Ah, well I can't go in there, so I guess that ends it.  I guess to whomever had to inject politics in a build thread, thanks.

I chuckled at the irony of people cramming arcade games into spare rooms criticizing a guy cramming guns into a spare room.  Fairly mild given my history.

The secret is to cram guns into an arcade cab then cram THAT into a spare room.  It's like an entertaining and dangerous Truducken. :applaud:

I guess I should have said it was a hidden room that I wanted to use to protect my classic console collection.   :dunno

I'm not at all political, and I'm not even in the same country.  The funny thing is...I didn't want to post it on a gun forum because of the exact opposite, everyone is so anti-liberal that it's insane.

Meh, don't need any more threads moved to areas I can't read them.  I posted it up on the gun forum as it's obviously less political there.

I'm thinking you mean Turducken? I may have come up with a new one, so you read it here if so

Yeah, it went political. I can edit it back out and restore it here if you want, or give you access to P&R if you want. It's not bad in there, not really :)

Is there some auto prune function on P&R?  Near the same time I read the rules and submitted as such, P&R went open access for about 2 weeks.  I read most of the threads.  My access was cut before I found something to participate in.

Actually, if you could take out the hippies, and leave the rest, could you move it back?  I guess there was some good stuff in the post (I missed everything after my last post) and it might be helpful...

For the sissy sallies, I will refrain from mentioning SMURFS in the post.  Sue, I like to take a SMURF out to the SMURF and plug a few SMURFS into a SMURF, but I don't want anyone upset because my idea of a hobby doesn't coincide with theirs.

Plus saint, you know I don't like to throw down in an online argument.

I think that the auto censor should filter out all SMURFS and replace it with the word Smurf!

I wanted some advice on building a hidden SMURF vault.  Someone got their panties in a knot.  I don't mind, a lot of people don't understand SMURFS.

At least I think that's what happened, I don't have access to P&R where someone dumped it.

There isn't any good advice in that thread so far anyway.

I think that inside a custom arcade cabinet would be pretty clever...

The Canadians got silver but were upset when the Americans won. 

I don't watch it but found it amusing since there are always reports of crooked judges at the Olympics.   :dizzy:
Title: Re: ?
Post by: pbj on February 19, 2014, 12:21:31 pm
What always cracks me up about the Olympics is that sizable chunk of the athletes are random middle aged rich people that paid a small country off in order to get a passport and compete.  And what makes it worse is that they don't even get last place.  I know we're supposed to respect elite athletes for whatever reason but give me a break.

Title: Re: ?

Far too much politics around the Olympics to take completely seriously. Winter Olympics are turning into the X games, at least from what they air in the US.

Heh, yeah, pretty sure there hasn't been any crooked judging in favor of Americans this time around.

They said that the Americans and Russians made a deal where if the americans won girlie skating here, they would make sure the ruskies would win at the next olympics.  So everyone (well not everyone) was up in arms about it, yet from what I heard, the americans and russian dancy-skaters were really just better than the canucks. 

Plus, well it's figure skating or whatever.  Almost as important as the judge-fixing going on in synchronised swimming :snicker:

I have always wondered why figure skating is an Olympic sport but Pro Wrestling is not.  Seems like the same thing.

The only thing that bores me more than the winter olympics is the summer olympics. Total wastes of time, money, effort all around, and I really don't get what you achieve if you win gold... a wheaties box showing?  (do they even make wheaties any more?)

In other news, mary lou retton now does ads for adult diapers.   Guess the balance beam was pretty hard on the bladder bone afterall.

They do get to make a nice living coaching their sport for the next wave of Olympians plus the kids of wealthy people.

If you're American, trying moving to the USVI and get on one of their teams.  Went to high school with plenty of people on the 1996 "olympic sailing team" and none of them went on to lucrative coaching careers.
