I think that would have an adverse effect on the flying using burning jet fuel part.

I can see the lawsuit forming now.

Hilarious.

I loved the part when Janitor calls another Latina nurse as a "young Carla"-- and she goes crazy.

YOU BE WELCOME. (Not fli but everyone else who wants to watch tons of shit any time all the time, including like every episode of Scrubs).

Wow--
I guess this was serious enough for Wade to post this:

We have recently had a couple users get a visit from the Secret Service over posts they made that included threats towards the President. YOU CAN NO DO THIS! YOU CAN NO JOKE ABOUT THIS! The Secret Service has to investigate any threat made towards the President, even if it apperas to be a joke, and no matter what the age is of the person making the threat.

I personally got a call from the Secret Service just last week at my home over a post made on our forums. I just heard another user had the Secret Service show up at his house and question him and his family. I can't verify that for sure, but I can verify I was contacted by the Secret Service regarding another user.

So unless you want to risk the Secret Service showing up at your home, possibly taking your computer, quesetioning your family, maybe friends, teachers, etc, DO NOT JOKE AROUND.

If you find this hard to believe go Google up info about the Secret Service and you will see just how seriously they take threats, even if they appear to be harmless jokes.

While I was happy to assist the Secret Service in their investigation, and the agent was very nice and proffesional, I don't appreciate that the user who made the threat wasted my time and our government's time.

From now on anyone who makes a threat against the President, or anything that would warrant an investigation by the Secret Service, the offending user will have their account terminated, possibly after WE contact the Secret Service ourselves to report the threat made.

DO NOT screw around with this. You do not want to find yourself on some government watch list, have the SS coming to your door, etc, over what you think is a joke.

If anyone leaves any smart ass replies to this topic, such as a threat to the President, your account will be terminated.

I wonder if this was people around here...

This is probably the only time in this thread's history that the year we're posting in will be the same numerical value as the number of pages in the thread.

Unless this thread dies someday.

Does less than a page worth of posts a year count as dead?

Hmm, methinks probably

To the best of my knowledge, no. Most of the users around here know better than to make percieved threats at the president. But I will say this; Wade is not fucking around on this issue, and I don't blame him.

Oh, and in other news; my car is DEAD. Dead as in, I was on my way to work this afternoon for the second half of my split shift, and the engine threw a rod. I was planning on scrapping the car sooner than having the engine rebuilt (blue book value; $400 at the most), but now this little fuckup has helped me to speed up those plans. I'm working out a deal with my parents to buy a Cadillac they have for sale, but...

I r sad. :-(

My car went BOOOOM put-put-put-put-put *belches black smoke*

Hey, I would really consideri it a complete if they took that much attention to my joke.
Really.

I'm so debating to do this right now.

Screw it, I'll start a myspace with this idea, lets see what happens.

did hippies ever do anything for anyone? why do i hate them so much?

Do they make overseas housecalls? I better make sure i got some of that "quality shit" coffee in da house.

FYI-- I didn't write it, just posting Wade's words. (I think everyone got it, but it doesn't hurt to mention it again.)

I just saw Pirates of the Carribean.
Go. Fucking. See. It.

The best of the trilogy.

7.) It's awsome.

End of Spoiler.

If you're at a party that you're supposed to count money at, DON'T DRINK ALCOHOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And the worst thing is that my friends have told me that I've been touching this hawt girl, AND I CAN'T REMEMBER A THING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DAMN!
And also, the taxi driver screwed us, started to drive in circles and all, I paid 7 pesos, for a trip that was worth 2. >:(!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*falls asleep*

I can't believe how relieving throwing up can be.
Pirates of the Caribbean has been since Thursday here, I ve only seen the first one, and I'll keep it like that.

we flush them out with a lot of water, pick out any debri, wash around the wound with soap and water and then clean it out again with PI diluted water. normally EMS doesn't clean wounds

Lol, that's a weird scenario. I can't imagine...

today we went to a popular bouldering site in the area and we put two guys up on a rock on ropes, one was ASM, and owuldn't let go of the belay he had his friend on. one girl choked on a tootsi roll, fell and got impaled by a stick. i had heat exhaustion and the girl next to me had a diabetic attack.

and one girl who was totally ASM

What's ASM?

acute stress reaction, harmless, self resolving.

...it's a panic attack. they freak out and get their vital signs all out of whack and either pass out and are fine, or get PROP and get better (prop = position, reassurance oxygen if needed, rescue breathing if needed)

That's actually what I started doing when it went *boom* and the acceleration started dropping, because I thought the engine was skipping or something...

When I got home after work, I noticed that my car was home, which struck me as odd considering it wasn't driveable when I left it on the side of the road and went to work (my mother lent me her car whilst her and my dad took car of it). I was hoping against all hope that maybe a belt had slipped or something, and that the car was salveageable... WRONG. They towed it home. :-(

Thanks. ;-)

My dad said roughly the same thing when he figured out what was wrong, though. "Do we have a funeral for it?" Though the truly sad thing is we were talking about selling it yesterday morning, not a few hours before the engine blew up.

I'm sure most of you took the day off in reverance for star wars stamp day. Not since batman stamps have geekdoms come together so seemlessly. My only question is this. Why do the x-wing and millienium falcon get stamps but the death star dosent?

Argentinian independence, no, wait, that's July 9th, erm, first local government, so we had a gov. that only had Argentinians in it, BUT we still considered ourselves a Spanish colony, mainly because we are cowards :)

sort of like Mexico's cinco de mayo celebrations, not an "independence day" or even a "we won a war" day, just some random battle. instaed you guys have your government.
