Oh jeez, I made a grevious spelling error and now I must end my life. Unfortunatly all I have in the icebox is half a head of lettuce. I shall take some pics of me and the lettuce... sexily, then post em here and hang myself.

Don't!
Of course, I can't stop you...

I mean, please don't do it. It'd be
Tragic.

huh? it was not an allusion to your grammar or spelling, friend. as you can see by mine i could give a crap, and funnily enough, i was ridiculed by w-hatters in a thread a few months back for my grammar.

dont be so thick. i was poking fun at you, not your grammar. surely you recognize irreverent fun poking? :confused:

gee golly, did you just display some sensitivity? shame on you, teh intarweb is NOT serious business!

I dont plan on it.
My wife wouldnt approve.

Generally she wouldnt care
And would actually help me do it
Yellow squash turns me on

Furthermore,
Only you can help me
Remember what this thread was all about.

ONLY YOU!

edit- Oh I get it... my mental capabilities are that of Terry Sciavo... The late great american martyr.

Kallista be thanked,
I was hoping I could
Save you from hurting yourself or
Something even worse.

Moved, I am, by the release of
Emotional energy from not having to worry.

You have to agree, she had an
Ostensibly profound effect on a lot of folks.
Unfortunate that she wasn't mentally there to see it.

Depressingly, it's a reminder that not a
One of is
Protected from
Eternity.

oh yeah! you got me there! Zing! SUBJECTIVE ALERT!

I didnt answer, because you would have written off any answer I gave, whilst playing obtuse, again. not to mention, you know damned well why I asked, which is why you immediately started saying porn should be free to display outside, because then you can justify that build of the towers a little more. transparent. you can do better!

you can claim youve "licked" me, it doesnt mean a goddamned thing.

*ring* *ring*

Mom: hello?

Huns: "mom, i "licked" this girl on the intarweb!"

Mom: "oh huns, i am SO proud of you, someday you will win teh intarweb completely!"

Mom (to dad): "hunny, our boy is well on his way to winning teh intarweb! and you argued with me about getting him that commodore!"



What gives you the right to insist that other people conform to your ideas of what is or isn't in good taste? You asked if the structure could be seen from outside our land. Where were you going with that exactly? And why are you incapable of answering my questions without heaping on all these insults? It makes you look like a clown.

I once knew a brigand,
such a rascal was he

he left curious prose,
when crimes he would flee

alas, the shiriff did catch him
and jailed him with glee

the bardic cretin broke rhythm,
and cried "please set me free!"

the shiriff stood grinning,
and said "boy don't you see?"

"you're to meet your maker,
it's the gallows for thee!"

Can you contribute even one thing to this thread that isn't an arbitrary personal preference or a personal attack?

I think you're on the right track but you don't fully get it

Points for being the first one not in on it to see it even if you don't yet grok it fully

Well I for one have no problem with the build.
Everyone has a right to free speech even those with bad taste.
Little has everyone remembered what our forefathers died for.
Careful we must be when deciding what is humorous and what isn’t.
On September 11th everyone was sad and remorseful, even the W-hats.
Many of us like to deal with that grief in humorous ways.
Everyone has ways of coping with these tragedies.

Time and time again I have had great experiences with W-hat.
Over all they are a very nice group and are always laid back and ready to chill.

Periodically we see a thread such as this.
All the attacking starts and no one ever wins the fight.
Give me a reason we should continue this thread and make others about W-hat.
Elephants with lasers will not stop Jeska from closing them.

1 more thread?
2 more threads?

Lets see how long we can shout at each other for.

Nothing here needs to be debated. If this issue was brought to the Linden's attention, and no action was taken, then 'THEREFORE', apparently there's nothing wrong with the build. End of story. If its offensive to you, it might not be to someone else.

Showing this sort of thing isn't against the TOS. It's only against the TOS if someone has built it on another's land. Plain and simple.

There is absolutely no need for the entire community to bring pitch forks on people who do this sorta thing.

You haven't read the TOS or CS have you.

What exactly that we're doing is against the CS. Not to mention TOS. Harrasment. The entire COMMUNITY doesn't NEED TO BE INVOLVED IN THIS. It could had been done PRIVATELY via the Lindens. This entire thread is against it.

And since if the Lindens DONT respond to certain people's requests, then its brought up as a drama pitch. For someone's personal entertainment.

I don't find it funny.
