I, like any other person enjoys posting in the BBS. There are sometimes some really good topics but lately....or maybe it's just me.... I haven't seen anything worth writing in lately.

What about my Freakonomics thread. It's intelligent... sort of...

Personally, I can't wait until school starts. I believe that people actually get considerably stupider over summer break.

I can't wait to get back to my precious classes.

I can see that. I even tried myself to post some nice and interesting threads but I guess I didn't seem stupid enough to have people even talk in it. The only thing I got going is the Photography Club in Clubs and Crews. Thank goodness for that too cause to me that the only place (besides here) worth posting that people are decent and there is always interesting work shown. :D

I think I may do some reserch and think of something worth talking about, I donno.. I need to finish packing for college first. He heh...

Is it just me or has the BBS hit an IQ of -10.

Hello, and welcome to the NG BBS. My name is Shrikey and I'll be your moderator for the duration of this trip. Please note the total lack of any emergency exits, anywhere. In the event of an emergency, pwnage masks will drop from the ceiling and dispense high levels of denial. If you have any questions, or are in need of assistance, ask someone else, 'cause I'm never around anymore. Thank you.

Including before you or I came along. This BBS is like watching a dog vomit, then eat it, then vomit again... ad nauseum.

Entertaining and sickening all at once.

I can see that. I even tried myself to post some nice and interesting threads but I guess I didn't seem stupid enough to have people even talk in it.

Happens all the time. Like high school, this place is full of cliques and neverending popularity battles. Most of the time you'll be ignored unless it's a really good topic. Or, perhaps if it is a crap topic involving some obscure in-joke hardly anyone understands. Those seems to attract me-too posts like unattended food attracts insects.

I think I may do some reserch and think of something worth talking about, I donno.. I need to finish packing for college first. He heh...

Damn that real life bullshit for cutting you out of precious ng time. >=[

Captions? Anyone?
I made this for some photoshop contest that never materialized, months ago. Just found it, and thought it needs a caption.

Yep, usually any intelligent topic gets killed, because it takes to much thought and energy to come up with a reply.

Captions? Anyone?

Like Shrike said, intelligence on this BBS as a whole is dead, the morons have the ball, and they are not letting go, so just find some topics you're interested in, and hope the storm ends. Or you could always try resuscitating my forums, we could use fresh ideas over there too : )

He isn't... it came to his ears in a roundabout way that she needed dentures, and our mom pretty much guilt tripped him into paying for it.

My sister and I have a pretty decent relationship, but she's resentful of my dad because she believes he caused our mother to break up with her dad. Which is bullshit, because our mom brokeup/divorced her dad a year and a half before she ever met my dad.

There hasn't been anything interesting to post about in a LONG time, believe me. This place lost a lot of steam after the last major American Presidential election. Ever since then it's been kind of a rehash of old topics.

Rehashing of old topics, why I would not think so. With all the people talking about how bush is a bad president, or about religion, I mean really, who brings up a topic that has either been debated to the point where there is nothing left, or that has no real significance at all, and is just stupid...

So I got back from this vacation today, right. Guess where I have been, in my own city, Eilat! >:(Those bastards fooled me into thinking I would spend my vacation in a place which I don't know like the back of my hand. But we were in a great hotel, we barely came out of it, so it was pretty fine, it is my first vacation in Eilat and it is not that bad... :)

Everytime I see that pic, it takes a second to recognize that it's not my pic...
(Our profiles both have hates, and same pose. Some people suggested that we sorta look a like-- but personally, I don't see any resemblence)

Eh...
That was a terrible flash in every sense.

Welcome to Acme Extremely Low Budget Airline! In the event of a water landing, we hope you know how to swim. Should we lose cabin pressure, a placard will descend advising you to hold your breath. Our in-flight movie will be a bootleg copy of Waterworld from 1995. Our inflight meal choices are canard a la suckedintothejetengines and other assorted meat. Should you require assistance, ask a stewardess, and we will assist you in a surly and rude manner.
Thank you for flying Acme! You won't live to regret it!

He was banned once before because he was starting shit in the lounge and wasn't a regular. Then banned again because after his ban he was starting shit claiming "it's not in the rules, so I can post here". Really, quite amusing. :)

I don't hate you for no reason... I have a good reason. It's tradition. You're not a politics reg, you don't belong here. It's an unwritten rule. It's like someone going into a C&C thread that's praising slipknot and saying "OMG LEIK SLIPKNOT IS GAI AND I'M NOT EVER LEEVING! LOL" Furthermore, you're illiterate. You're can't comprehend simple statements and start arguments over nothing. When you learn English properly, and have a better attitude, maybe you'd be able to stay, but you're just digging yourself into a deeper grave every time you post here with your illiterate crap. Congratulations, you fail.
