Ninjas, because you can't hear them sneaking up on you. --Boner

Well, I feel sheepish, I should've researched before I opened my big mouth.... What's the general feeling in Holland about these wars, anyway. Is average Joe Dutchman in favor or against them for the most part?

This shouldn't really be news to anyone. I remember this being discussed back in 2001, just after the terror attacks, when I was in D.C. with a bunch of other high school students attending some sort of "student leadership conference" (which was total application-padding bullshit). We had a...

So, King, are you saying that the Dutch would have unilaterally bombed and invaded Iraq and Afghanistan? --Boner

Gee, $87,000,000,000 could sure buy a lot of tacos. Or bombs. I'm thinking Bush and his cronies are going to spend it on the latter, because bombs are fun. I think this time, though, we should use them on somebody other than the Iraqis...like the Canadians or the Spanish; some country that...

Well, Millard Fillmore, for one. I don't think they've ever made any Calvin Coolidge jokes, either. --Boner

Well, it would help if you specified that "certain part", for one, since as far as I knew the fall of the Roman Empire was responsible for the Dark Ages. Define your terms, Craprunner: whose "affluency" are you referring to? What do you mean by "social progress"? --Trom the Baron von Boner

Craprunner, don't even try to blame homophobia on Islam, because that argument wouldn't last 15 seconds in this forum. Just wait til that KSM dude from Cairo gets a hold of you... Be afraid. Be very afraid. --Trom the Baron von Boner

King, as brilliant and gifted an orator as Bush Jr. is, keep in mind that he never writes any of his own speeches...his staffers won't let him. That's quite sensible, actually, since if he were allowed to write his own speeches, he'd probably look like even more of an idiot, what with his cute...

LoOzrat, the fine film you are referring to is "Happy Campers", featuring Brad Renfro, who also appeared in the terrible film "Deuces Wild". Now I do believe props are in order...? --'Boner

Dude, King, I seriously have GOT to know what you have been smoking, because only someone who regularly tokes up big assed bowls of serious brain-toasting weed could concoct nonsensical streams of consciousness such as the ones you post. Nothing personal, King, just your posts always give...

Lissen, If a dude is in love with another dude, and they want to get married all official-like so they can enjoy all the legal benefits of being married (i.e. income and property tax deals, survivor benefits, health insurance coverage, and so on) then more power to 'em, I say. Or somesuch...

Sorry, friend, but Craig Kilborn owns Jon Stewart...Craig Kilborn is Jon Stewart's daddy. I mean, come on, 5 questions? He's the best interviewer ever! Craig Kilborn is a late-night genius. You know that I'm right, so don't bother arguing. You'd just be wasting your time...time that would be...

Lissen, I know you're the self-appointed King of Hardcore and all, and I'm basking in your endless glory, but I have to disagree on all points. I'm not saying you're totally wrong, necessarily, but here are my personal faves: Rythym: Dave Mustaine Lead: Paul Gilbert Bass: Billy Sheehan...

Two words: Too short. --The 'Boner

My name is Tromboner because that's what I am. It's an old nickname from grade school band class. When I got my first AIM account I punched in "Tromboner666" but, sadly, it was taken, so I figured I'd try a little reverse action (999) and that's how it's been ever since. Yeah. My avatar is...

I'd like to see the game's setting move down south to Mexico or Central America. Those areas might not have been so badly damaged by the nuclear holocaust, and who knows, SOMETHING might have survived by hiding in some old Mayan pyramids....? Just a thought. -- The 'Boner

An American astronaut was boasting to his Polish counterpart how easy it will be for America to land a man on Mars. "That's nothing!" says the Pole, "We're going to land a man on the sun!" "Don't be moron." says the American. "He'll be toast before he even gets near it!." The Pole replies...
