Excellent choice; GG is more than qualified, I think he’ll do a splendid job. Congrats, mate! :D

RE: Newbie Experiences!
The first time I played was with my brother, and I couldn’t count how many rules we messed up (this was 2nd Edition; I knew how to play by the time I got Revised ;) ). Among them, though, was allowing armor units to shoot at sea units (especially used during amphibious invasions), allowing allies to build ICs in each other’s territory, and placing as many units as we wanted on newly captured and built ICs on the same turn they were captured or built! :P

RE: Narnia… really bad movie as well.
Like GG said; the Narnia books were vaguely concealed Christian parables (for lack of a better word). The Tolkien books were much more oriented towards just a fantasy series, and creating another world. On the other hand, the Space Trilogy are all excellent reads (confession; I never finished the third :oops: ), and much more oriented towards the typical sci-fi/fantasy reader.

RE: Narnia… really bad movie as well.
I never saw the BBC versions, knowing they’d suck, but I’ve read the books countless times, and liked them. Though the movie wasn’t a perfect representation of the book, it was pretty darn close; I liked it.

RE: Smart people voted for Bush
yanny made it pretty clear that he just found it funny
Correct, he did. And I thought my blatant sarcasm was evidence enough that I took it as a joke; had I considered it an actual argument, I would have replied reasonably, not in the way I did.
But then, is anything like that ever entirely a joke? I think you’d have a hard time convincing me that most Democrats don’t consider most Republicans idiots, and use jokes like that to express their feelings of superiority. I don’t think Yanny is like that, but the point can still be made that were a Republican to post that, it would instantly be seen as a joke; if a Democrat does it, it’s unlikely it was entirely in jest.

RE: Smart people voted for Bush
My God, it’s true! Only dumb poor people vote for Republicans! This changes everything I ever thought! Henceforth, I’m voting Democratic, lest I become one of those dumb and poor Republicans!

RE: Who is gonna win the Super bowl???
Well, leaning towards going for the Steelers, just 'cause they haven’t won in quite a while (yes, I know, Seattle has never won, but they’re much younger than the Steelers), but I won’t be surprised to see the Seahawks pull it off.
I’m just glad it’s not them damn Patriots again :P.

Well, I’d call the odds good; after all, Rafferty’s the man ;) :D.

RE: Vermont Child Rapist put in jail for 60 days.
Death sentence would be fine with me. Vlad the Impaler, anyone?
As for the judge, get him off that bench; if he’s so infatuated with “rehabilitation,” let him work at an AA clinic.

RE: Resigning as Mod
Been good having you, CC. I know we’ve often (correction; usually) fought, but I’ve always thought you to be fair-minded when it came to the Mod job. Glad you ain’t leaving totally :).

RE: While some are fightin' and dyin'…
Merry Christmas man, hope the new arrival doesn’t keep you awake too late :D.

RE: Best jokes
Falk: I don’t believe I have ever flamed you. So accusing people with whom I share a country of being hypocrites, and therefore disregarding my requests to stick to the subject is, frankly, stupid.
CC: Are you incapable of seeing how silly and childish you sound? Am I talking to a wall here? Oh, forget it. Mods, do me a favor and delete every non-joke post here, including my own, please.

RE: Best jokes
If you find a post offensive, message the offending person and tell him so, or even go so far as to report it to a mod. But no one here cares how it makes you “feel,” and we don’t you need you posting on the thread to let everyone know how offended you are.

Good news…

And we know who to blame this on, right? Our evil, poor-hating, rich-loving, President, and his nasty tax cuts ;).

RE: Best jokes
Falk, Jen, CC; shove it. Can you people ever stop fighting like a bunch of three year olds? You manage to turn any thread you wish into a personal vendetta against each other, and speaking on behalf of most of the forums (unless they wish to correct me), it’s pathetic.
-
RE: Best jokes
CC, wasn’t that the sort of thing you should have PM’d him, instead of making an off-topic post about?
A nun, a priest, and a rabbi walk into a bar. The bartender sees them and says “What is this, a joke?”

RE: Christmas Carols for the disturbed
Heh, fair enough :P. But still, for a stupid joke, close enough… ;)

RE: Christmas Carols for the disturbed
Knowing people like that (and being good friends with a couple) makes it hilarious, to me… but I’m agreeing with Janus on this one (though, not being part of a minority in any way, it’d be hard to insult me with a joke, unless it was personal :P).
