Generally, when your company offers you a promotion.... - groiny Oct 8, 13:25 7

  - Niiice. And here I was, impressed with my 176.65 in the Krusty league. - hellSpawn Oct 8, 11:45 2

    - Potato, potato. -- nm - Ender Oct 8, 11:36 1

  - Nice. Hold onto those nights. -- nm - hellSpawn Oct 8, 11:29
  - Is it this guy? -- (link) - kilboooooo Oct 8, 11:29 1
    - I've read that story before. Honestly they guy that comes off as the douche is the writer. I found Marx to be pleasant and kind of funny. He - pmb Oct 8, 11:41
- Eh, it don't mean nothing. -- nm - hellSpawn Oct 8, 11:25
Cows painted with old style prison uniforms get bitten alot less by horse flies than unpainted cows -- (link*) - decline Oct 8, 11:16 8
- They look like zebras to me. - . Oct 8, 12:20
- I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest that flies don't like paint, and if they painted the whole cow maybe it wouldn't get bit at all -- nm - Geist Oct 8, 11:58 1
  - They tested it. It's not the paint -- nm - TWuG Oct 8, 12:20

*sigh* There's times that I feel like I should be apologizing for being an American Male. Why are there people like this guy? - JD Oct 8, 11:07 3
- A bit weird to drag your own nationality into this. You know what they do to women who try to get abortions in other countries?? -- nm - con_carne Oct 8, 11:40 2
  - Maybe because it didn't happen in another country? -- nm - . Oct 8, 12:22 1
