@Adrock  stop hijacking the other thread.  If you dislike boring topics thats cool.  Don't screw up a good thread though.  Start your own thread.

Feel free to use this one to voice your complaint though.

    Also don't take this as a personal attack.  We value everyones opinion.  That is what makes this place great.

    I felt the need to give you a place to vent because I am the originator of one boring topic that offended you.

    @theyolksonyou - lol, I had to check which thread I was on!

    You can definitely tell this is a Friday night. No way this would happen on a school night.

    Just didn't want that good thread devolving.  I felt responsible since I started one of the threads that adds no value except bs'ing and building friendships.

    Speaking of Mr. Apple ... what does his screen name mean?  Where did he get it?  Just wondering ... my grandfather told me a road apple is horse manure ... so does henapple refer to something similar?

    Guess you're right that it's a southern thing ... been wondering about it for the last six months ... never would have made the connection.  Cheers ...

    This is pretty tame for an argument thread.  The last joke thread had more edge, but I'm not complaining.

    I agree.  You had a valid opinion.  The thread was devolving and went way OT.  I wanted all involved to bring it here instead of ruining that thread.  

    @cazzy I'm still not talking to you .... wait ... damn.... I just did. *grumble grumble grumble*

    C'mon, @Adrock.  I tried to get your back, but . . . 

     . . . at some point, you're gonna hafta own your own actions.


    You, unsolicited, followed your "thanks" with a somewhat demeaning label for topics that obviously many others are interested in. 

    You can see the "4.7k views", right?

    You can't insult the tastes of so many people while simultaneously claiming incredulity when you're "called out".  You see that, don't you?


    Admittedly, I don't frequent those threads either. 

    I just scroll past them.  Silently.

     :)

    I read a post about members exiting the forum in a blaze of glory.  This is my shot .....
