Odds of something nice here.
 

So...
There have been smoke free days – Where folks that smoke try to go a day without.
There are black out days – Where everyone shuts the lights out for a few hours during the day.
Carpool days.
Plant a tree day.
All sorts of special “lets do a good thing” days throughout the year.

I’m wondering what the odds of this forum having a “Nothing political at all day.”
Or, maybe a “Nothing but nice things to post to one another day.” are.

Any chance?
Or, am I nuts to even think it?

The census here is: I'm nuts.

Why bother wishing for something that's impossible?

I love you man (in a non-homosexual comrade kind of way.... group hug.

You are NOT getting my Bud Light.

you're nuts. I would like to see more smoke free days in my life though.

Actually, I've observed a marked increase in respect between members over the past two months.

The level of infractions or warnings is down to a negligible level and folks appear to respect other opinions to a reasonable level, even when they don't agree with them.

Politics is always going to introduce some emotions into the mix..........it's the nature of the beast..........because there is no absolute answer.

You're right. It never fails to surprise me after reading posts by members in the car forums where everthing is helpful, comrade-ly, supportive, etc., to then read posts from some of these same guys in the Open Discussion forum. Where did they leave their helpful, accommodating nature?

Politics is so embedded in our culture that its nearly impossible to avoid. We can go on and try to talk about something for a day but some comment will cause someone else to disagree, then all hell breaks loose. I think its a good opportunity to see conflicting viewpoints and shows the great freedom that we have in America (and on the internet!) - free speech. Sometimes people can get sour over those who disagree but I think we're generally pretty civilized here.

I'm guilty of the same behavior. Although I cannot explain it, some of the political positions cause an emotional response that is neither appropriate nor helpful.

I assume that this behavior is common in most people.

I attempt to avoid all political discussions for this reason...........not always successfully.

Yes. :)

Ok. We’ll go with that.
I think Randy’s post (#3) probably covered it best.

I understand the “nature of the beast”.
I just thought it would be interesting to see if this forum could make it one day without anybody *****’n about the government in one way or another. I guess not.

I’ll go back to wishful thinking and just being nuts. :rolleyes:

So long as the government keeps letting me fly, I’ll be happy nuts. :D

Carry on with the geez’n.

..and I'll be fuzzy nuts




good thread! You've got my vote.

BTW, I don't disagree with the sentiment. ;)

Which is why I really try like heck to avoid the political threads, although it does seem to find its way into virtually every thread regardless of subject.

Mine are not fuzzy. That is what they made the Gillette Fusion 5 Blade Razor for.

Is that one of the vibrating ones? :001_unsure:

They have the electrical ones but I am afraid that if I ever bought one, I might not get out of the shower. :D:D

Im going with "Your Nuts."



(There is no political crud in this thread... Yet.)

I couldn't let it go for too much longer. I know why Aklim spends so much time shaving his, err, well you know, "It's Bush's fault"! Does that count as both a political post and a bad joke?

Join the parade Aklim :P:D

Those girls look so ugly Dad probably tied a pork chop around their neck to get the family dog to play with them.

Lesbians against Bush is mutually exclusive. Isn't it all about bush against bush?

Maybe they shave too? :D

That reminds me of a time I saw Bush Sr. speak 3 or 4 years ago. He had plenty of great little stories and anecdotes, but this one stuck in my head.

He was in his presidential limo traveling somewhere shortly after making pro-life remarks in support of something in the state. When he arrived at his destination, there were droves of women protesting. Apparently a hideous, unkempt, burly woman got way too close to him and yelled, "Stay the hell out of my womb!"

Bush responded, "Hey, no problem lady." :D

That’s one of the things that brought this to mind.
And sure enough...

I’ll admit I had no idea it would go into the details of shaving ones junk in the shower however.

But then, when Aklim jumps onboard, nothing down those lines surprises me.:rolleyes:

I’ve heard worse. :)

Even from passengers. :eek:

Typical BS liberal thread ;0

Hmmmm. That not something that I would want to say as a passenger.

LOL

Great post.
I love it.

BTW - You're damn right it is.

:D

then that makes you 'White Supremacist Nuts' (or 'Nazi Nuts' as a term of endearment)


...welcome to the family.

Whose nuts are you referring to when you say "your nuts"??? Or did you mean to say "you're nuts"? Perhaps a Freudian slip? :eek::D

Seig Heil? Is that the right greeting? :D

I've never really enjoyed shaving my face. The attraction of shaving the working parts of the sexual devices has really always escaped me. The danger of stubble would simply create another place that needs shaving daily and one that is fairly tricky to shave to boot.

Fur is fine with me.

Many of the posters here in OD do not post much at all in the helpful forums.

Actually here is where we get to post to soothe our alter-egos. We play nice and helpfull on the other boards and we need someplace to restore our "evil side" equilibrium.

And OD isn't helpful? I've uncovered a treasure trove of knowledge and helpfulness here.

I think you're right.;)

"It's impossible, ask a baby not cry, it's just impossible" please hum(pun intended) to Frank Sinatra tune...

We ALL suffer from some degree of the Dr. Jeckell/ Mr Hyde syndrome.

Can I get a grant to study that? PP would be my universe, and I'd share the grant with you all ( If the grant is large enough....)

It's impossible...
Tell the sun to leave the sky,
It’s just impossible...

Now I've got that stuck in my head for the rest of the day. :mad:

Gee thanks Sid.:rolleyes:

carpet munchers against bush.

no problemo....isn't it time for you to be exercising the stick?

I’ll be exercising two of them (collective & cyclic. Not what others here are probably thinking.) in about 45 minutes.
A "No fun. Biz flight.":rolleyes:

You like licking on a brillo pad? I don't. It isn't that difficult once you get started.

I'm emailing you a ~30 sec. MP3 file of the result of this post.
It’s what happens when our worlds collide inside a helicopter.
Hope you like it. ;)

And yes... It’s still stuck in my head. :mad:
