Although not as cool as someone who would use that pic as an avatar.
Disappointed they didn't have a big salad, but I had delicious sundae.

No wonder I didn't understand the love for that avatar.
The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.
If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.

I'd prefer a cup of earl grey, my snuggie and a Bold and the Beautiful marathon over that hernia inducing sitcom..

The only person giving grief is green94, and I'm pretty sure that no-one cares what he thinks. Dubby, God love him, just has horrible taste.
And the person in the picture is me. Contrary to popular belief, Michael and I are not lovers - it's more of an open relationship.

Re: 2011 Boogs nomination thread
Come on Rod, we still share a fondness of the Simpsons.
I think there is something wrong with me. Until Worm revealed his dark side, I thought I was the only person who hated Seinfeld.
I tried watching it, but it just made me want to hurt people. Most annoying characters in history!

2 weeks ago I tried watching it, hoping it was an acquired taste. It wasn't and I found myself annoyed with the characters as well

Re: 2011 Boogs nomination thread
Your comment reminded me of another Simpsons quote, from Hans Moleman:
"You wasted 5 minutes of my life and I want them baaaack. Oh, I'd only waste them anway".

Best first post and funniest post
Gramsy 23:
Hi all. I'm not a Raiders fan, but I do hold a special connection with Bruce Stadium it being the first stadium I visited (even sat in Big Mal's old locker). Anyway to cut a long story short, I joined because I know you all love the Tongue and I want to share in the Tongue love this Saturday. Might come join yas in the away supporter bay! I even put together some words, a little song to salute the Tongue on his last game in Qld.
Here it is - I hope you can join in. To the tune of 'Forever Young'
Forever Tongue
We wish you could stay forever Tongue
We thought that you would play forever, forever, forever.
Forever Tongue
You're Canberra's favourite rednut, son
We're gonna do it tough without ya - our Tonguey, our Alan Tongue
Looking to secure a ranga wig too! Forever Tongue!

Re: 2011 Boogs nomination thread
Is there a category in which I can vote for BPB's use of photographic media?
Son, we live in a world that has forums, and those forums have to be guarded by Mods. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Nickman? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Lucy, and you curse GE. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know -- that GE’s moderation, while tragic, probably saved lives; and my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, keeps threads on track and under the appropriately sized, highlighted green headings.
You want moderation because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that forum -- you need me on that forum. We use words like "stay on topic," "use the appropriate forum," "please delete." We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very moderation that I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather that you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you get a green handle and edit a post. Either way, I don't give a DAMN what you think about moderation.
