$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Schweinshaxe', 'I')'ll tell you what's funny. There is a name, Fittinger which is not so uncommon in the USA. When I see or hear that name I think of a woman at a job I had some years ago. Her name was Inger but we always called her Fitt-Inger. I think that's hilarious! I doubt though that you think that's funny.


:-D :-D :-D
Peak oil is not an energy crisis. It is a liquid fuel crisis.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Starvid', 'F')or those that don't understand.

1. There is a real company called "Peak Oil".

2. Their symbol is a peak, as pictured above.

3. This is funny.

4. Hahahahaha. Ha.


Funny yes, sarcasm no. It's irony.

As in "How ironic there is a company called peak oil just as we experience peak oil"

Similary, "How ironic that there is a chap from Uppsala on PO.com".
