The Everyone's Welcome Thread (even Canadians, SEO experts, and oldies..you get the idea).

[DU]

I thought I'd start a new break room thread. The great thing about this thread is you can say whatever the heck you want (except adult) and it's ON TOPIC.

All you have to do is post whatever is in your head when you are here. Simple.

Here are some acronyms we like to use:

YPSBT Your Post Sucks Big Time
YPITDB Your post is the dog's bollox
LPOD - Last Post of Day
FPOD - First....
SPOD - Second.
FPOTWN - Funny Post of the Week Nominee

Grace Delete / DefaultUser / WorldsWorstDomainer will personally thank EVERY SINGLE post in this thread UNTIL someone says something about post count and gets too obsessed about reputations and starts gaming the system etc.

^ That has happened so no more ...was fun while it lasted.

Johname will personally LIKE every post in this thread until he doesn't

No racist, sexist, homophobic material that woudnt be acceptable in the 70s please.
We are ok with boobs and we are ok with men with abs (or whatever it is that makes them attractive). Ogling is healthy. Violence, not accepting that it is shallow and non-meaninful judge of people etc. is not. The most important virtue of this thread is respect for all.

Here are some topics that this thread has had:

The following subjects are
BANNED

So Kardashian related material is not allowed - even gratuitous boobs or bums because no one wants to see or hear about them.

POLITICS OF ANY KIND IS A NO NO.
Especially if it is demeaning to the liberal elite or the conservative morons.

I suppose Anarchy is ok

I AM PERSONALLY UNDECIDED ON SOME POLITICS so things like the below?
I think the crowd should decide.

We are also lady and animal friendly

Attempted to not see the Sharks updates during my game and post-game to leave me to watch dtmts.com after and it didn't work

@iowadawg had the chance to post that Willie Nelson pic on post # 55420
(still could if you wanna edit and swap the pics)
<-had never heard of nor knew what that term was until unx was mid 30s age

refer to myself in third person in notes to myself in real life too, so other people reading my notes can follow along if neccessary

 

[johname]

I dont believe the origin of 420. That's all I will say on that

This woman who saved that Southwest plane where the engine exploded totally deserves the badass of the week award. Big hole in the side of the plane and she’s dealing with it as calmly as if she’s ordering takeout.

I was curious about the exact cause, so looked and NTSB video first look found on youtube, it was only one fan blade. Could have been much worse. Yesterday, I Looked into the AD issued August last year, the FAA inspector who wrote it claims a 2 hr job to inspect (really IMO... way underestimated), today Reuters writes article about SW objecting to FAA estimate to comply with the AD, my exact thoughts. Now new AD forthcoming, they better dictate they inspect all blades. This is second incident.

600 year old astronomical clock in Prague...

Did you photoshop that? That was the most dank, dark thing when I was there. I saw no stained glass or colors. Maybe they sand blasted it. I have to find my photo. Really is a cool place though.

Lol...My notes that other people read , my "3rd person" is "B" which I jokingly refer to as "Boss"...

I dont believe the origin of 420. That's all I will say on that
**********************************

I have a few "420" keyword domains, not sure about the "urban legend" about how the term started!
But if they get searches/sells, why not go along...if it ain't broke, don't fix it!

 

[iowadawg]

The Story of 4/20
A group of students called the Waldos pioneered the term, and their connections with the Grateful Dead catapulted 420 into our lexicon..

Now go to ROLLING STONE for the article...
I wanted my picture in the ROLLING STONE, but no...

Ct Scan last week...
CT Scan again next monday morning.
Had to clear the monday one with my kidney doctor and to make sure my vascular doctor knew about what to have done prior and during and after the scan.

Nobody questioned the 42?
In my top post?

 

[johname]

Here is a graph to help understand the concept. Steps 4-11 of a story can be super duper well known and documented and indisputable(pink). But there are that 1-4 steps that could easily have been whitewashed to make a 'cute story' .

We just thought you made a booboo

*******************************

I think there is an important hockey game tonight

 

[iowadawg]

What? Me make a booboo?
You amuse me at times for sure....

Why the answer to everything is 42?
The number 42 is, in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams, the "Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything", calculated by an enormous supercomputer named Deep Thought over a period of 7.5 million years. Unfortunately, no one knows what the question is.

When I seen the top post of your, all it had was the number in it..just thought it was a "placard" (can't think of a better word..kind of spot filler till something better comes up).. was tempted to quote you and post "43" lol

Lots of specialist....hope your visits will become less and less...

 

[usernamex]

unx knows 42 unx also knows 242 unx owns domains based on these numbers

Already more Avalanche hockey than anyone expected, except maybe the team, they believe and it's fun to watch.

The object of next monday ct scan?
My aortic aneurysm is now at 6 centimeters wide, the dangerous size.
But because of the location, etc...surgeon can not do simply fix.
So scan will show what is what and where and will be sent to a company that will come up with exactly what is needed to fix the problem...
Depending on fix, either up via my groin area, or cut me open...
AAA is next to my stomach.

Fishermen will get this one....

No photoshoping from my part. Perhaps they sand blast cleaned it... like you said.

Last time I photoshoped something was to congradulate Johname on becoming King of the "most posts" in NamePros...

I seemed to have a relapse or something, almost passed out from pain this morning. So that sucks. Think I overdid the stretching or something who knows. Big video drop. Was looking at videos from where I used to live, PHV - Patrick Henry Village in Germany, 6 years total just that village. Closed down everything there, bases, schools etc. There were refugees living there, now it seems they're going to turn it into some future city, new tech, startups etc. Guy said Buffet is even investing. But first a video of a prank. Seniors got a boat trip at the end of the year, I guess some Juniors decided to dump water on them. At the end somebody from the boat tries to throw a glass, it hits the bridge and glass goes back at them. Peep the nice mountains and scenery.

Senior boat prank, listen to all the screaming:

New village

Dytto drop while I'm here and one of the best poppers as bonus.
