none of this matters. I don’t care whether the supposed syncs exist or not, and I’m certainly not going to waste my time and effort experimenting. I saw Dex’s trial, and I read David B’s treatise when it originally appeared. I’m interested to know how you can defend your position given this evidence and the fact, that, as mentioned before, nobody else has agreed with you.
FarmerOak, rest assured, I’m not waiting for a coherent response. I’m just amused by the squirmings I see as he tries to avoid giving one.
Oh, and Scummy? You mess with Ayesha at your own peril.
BTW - if you must quote - PLEASE use the quote button at the bottom of the post you’re quoting. As I did here. Makes it so much easier for the rest of us. Of course, if you’re so smart, you can figure out the coding on your own.
All together now: WHOOOOOSH!!!
Anybody know how to get various kitty stains out of a carpet - hairballs, urine/spraying, yak, stuff like that? I’m helping someone renovate their house and she’s got 32 cats, and needless to say the bedroom is a mess. We’re renting a carpet cleaner, but I’m more interested in learning how to get things out spot-by-spot, for future reference.
Anyone?
Esprix
Awww, Smeg, not YET. The little turd HONESTLY BELIEVES that that’s my homepage! Can’t I have a LITTLE fun here?
Wow. I got called a nerd by a teenage virgin with delusions of adequacy. My entire life experience to date, invalidated with one cutting remark direct from the Cool Kids’ Table in the cafeteria. How EVER shall I go on?
Please, ScOo_gUy… tell me how to be cool. I’ll be your bestest friend EVER. I’ll subscribe to every paranoid fantasy and crackpot theory you come up with, just let me in The Cool Kids’ Club.
To my new friends on the SDMB: I hate to abandon you like this, but if my new friend ScOo_gUy can get me In With the In Crowd, then I’m outta here faster than a fat kid in a dodgeball game.
Esprix: Never seen you post off-topic like that, but, IMHO, you need to take whatever money you were gonna spend on a carpet cleaner, and spend it on the first, second and third therapy sessions for your friend who has, if I read your post correctly, 32 goddamn cats.
Well, if you had left it at the hairballs and cat yak, you’d been fine with spot remover and the carpet cleaner. But you mention spraying/urine. Good luck. You might as well rip the carpet up and put some kind of sealer on the wood beneath it. That stuff is potent.
That’s why I plan on burning my house down when I move, and only have 10 cats. It’d be easier than cleaning it.
Sonny boy why don’t you give it up and go night night ? Every year we have little kiddles like you come here and think that because they have a computer they should just say whatever comes to mind no matter how stupid or childish. Wrong. They should spend some time lurking and learning what this place is about and what kind of people are here.
This does not apply to all young people who post here, I have met some amazing teens here, kids I am proud to know. Who have a brain and use it. So far you have not shown yourself to be one of those. Why not follow their lead ? If you are going to argue at least do so using facts, not personal attacks on people’s family members.
One last thing, the child opened his mouth and spewed ** "–me-- i’d whip you husband so bad… You know why? Because i’m only a kid. And kids are stronger than everyone else. (and because your husband is a puss face) " **
Hmmm, you know he has been accused of being many things, but never a puss face. I will say this much, at least he knows what to do with a puss when I put it in his face.
Now why don’t you run along until you learn to play nicely ?
Or at least to wipe your own chin, we don’t have time to keep showing you where all the drool is.
Ayesha , who is actually in a pretty good mood. And for that you should be very glad.
It’s called a hijack, dear. Work with us.
Yes, well, she was a rescue worker, and all these cats have feline leukemia or AIDS, and nobody wanted them. How could she turn them down? They are all the most loving, affectionate cats I’ve ever seen. And, surprisingly, the house does not smell like there are 32 cats living there.

Sounds like a plan! I do have friends that swear by Febreeze - does it work?
Esprix
Hey, don’t get me wrong, Esprix… I love my cats. But 32 seems… excessive.
And count me as one of the people who swears by the sychronized healing powers of Febreze. But you’ve DEFINITELY got your work cut out for you.
BTW, in the spirit of your hijack, I am currently reading all the JDT threads. You are one funny dude. Did you move to San Diego yet? We can use some more like you down here.
Try to keep up, dear - I moved to San Diego six months ago (and am loving it so far). But thank you for the kind compliment, and I will definitely find out if she has a 55 gallon drum of Febreeze on hand!
I’m also helping her renovate her house - who knew I could be this butch?
Esprix
Too funny! Sorry, I haven’t gotten through all of Jack-Off’s threads yet. Thank GOD I stayed home from work today, or I wouldn’t have gotten this vital info.
Glad you made it to San Diego. We must have a beer. You can give me all the Dope on local Dopers, etc. I like you.
