Call me incomprehensible will you, rassafrassa mutter-mutter... p.s. Star Wars started a long, horrible nosedive into mediocrity after episode IV.

[quote who="AdmiralRevan" reply="37507" id="3014428"]... Say wha-? [/quote] Banned for ignorance of postmodernist banter and refusing to use the damned inter-tubes to look up Ann Landers after you already admitted you look shit up.
Banned because that's probably folks assuming that being British is all about being prissy. They're forgetting the business of using your lower classes like draft animals and forcibly replacing foreign governments simply to secure raw materials and/or export markets. p.s. In case you don't get it, that's a sarcastic compliment. You're a polite little hard-ass.
[quote who="AdmiralRevan" reply="37498" id="3014390"]Banned for technical bans. My brain hurts... [/quote] Banned because the founder of this atrociously long thread said we must have an "outrageous, silly, or funny reason." That's wiggle-room of the highest order, what with how subjective all three adjectives are. Perhaps you need to take philosophy more seriously. [video]http://www.youtube.com/watch?
[quote who="AdmiralRevan" reply="37487" id="3014340"]Banned for making me google 'praxis.' [/quote] Banned for using a brand name as a verb. That's only kosher if you're Southron and talking about carbonated soft drinks or paper to blow your nose on. Or if the don't-be-evil folks are actually paying you. p.s. For basic searches, give Scroogle a try.
@The Admiral: Banned because your art somehow pushed the quote button out of view, and your joke is tired old crap from the Reagan era. Government isn't the problem, stupidity up and down the ranks of citizens and leaders is the problem. [quote who="JA_394" reply="37429" id="3013872"]@Swicord: Banned because weed is not the worst illegal drug out there by far, and it does the least amount of harm to you, if it does any at all. But until someone can prove to me that legalizing an i

[quote who="JA_394" reply="37418" id="3013842"]Banned for whose weed are you smoking? *Grabs Nightstick*[/quote] Banned because it drives me 'round the bend every time I think about how much good legalizing weed would do for the economy and public budgets. The time might be coming at last. Gallup's been polling about the issue for decades, and just recently they found 50% nationwide <a href="http://www.gallup.com/poll/150149/Record-High-Am

Misguided certainty is behind all manner of horrors, ranging from petty annoyances like the ribbon in Office to mass murders by authoritarian dictators.
[quote who="Scoutdog" reply="37384" id="3013459"]Banned because the picture does not define which one represents less and which one represents more. The joke still stands.[/quote] Banned for suddenly being so bloody postmodern. You're usually such a stickler for thinking like a math nerd.
Banned because the joke is broken. Biologically, that's a beautiful picture of 'less being more.' The big puffy one is a reproductive failure because its seeds were too sticky to fly away. The bare one is the winner, in selfish gene terms anyway.
Banned because writing helps you be more careful about your own thoughts. Nattering face-to-face is much more vulnerable to subjectivity problems. When you write stuff, you're on the record and what you write can be parsed against other sources such as dictionaries, grammar manuals, and newspapers. When you start speaking extemporaneously with no recording devices around, all you have to go on in the future is individual memories, which are notoriously unreliable.
Banned because you need to get over your bigotry issue there. And I'm saying that as a confirmed pacifist who has reluctantly accepted that my species has a horrible penchant for brutality--fixing this shit is a long-term problem, not something you and I can expect to see resolved in our 'average' lifetimes. You're way off base when you talk that way about the U.S. and, if you're talking more generally, you're still way off base about "the fundamental conceit o

Banned for assuming that "Limey Man" is one of you surgery-obsessed, body-loathing, backwards-hat-wearing 'borgs. His "we" looked an awful lot like he was claiming to be H sapiens sapiens.
