DC Tom Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 so, in the words of any 7-year-old kid, "he started it"... 148969[/snapback] Can you dumb it down a little further? That's a little mature for BF's standards... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC Tom Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 In brief: Ron Artest is perfectly entitled to beat the crap out of someone who throws a beer at him, but he shouldn't lift a finger if you steal his rap CD, because since it's illegal but unenforcable, it's legal. 148971[/snapback] AND there was a lot of "Well, if my sister's friend's dog's breeder lends me a tape of a movie off of HBO, is that legal or not?" nonsense...

Alaska Darin Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 I know you are but what am I? 148981[/snapback] I would have gone with the "rubber...glue" thing but that works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerball Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 Then, Tracy said "I dont think it's illegal, but I do think its illegal" or something similar, sending us all in a tailspin. She mentioned matress tags. 148949[/snapback] Mattress tags! Now that explains it. I had to hurtle over my couch to keep the dog from ripping the tag off the bottom of the ottoman. Speaking of ottomans, isn't a footstool a funny thing to name an empire after? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC Tom Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 Yeah, and how come the Huns, Mongols, Vikings, etc don't have their own furniture? 148989[/snapback] Technically, I don't think the Huns had an empire per se...nor the Vikings. They were more along the lines of "marauding bands" type of people, rather than "settle down and oppress the peasants" types. Ergo...no furniture. And the Mongols...they just didn't use furniture. Just rugs. And besides...who wants to sit on a gher or a yurt anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mediaman Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 Tracy asked how to help her son DL movies from Kazaa. Some of us helped her, some explained how Illegal it is, some questioned her parenting, and others fought. Enter BF_In_Indiana. Explaining his contribution to the thread is like explaining what the middle of a chicken mcnugget is acutally made of. He actually mentioned Artest. I believe its around pages 8-10, but it is definitely worth reading. Then, Tracy said "I dont think it's illegal, but I do think its illegal" or something similar, sending us all in a tailspin. She mentioned matress tags. We explained the difference, and that it is illegal to DL copywrited things, and she finally admitted it, but still said she wouldn't stop. And now we're here.... 148949[/snapback] I love this board Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRH Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 I only just now noticed this thread has 44 pages. Madre de Dios y sangre de Cristo y tu Mama también. Thanks for the summary, Steve. But 44 pages??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is better than anything I have read in a long time. Antagonists, protagonists, bit players, village idiots, intrigue, suspense, the hint of murder. Wow, this is great drama. Maybe SDS can make this available as a hard-bound edition when it finally gets to it's catastophic ending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually had someone ask for that... I charged him a $5 "stupid tax". Ditto the people who called to complain "my tuna sub tastes like fish"...
