Posted By: <b>Kenneth A. Cohen</b><p>I love YouTube for the access it gives to all of those old obscure video clips. A special thanks to those you have posted the links. I can't wait to get home to view them. My computer at work isn't equipped to play them.<br /><br />This thread is truly many threads within a thread. A real free-for-all, a food fight, Hatfields vs McCoys, etc. Even an occasional reference to baseball cards, I think. And it reached a new low (this is a good thing) with its plunge into potty humor.<br /><br />BTW Joann, if you want to enter the contest I am sure that the boys could come up with some kind of reasonable handicap system. Sort of like Elaine did for Jerry, Cosmo and George when they bet on who could remain Master of Their Domaine the longest.

Maybe those threads weren't dormant when they changed direction, and in that case I can understand the frustration.<br />

Posted By: <b>john/z28jd</b><p> Judson im pretty sure the last dentist in Tuckerton was burned at the stake because his talk of using a toothbrush daily was considered satanic.If what i hear is correct,people in Tuckerton considered losing teeth to be a blessing from god,they would take the teeth and plant them in the ground and in the summer they would have corn,or at least they thought they did. Really it was just the same soft yellow teeth they planted to begin with but it didnt matter because they didnt eat corn anyway so they never knew the difference.<br /><br /> Scott isnt really from Tuckerton,so he hasnt lost all his teeth yet.Once he does,then he can leave his house and not be considered an outsider

Posted By: <b>E, Daniel</b><p>There are many funny stories about me, but very few I find funny though,<br /><br />When I was a little over 2 years old, my mum tells me she noticed I was running around the house saying "**** I'm Late, **** I'm Late" while searching for something or other. Her concern lasted a full 30 minutes as guests were coming that night for dinner, and she began to imagine having stern words with the Nun who ran my pre-school over language in the play yard.<br />And then the light bulb went off, and she realized that I was merely repeating what she in fact mumbled every morning as she got ready to go to work. <br /><br />So kids, blow jobs are in fact proffessional occupations that require satchmo style cheeks and the ability to chew 6 pieces of bubble yum while producing minimum radius bubbles of no less than 6 inches. Did I say 6 inches, I meant 9.....<img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><br /><br />Daniel

I wanna be a feature article....who else do you know has 22 Old Judge cards of the same guy who only has 2 poses?

Posted By: <b>Kyle</b><p>Sometimes its difficult to read some of the threads on here because of the condescending tones (ironic to read a tone, yes... but its possible). Sometimes it feels like a high school popularity contest; who has the most money, who can afford this, who has this in there collection, who only collects the best, etc.<br /><br />As a young enthusiast, it becomes upsetting reading some of the messages on here directly attacking and criticizing other people. Thankfully, I've managed to work out a few deals, while all being minor ones, with several fantastic members of the forum and thats what keeps me coming back to learn. There's nothing better than reading a "Show me your..." thread and seeing all the amazing pictures that are posted. Every week, if not day, I've been able to see something I've never seen before, and thats exciting. Nearly everyday, someone on here has a question, about a set, player, etc. and there is someone on here to help them, that's exciting. <br /><br />I think everyone just needs to accept that there are different collectors on here. Some are here to build a massive collection of low grade HOFs, a collection on only specific players, of only specific teams, of only high grade cards. Some are seeking information on collections that were passed down to them from their father's or grandfather's, not wanting to make a mistake and sell them for less than their value. Some would argue that that it is wrong to do that, but don't forget that some people aren't as fortunate as others on the board. Some people seek help so they are able to maximize the value to put more/better food on the table, clothes on their kids' backs, and maybe even star saving for educations. Some are here to gain information on what is worth investing to create supplemental income. Some use the board to help make extra money to pay off bills, assist with the mortgage, finance a car. <br /><br />Regardless, we're all here for the same purpose, to read, enjoy, share, trade, sell and grow. The fact of the matter is is that without people willing to sell/trade, none of our collections would grow, nor would there be any demand.<br /><br /><br />By the way, I like cheese too. Thanks for the laugh. If'd like another laugh, search youtube for South Park Evolution. Sometimes that show crosses the line, but sometimes it is absolutely hilarious. Here's another one:<br /><br /><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQre61r1QUI" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQre61r1QUI</a><br /><br /><object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/SQre61r1QUI"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/SQre61r1QUI" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object><br /><br /><br />Also, my guess is 400... this thread is going to keep on going until it is masterlocked. Anyone think the Cubs have a chance this year?

Posted By: <b>john/z28jd</b><p> Before while eating lunch at my grandparents i tried to write down all the presidents and all the states in under 10 minutes. The only one I missed was James Buchanan(president).I also spelled Delaware wrong if you must know but that was in haste. Last time i tried to name all the presidents for someone i missed James Garfield. I must have a mental block against famous people named James although i knew who Johnny James was when my grandfather mentioned him the other day.Best hall of famer named James....James O'Rourke(I dare you to say its James Galvin and no one called Jimmie Foxx, James)

Posted By: <b>Joann</b><p>Rethinking my post on this thread out-dysfunctionaling (wow - great new word) the epic NYC dinner thread.<br /><br />I don't think this thread can surpass the NYC dinner thread for absurdity just by number of posts. See, this thread is ad hoc, eclectic, free-for-all, all topics mixed together. That's a whooole lot easier to keep going.<br /><br />The NYC dinner thread was sublime because it managed to go 185 posts, many filled with rancor and debate (like this one), but also stayed pretty much on one topic AND managed to never reach a conclusion. That one was art. It's going to take a whole lot more than number of posts and garden-variety arguing to top that.<br /><br />Joann<br /><br />PS - Leon, I vote for 86ing the homophobic posts, but NOT because of a request from either Colt or Jim that claims the other is setting that tone. Shame on both or either if they ask you to delete it and imply that it's the other one that's being inappropriate.

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>Given the tenor of this thread, an apt episode- when the NYU journalist overhears Jerry and George talk about their supposed homosexuality- Seinfeld always said that that line made the episode- when they come up with it they knew repeating it endlessly would be the show.
