If we’re lucky, he’ll do a full faceplant right into a block of stone.

You are not only a liar, you’re stupid as fuck. When the purpose of not just the thread but the forum is specifically to express disapproval with someone, it’s hardly trolling to tweak someone’s nose, **T** who prolly isn’t Big.

I propose a new metric measurement for the Boards. Lets call it the Bo. No disrespect intended. After all, we measure radiation in “curies” and it fucking killed her! When this thread finally closes, the page count will be set. That page count, multiplied by the Raw Triviality Index, and further multiplied by the level of ire and fury displayed will give us the Bo Number, where this thread is the standard, as its Bo Number equals one.

Note that no one factor can result in a very high Bo number. It must provoke disproportionate ire and fury, it must be utterly lack any significance, and it must be longer than the ultimate number of pages of this thread to exceed the Bo Number of one.

You need not post your gasps of admiration and accolades, they are presumed. Not that it is unwelcome, mind you, but it annoys the hamsters.

As we all know, an annoyed hamster is an offended hamster.

It must also be defended to the utter, irrational death by a self-righteous douchebag. That’s the only way the thread would exceed the length of this one anyway.

It’ll be dug up for years to come. Eventually it’ll be set in stone.

I saw what you did there and it made me Let’s go to the quarry and throw stuff down there.

😛

I didn’t think it was as classy as my whoosh on **SenorBeef** , but it was good.

Did it now? Did it really? Did it really make you go down to the quarry and throw stuff down there? I think you just went down to the rockpile and gently laid some stuff down. Or, maybe you just thought about going down to the quarry and throwing stuff down there. But, everyone goes to the quarry and throws stuff down there differently, so who’s to judge?

Wow all these quarry threads are still going? I feel like we should rename the BBQ Pit to The Quarry and be done with it.
