Afghanistan: NY TIMES

CB.. ahh, it's time for 'the talk'.

I know you've been busy with school and I'm very happy that you've still made time with us and are joining in with some of political discussions on the board. While I'm not one of the politcal posters I can offer you some suggestions.

1. Don't cut and paste entire articles to the board without at least some commentary by yourself. (aka avoid Toddism)
2. The longer the material you cut and paste the more commentary you need to write.
3. Whatever your comment be prepaired to have someone try to bite you a new one. Esp. lavender and Mischka, they file their teeth you know, I've seen them do it.
Just some hints.. Take them with a grain of salt. After all you never see me trying to start one of those blood ba- I mean debates.
 
I think she's providing the article not as an erzatz soapbox (like Todd or WD) but as a newsreel service. This is brand new news, and she's just keeping us up to date.

Or is this a tree-hugger thing? Ya know -- "Hey! Stop that loud bombing! Can't we all just talk and stuff?"
 
Here's what the NY Times will print on a couple of years if we DON'T continue our campaign:

ISLAMIC EXTREMISTS USE NUCLEAR WEAPON FOUND LAYING AROUND ABANDONED RUSSIAN TRACTOR FACTORY - BYE, BYE PHILADELPHIA

Philadelphia, the land of the Liberty Bell, Independence Hall, and many other stirring American landmarks and historical sites, was utterly demolished today when a nuclear device was set off by an Islamic Extremist named Abul Killemall who, apparently was insulted because the film about Muhammed Ali got bad reviews. "Muhammed good!" he was heard to shout to CNN cameras before pushing the little red button on his Radio Shack remote control.

A lot more than 3 children were killed.

"Nev, I'm not arguing over whether or not we should be bombing AFg anymore. It's a waste of time and energy. I hadn't heard anyone say a word about that so I posted it as DCL said, sort of a newsreel. Sorry. I honestly don't have an opinion on it."


Stop hitting me! You're liberal and I'm gay, you're not allowed to rip me a new one!
*runs from these vicious political posters to a thread were women post pictures of their ta-tas*

Hmmmmmm ta-tas. *Drools, Homer like*

"LOL

I have a pic for you..I need to edit it though, I think you may like it.:) "


*i-n-c-h-e-s back in* This is a trick, isn't it? You're luring me in with the promise of a picture and then you're going to show me how everything I think is wrong whether I think it or not.
 
Never

When did you win the election to become the Cut and Paste Sheriff?

BFD
 
What's the point in cut and pasting complete articles?

Just register with the NY Times and you can read it at source...

And CelestialBody you must have at least a little comment after going to all that effort...
