The WORST Threads On The Forum Are?

[Joe Hutch]

Threads where people act like big girls' blouses if someone is unkind about their choice of boxes and wires.

 

[Craig B]

Certainly not. However, Miss Austen is cited in the OED as the first published use of the words 'baseball' and 'doorbell'.

She was way out in left field for her time, that Jane.

 

[Joe Hutch]

Labour, Labour, Labour, remain.

Got any more damn fool questions?

Yes. How can you vote when you've got paws instead of hands?

I learn something new every day

did she pitch for the Yankees?

 

[suzywong]

I get my staff to submit a proxy vote, of course

surely you would not expect a superior being such as myself (a tortie Burmese) to sully her paws with such base tasks...........

(anyway, i'm actually deceased. Signed SW)

Alan,

Have I become that predictable?

Joe

I clearly recall, back in the '60s, while watching this episode 'live', thinking that it figures that McCoy would be the first officer to succumb.

Dunno. The quote is from Northanger Abbey: 'It was not very wonderful that Catherine..should prefer cricket, base ball..to books'. Personally, I've always preferred books.

Not like Charles Greville, then.

Actually, Scotty did. He was quite mean to Mr. Spock. If Mr. Spock weren't a Vulcan he would have cried.

I think I need a JA reading session, to go along with listening to the complete set of Bach cantatas.........

Still, what else am I going to do in retirement......

OTOH, it's pushing on 11 o'clock, and I'm sat on the patio in a T-shirt watching the hedgehogs and the fox.....and there's still some vino left in the bottle...........

Wow. Is this first ever PFM post from beyond by a cat?

If yes, it should be made a sticky, or bronzed or something.

 

[KrisW]

However, i'm not sure that Miss Austen would have used the word "sh1tload" in this context - do we have any JA aficionados on the forum who would care to comment?

An "ordurous abundance", perhaps?

Couldn't vote Piggy. They are all my favourites!

So, my memory alpha is not so clear as I thought...sniff.

Craig,

There's a lot of posturing on the forum and I'm really loath to boast, but when it comes to original Trek I'm almost like a Talosian in my mental powers.

I voted for cable thread because they are too long and the battery of my tablet gets empty when I read them !
As for the Naim or LP12 or LS3/5A threads, I find them rather interesting because they help me deciding if those products are a good fit for me or not.
DAC threads are also good for me until they get too technical and I fall asleep reading them and then wake back up and say: I don’t understand anything at all and must still rely on my ears to make my own opinion !

 

[Craig B]

Joe,

I've always pictured you as more of a Gamester of Triskelion type, hanging out in the pfm pexi-dome with the other mod brains, placing bets on the outcome of brutal forum battles, and activating member's shock collars when things get out of hand.

Craig,

I wager five thousand quatloos on h.g.

Anything in the off topic room. There was a time 7 years ago and more when I used to waste hours in there arguing with people. Never again.

You were there about a week ago.

 

[sideshowbob]

You were there about a week ago.

I had to check whether it's still full of stupidity. And it is. I won't be going back.
