I think high horse riding under the influence of vodka tonics can be hazardous to your message board cred. Giddy up, BPH. Your ass is out of the gate, and blowing hard.

Look man, I don't figure I have any "board cred" worth defending. If you disagree with the eyeno banning take it up with Jeff.Laodicean wrote:I think high horse riding under the influence of vodka tonics can be hazardous to your message board cred. Giddy up, BPH.

+2. Never liked eyeno one bit. Agree with JackRiddler- the whole thing's shitty. Agree with Barracuda- there are things more important than being right.

Grammar is pretty important. Proper punctuation, etc.barracuda wrote: Passion is a wonderful thing to have around here, but there's more important things in life than being right.
Both his words and manner of speech seemed at first totally unfamiliar to me, and yet somehow they stirred memories - as an actor might be stirred by the forgotten lines of some role he had played far away and long ago.

properly dressed for the occasion is a must


Mazars and Deutsche Bank could have ended this nightmare before it started.
They could still get him out of office.
But instead, they want mass death.
Don’t forget that.

Re: A Toast to Banned and Disappeared Posters
Very funny.
I think it only fair to warn you, barracuda: I have a degree in Jazz, the Mason Word and Second Sight.
Plus I'm ten times as paranoid as you. At the deli on the way home, after reading your post, I heard "Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue" on the radio. Don't think for a second that the implication escaped me.

Hey! What happened to Nordic?!
I missed seeing his posts, did a quick search and saw that his last post was on May 15th, clicked on his name — and saw, "The requested user does not exist."
But I know he existed once! — what happened to him?!

Nordic was suspended for a week or so, and I fear he may have cut the silver cord.* Please come back, Nordic!Simulist wrote:Hey! What happened to Nordic?!
*Unless temporary suspension also temporarily 'deletes' account info, which I doubt it does.

I feel bad because I think I behaved similarly in that thread (got off with a warning, I think).

Re: A Toast to Banned and Disappeared Posters
Hmm. Thank you, Elvis. I probably missed it because I tend to ignore Keyword Hijacking discussions. (As much as I am able.)
And Nordic, I think a lot of you. I sincerely hope to see you again.

Re: A Toast to Banned and Disappeared Posters
Yeah, I got one of those warnings too for that thread. Nordic got suspended. I was simply trying to troll the board with peaceful intents of just being a cocksucker too, in the spirit of jest and whatever else my mood fed me.
Hope you come back Nord.
