In 45 minutes to go home...
I just figured whenever there is a heated discussion someone needs to threaten to leave the site.
Eh, anyways.
What is your favorite blond joke?

Ha, yes- it would have a total breach of proper protocol without the dramatic announcement.
Ooh-- and don't forget the part about your feelings being hurt; that's also a part of the Handbook to Internet Forum Drama.-
Also I need to blame the moderators and everyone for not rushing to my defense.
-
Ah-- quite right, that's gotta be somewhere on the checklist, too. And can you muster some tears? "Typing through the tears," or something to that effect? It's classic.
-
You also neglected to point out where "those who cared to get in touch with you" could find you after you'd made your dramatic exit. -
Ohhhhh good call...
Also I need to bring up some inane discussion that happened weeks ago and cite that. -
With direct links to it, for convenience.
-
oh I forgot... remember you can find me at pointlessbanter.net
-
LMAO!!!! brought back some good memories. -
You've also forgotten to include references to the caring people who have e-mailed or posted in your shoutbox about how right you are and how you've been mistreated. Of course, you must intimate (or state) that these people are too intimidated to post their support in the forum. Probably because of the cliques and those receiving preferential treatment from the management.

LMFAO-
DON'T LAUGH AT MY PAIN.
-
but it's such a funny pain ...
-
funny like retarded hookers... wait I was just told that wasn't funny
-
you're such a poor, picked on and maligned white man.
there's just no room left for you in this world.
*snickers* -
I am disenfranchised
-
what!? men can't vote now???
-
Damn straight... there has been a revolution
-
oic ... but GAY guys can vote, right?
then it's all good. -
Just another way people are holding the white man down.
-
i have decided not to touch that one ... there are too many bad, bad, baaaaaad places it could go.
lol -
Like there is anything that we said that was right
-
true. still, i have limits to what i'll allow myself to say ... err, write.
just remember, god fist loves you. -
God fists me on a daily basis
-
POW! RIGHT IN THE KISSER!
-
-
Hm, I have no idea how many blonds there are here ... and being male, I have a naturally-occuring target painted on my butt. -
favourite "blonde" joke ... how are charlie weiss and pat roberson alike?
..
..
..
cuz they're both paid ungodly amounts of money to holler JESUS CHRIST every weekend ....
okay, so neither of them are blonde in terms of hair colour ... but it's still my favourite blonde joke.-
I like that one...

Paris Hilton.-
You win. That one will be hard to top.

A Mexican man, an Irish man, and a blond man are working together on a construction site. At lunchtime, they all sit down side by side on a beam several stories above the ground and open their lunchboxes. The Mexican man says, "Tacos again...if I open this lunch box tomorrow and find tacos, I swear I'm going to jump off this beam." The Irish guy opens his lunch box and says "Corned beef again. If I find corned beef in here tomorrow, I'm going to join you jumping off that beam." The blond guy opens his lunch box, shakes his head, and says, "Bologna again. If I get a bologna sandwich for lunch tomorrow, I'm jumping with you."
The next day, the Mexican man opens his lunch box, sees tacos, and jumps. A moment later, both of his friends open their lunch boxes and follow him. The company holds a memorial service for the men, and the Mexican man's wife sobs, "If only I'd known he was so sick of tacos--I would have made something else." The Irish man's wife agrees: "I had no idea he didn't like corned beef!" They turn to the blond man's wife and she snaps, "Don't look at me--he made his own damned lunch!"-
lmfao
-
lol... that was good
-
lol I like that one. -
LMAO!
-
-
It really gets my goat when people threaten to leave, fish without rods then tell blonde jokes when I don't know any. So, I found one.

j-walkblog.com/index.php?/weblog/posts/blond_joke/-
Scrub that this one is better adrianwarnock.com/2006/01/best-blond-joke-in-world-ever.htm

lmfao

How long did it take you?
-

Why was the blonde happy when she finished the puzzle in a week?
The box said "3-5 years."
What is the difference of gross ignorance?
144 blondes.
What do you call a blonde with half a brain?
Gifted.
What is the difference between a smart blonde and a UFO?
People have seen UFO's.
Why did the blonde get fired from her job at the M&M factory?
She kept throwing out the W's.
How do you confuse a blonde?
Tell her to alphabetize the M&M's. -
Grrr I must be blonde because I fell for this evil ploy!
I was even slightly concerned
So I thought I would bring back an inane discussion instead -
oh I saw it... you are evil
-
-
I dare somebody to post a discussion: "Do you fish without a rod?". I'm still laughing.
-
dammit, it's not funny!!!!
lmfao
i am SUCH a freaking dork. -
I swear I didn't know it was you just being a dork. It was your "afterthought" that tickled me. Anyway. It was... at the very least..I appreciated the giggle.
-
lololol
i am notorious for spouting off things like that ... and then all my friends looking at me in shock because i *never* say "naughty" things ... and then they usually have to explain to me the double entendre i just made.
i am SUCH a dork
lmfao -
I'm not sure what to laugh at more, the fishing comment or the fact that you keep calling yourself a dork, when it also refers to a pen!$ lol
-
OH
MY
GOD
*stops talking completely now* -
[OH
MY
GOD
*stops talking completely now*]
This is usually the quote after good sex.
-
-
Now I'm doubled over.
-
just peeking in snickering! -
what Is it with you fisting today??-
It is a recurring theme with Kevin. You could probably do a search and find other threads from the summer, unless the BC team got to them first. -
It is just a running joke... I think it is the most disgusting phrase ever... But it entertains me so.
-
I am hard pressed to think of a more disgusting phrase. Even harder pressed to think of one I'd actually use here.
-
-
Well, not all blondes .. but the top 10 worst woman drivers ... does that count?

PS: I've finally consolidated all of my powerpoint slideshows on a new page now ... 1800HART.com/blog/powerpoint-slideshows -
Ah Kevin - if you leave where on earth will we find you? Wandering aimlessly on the streets looking for a hot meal? -
why do people announce that they are leaving anyway. leave.
my favorite blonde joke
knock knock
who's there
knock knock
who's there
knock knock
who's there
would you be quiet said the blonde, i think someone is at the door.
i just made that up. sorry, i don't have one. -
Are blond jokes politically correct ?-
you have no hair how would you know
-
-
Hell no they aren't so post one would ya gerry -
Good one Pointless!
-
LOL -
Q: Why are dumb blonde jokes so short? A: So brunettes can remember them
-
booooooooooooooo!
-
-
Q: Why did the blonde carry a ladder to the bar?
A: Because she heard that the drinks were on the house.-
Makes perfect sense to me.
-
-
Did BC get spammed back in 2007 by trolls too? I really thought Kevin was poking fun at this week's events until I saw the date.
Guess we can survive this. Hope, that's something we can believe in. -
Yeah, there were two particularly noteworthy troll episodes. Ones with all the drama of a reality TV program.
That's why we BC old timers are a little bit jaded, I guess. -
Wow... that's funny. I hadn't noticed the date until you pointed it out. Good timing for revival.
-
Well, it's not really-- because the situations were very different. Those folks who were trolling at the time were clearly people who had issues from day one, and their real intent was to exact some sort of personal narcissistic agenda by being at BC.
They didn't care about the community, or its tone. They wanted to use BC for a personal platform and couldn't understand why everyone wasn't overjoyed at giving them the attention they felt they deserved.
It was an interesting exercise in psychoanalysis, but it certainly wasn't because of concern for making BC a better place. -
Quote TSR:
...their real intent was to exact some sort of personal narcissistic agenda by being at BC....
...couldn't understand why everyone wasn't overjoyed at giving them the attention they felt they deserved...
Wow, for a minute I thhought you were describing me -
Typical.
We'll get the psychoanalysts right on that complex of yours, Mani. -
Okay, I admit, my Facebook personality test did say I was just a little vain and self-obsessed, but that doesn't mean I'm a bad person, does it?
Coz I can change for you, TSR. I can -
Yeah there was a huge difference between the two.
-
Aw, but I wouldn't want the responsibility, Mani, of knowing you'd changed for ME. It's too great a burden to shoulder.
-
Does that mean you like me as I am now? Or are you just afraid about how I turn out if I changed?
-
Yes.
-
You'd be a great politician
-
Nah, I try too hard to be fair and honest-- there's no room for that sort of nonsense in politics.
-
-
where do you guys find these threads???-
I'm guessing someone went back to the archives of 2007. But you can look stuff up through the search engine. It's really cool to see all the stupid stuff that has been said here. And let me tell you, that Manictastic dude is crazy (and a little bit self-obsessed)
-
-
No, no, no... you need to make a completely dramatic statement saying you are never ever coming back - and then post another topic five minutes later to announce you're back again.
-
Wow talk about digging old stuff up.
-
Yeah I wouldn't even be slightly concerned now if you left
-
Yes...further evidence that you are followed by your history, even if you're running away from it.
Now about the blondes.... -
Claire... that crushed me.
-
Did you shed a tear? or just your pants?
-
tears... tears of pain
-
I would of preferred the pants, you are getting soft in your later years.
-
-
How about this?
The blonde asks the doctor what she can do about her boyfriend's dandruff..
He tells her... after deep thought she says " How do you give shoulders?" -
I came up with a joke!!! yeah!!!
Blond #1 - Ho's your new job coming along?
Blond #2 - Good. Some one told me that with my looks, I should sleep my way to the top.So I am!
Blond #1 - Is it helping?
blond #2 - I don't know. I'm asleep most of the time. -
In 45 minutes to go home...
Time's up!
Shall we have a poll on whether or not there will be overtime penalties for those who linger after they say they are going?-
Heya, TT-- the thread is actually ancient. I think PB has probably commuted to and from work a bazillion times by now.
-
He might even have changed state by now
-
Probably at least 140 times
-
You know...you just might be right, TT...I suppose six months is enough time to tidy up the desk and scoot.
-
@tsr
Necro-posting!
Love it or hate it?
Let's have a poll.
(1) Yes. Necro posting forever - revival makes us strong.
(2) No. Close the threads on all the deads - don't lead us on.
-
-
I haven't heard a good blonde joke in ages...
-
Hear about the blond that was fired from the "M and M" candy factory? She threw away all the "W's"... (blame my child for that one...) -
bump
-
Wow, did you ever leave?-
now that I am working from home I never do... I am trapped
-
-
oh wow, I would have loved to encourage you to leave when this thread was first created...now I just dont care
-
I am like the longest living member next to one other person... All the people I hate leave and I continue to stay.
-
-
-
That.is.awesome...
I figured I would bump some classic threads from when other people have cried and left....
you know... like Rose, globalgirl, and that other idiot. -
You'd think they were auditioning for Gone with the Wind or something....
"Frankly my dear...I don't give a damn..." -
oops! ... bad day for eyesight
-
Wrong thread TT?
-
me? a two year old? never
-
Yes huh. I saw the potty training seat in your bathroom.
-
at least a 4 year old
-
@Anok
Thanks for the correction. Gosh, I thought that all threads are the right threads for crybabies to whine in. Was I wrong? -
Yup, this thread is for the non crybabies to whine in
Heehee. -
Who me whine? No way - never. Sheesh ... I'm glad we cleared that up and I know I'm in the right thread.
-
I know, but *I* like to whine.
See? Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa -
OWW OWW Owwooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
-
LMAo *snort*
-
Guess which animals are my totem animals?
Totem animal #1 clue: OWW OWW OWWwooooooooooooooooooooooo! -
Oh, I dunno - hold on lemme think a sec...
If I Grrrrrred at you, would you know mine? -
Maybe
-
Totem animal #2 clue: If I was a silent by deadly stalker who leaped off a high ledge, sunk my claws into your flesh and bit through your jugular vein ... hhhhhhhhhhssssssssssssssss!
-
Ha! (I think?)
I don't know that out totems would get a long, actually. Maybe in a symbiotic relationship during times of food shortages....
Oh I have a feeling i know what yours is. That howling is a dead give away.
Clue number two from me - BIG. -
Do you have any native blood?
-
There is a rumor that I do - but I can't confirm it.
My husband does, Canadian Native, though. -
We share a common totem animal and it's the bear. In my case it's the grizzly bear. (BTW The First Nations peoples owned the whole of the North American continent.)
-
Wow, you're the only other person I've ever met with a bear for a totem.
Cool
That also explains a lot.... -
Did you guess what my second animal totem is yet?
-
A big cat? Of some sort?
-
I was thinking of a rabid skunk, but I my have been influenced by the "silent but deadly" part.
-
-
Goodbye cruel world--I hate you all! Hear me? I HATE you all!
You won't have Melinda Roberts Tyler to push around anymore! That's all!
So EFF you ALL! I am Leaving! I AM leaving. I am leaving. I'm going now.
Whether you like it or not.
I
AM
LEAVING
Think I don't mean it?
I have had it.
As soon as I finish my soup, I am leaving . . . .really. I promise. I will.
Bye!
And
I
Hope
You
All
Die!!!!
(goodbye!)-
"Don't fear the reaper...du-du du do do-"
-
Some people tend to bring out my mean streak. It's actually quite rare when it happens.
-
Oh, I thought that was funny.
I guess my humor is pretty warped -
Mean streak - I don't believe you. You haven't baited a hook so and it's not midnight yet so .... neer, neer, neer, neer, neer You're actually staying , right?
-
ha ha ha @tt--I'm leaving with HOLLY! As soon as it turns midnight, dammit.
-
-
Such a tease, I thought you and holly were running off together.
-
Soon! VERY soon. And I meen it. Write now. I am leafing because all you peeple are making me loose my head. Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye.
Goodbye! -
Gosh what a vain one you are, I actually meant the pointless one.
I cant wait for you to leave as well!
Now piss off. -
blimey
-
I'm not vane. I'm pissed off.
And I am leafing. Soon.
As soon as I am abel to figare out how to logg out. -
Don't forget to take those two with you.
-
Did Kevin just say blimey?
Hahahah
Mtyler - too much, too much -
Enjoy anok--this Melinda isn't let out of her cage very often.
-
Hey, just as soon as I get you on the street, I'm slapping a balaclava on you and you can just let loose
-
heh heh heh--oh, you should have known me when . . . . I got in so much trouble!
It's so hard to be a role model. Or should I say a roll modle. -
I hope I didn't provoke the blimey? Tis blasphemy coming out of a yanks mouth.
Melinda I am ashamed of you!
-
I only get into the best of trouble.
-
Aw shucks--I didn't mean it! Really!
okay--maybe I did. I'll go do some penance somewhere. I will, like, spray paint, "Holly the Housewife ROCKS--she is a TRUE American," on some buildings in the ghetto to show my sorrow for what I have done here.
And then I will leaf. -
HA!
-
-
Screw you all, at midnight I'm weaving! A basket! For your tears!-
One for me?
-
Great! I'll contribute a crying towel.
And at 1 AM we'll start a non-fan club for you, just for fun, of course. -
I dont like baskets, I want a hat
-
Hopefully its made from pubic hair?
-
Tear baskets for EVERYONE! But you can't LOOK at the baskets BECAUSE it upsets them. Especially if you have a "so-called" degree, because then you're really a 2 year old.
-
Good grief! Don't go near those nether regions without gloves.
-
A tear basket full of crying towels, and hats made of pubic hairs, then?
-
LOL, ewww...Im not wearing a hat made out of pubs either
-
Yes and some raisinets too. We can eat them while we watch the clown, the cupcake, and the attention queen sing a trio rendition of the "we just wanna have fun, song" while they tailgate, link drop and taunt other members.
-
I think you can get those items out of the Lillian Vernon catalog, and have them personalized too.
-
You don't say? Do they stock any stuffed lizards?
I'm thinking we may want to throw darts at a few. -
Strawberry cupcakes are my favorite
-
-
This thread. It is made of win.
-
and awesome -
It is made of win, awesome and god.
-
oh! My! Another one (almost) bites the dust! -
@articulates
I say there's no way the Sleepy Hollow howler is going to leave. -
Ho ho ho
Hee hee hee
Is that an old dump truck tailgating me?
Call the police - Oh wait! They're not here - they're there - they're everywhere. -
So, is that thegoodknife or what?
-
Dang - ignore that! It ended up in the wrong place. I was asking about the BC police, below.
-
-
-
I'm surprises that it wasn't pointed out by the bc police how old this thread is. 11/20/07
-
Thread starter has full bumpage rights. -
it was stated by pointless that it was a bump..... i think its a fair call -
lol @ bc police
nee naw! nee naw! nee naw! nee naw! -
@quelqoth
Necro-posting!
Love it or hate it?
How do your rate it?
Let's have a poll.
(1) Necro posting forever - revival makes us strong.
(2) Close the threads on all the deads - don't lead us on.
nee haw! nee haw! nee haw!
Is that an old nanny goat tailgating me? -
Nah, it's the "bc police":
-
-
Then you both need to tell the bc police that crap, not me.
-
hey we believe in freedom of bump
so don't get all up in my face
peace jeu *holds peace sign* -
Ho ho ho
Hee hee hee
Is that an old nanny goat tailgating me?
-
-
-
Now, now. Let us all calm down and read a good book.
I recommend this one:
-
hey when you're all up in my face i have the right to get all up in your face, other wise the terrorists have already won
-
Stop! Don't let that old nanny goat lick your face.
Think about where that twisted tongue has been last.
I hear tell that all it's ever used for kissing fat a$$
It's so obsessed with sucking my farts it makes me laugh. -
Mooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
-
Ladies, please.
-
nee haw! nee haw! nee haw!
The wisdom of the goat doesn't float anyone's boat. -
TT why are you calling Jeunelle names? AND Sucking your farts? That was very ucalled for.
-
-
But .. will the rain hurt the rhubarb?
(that's what I want to know)-
Gosh, I hope not.
-
-
hang on i've lost who's what now
i thought the bump was fair as it was clearly stated-
The bump was fairly stated.
The goat was berated.
I'm not obligated.
Ho ho ho
Hee hee hee
I seems the old nanny goat can't quit tailgating me.
-
-
What's also funny is that someone here believes that they ARE the bc police and that I am speaking about them, though no names were brought into this when I simply pointed out in the comment above that this thread is old. Amazing...I guess that Mad Cow disease is still on the loose and all I have to say is Mooooooooooooooooooooo.
-
moooooooooooooooowahahahahahahahaha
-
Jenuelle give it a rest....
Christ you are such a drama whore -
That message was brought to you by another Mad Cow supporter.
Moooooooooooooooooooooooo -
So, is that policeman thegoodknife or nine? Hell no! They have real work to do and it's not policing this zoo. Maybe police at BC are the self anointed three - the clown, the cupcake and the drama queenie. I mean, I'm sure they have an in with Admin (tee ... hee) 'cuz the BC front page doesn't change. And, all we see is threads with their names.
-
Ahhhhh so while the cats away the mice will play.
Of course we all have to have the last word but really I don't know why they don't change the friggin front page, those discussions have been up for far too long and I too wonder why those discussions are still on the front page.
Looks like the Admins haven't been around to change them and that would explain soooo much here. -
I agree J, they probably just have not had time to change it. OR...... maybe they feel that light hearted and fun conversations are attractive for BC. Sweet attracts new members more than sour will.
-
pointlessbanter.....If you choose to show your true character by using the F word on a public forum that is your choice. I do not respond to people who use F words on a public forum,
at least I have some class and please don't speak to me when you decide to use them. -
Good way to sidestep the issue at hand.
You don't know crap about my true character.
Your constant complaining and fight picking is getting old. -
@kevin
It never takes much to make an old goat cranky.
It's beneath me to engage with 3 self anointed vigilantes.
Let them blah their guts out while they tie knots in their panties.
Eh, Kevin pass me the hankies. -
@kevin....Picking a fight????? Really is that so???? because as I remember it,
all I stated here is that this discussion is old and that still holds true.
It's not like an old discussion wasn't pointed out many times by other bc members, so are they all picking fights too when they simply point out the facts? -
Self appointed vigilantes? Holy Shit! If that isn't the greatest case of the "Pot Calling the Kettle Black" - Still laughing at that comment...
-
I am pointing out this point of ponitless's :
"We are all sick of hearing from both of you about it" -
Jeunelle - calm down...
We know your side...
We know TT's side...
The constant back-and-forth is just getting nothing done...
You both need a time out! -
@TT: If anyone plays the self anointed BC police person here, it is YOU. You constantly chastise people, tell them what to do and all in the guise of being helpful. Practically every one (not all, but most) of your "helpful links" point to something you wrote on one of your blogs. Your snide comments do not go unnoticed.
The clown and the cupcake have just been socializing here. You for some reason decided that you do not like that and started poking fun. So be it, but I think many here see what you are really doing. I am always friendly to everyone. Mind my business. Keep things light and fun. But.... I will not stand by and let you get your digs in without saying something about it. I advise you to back off. -
We all crpitt???? Who is we all???? Who speaks for all bc members here???
Should we have an official bc vote??? -
Okay I am sick of BOTH of you, there is one vote.
-
@crpitt....The truth is out...lmao
I am out of here to go make breakfast. Later yau'll -
More the situation, than the actual people. Is every thread going contain digs about the other?
-
-
He who has a thousand friends has not a friend to spare, And he who has one enemy will meet him everywhere.
There are only two people who can tell you the truth about yourself; an enemy who has lost his temper and a friend who loves you dearly-
Thanks for the reminder Dune - much appreciated.

-
HA!, this thread is hilarious Damn my need to goto sleep
-
So is it over?
-
The thread is from 11/07 and still...
It's interesting how social media personality implosions tend to look so similar.-
I tried to warn Kevin about the necroposting:
-
ROFLMAO!!!!!
-
-
www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6zIEfSxqkg
Networking, sharing knowledge, making friends and a little bit 'o fun= Social networking -
unfortunately i dont have sound atm, sooo i'll lol anyway for the sake that i trust that it will be funny
LOL -
You are always such a good sport
-
^^
-
-
I think someone was nipping at the sacrificial wine last night...
And never - - never - - use the Raisinets name in vain..
@Arnous81 - Hilarious - sucking farts...
@TT - See - You can actually be part of a thread and Have Fun without "link dropping" - a little bit mean-spirited - but still funny...-
-0-
-
BG is that suppose to be Haiku??? LMAO
-
Finding this all to be getting a bit personal TT. We have kept it light regardless of the silly names you make up for us but I ask that you do NOT say things like what you just said to Benny. Not a good idea.
Edited: Of course, TT changed what she wrote about Benny just a minute ago so now my statement does not make sense. But, I will leave mine as is because I want HER to read it. -
oh god, I wish there was some kind of map for this discussion cause I cant figure out what anyone said that started this whole thing, and what did she say to benny?
-
A map would be nice -
And I did see what you said - and Darlin' - What I say and do is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much different than what you say and do - that a Mirror would not be the tool needed...
To quote you - "I am here to stay" - so get used to it...
just sayin'...
@sensico - if you want to know - drop me a note... -
nevermind I finally figured it out...your a vigilante. Shame on you benny, and you're a bad influence in kelly. SHAME SHAME SHAME
-
It was not exactly that - but -- water under the troll bridge
-
Sesico, maybe I am the bad influence on Benny!
-
actually that would make more sense, I always thought of Benny as a *little* more nicer
-
Ahhh - so it is Kells who has been the bad influence... whew I feel better now... can I have a cupcake, err, ummm, cupcake...
-
-
hey, why did the arguing stop...it was getting good...
-
no more wine in the hip flask?
-
Take heart- typically in these situations the person who leaves comes back in a short period of time either:
1.) proclaiming they won't be run off by certain mean people or
2.) under a new name but communicating in the same way on the same topics, so everybody already knows who it is.
Such is the internet for ya! -
I laughed my ass off on #1 Jenn - that was great!
-
It's just the way it is. I hope someone's writing a psychology book on this angle of social media. It's fascinating.
-
@Jenn - #2 - isn't it always the case - I have enough trouble being me - I can't Imagine having to have two or three of me - dang!
Too funny -
#2 Yes, I've seen it happen at least three times in the last couple of years.
And no, just being oneself is a full-time job. I have enough trouble having two different blogs! -
@jenn - Not only that - but - I like being me - so if I can't be me - I don't want to be a "fake" me - You either like me for me or not - I am OK with getting one Less Birthday gift...
-
Yeah, but that comes with self-esteem.
-
It comes with self-esteem - good point Jenn...
Then again - those "sybilistic" personalities and persona make for great Social Media fodder! -
Darn Benny, I had to go and look that one up! I see now
-
@TSR--I am actually seriously considering writing a book about the psychological properties of social networking. All of you are my lab rats too!
And also, #1 and #2 can be applied to virtually ANY discussion forum. Political entertaininment, blogging, etc. People leave in a huff and write a long post announcing it, then come back and say they won't be intimidated by the baddies on the board. -
There was arguing?
I always miss the good stuff
Mtyler - I would LOVE to read that book. Egads, what a messy world it is! -
I've been running around this maze for months. Where the hell is my cheese, woman?!
-
@Anok--it's my next project after my memoir. But you can have a free autographed copy!
-
It's certainly ripe for writing about. And you're right, it certainly isn't limited to BC-- it's any social media. It's all pretty cyclical.
-
Saweet!
Do I get a starring role, or what? -
Anok, I cannot imagine that the only Ninja here would not get a starring role! What is a social media book without a Ninja???
-
I know! I mean..honestly.
Pfft boards without ninjas are really not the sorts of places one should be hanging around. -
I've been wandering around boards and fora for over ten years, and I've seen the same scenario enacted on every one of them. Someone always claims that there are admin favorites, a mean clique, and that they're being harassed behind the scenes. You can always find a dramatic exit, filled with the explanation of what's wrong with the board and how the poster is tired of trying to fix it.
I postulate that there's actually only one troll out there, who posts the same complaints, stirs the same pot, and generally wreaks the same havoc on every board out there. It just takes him or her longer to find some than others. -
Seriously! I kind of like boards with clowns and cupcakes too!
-
Hey as the "clown" of the group - can I get one... I have Pay Pal you know
Or I can pay in Raisinettes -
@Legbamel - yup! Every board, every age group.
My old debate group that I used to be addicted to was the same way only even worse. They had community leaders who acted as moderators (in a Jr sort of way to the site's real moderators) - and man oh man were they ever harassed for favoritism!
Which is why I do not support forum moderators of tat sort. It just makes it worse.
Kelly & Bennie LOL -
#2 was the first thing I thought about last night... There will be a new appearance and they'll feel the need to do a bit of "payback" or at least try. During those times do we then figure it out and it's "toodles" and "B-bye" to them again!
-
Was just thinking - Clowns and Cupcakes - what a great way to "Start a Party"... or the Clown and Cupcakes Fan Club...
laughs... -
Aw, Benny-- please stop talking food. I skipped breakfast this morning and you're killin' me.
-
No Benny, you mean the clown and cupcake "non-fan club", don't you??
-
Ahhh - Yes - I stand corrected - the "non fan club"
correct... well at least they do make for a great Tailgate Party! -
all I did was post a simple question and now, I have no idea where theres so many replies, I dont even know what this conversation is about, but if it aint arguing for my entertainment purposes then you people are irrelevant
-
-
@Anok--of course! You are the star anarchist of the board!
-
Heeheheeeheeheee
I can see it now - the chapter dedicated to the paranoid and conspiracy theorists on the boards...staring ninja anarchists! -
@Anok--that's a great angle!
-
Oooooh Oooooh Ohhhhh (doing my best Horshack) - Can the Clown get the Chapter on how Social Media is not supposed to be fun?
--and I could even do the narrative in my deep voiced Brooklyn accent - confuse everyone! -
No problem, Bennie! Your cast--and I can write a mean Brooklyn accent!
-
-
my favorite joke is that i am posting my comments on this topic -
***Note - This entire thread brought to you by the fine folks over at Pointless Banter
-
Only the fun parts.
-
Be careful - the fun parts are what got the trouble started...
There is already a Clown and a Cupcake - Do you want to be called something too...
-
-
@pointless:
I think this is all a ploy, it shows your masterful way of getting people to join into a discussion thread, without you getting too deeply involved in the conversation going on... ! Wow! Amazing! I must learn this!
@tt I am wondering what kind of name you have for me? Or on second thought maybe it's better that I don't know... -
I just call you Kim - and I like that!
-
just like i call you benji
-
-
I reckon you all must be ginger. Only gingers hate blondes this much.-
Huh?
-
you know, red hair
