I know it's an old line and he's used it before, but it was funny then too and this way I don't have to go back and find out where he used it the first time!

Then again, when PrairieMule told Schweinshaxe, "Schwein...this may be hard for you to take but you must know the truth.

I'm your mother " that was pretty funny! heh heh

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Markam', 'L')ook at Mike Tyson. He would probably box with a trained bear at the county fair for $20 now, because he couldn't control his spending.

PMS, I had to do a double take when I saw your post count! It seems to be expanding exponentially? Perhaps we could find a way to convert your posts to energy. If so, you may be 'the one'.

Actually I've slowed down lately or I'd be at 8000 plus. I'm waiting for the abiogenic posts to replenish my depleted ones!

Just a reminder to encourage everyone to second, third, etc nominations that you liked. The goal here is to be able to come up with a list of the 5 most often nominated and then make that into a poll that will decide the winner. This thread is nominating a specific post. You can echo a nomination that someone has already made. A person can also be nominated for more than one post, but each post will tally seperately.

Sorry. I'm going to have to disqualify this nomination. You didn't nominate a specific post, and that thread was all from 2005.

skiwi's quote from 1920 in the "you are surrounded by morons" thread: link

on 26th July 1920 H.L. mencken wrote

Quote:
As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.. -- H.L. Mencken
