eating here is hit and miss. when im feeling adventurous, ill go to some random restaurant and point to some random thing on the menu, and hope for the best. usually works out ok

i had some fish a couple of weekends ago. the dipping sauce was the most godawful foul thing i had ever tasted, but what made it worse was the damn fish wasnt de-boned, so i couldnt chew it up and swallow and be done with it easily. then to top it off, they gave me some very bad barley water fricking yuck!

but most of the time, the food is good

id rather hang out with a kind and generous hooker than than an unkind tightwad of whatever occupation that you might consider "classy" - crashbang

That's great. Not relevant, also not classy, but great.

so since you sit in judgement of us, at exactly what point are you going to start exuding this "classiness", and be an example to all of us?

American Heritage Dictionary - class·y (klās'ē) Pronunciation Key
adj. class·i·er, class·i·est Informal


Highly stylish; elegant.

That's Just Dandy !!
Your friend gets his teeth into an issue and just won't let go, BrashBang.

Hmmmm, that reminds me of a certain "dead" guy.

I suppose that definition of "classy" is one in which the "clothes make the man" rather than the goodness in his heart or character or soul.

You, Crashy, are certainly no clotheshorse.

Since you're the self-appointed board moderator, and it's all about you and you must pre-approve every comment Made on here, how can I win your approval, your most excellency?
Get over yourself.

I never claimed to be classy, nor an example, just saying this group as a whole isn't classy. Sorry to get your panties in a bunch.

I heard an expression on a Scrubs re-run last week that cracked me up And reminded me of this place. If you watch the show, you're familiar with the resident a-hole “Dr. Perry Cox” (John C. McGinley).

The folks were discussing 'people in general' and he came back with "People are bastard-covered bastards with bastard filling."

Not saying you cant slip up once in a while, but you gotta admit the behavior on here is classless at an unusually high rate.

Oh for sure! I don't even try to shoot for classy but I do try to be respectful. Again, I do fail sometimes when I'm in a bad mood or I have to deal with moral relativism which drives me nuts.

I'd say I read about 50% of TTer's posts and only about half of them will get a reply. Surprisingly of the half I don't respond to is because I either like them a lot or because they aren't even worth the time.

Time is precious.

No, TT'ers do not represent society. Like, does Kleetn represent all squirrel lovers?(I got news for you, deep down inside, he hates them.)Does Chili know everything about Chili? (Oh hell no. He won't let me put beans in my own chili and I live 800 miles away from him.) Is Dayhiker related to Forrest Gump. (OK, well I guess this is a bad example.) Is Lyra the healthiest chicky-poo because she eats organic food? (That food ain't doin' her mental health any good at all, I've noticed.)
Does Pedxing know anything at all about psychology? (Physician, heal thyself!)Does Buddha Bear play for Ohio State? (I've seen his helmet....no buckeyes on it whatsoever.)
So, you see, my logic for why TT'ers do NOT represent society is air-tight.

Thrifty, talk about an Instant Classic.... Those writers come up with some crazy crap, but that was something else. Sometimes I wonder how much of that show is ad libbed.... ?



Right now I'm thinking of a tune.

Meet the New B
Same as the Old B

Is Corey B really a Scoopy2 troll?  dang that would suck!


I know I've asked this before, but if a screen personna was an actual expression of Multiple Personality Disorder, would it be a troll or not, technically?  Would a note from the pshrink be required?

Can I get a ruling, here?  Anybody seen the Official Scorekeeper lately?
