Hey PAW! We’re back in business! I just got an order for 3 Crosses…it’ll be just like Calvary! Heeeeyuuk
xanakis…you make me sweat blood with your tedious martyrdom
Um, you didn’t get “into trouble”: you had your threads closed. See the difference?
'Course, I’m not speaking to the future.

There was no need for you to start any new threads at all, Clare. You could have used the search function (see the upper right corner of this page) to find the thread you were looking for originally. Or if was Wishboneyou were looking for, clicking on the profile button under his posts will get you his email address, unless he decided not to share it with us.
Two scenarios:
-
Man walks into a bar. Quickly realizes he doesn’t like it. Leaves.
-
Man walks into a bar. Quickly realizes he doesn’t like it. Spends the next two hours being loudly and actively upset about the way the bar’s run.
Which one has a clue?
Kids (Clare and xanakis, that is), there are lots of MBs out there. If you’ve only been here for about fifteen minutes, and already you’re feeling put upon about the way you’ve been treated, what sort of psychic investment do you have in this place that makes you stick around?
If the problem’s us (the denizens of this board, including the mods), then you’ll be much happier at one of the thousands of MBs that have more pleasant folks than us. If the problem’s you, nobody’s gonna solve that problem quite so easily as you, but whining about us won’t make a dent in it.
Either way, you’ll be happier if you just leave us out of it. And, for that matter, so will we.
Speaking just for myself: Bye now.
Hey Cartooniverse - where the heck can I get one of those? I’ve checked every adult toy store in town, and they’re all out!
[sub]Why don’t adult toy stores sell hot pretzels? I just can’t figure it out…;)[/sub]
People might be confused about what you’re supposed to do with it. Imagine the kinds of lawsuits that could generate. :eek:
Well, Nostradamus does not say this, what he says is ‘Don’t attack a decision by a moderator’, a turn of phrase which he just checks.
He considers an attack to be a more serious proposition than a question, and he has consulted his dictionary to verify this.
Of course, his knowledge of the past is sometimes as good as his predictions for the future, which are basically crap, especially on the subject of football, but in this matter he is right on the money.
What’s Nostradamus’s view on referring to oneself in the third person. Jack really wants to know.
Jack Batty, he does this sometimes for variety.
He got the idea from some literary character or other, and the annoying thing is, he forgets who it was.
When Nostradamus remembers this guy’s name, he will email you accordingly with the desired information.
This is the promise of Nostradamus.
Of course, another possibility is that he just likes the sight of his own name.
Sounds like you’re imitating Damon Runyon.
Nostradamus, I for one would find it more than somewhat amusing if you would in fact post in the style of Nostradamus, that is, extremely obscure and enigmatic verse.
Jack is amused.
Do not forget to also be extremely ambiguous, so that, no matter what happens, your supporters can point to a verse which, they claim, predicted it.
Damon Runyon, for sure.
And Slip is sure that the character in question is none other than Harry the Horse.
Please continue. Slip is amused also.
I’m damned tired of every single one of these motherfucking “oh the mods were mean to me” threads. Just ban the whingeing immature self-absorbed motherfuckers and be done with it. All the do is distract from our real businesses, which is of course pointless arguments and the occasional alleviation of a bit of ignorance as a happy by product.
(sycophantic? anyone want to apply that adjective to me?)
JODI thinks COLLOUNSBURY ate some bad cheese.
Or Zathras.
And while we’re at it, what the fuck does “whingeing” mean? Is that like wheezing? Or winging? Or maybe it’s the wrong way to spell “whining?”
Fuckin’ Brits! Learn how to spell!
Esprix
[sub](Oh, did I forget to include a ;)? Sorry 'bout that…[/sub]
Now, Esprix, whinge is a perfectly acceptable word meaning “to complain peevishly.” And whingeing is an acceptable spelling, though not the preferred, which is whinging. In fact, whinge is even older than whine, though I have to admit I had never seen the word before coming to the SDMB.
Y’know, I kinda picture Clare as the kind of person who goes to sit on the toilet, planning to expel her bowels, and strains and strains and strains, but just can’t seem to shit. If she happened to reach around and feel 'tween her butt-cheeks, she’d find a nice piece of blockage securely wedged in her sphincter. However, since this action would require conscious thought, she just refrains from shitting until it backs up and spews out of her oral orifice… then onto the keyboard, where it is subsequently posted onto the message board.
Clare Ashworth - President and Member of the Buttplug Association of AMerica.
Well, I hope you all have it out of your systems now! Esprix’s derogatory remarks about Brits, and Spoofe’s toilet metaphors are bizarre in the extreme.
What odd, dysfunctional people they must be.
