It's because we're old.

And filled with hate.

I love your hate, because it's so! Old!

Not one but two exclamations in that line (!).

[The MunchKING]

Well, let's see. First the earth cooled. And then the dinosaurs came, but they got too big and fat, so they all died and they turned into oil. And then the Arabs came and they bought Mercedes Benzes. And Prince Charles started wearing all of Lady Di's clothes. I couldn't believe it.

Now you've got me picturing Prince Charles in the Wonder Woman outfit...

I don't think he'd fill it out.

Jorts went out about 4-5 years ago. Below the knee jorts went out 3-4 years ago. At this point we're all wearing cargo shorts in either black, gray or khaki. And then there are those atrocious plaid long golf short things that all of the Abercrombies are wearing. We hateses them...filthy stinking Abercrombieses.

Jeans are tougher than Khakis or Duck Heads.

Who knows. I give zero ****s about what's fashionable, I wear what I like.

This is where I regale you about the benefits of Plate Mail, isn't it?

My reading tonight is this:



With Neil Young's Harvest or Revocation through headphones.

Notice the only guy smart enough to wear a helmet with that tuxedo is also the only one to bring a gun, and brave enough to use it.

Why don't I wear pants? Easy access!

Dang it where's sharkerbob when you need him?

'Cause I'm a wrathchild, well, I'm a wrathchild
Yeah, I'm a wrathchild, coming to get you, yeah, yeah!!!!

I prefer that great Salsa hit, Son of a Beach.

I never understand how women do it, their clothes so tight. That'd have me twitching like I had a rash.

I'd tear right through them if I was wearing them.

I'm not doing anyone, actually. OH! How? How embarrassing.

And Freudian.

Really (not the "for men" part)? I was under the impression they were designed to keep you from getting all the **** and mud in the streets off your feet. I've been wrong before, though.

If you anted that you would go for general elveators, and no just high heels.

Nah that's what stilts are for.

I thought they were for clowns and bad Spider-man villains.

Oh, it's probably not. I just have a head full of urban myths, due to being so old we didn't have any way to check them back in the day.

A lot of stuff I learned early in life turned out to be bullshit.

According to Cracked, Everyone in Christopher Columbus's time knew the Earth was round. the reason noone wanted to fund him was they knew he'd drastically underestimated how big the world was and how long it would take to get to india by sailing west.

I have seen others post videos recently so it should be possible for you.

And, hello!

I could only post links

The imbed video option was removed from the Community Forum but you can still post vids in other forums.

Whhhhhyyyyy?!

I'm guessing because that's where most of the people that would want to link them are, and thus it saves bandwidth.

bipolar danger girl is doing it wrong!:

It's because we're old.

And filled with hate.

Hate is no fun! I prefer being full of piss and vinegar!

[Paradox]

Kees_L can try!:

I've been feeling tempted to enter the contest but without ever actually changing my avatar. Like even the same avatar could represent any weekly theme if I wanted to enough.

But then I basically thought let's just not.

You can, though! It's been done lots of times. I remember the year jessecuster3 had a White Sox avatar he entered every week.

[Paradox]

Geez, Munch, you're not even up to this week yet?

Hurry it up and get it over with! Then you'll be slowed down to only posting as much as everyone else.

[Hod]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!

Woo! I want a princess awesome barbie!

I've already said it elsewhere, but Happy Birthday Princess.

May you get everything you wish for today.







May you get everything you wish for that is legal today. I see that look in your eyes. Don't think I don't.

[Pharozonk]

Happy birthday BDG!

Hate is no fun! I prefer being full of piss and vinegar!

yeah, but you smell bad.

It looks like some posters are using this board in a mad effort to drive up their post count. Well, I guess that's fair, if you've got nothing better to do. What chafes my butt is the few who can travel back in time and join this new message board decades before it came into existence. That seems kind of high handed--and making a distintion between "us" and "them" that won't foster a sense of shared community. Props to those with this time travel power (moderators?) who have chosen not to use it and can live with joining in April 2014 like the rest of us. Or maybe our new society now has four classes of citizens: Time Lords who travel through time; Time Lords who choose not to travel through time; high post counters; low post counters. So much for social cohesion.

As a YvtW er I cannot travel though time...

But I can be a high post-counter!!

Or they just like to chat and their job is computer laden and instead of just doing sales reports, inventory and data entry for 8 to 16 hours at a lonely terminal, they break up the monotony by chatting. I can only speak for myself in so much doing that sort of thing.

Don't let your boss catch you.

"And then all of CBR stood and applauded Michael P. for hitting the nail on the head."

*does so*

'Well, it's just after eight o'clock, and time for the penguin on top of your television set to explode'

It only does that if you throw it.

My real name is Mario Luigi. You could understand my issues...

I thought it was the other way around?

If you consider doing God's work the absolute opposite of God's work, then yes, I'm quite inspirational.

The Lord works in mysterious ways.

I will not share which poster, but someone was kind enough to be concerned about me getting banned for plotting murder. So adorable.

Really? If they start banning for THAT a lot of Rumblers are going to be in trouble.

And batter her chicken.

CHICKEN! Oh I TOTALLY misread that for a second there. Never mind carry on.

You're not Rush, either.

Although you may not even know who that is.

Robot dog from Megaman of course!

I cannot possibly believe that this hasn't been posted before, but it needs to be.

Yes, its a Squirrel riding a unicorn.

Ride it, Ride hard!!

And dang... that's a big squirrel.

I have a job interview tomorrow for a job I have no chance in getting, so I can only be distracted for as long as it takes to eat my dinner.

CBR... GO!

You need positivity!! Go!! GET THAT JOB!! You can totally do it!!

My point is always to annoy you.

Did you just meet me???

That explains so much...

[bipolar danger girl]

MY KING HAS RETURNED!! *twirl* WOO! Best birthday present ever, mods!!

I have to run some errands, but will be back later to annoy every earlobing one of you.

[bipolar danger girl]

Maybe even with alcohol.

[Dizzy D]

Important things first:

Happy birthday, BPDG/Awesome Rita!

Hawkeye
Daredevil
Amazing/Superior/Amazing Spider-Man
All-New and Uncanny X-Men
Thor: God Of Thunder
Some Avengers stuff here and there, although I'm not following any title(s) regularly right now
Miracleman (not really a Marvel comic, but they're publishing the reprints, so...)

I'm also really digging Saga, Atomic Robo, Sweet Tooth, Manhattan Projects, among others.



I still much prefer print, but a tablet is better than nothing. Although I can only read a couple of comics at a time on my iPad before I have to stop. My old eyes can't cope with the slightly reduced text size for too long.

Have you tried Superior Foes of Spider-Man yet? Seems to fit right in with that list.

I love your hate, because it's so! Old!

Not one but two exclamations in that line (!).

It was nice knowing you, Kees. Be careful with any packages that contain cookies the next couple of days.

Notice the only guy smart enough to wear a helmet with that tuxedo is also the only one to bring a gun, and brave enough to use it.

Seeing the size of that skeleton, I doubt it'd do much good.

And in other news, due to a Marvel Superheroes action from our local supermarket, I know have this guy on my desk:
Attachment 2091

Weird set of characters though. There are 18 characters. 3 of those are Iron man variants, 2 are Spider-Man variants (OK, fair enough, those are the big Marvel heroes these days.) Further we have Fury, Captain America, Hawkeye, Black Widow, Thor and Hulk (yes, obviously. There was that Avengers movie that a couple of people saw.) and then we get Wasp, Black Cat, Nova, Daredevil (well, I believe they were in the cartoons. Though this is the Richard Rider version of Nova.) and for the last couple of spots American Dream, Spider-Girl (not a version I recognize) and White Tiger.

[The MunchKING]

Geez, Munch, you're not even up to this week yet?

Hurry it up and get it over with! Then you'll be slowed down to only posting as much as everyone else.

Well I try, but to make this the HIGH-QUALITY posting you guys deserve take a bit of looking up links and pics.

If I sacrifice Quality, I might as well be a spambot.

[Hod]

Maybe even with alcohol.

Oh **** .

[Kees_L]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!

Woo! I want a princess awesome barbie!

Happy Birthday Beepy Lady Awemuch,

I shower you from the licquorice rain bow log I wield. May everything bow at thy beckoning bidding or vis-à-verse-so, whichever you prefer. Proud a day.
