KD in CA Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 I just saw the funniest thing ever on a message board....they are having a single elimination insult contest. One thread for each 'match up' in which the two opponents zing each other until a winner is declared. I can't believe that such a brilliant idea was not hatched here. Think about the possibilities....what would the point spread be on a first round match up b/w Darin and BF?

KD in CA Posted February 21, 2005 Author Posted February 21, 2005 Link? 247297[/snapback] I figured just mentioning it was bad enough....a link would get the thread killed for sure. p.s. thanks for the line Stoj.....I'm giving the points.

IDBillzFan Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 Here's a great insult... did you mean to type those words in that order, or is that just the random pattern that occurred when you bent your inflatable date over the keyboard?
stevestojan Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 Oh man... "OpIv37" is beating the hell out of "Devin"

Ramius Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 i'd be all for this...it would be great...i'd prolly even enter myself
Ramius Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 damn i nearly pissed myself here reading some of the insults...thats great stuff

We would get personal. I would love to do it here, but there would be 3 problems: 1) Bunch of thin skinned people over here 2) There's no way a "peanut gallery" thread would work, and all of the faceoff threads would be ruined by others jumping in. 3) It would overflow into other posts. We would use the insults again weeks, months afterwards. That being said, I'm all for it.
Gavin in Va Beach Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 That being said, I'm all for it. 247418[/snapback] You get a physical every other week because the "cough test" and the prostate exam are as close as you can get to actually having sex.

Gavin in Va Beach Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 come on, no copying and pasting... 247424[/snapback] For the first face-off, I nominate BF vs. DC Tom.

There's no real way to be spontaneous about this on the Internet IMO.In a couple hours, you could research enough insults that would bury any of these guys competing on the Zone. Live at a tailgate, that's another story!
IDBillzFan Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 The upside to doing something like that here is it tends to gravitate that kind of crap to one area. It's like a glass of beer in the garden: you never get rid of all the slugs, but at least you give them one place to congregate so they don't screw up the rest of the garden.
