I wish we could all get along like we used to in middle school...

GM and Rudnicki are gonna settle this at the Bike Rack at 2:45!

But complaining about the lack of entertaining topics in here while at the same time bad-mouthing it offline seems silly to me. And I'm probably not the only person who posts at both places who feels this way.

was trying to help by pointing it out in here.

guess I won't bother anymore.

What we need is for people like Tre, Charv, Disco Stu, Guster et al to come back and bring the funny. Do you have any suggestions on how to bring them back? Because these are the guys going to the Derby and engaging in hijinks. I'd love to read all about it, but I can't drag them in here and force them post.

I just don't understand the mindset of complaining about something without putting in any effort to to change it. I'm not talking about you specifically; it's a larger commentary on the faction of great posters who don't post here anymore and complain about what they are left with. Ran into that with my fraternity my last two years. All the older guys whined constantly about the good old days and how much more fun it used to be, yet none of them were willing to take it upon themselves to make it better. Frustrating.

Cake Draft should make it all better, though.

I'm here, going to the derby, and not being funny. I'm the worst.

I've already offered to get pregnant at the Derby. Not sure what else I can do.

So I get to go bareback? Sweet!!!

So I was hoping to have a free evening in Paris, go see the Eiffel tower, etc. Took a train from Lyon to Paris which was about 2 hours, then got on the wrong shuttle bus and went to teh wrong hotel, which was about 90 minutes. By the time I got to my actual hotel, we were too tired and didn't feel like getting back on a train for 90 minutes to each way to go downtown. So we stayed at the hotel bar and drank.

I can't find any French fries here.

 

[RedmondLonghorn]

If things don't lively up in here soon I am going to submit my Arena Rock Anthems playlist for review and comment.

Also, no French toast. They call that "lost bread".

Well, no...they're not children. They're grown ups. They also enjoy wine and coffee and not chocolate milk or Yohoo or whatever it is you buy in a vending machine.

Who wouldn't order a chilled paste made of cuts of variety meat and internal organs and packed in a mysterious clear gelatin?

You kidding me, dude? You know what the Starbucks at the train station had? Baskets of pancakes in the glass case. They love their sweets here.

yesbut if I mention it, you'll probably just yell at me some more.

Aaron, I am sorry I came across like a jerk. You're one of my favorite people on the boards and I consider you a real life friend. I find it frustrating that this thread comes under attack by the very people who can make it better but don't. That is all. I apologize for being a jerk but you've met me, I'm a little off and easily come unglued. Beers and steak bites on me next time you visit your kin.

Thank goodness. If you guys got divorced, I'm not sure how I'd choose who to post with.

Flew over here on Monday. Left Cincinnati at 4:00 PM, arrived in Paris at about 6:00 AM. Wasn't able to sleep. Then took a train for 2 hours, then worked a full day. Was dead tired by the time got back to the hotel, and the only thing to eat was a "tapas" plate that included this ####.

From the "Did Muhammad Exist?" thread..

The virgins that brave Muslim men are supposed to enjoy in Paradise (Koran 44:51-57, 52:17-24, 56:27-40) may not be virgins at all, but rather white raisins

Heaven sure is fancy.
