I don’t touch any of that horrid stuff either, including nasty wicked tricksy coffee.

I drink unsweetened iced tea.

I’m calling Bull on that one. Red Bull.

Monster!

If he wants to, but he never gave a definitive date to resume playing.

Your mom gave everyone a definitive date.

Ooh! Checkmate!

If he wants to, but he never gave a definitive date to resume playing.

You know, like when you’re at a bar, and the bartender asks, “What’s your poison?” In other words, is that what you’re drinking and reporting on in the Sober Thread?

She probably just wants to Enjoy the Silence.

Is that your poison or your feeling towards me because of my choice of breakfast?

SilverWook’s an idea?

Seems like there used to be a thread inquiring about missing persons, but I can’t find it. I am a bit worried about Bingowings, knowing what difficulty he was going through, and now it’s been a while since he last logged in. Hope he’s okay.

D!-A!-R!-T!-H!-_!-E!-N!-D!-E!-R! DARTH_ENDER!!!

Well, it’s another crazy Tuesday morning. Time to start it off right with a full 16.9 oz bottle of Dasani and a morning pastry!

WRONG THREAD!!!11!!1

Oh, but you’re idea is so brilliant! Surely, a new trilogy can come with a new gag!

Sometimes I just want to get away from it all.

He [Boba Fett] could always fiddle with the settings on his helmet and the classic Fett voice comes out. 😉

So he first speaks with the Morrison voice, then some static and throat clearing and the line is repeated with classic Fett voice, which he uses for the rest of the movie.

After reviewing the last few pages, I gather facts about guns don’t matter, effectiveness of policies are either beyond our comprehension or don’t matter, and Frink’s mom is one happening lady.

Also, I like Collipso’s new avatar.

Since banning guns entirely will never be likely, I’m interested in more feasible solutions. For instance, the rubber bullets idea is actually a fairly reasonable solution: it may not be 100% effective, but I guarantee 17 people wouldn’t have died on Valentine’s Day if the perpetrator only had access to rubber bullets. The same enjoyable aspects of guns would remain, while the lethal aspect would be drastically reduced.

Like I said earlier, all guns should be registered with something like a title following every transaction. Definitely in order to own, but even better would be limiting the ability to shoot without training and a license renewed every three or five years. No training without a permit certified by a particular licensing agency. No gun purchases to anyone under 21. No training for anyone under 16. I mean, guns and cars are both potentially quite lethal–the two are quite comparable, only fewer people shoot than drive. A police officer should be allowed to see a man with a gun and ask him to produce his license to own.

She just likes to make people feel better about themselves.

I thought we were having a pretty fun time.

Can I score with your mom, though?

Her standards are low, but not that low.

That’s not what she said when it was just her, your dad, me, five of your other relatives, and our ukuleles last night.

Can I score with your mom, though?

If an automatic rifle fires bullets that are capable of killing, how would you remove the power to kill from them exactly?

Just curious what you meant.

Why do the bullets need to have the power to kill is my question.

Like, rubber bullets?

Listen, I’m not a gun person so I’m not incredibly knowledgeable on the topic to the point where I can provide a good

This is exactly why I feel we pro-gun control people need to learn more about these things.

Um okay then? Are you telling me there is a reason why guns at shooting ranges need lethal power? If so, I’d love to hear it.

no that is not what I was saying.

Then, respectfully, what the hell were you saying?

merely that we pro-gun control people need to better understand guns and gun terminology. At the very least, doing so would make us more effective in debate against the other side. You yourself admitted to not being incredibly knowledgeable on the topic to the point where you can provide a good solution. Therefore, get more knowledgeable.

I agree, it helps to argue for a cause when you understand the opposing point of view better. Well said, Warbler.

That leaves plenty of options for other ensembles, however: a bisexual ukulele octet, for instance.

I just like to get the facts and terminology correct.

Noted.

I don’t care however.

Or maybe it was because you just flat out dismissed me and/or yhwx as being “wrong” so I was correct in deciding the discussion wasn’t worth the effort as I had previous said?

LOL Coming from literally one of the most dismissive posters on OT.com…
