  1. I'm not up on your rules but do I have to wait for the emoticon queen to respond before I respond or can I respond his non-response to my response to your original post at anytime? Your response to this would be appreciated.

     

    Have at it but be careful. If you throw out too many arguments about the topic itself it could be a double hedged sword. On one hand you could really pile up a bunch of fake statistics and stuff and dig him a big hole. I will do minimal or no fact checking so it could work. On the other hand he could lurk for a while and use your arguments against you.

     

    Until he shows up I think you're best sticking to personal attacks and maybe making up some stuff about him like...."OC in Buffalo was kicked out of the American Software Association of America for being dumb".....I would have no way to check on something like that now that Beerboy got the Googlebot captured so I would probably just believe it and OC in Buffalo would have to spend time restoring whatever credibility he thinks he might need.

  2. Can I have the TGreg99 spot???

     

    You are slated for a first round slot already. I would want someone not on the original list to take the spot as the winner wil be bumped if TGreg99 returns. I think he may have been kidnapped by Ennifer as a decoy in her plot to marry Sage and it would be unfair to have him eliminated because of Beerboy's abject stupidity.

  3. thanks, i'll pass. i'm not clever enough to make violence funny.

     

    Violence is in the top 10 things that can be made funny. Think about all of those guys on America's funniest home videos getting hit in the nuts by a batted ball.

     

    Anyway, you are out of the TGreg99 thread but stay tuned. If Gary M and Jim in Anchorage keep on the same pace in their riveting discourse, you could very well be declared the winner of that thread. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOORING!!!!!!!!!!

  4. Yesterday afternoon, my friend and roommate comes into the apartment just after heading out the door to work with a very frazzled and panicked look on her face. She asks me if I would come listen to her car cause something was very wrong. I went out and stood near the car as she started it up, and the noise was so startling that I literally jumped back thinking that something had exploded. I was planning to call AAA to have her car towed when her son-in-law, a mechanic, came out to take a look. He got under the car and said he knew exactly what the problem was...the entire catalytic converter assembly had been removed.

     

    My friend called the cops and filed an insurance report, and after the police finished writing up their own report they explained that there have been THIRTY reports just in our area alone over the last month. Apparently this is a very widespread problem, as thieves are stealing this part of the exhaust since it's made from platinum. I went online to see how much press the issue has received, and it looks like this is a very serious and growing problem.

     

    Anyway, many of you may already know about this, but I don't recall anyone posting about it so thought I'd give you a head's up. We live in a gated community in what is considered to be a relatively safe area with a low crime rate, so if it's happening here, it can happen anywhere.

    1. Women drivers :wallbash:

     

    2. I smell a Howitzer prize if you do a web show on this.

  5. He's Hispanic. Do you have a problem with that?

     

    Other than its influence on John Adams claiming soccer is so popular, no I don't. Anyway, I just figured his name was Greg.

     

    Is Greg English for Jesus?

  6. I thought losing only helped when we lost to a bad team. :unsure:

     

    A few years back when we played the NFC West they were all bad teams so that is probably where you got confused. It really doesn't matter if you lost to a good or bad team until you get about 5 levels into the tiebreakers. A loss to an NFC team helps at level 2.

  7. This is how we were taught. From the Andy Griffith Show Opie and the Bully.

     

    Opie is having to put up with a bully, Sheldon, who is demanding 5 cents from him every morning on his way to school. Sheldon says the alternative is a knuckle sandwich. As Opie keeps asking everyone for an extra nickel, including Barney, the Deputy decides to follow him top learn what is going on. Learning that Opie is being bullied, Andy tries to get him to understand that often, bullies are all talk and no action and that facing him, regardless of the outcome, is better than being scared all of the time. The result is a black eye for Opie but freedom from Sheldon.

    A bully named Sheldon?

  8. I'll go with true. How many of you people complain when Apple rolls something out and it doesn't work right? I have a friend who took her phone back because she hated the new operating system. Hell if Apple makes mistakes why not cut our government some slack. I have all the faith in the world that with the government's unlimited taxing ability they will:

     

    1. Not only get this thing fixed but create a super website of the likes mankind has ever seen.

    2. Create (or save, not sure at this point) hundred's of thousands of jobs putting out of work programmers to work getting this done. I do career fairs all the time (doing one today as a matter of fact) and you'd be amazed at the number of IT people out of work because of Bush's tax cuts and the war in Iraq and Afghanistan. They will all be smiling at the fair today because they know that call from Obama will be coming any minute now.

     

    PS - I am super busy the rest of the day so will probably not be able to post here until much later. However I think I've won already.

     

    You already broke the rules. Don't argue at all until sides are agreed upon or assigned by the judge. Me.

     

    Don't worry about being busy today. You have time unless OC in Buffalo supplies enough pwnage.

  9. New Round 1 match:

     

    Please stay out of this thread unless your name is Chef Jim or OC in Buffalo.

     

    Premise: The Obamacare web site is merely experiencing start-up/growing pains and will work smoothly in the near future without a major overhaul.

     

    Pick a side; true or false on the above statement.

     

    Pick a side first, do not start arguing your point. If you both pick the same side, your assignment will be given by the judge. Me.

     

    Also, please note that the nature of this argument should not be about Obamacare itself, but about the technical aspects of the web site. If politics is involved with that, fine. If you go on a rant about how this new commie health care is good and/or bad, you do so at your own risk.

  10. Please don't let my business interrupt you all from moaning and groaning about the slowdown in this contest. Please don't let the laziness of some contestants have you shift the blame away from me. I mean it's not like I have a multi-trillion dollar organization to run or anything.

     

    I'm sure if you had the chance to focus on this contest, which can certainly wait if everyone would be patient, or focus on a kid named Sage being fooled into a marriage proposal by a shape shifter code named Ennifer who fooled him into thinking she was someone else but has really doomed him to a life of sexual servitude that you would focus on this contest.

     

    Please ignore the fact that a stupid assistant of mine screwed up and exposed the Googlebot to capture by said shape shifter when she made herself look a freight elevator IN A ONE STORY BUILDING FOR PETE'S SAKE BEERBOY and now Ennifer is in possession of the bot so our whole tie breaker system is screwed up.

     

    Please focus on complaining.

     

    Update:

     

    KD in CT has defeated Gatorman in an unscheduled Round 1 match up due to this brilliant post.

     

    Gatorman is re-entered in the competition as I have personally dropped out due to my focus on Sage's well being and the temporary loss of my Googlebot.
