Who here would you like to sit down and have drink with?

I think it must be all in the cat or the pinhead. I presume you're thinking the admin mode. I think I have tended to prefer the "smack 'em with a 2x4" method.I have vague recollections of occasionally inserting what I deem to be subtle humor into my (non-admin and/or admin mode) messages. I always wonder if anyone notices - I don't recall ever seeing any comments about such.I certainly would be interested in seeing a quote and/or link of/to what you find to be funny.Or something like that.MooseEdited by Minnemooseus, : Turn on sig.

Hi Moose, This for starters, your admonishment of the little troll ThreeDogs; I liked that one. I like your "Or something like that." catchphrase as well. Everyone should have a catchphrase...Mutate and Survive

Well a lot of your posts make me laugh, but since I'm not sure that's the intent (I'm a little dense that way), I keep my giggling to myself because I'd rather avoid a very public smack down... or suspension for inappropriate/off topic behavior. lol Hmmmm... okay... but you asked for it. Be back later.

I think I'd rather be a musician too, but we don't get to pick the art, the art usually picks us - at least that's been my experience.It was always my dream to be a comic, but honestly, I've never done something so emotionally draining in my life. Failure in this business is heart breaking. It's such a shitty feeling to have people judge your creative work who've never so much as written a joke, let alone perform, in their lives. I don't like contests, I don't like being judged, but there is no way around it to advance to the mainstream level unless I go that route. The underground circuits are gone. I would like for it to be less about the business and more about the art. But money changes everything. - Sorry, I'm American. What's your brew of choice? I don't know, my resistance is OK for an American I guess. I do better with straight liquor, vodka is my drink of choice. I can take a bottle down in 4 or 5 hours and still be well (if I ate before drinking). I can't do that with beer though, however I do try to keep up if I'm drinking with guys from your side of the pond. It's like I feel I'm representing my country in a alcoholics contest of some sort. LOL- Oni

One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we've been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We're no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It is simply too painful to acknowledge -- even to ourselves -- that we've been so credulous. - Carl Sagan, The Fine Art of Baloney Detection"You can't convince a believer of anything; for their belief is not based on evidence, it's based on a deep seated need to believe." - Carl Sagan"It is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring." - Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World

Apparently no-one likes me.Well, when I unleash my vast army of killer robots you'll all be sorry. Though probably not for very long.

You see, I knew this was your agenda the whole time I've been on this site! I tried to warn others but I was dismissed as a conspiracy theorist.Lets get drunk and watch those robots fight each other, and take bets on who wins. Are we talking iRobot robots? Or that pussy looking Honda robot that can go up stairs?- oni

BTW, I'm partial to the pinhead, myself.------A couple of recent Moose LOL moments for me: You're feeling pretty good about yourself when Moose starts out and then ka-BLAMMO! You're still an effen' idiot. loland then... ... you don't even get a little breath of fresh air before you're socked in the stomach.There are too many stinkin' smart people on this forum so I stick to the stuff I know and that's IT. I learned that early on.

I'd like to have gone to Oktoberfest 2009 with Lithodid-man. I see him on BlogTV occasionally and watch all of his youTube vids.Among so many others here, Dr Adequate always amazes me with his posts; definitely someone very interesting. I especially appreciate the masterful way he can deduce an argument to its core components or more often than not, core fallacies. Rubbing shoulders with you lot is a brush with greatness indeed.

Well in the art selection process I might well be the equivalent of the fat cack handed clumsy kid nobody wants on their sports team at school. Some enthusiastic but talentless stints at drumming and a latent desire to be a writer of some sort are about the extent to which any artform has ever wanted me on it's team. Oh I'll drink most things but the deeply chemicalised artificially fizzed mass produced lagers of the world would be fairly low down the list. Not that this ever stops me. Pretensions of beer snobbery are all very well but if they get in the way of a good time I take a more pragmatic approach. Hard liquor man huh. Tequila is my personal loopy juice. Just cannot handle the stuff at all. My achilles heel (if I am to outrageously and arrogantly equate myself with Achilles even in this rather silly context) It is a sad reflection on the male psyche that we feel the need to compete in such ludicrous and self defeating acts of machismo.Having said that of course should we ever meet up and hit the beers for a night the last man standing wins national honours and the right to eternally mock the other (and his nation) as a girly frilly dress wearing loser Just don't start on the tequila.............. Edited by Straggler, : No reason given.

Damn that sounds like a great time.

Well consider yourself invited to London. Just don't forget to pack your pink frilly dress......

Rrhain, so I could punch his lights out....just kidding.I would sit down with anyone here, even TaZ, or crashfrog, well maybe not jar. haha.I bet that meeting some of you in person would be way different than meeting in here.

Hi, Dr A. Yeah, that's pretty bad, man: even I got a mention early on (it was in the middle of a long list, but... I take whatever I can get --- thanks, CS).But, that's okay: I don't particularly want to meet any of y'all, either...
