Not everyone gets subsidies to buy those wheel mouses, you know...



Well that's just not fair. I'm sure there are mouses out there who could afford four wheels, we'll just take their wheels and rotate them. I mean redistrict them. Oh you know what I mean.

I couldn't care less if you post here or not. You wanna go, go, don't make a thread about it. You wasted enough of my time that it would take more of my time to delete this post than hit reply so...

Joe Bob 04-27-2011 05:39 PM

This whole thread is a waaste of Oxygen.....

Bill Douglas 04-27-2011 05:47 PM

Sorry can't talk, busy right now.

mossguy 04-27-2011 07:25 PM

Wait, what?

speeder 04-27-2011 10:00 PM

No need for anyone to get their panties in a twist over this thread. It's just become a boring forum. There used to be more wit or something(?) Maybe it's the natural evolution of a bbs where many people have known each other forever and have just run out of things to say.

My only response would be, "who are you?" You must be like the kid who sits next to someone in homeroom for a year and they never notice you. I recognise the user name but otherwise you're an empty leisure suit.

That’s pretty arrogant of you to assume I know you! LOL! At only about 3k posts I suppose you may not know me but you’re at 14k+ posts and I still don’t know you. Maybe you're that kid you speak of? You’ve already resorted to name calling, maybe you should go.

All I do know is the whole point of this is to fill some empty void in your life to get attention that you feel you deserve. Maybe your parents didn’t give you enough attention as a child so you came up with this pointless thread to help fill that void. I dunno. So the bottom line is you stay and enjoy this great community or leave because you’re bored. I really don’t care. But I highly doubt you will be truly missed.

No hard feelings on my end and maybe we can be friends in a different thread, but I’m done with this one...

Did somebody say 'leisure suit'?

How can this forum have jumped the shark?
Here is a guy in a leisure suit, with a Pinto!
Where else you gonna find that kind of entertainment?

Pinto? He's rockin' a fleet of Vegas there, with a Chevette to spare.

Triple sweetness.

Vega? Did someone say Vega? (Although it ran much better w/ the 350 in it).....

Let me be the first to say that I know Denis(in the real world) and he's a damn nice guy. And I'd consider him a friend whether he likes/participates in this forum or not.

Zeke 04-28-2011 07:44 AM

I know Denis as well. Not too well, but I think I know what makes him tick.

Denis is one who likes to stay informed and connected to what's going on. He reads the news voraciously. He comes here to get another perspective on current events. He's a very interactive guy, loves the public scene.

I used to say that I only needed PPOT for current news breaks because one of you will always start a thread when something is happening. Or something interesting, even bizarre.

IMHO, Denis is saying that this forum has become trite along with being useful. The ratio of trite to useful being the critical consideration. It's also become provincial. People with a few hundred posts are summarily dismissed.

Hell, Wayne doesn't post here anymore and he used to post quite a bit. With more opinion, I think he (he being maybe both Denis and Wayne) has better things to do.

What say you, Denis?

I was just thinking out loud. If it was a ploy for attention, it certainly was not from my conscience mind. Maybe just frustrated because this has been one of my morning stops on the internet for so many years and it's taking a dump(?)

Thanks for the kind words. And to anyone offended; sorry but if the shoe doesn't fit, don't wear it.

And the turn towards a Vega thread is welcome. :)

I'm not sure why you posted in this one to begin with. (twice)

To hear yourself "talk"?

Trying to lighten things up a bit there Denis.....and yes sammy, I guess I could wield a mean drill.....;)

Maybe I should have said "well-prepared Vega"....
