    The only way to beat the game...is to refuse to play. Period. Social media...pfft. Bring it all crumbling to the ground.

    Sadly, this board is my one last vice, but alas...even I ain't perfect
    I wish I am able to live long enough to do all the things I was attributed to.

      If you are carrying a large, unopened umbrella, please do not walk around holding it parallel to the ground and swing it back and forth while you are walking on a crowded sidewalk!

        My boss has reached a new low in his incorrect apostrophe usage. Today he sent an email with an apostrophe in a person's first name that happens to end in 's'. No possessive. For instance, if your name was Ulysses... he said "Ulysse's".

          Reminds me of the joke about all the Irish people who voted for O'Bama....

            Do some of you read every single FB update since your last visit? I guess I just don't run into the, "my dog learned a new trick" idiots for some reason. I see the occasional political rant but not only do I skip it the second I understand their point, but I also don't get upset that some find it necessary to pontificate. I have a friend that just hates living here for his own personal reasons, and even if I read a full post that makes zero sense I don't get upset. Move on people.

              To those golfers who get done putting on the green and then stay there to add their strokes and then talk about a particular shot. Get off the **** green and add up your scores on the next tee box.

                  You are in a thread whose sole purpose is to ***** about mundane things and you are surprised to see people *****ing about mundane things? Either you are going for irony or you completely missed the point...

                      I think Handy understands that, but SlapShot doing that grinds Handy's gears. And you failing to understand that grinds my gears.

                        how many gears could a groundhog grind, if a groundhog could grind gears?

                            Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

                                I don't have the best syntax/structure by any means, but at least I know basic grammar. It's astounding how bad people are nowadays.
