Hilltopper Appreciation Thread
« on: February 21, 2019, 10:53:38 PM »
Thanks for keeping the servers going (from all of our $$$$ that we pay annually to post here) and for being the sheriff in town. Most of us here are insufferable twats one way or another, and the slow week has definitely emphasized that fact.

Thanks for doing a fine job.

Assume what I say should be in teal if it doesn't pass the smell test for you.

I just had to explain to Rocky that I didn't really know what the whole thing was really all about.

Wow, I'm very concerned for Benny.  Being able to mimic Myron Medcalf's writing so closely implies an oncoming case of dementia.

I'd previously given PGHeros a one day ban for each of the 45 posts I had to clean up. 

I've changed that to 45 hours because the roast beef guy put in his notice and someone has to run the slicer this weekend.

If it weren't for you, we would all be at the mercy of Dodds or Ganzer.     
Luke 6:45   ...A good man produces goodness from the good in his heart; an evil man produces evil out of his store of evil.   Each man speaks from his heart's abundance...

It is better to be fearless and cheerful than cheerless and fearful.

As a very sufferable twat, I am incredibly insulted.

I also am impressed that while we can't say kitten here, we can say twat.

That is totally interesting.  I had to go to urban dictionary to double check the meaning of the t-word which .. was exactly what I thought it was, which is super confusing because it's not a word that evokes the nuclear reaction the other infamous body part word would.

I can't tell if we should start using the t-word more, or start a viral movement to have it transitioned to the awful word category.

Twat! Twat! Twat!

Thought I'd better get it in just in case you go with option #2.

For a moderator to choose the second option, he would have to be quite a ... well ... you know.

What we (mostly topper) has been dealing with is a abundance of bad behavior.

1) insultingly / disrespecting other members.  You don't have to like, or even respect them, but in that case you need to start ignoring them.

2) political crap.

Cut those two things out (everyone responsible), or we'll turn this god-damned twat filled car around!

"I hate everything about this job except the games, Everything. I don't even get affected anymore by the winning, by the ratings, those things.

I'll add an item to Rocky's list.  Retribution for those who weren't as faithful as some. 

Indeed, what's puzzling is that we have more slapdickery right now with a top 20 basketball team on a basketball forum than when MU was an NIT team.
