And because dogs have scary fucking teeth. Seriously, did you ever notice on Cops that when the policedude says "come out or I'll shoot" nothing happens but those criminals skip right out and surrender to "come out or I'll send the dog in." I know some guys who are not K-9 units but they use the line anyway and the criminals are always fucking pissed when they surrender and there is no dog in sight.

You misunderstood (again). Socking is not sad. Socking with nothing to say is sad. It didn't get that way, it's always been that way. So, conclusion? You are a sock. You have nothing to say. Therefore, you are sad. Understand?

You think that personally?

I'll note that you also think I was a great at some point. Don't kiss my ass. It won't help you.

As for my current status, whatever it is, it's better than cringing behind some sock, scared to reveal who you normally post as because you don't want to lose whatever amount of goodwill you have no doubt tirelessly spent trying to build here. I'm betting it's a lot less in reality than it is in your mind, which makes you even more pathetic.

We both know you would love the attention. And since it's so obvious that's what you need, I've just banished you to the land of fu.

Ignore list? We have ignore lists? Is there any way to tell if you are on an ignore list? I suppose if you don't respond that means I am on your ignore list. :sniffle:

Go to "user cp" and click "edit ignore list." I don't know if you can tell if you're on someone's list or not. But I suspect you can't or I would have received some form of notice by now.

You're not on mine, if that means anything to you.

I have found that the ignore list has the opposite effect than intended ... the very fact that I can't see the post makes me want to read it, even though I know the post is likely to cause whatever reaction (boredom, irritation, a desire to post a response despite my better judgment) that I was trying to avoid by putting the poster on the list.

I've only put one poster on it, and I only did so because TM told me that if I engaged the poster again he would hunt me down and kill me. And if TM broke into my gunless and alarmless house, my Lab would surely show him where I was sleeping, just to be accommodating.

Would someone please tell Mister Jump To Conclusions that he is entirely wrong in all his ASSumptions about me? I am a lurker on new boards with a prior identity on old boards you may or may not know. All I did was tell Barely Legal she was being rude to Soup. Some people are so touchy. I suppose I have to have sex with someone on the boards to feel truly integrated? Being accused of being a JRUSS sock is not sufficient anymore? If anyone is on par with Mother Mary*, shoot me a PM.

From what I understand, even if your dog is a toy poodle. (Maybe especially if your dog is a poodle, those things have nasty tempers.)
Because dog bites are a tort case with juries deciding damages, they are probably right. Hell, I'd bet the burgulars could sue you for big bucks, too.

Does that mean you're my friend? My very own rolly-polly-robustpuppy-friend? weeeeeeeeeeee :bounce:


I agree on the effect of ignore features -- it kills me not to know what someone wrote. I haven't seen anything here that would cause someone to be ignored (skip the post if you don't wanna read it). On the old board I would have used it in the politics forum but only because some of those people were annoying, repetitive, ignorant fucks. Oh, okay, so are some people here but I mean that in a nice way when referring to people here. I would be simply crushed if someone like TM cared enough to go through the process of putting me on an ignore list -- then this board would be like my fleshy family and thus no longer add joy to my life.

The Displaced Dog spent a week of his late puppyhood in jail for nipping at a garbage man who had opened his gate and come into his yard. Ten days in the hoosegow, trading puppuroni in order to ensure that he wasn't made some pit bull's bitch. They let us have conjugal visits.

Anyhow, when I bought my house last year, the first insurance company that I called asked me if the Displaced Dog had ever bitten anyone, and I disclosed the several year old incident (including the paperwork that found the whole thing to have been provoked by the garbage man). I was told that there was no way that I could be absolutely sure that he wouldn't bite another person on the property. I had to hunt for another homeowners policy. My current insurer did not ask, and I did not tell.

It's good that we're not notified if we're put on one's list. I would be crushed, too. I'm very fragile. Posting here is a skin-thickening exercise that I've adopted in preparation for switching to a litigation practice.

I use the ignore feature with posters whose comments infuriate me.

I read every single post on this board -- the ignore feature enables me to avoid rereading posts I find particularly offensive.

Edited to add: the posters on my ignore list post infrequently, so y'all are not among them.

Your insurer asked if you had pets? Mine never did -- if I had been asked, I would have had to disclose my gaggle of ferocious kitty-cats and one less than fierce pussy-dog. Even more shocking to me was their utter lack of concern over the pool -- I always thought a pool made your insurance sky-rocket. Live and learn. Of course, the only real possible risk is my getting drunk and drowning in the jacuzzi (or having the tv fall in while I bubble and watch the Cup finals) so maybe the insurance company wasn't concerned about paying out such a minor loss.

but I know that a French-Canadian goalie and a guy named Niedermayer will win.

I didn't mean to suggest that comedy = dreck. I'm not saying he should make more serious movies, I'm saying he should make better funny ones. But -- at the risk of being called out for reviewing a movie I haven't actually seen -- I've heard that in Bruce Almighty, his character is a jerk whom we're supposed to like simply because he's played by Carrey. This sounds a little too familiar.

Am happy to be contradicted by anyone who's actually seen his recent stuff.

but I know that a French-Canadian goalie and a guy named Niedermayer will win.
 

Oh no. Our first spat. A disagreement over Schoeny. Oh my. :argue:

You do not like he who was the first defenseman drafted in 1972? You dislike the man of whom it is said "Few Sabre fans will ever forget the 1972 December evening when Schoeny took Bruins' Wayne Cashman "outside," and, for good measure, man-handled two other big, bad Bruins in the same contest." I am heartbroken that you do not respect the man who, along with Tim Horton, helped the Sabres in 1972-73 to attain the third-best single-season improvement in modern National Hockey League history and, in only their third season, achieve "a playoff berth in a rugged Eastern Division stocked with established NHL powerhouses."

By request I am informing you, it ain't JRUSS.


Oh, and no, you cannot see who has you on an ignore list (if anyone.) I suppose I could, but I would have to go searching through code, and well, not gonna happen.

No argument here. That's exactly who his character is. And you're right, it's true to form. I was just comparing that to when he tries to break away from such characters. When he tries to be anyone else, it's always more disappointing than when he sticks with what has worked. I guess his problem is that he needs good material.

But isn't that everyone's problem?

Cary Grant, Humphrey Bogart, and Adam Sandler all based their careers on this gambit. Two of them are considered great actors.

No silly, I like him. Don't you remember the infamous Schoenfeld-Don Koharski dispute during the 1988 (I think) playoffs? When Schoenfeld yelled that at Koharski? (Also part of a Wayne's World inside joke - i.e. Officer Koharski who loved crullers.)

I am impressed, oh knowledgeable one of the rink. :bow:

That was when Koharski accused Schoeny of pushing him in the tunnel. As I recall it, Schoeny was suspended, the Devils got a court injunction to cancel the suspension and the referees refused to work Game 4 requiring replacement officials. To resolve the controversy, the NHL suspended Schoenfeld for Game 5.

I didn't connect it. I suck.
