“lee, that was old news when my grandmother was just a baby hampster”

“This is on 2 other threads already.”

“oh well. Color me slow. And busy at work.

maybe I'll just start a new thread for every new idea that pops into my head.


Or just everytime I want attention.”

“lee screws up completely independently of anything anybody else did, then tries to spin it as if other people are at fault.

typical”

“Well, now I understand the other thread - I didn't get that email.

It is a little eerie to think how little Trail Talk would change if Sports Cars were to become the official topic.

“does a Dodge Neon count as a sports car? How do you tune the radio?”

“Tune it to concert pitch.”

“ENS,
There is no limit to what you can do to a Neon. Drive up to rt 30 by tractor supply and you'll see a bunch of POS's tricked out.”

“yes I got over 200 freaking emalis from them.
i would say big oops”

“They only sent me 6 emails”

“Mapes, you gots lots of trolls, have ya?”

“Does anyone else feel like the new parents just left us at summer camp and are never coming back?”

“Hot dang, it's time to turn over the schit house!!

I have received none of that stuff......y'all are makin' it up.”

“We can all run around naked.”

“I feel the same as you marko. It must be a hoax!”

“if you signed up with an old email and have changed emails since then, thats where your email went.”

“I only got one email from them......I guess they don't like me as much as y'all....”

“Does anyone else feel like the new parents just left us at summer camp and are never coming back?”

Creek Dancer... does that answer the question?”

“I never got one. Maybe I am not really here and this is all a crazy dream. That would definately explain some of you wackos.”

“Hey, I resemble that remark.”

“Yup, that answers my question Rev!”

“whiskey tango foxtrot? dang, i believe i will be using ignore for a certain mean old @%$*#!& here. something crawled up his #&! years ago and stayed there apparently. you guys are right.”

“whiskey tango foxtrot are you talking about?”

“Hmm, it says "Effective December 10th"...I mean, that's only a week now they've thought we're a sports car site. Does it bode well that not even the owners know what this site is about? LOL! The name of it IS pretty opaque...”

“check your spam box.

I told my PC they were spam so they would stop coming.
thanks for listening to me....i lost count.

STOP FREAKING EMAIL ME ALREADY!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

“ML, are you registering all of the unused names so you can start charging for them when newbies come around?”

“I thought this was a political and philosophical forum. And all this time I should have been posting about cars. Don't feel bad maple, I've only ever registered one name and I got 2 emails. WTF is right...”

“If sarge is going to run around naked, I'm not gonna!”

“prayers ....... answered. check”

“LMAO!”

“this is there reply to my 200 emails...



every user received one email - we are required to email users when our terms of use change.
you have a lot of usernames, so you got a lot of emails


my reply.....


are you saying that I have over 200 users names? if so please forward ALL of the 200 users names

sorry but your wrong on this one. someone forgot to let go of the send button. it is ok to say the company messed up


I really want Matt back.”

“basically, maples multiple personalities have multiple personalities, and her trolls have their own trolls”

“man how hard is it to say "oops we messed up"

man i hate big biz.”

“Does anyone remember the famous quote by Paul Bates in 'Crazy People"

Robles: Porsche. It's a little too small to get laid IN it, but you get laid the minute you get out of it! ”

“Hey, that's a sports car comment!”

“so they say that I have 200 trolls.
ok let the bidding begin for passwords”

“That email is incorrect.

I only have one login here and I got 6 emails as well.

Saddam and LongDuckDong were done on other email accounts.

I tried to change my email address a while ago and it didn't "stick".

It's obvious that this place is a hit generator for the whole company. They don't have to sink any money it. As long as the trolls like sarge keep generating hits for this place, why would they bother?”

“LOL! Nice picture laqtis! LMAO!”

“I only got about 14 emails - that's about right....



moohahahahaha!”

“Six for me and the date was Jan 14. Is that Dec 15 in Canuck, eh?”
