> [@IvoryTowerDenizen](#): > > 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. Original quote from [_The Office_](http://www.theofficequotes.com/season-5/frame-toby) Phyllis: Where’s your place? Jim Halpert: [awkwardly] Oh, it’s on, uh, Lyndon Ave.? By the quarry? Phyllis: [disappointingly] Oh. Creed: Cool beans man. I live by the quarry. We should hang out by the quarry and throw things down there! Jim Halpert: Definitely we should. ---

He’s hitting us over the head with it. Look, I LOVE non-sequitors. “Your mom.” “No u.” “Cool story, bro.” All that shit. Love it. But it’s only funny when used appropriately. He’s just going into threads and posting it as the first post. Even “FIRST POST!” is funnier than that. If he was subtle about it and used it, say, in the middle of two posters going on and on about semantics it’d be hilarious. But just typing it for the sake of typing it? That’s fucking lame. ---

That’s fucking lame. No you’ve gotten me wrong. I know it’s _extremely_ not funny, I’m saying the entire board isn’t very funny. Every 1920’s death ray, once in the 60’s for five minutes, whatever idiotic overdone joke…he is far from the only one who drove something into the ground. It’s such bizarre behavior to me, do the people typing out these played out jokes REALLY not think, “God, this isn’t at all funny, why am I typing it?” during? Why would you intentionally post something lame for lameness’ sake if you DONT think it’s funny? ---

In Spain, quarries are called “canteras”. However, the word is also used to refer to youth academies and farm teams organized by sports clubs. ---

> [@Musicat](#): > > Is that where you Spaniards throw shit? No, but in Spain, Spaniards throw tomatoes at each other at the La Tomatina festival in Buñol on the last Wednesday in August. Other times in Spain, what is called “mierda” is often thrown at the Portuguese. ---

That’s fucking lame. Let’s go to the quarry and throw stuff down there! You don’t even understand what it means, but you think it’s lame. It’s _not_ a non-sequitor; it’s a perfectly cromulent sequitor, in fact. I don’t care if I’m the first post or the 1,000th. If it’s the right thing to say, I’ll say it. 😃 ---
