$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('3aidlillahi', 'H')ow come everyone is repeating what I say?

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('3a'idlillahi', '
')What if you win the Dunce of the Day Award in addition to Village Idiot?! You will be King (of all the idiots)!


$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('BigTex', '
')But that would be pretty slick if you could snag the Dunce cap in addition to the Village Idiot tag. Sort of like a peak oil hat trick or something.


$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('3a'idlillahi', '
')Umm...doesn't a hat trick refer to three feats? Village Idiot, Dunce o' Day and what else?


$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('MD', 'I')t (The hat trick) would take three.


People are ignoring what I say. Real life has crept into my internet life. :(

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('BT', 'Y')es. Maybe "Gay Calendar Model."


Great, now we have to come up with a PO Calendar.


Actually, I was congratulating you on your excellent observation.

I was saying "yes, 3a'idlillahi has made a good point, and it would be very slick to see our Village Idiot scale even greater heights on Mount Stupid."

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('dinopello', '')$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'T')he word "dunce" was originally a reference to Bl. John Duns Scotus, a 13th century scholastic theologian, whose books on theology, philosophy, and logic were University textbooks. His followers, termed "Dunsmen" or "Dunses", were later challenged about their system of hair-splitting and distinctions. Their obstinacy over an increasing array of challenges posed first by humanists and then by reformers, led to the term "dunses" to denote fools in general.

Sounds like the official shills on the 911 thread.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Shannymara', 'I') nominate BlisteredWhippet for this:
http://www.peakoil.com/post663114.html#663114
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('BlisteredWhippet', 'I') hope for the best, but expect the worst, optimistically aiming for somewhere in the middle: a competent militant, fascist vegan state...

A Vegan-directed military will basically have the task of cutting off the third world's hand at the wrist when it grabs for the drumstick.

I second the nomination based upon BlisteredWhippet threatening to kill me with a lawnmower a while back.

I also agree with Blistered Whippet's nomination. His post linked by Shannymara is a work of art :)

I vote the people that believe 19 Arabs armed only with box cutters defeated the most advanced military force in the world, and were able to fly around for over an hour, whilst military planes were totally unable ?? to do anything. Then this enabled the neocons to invade all the countries they wanted ...

Those guys are morons.

And to take it one step further...those who think 911 has zero to do with PO...yet are "experts" here.

Can't leave well enough alone...

How bout the ones that know that the Bush admin has lied blatantly and been caught at it (Katrina, WMD, et al) numerous times, yet believe that the self-same pathological liars were 100% truthful WRT to 9/11. Of course they wouldn't lie about THAT!

Would they??? :? :?
