oh
tattooed.
looks vaguely pissed off.
potentially very very stern.
she's everything i've ever wanted.
Paraphrasing Mitch Hedberg, aren't all photos of something in the past?
shareyou missed the point
shareIt's just a joke about saying a photo is of something past.
Hedberg's original joke was about saying you were younger in a photo, but same idea.
you still missed the point.
shareIt seems you missed the point.
sharewhich is?
shareHownos: "past photos"
Haslet: "aren't all photos of something in the past?"
Clear as day.
he can start his own thread if he wants to discuss photos.
shareWah??? He didn't want to discuss photos. He commented on your thread title.
shareYeah. It's just an old Mitch Hedberg joke I liked. His comment brought it to mind.
shareIt was a funny joke. But, the OPs ultra-serious reaction to multiple posters re: "from the past photos" is even funnier.
One entertaining exception to photos in the past:
Twilight Zone (of course):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vz7C7DY4qTE
it is possible to post future photos?
shareOnly if you're in the Twilight Zone. Never venture there.
shareBut time travel is relative, the photo would be from a past future delivered to the present.
shareI don't believe the characters were able to alter the events in the photos into the past future which is the whole problem. The photos became their future future.
I would've snapped a photo of the OTB section in a newspaper. (I assume there was no lottery in those days.)
Hownos!!!! 😱
I’m surprised that you of all people would so flagrantly disregard the forum rules.
Poo litics 💩
this post has nothing to do with politics. does anyone here have a sense of humor?
shareTo be fair, he does have a point.
shareno he doesn't. he didn't read what the thread was about.
shareI understand what you’re saying, but if we start allowing posts that allude to Politics (and I completely get that you weren’t), then it’s the thin end of the wedge and before we know it GD will morph into Politics 2.0, which nobody wants.
shareit's a human interest story. she happens to have been a politician. she could have been a teacher or a doctor. this no politics thing is becoming an obsession with some.
shareI’m just fearful of the floodgates opening and it becoming a cess pool that drives all the nicer posters away.
sharethey probably should have the ability to tell what is and isn't political.
shareI’ve often wanted to post threads about people that happen to be politicians, but have always resisted because it would make me appear hypocritical (I really have little faith in politicians - full stop). Unfortunately, no matter how innocent your intentions are, somebody somewhere will pick you up on it.
shareno one is discussing policy or ideology in this thread. you are looking for something that is not there and was never intended.
shareNot at all, I completely understood the nature of your post, however, there are many others that can’t differentiate between Politics and a non-political thread that just happens to be about a politician.
sharethis was meant to be a fun thread. you don't seem to get it. if a person can't tell the difference between this thread and an outright political thread then they are probably not worth having around.
shareWow, now you’re starting on me Andy! What a weird day. I can certainly differentiate between the two, but once again, I was guilty of only skim reading the title and not bothering to click on the link. Jeez Louise! I wish I’d never said anything!!
shareAbsolutely not singling you out at all, merely expressing my fear that once the politics door gets opened an inch in GD, we’ll be overrun (in fact if you read my initial missive regarding your post it said, “To be fair, he does have a point.” Therefore, I was supporting your stance).
share“ no he doesn't. he didn't read what the thread was about.”
Well I think I was pretty honest about that. Hey look, I really don’t want to start a “thing” about this. My first comment to you was intended to raise a smile more than your hackles, hownos. Sorry that it pissed you off but it really wasn’t my intention.
Go for gold, post whatever you want. I’ll maybe stay out of your way if you’re not the kind of guy who can take a bit of good natured ribbing that I thought you were.
Again, my apologies.
i accepted your explanation last night and moved on. i am not the one beating a dead horse.
shareHe’s really letting loose these days, isn’t he?!
shareI think I’m in love.
shareWatching the news clip no one had a Nova Scotian accent (to my ears).
shareShe's pretty sexy, although I prefer a little more bust. And by "a little more," I mean a lot.
shareHaving to explain what you really mean here is hardly communicating "it concisely."
shareYeah, you're right. Sometimes, instead of being vulgarly blatant and just saying "I prefer huge tits!" I will use an extra ten syllables, or three seconds worth of speech to communicate something a little more tastefully.
You got me, tiger. Kudos!
Yup, I did. Thanks for a classic example of doublespeak in tonight's forum.

Three cheers for you! The internet bows to your glory.
shareIt's a full moon in Aquarius tonight, which is all about authenticity, and it's where you fucked up, lol !
shareLOL, I have no idea what you're talking about, what my "doublespeak" was to begin with, why you think I have an authenticity problem, or why you apparently believe in Astrology, which is hilarious nonsense for 13 year old girls to think about, but for the record, I am actually an Aquarius!
Does that mean anything? Teach me, Obi-Won!
You conceded that I was right and now you're desperately trying to backpedal. You scoff and try to ridicule my tongue-in-cheek reference to astrology and then proudly declare yourself to be an Aquarius. That's blatant doublespeak! (eye-roll)
shareCool, so you have no answers, no reply, no followup to anything you said before, and no stated reason for even starting this in the first place. But the fact that I laughed you off initially by sarcastically "conceding" is what matters.
I've been following up plenty. You continue to obfuscate.
shareOK. Suck a boner, dummy.
shareUnsurprising. This is what you desperately respond with, you closeted homophobe?
shareInteresting question for someone who goes around calling other people “pansies”, wouldn’t you agree?
shareJust one other person, you. You're still smarting so much from that simple jab, you just had to come crawling out of the woodwork and advise him to do something you're clearly unable to, that is, pay me no mind. Thanks for reinforcing my point, hypocrite.
Hmmm that’s an interesting take but in reality I was just letting a perfectly nice poster who got slammed by you in one of your usual tirades know not to worry about it because you’re just a notoriously disgruntled fuck knuckle who is clearly upset that no one here likes him. But your theory is good too 😘
shareIn reality, I just pointed out an inconsistency on his part and you saw it as an opportunity to express your personal resentment and bitterness. Your allegations, which are outlandish lies, btw, look suspiciously like those of another adversary here. Unable to come up with anything original?
shareAdversary! Lol, for fucks sake man, what do you think this is, battle of the fucking planets?! I have no idea what or who you’re referring to, but if someone else has mentioned your appalling attitude, well I must say I’m hardly shocked. Maybe it’s not everyone else who has the problem. In any case I’ll let you get back to jumping down people’s throats for no good reason. It seems to be a time consuming job for you. Ciao bella xx
shareCongrats nitro, you’ve been “db’d”!
It’s a right of passage here to be randomly condescended to by our resident weirdo who hates everyone and will attack you out of the blue for any innocuous comment you make.
This makes you one of us 🤗
Okie doke. Well thank you, Sig.
I like this place, and I'd very much like to be "one of us."
I like your posts and for the record I chuckled at your original comment. Pay no mind to db, he seriously does attack people constantly for nothing. He seems like a very unhappy individual. I really don’t know why he continues to post here if everyone angers him so much.
Anyway, thanks for the laugh!
Only a scandal if her armpit wasn't shaved.
