Somebody was going to do it in this thread or the other one. I couldn’t resist, sorry.

I actually checked first and it was _fldInputTSPTotalPerNo_. But I forgot what the damn point of the thread was and was going to comment on TMWTGG’s post since I’m the one who said that:

**The Man With The Golden Gun** , that was me being a dumbass.

I liked both of them. I liked the 70’s better, but I think that was because I was born in the 80’s.

But, Michael Ian Black is the **most annoying** person I can think of. He is blatantly not funny, and an ass. He tore apart a plant and thought it was funny.

Yeah, there were a few things that bothered me. _Three’s Company_ came out in 1977, yet they put it in the 1979 hour. There were a few others, but I can’t think of them now. It’s bad when a 17 year old can pick out things wrong in a show about a decade that took place before he was born.

My post from a thread in IMHO avoit I Love the 70’s

Part of an IM conversation I had with **Spoz** recently. For those of you wondering, the image DID explain the wackiness.
