I’d been seeing this phrase all over the Dope, and had no idea what was going on. I’m not sure if I’m relieved or disturbed to learn that it’s all one guy that’s been doing it. ---

I blame all this quarry throwing shit on America’s new found slow metabolism. Its more complicated than calories in the quarry/calories out of the quarry. ---

If you’re gonna go all the way down to the quarry you gotta make a bigger splash. Fuck throwing stuff, drive your truck right the fuck in! You can always claim it was stolen, just like all the other vehicles on the bottom. ---

It was funny once. For 20 minutes. In 1960. ---

Let’s go to the quarry and throw stuff down there! What a great thing to be pitted over! I don’t drink, btw. ---

Like the hawk and the lion, every man must seek his quarry. But they eat theirs, and he must throw stuff in his. It was ever thus, and ever shall be. ---

I endorse this, but not for the reason you might expect. There was a good coat of snow, so my friends and I decided to take advantage of it. Real good coat, like there’s powdered sugar on top. I dropped in to the quarry and well… Just fuck that guy. ---

First off, what the hell is this meme supposed to mean? I look for something that it has in common in each thread. I try to parse its literal meaning. Nothing works. What is the point of this phrase? Two, is it bad that I’ve completely ignored this phrase entirely? And it’s not as if I have Bo on ignore or anything. It’s as if my brain decided, “This doesn’t make sense, so I’m not going to remember it.” And I’ve read all those threads and posted in many of them. Finally, while this might be better for ATMB, isn’t there an actual rule about this sort of thing? Isn’t posting the same thing over and over considered a form of spamming on this board? ---

It started on the SDMB when someone was telling a story about hacking their boss’s computer to substitute that phrase when the boss type LOL. So it has the same meaning as LOL. The phrase itself was borrowed from The Office, but didn’t mean LOL there. ---
