Billy Mays 5

Yah, I'm devastated. A week before he died, I ordered some OxyJizz. The "operator standing by" supersized me and I missed the "But, Wait! There's more!" part of the infomercial and was clueless when I got home and found, not one, but two orange, 55 gallon drums with giant skulls and crossbones on them blocking my garage door. Now he's dead and no one is answering the phones. And damn if those informercials were taped and it was Billy answering the phones (heard he was inhaling that nitrous oxide stuff to disguise his voice.

DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY. OR ANY BANK!

Are you guys who are giving me all these inappropriate votes actually stupid enough to think that you're insulting me?

numbah16tdhaha commented 152 days ago.
they must think so

zuchinibut commented 152 days ago.
Inappropriate votes? Is that you LadyJesusFan?

LadyJesusFan777 commented 152 days ago.
No, I did not, and please don't make the implication. There's a lot of finger pointing going on around here at this time, and I think that it should stop. I did not give any disagree on this particular comment.

Ridgewalker commented 152 days ago.
I'm pretty sure that I know who they are. At least I can say that I what I said, I said right to their faces. I don't feel good about leaving my terds all over the place. You make your own Karma, you know...

Ridgewalker commented 152 days ago.
LJF, I'd really be disappointed to find out that you have left your turds on anyone elses reviews.

magellan commented 152 days ago.
I'll own up to my "funny." I actually thought this was funny. And no, LJF did not leave a disagree here.

Why is everyone so bent about disagree votes recently? This reminds me of when MPR got mad at me when I disagreed that white meat was the best part of the chicken.

For the record, I honestly think dark meat is better (no offense MPR).

numbah16tdhaha commented 152 days ago.
I gave a funny over the answering the phone on nitrous thing, if we're claiming votes.

numbah16tdhaha commented 152 days ago.
Oh yeah, mag, I'll kick your ass if you don't stop disparaging white meat!

magellan commented 152 days ago.
Not to get all up into MPR again, but I just think that dark meat has a bit more flavor.

numbah16tdhaha commented 152 days ago.
*throws a handful of Oxy Clean in magellan's eyes* That's it! Its war, boss...

Ridgewalker commented 152 days ago.
Aside from the fact that I just got 6 months worth of 'em in less than 5 minutes, you know how I feel about voting abuse. It's childish, cowardly and, obviously, has created bad vibes on the site. The stop sign, here, is that if you make it a technical requirement to back-up a "disagree" vote, you have to do it with all the "Agrees" and 'Funnies" because they are all abused. I'm pretty sure that I know who did it as a "punishment" for stuffing them earlier, rather than confronting me, directly, in the appropriate thread. But, I'm fighting for my life...literally...and I can't let myself get upset...not even a little. I've been around just long enough to know how karma works...

Shit...of course this was meant to get a chuckle...hopefully.

numbah16tdhaha commented 152 days ago.
Don't worry man, I'm gonna rub Oxy Clean in everyone's eyes until the madness is over...

magellan commented 152 days ago.
Ahhh.... you just got disagree stuffed. Got it. Disagrees should be worn as a badge of pride - a sign that people care. It's certainly better than an "apathetic" or "meh" vote.

On a more mundane note, I wonder if people would pay for the ability to see who voted what on their review? Just to throw a number out there, who would pay something reasonable like $79 per month? I bet Billy Mays could sell this.

Ridgewalker commented 152 days ago.
If you can find Monica...do it fast. I have 110 gallons of Jizz and nothing to do with it...

Ridgewalker commented 152 days ago.
I'll donate my 2, 55 gallons of OxyJizz for the first caller...unless numbah can get Monica here, first...

numbah16tdhaha commented 152 days ago.
I just got a call from the Sham-Wow guy. He'd like to sell your new service, mag.

LadyJesusFan777 commented 152 days ago.
I do agree with you Ridge when you talk about the abuse of the disagrees, funnies, and so on.

I'm sure sorry to hear that you're ill. You're in my thoughts.

fitman commented 152 days ago.
For the record, I thoroughly enjoy recieving disagree and funny votes as well as helpful and agree. so please keep 'em coming!


fitman commented 152 days ago.
PS

Get well!

fitman commented 152 days ago.
PPS

I wouldn't pay 79 cents.

Ridgewalker commented 152 days ago.
We all know that you do but Monopoly money is more valuable, fit. What do you do...put them on your résumé? Impress your girlfriends? What? Bogus votes are meaningless. What's one man's garbage...

Ridgewalker commented 152 days ago.
Thanks guys. Have a tough road ahead of me here. Hoping it's not too long...the tough part, that is...

fitman commented 152 days ago.
Geez, Ridge...

They don't have to be worth anything to be entertaining.

I just like knowing that somebody cares.

zuchinibut commented 152 days ago.
LJF...I was not implying that you gave a disagree, but making a comment about how Ridge's comment seemed similar to yours about the disagrees.
I continue to be amazed by the sensitivity of receiving a disagree.

I don't either, especially when it creates a dialogue. But, when they are left on a humorous review and are clearly not meant to address the review, or on a deeply personal review, to me it's like a nice time being interrupted by rats scurrying across your space and dropping their little raisins on your carpet as they duck out.
Granted, it doesn't happen to me too often, but I feel the same way when it happens to other people. (Except for fit, 'cause he seems to bathe in any kind of attention, or magellan, who thinks everyone should feel honored by it. Fuck that...)

Thanks for explaining, zuchini, but I must say that I haven't complained about disagrees or funnies for a long time. The times that I did was because at one time, no matter what I said, it was marked funny or disagree, even when they were of such serious nature. One thing in particular was my mother's death, and it was marked funny and there was nothing funny about it. I later had someone PM me and tell me they had been trolling all along, and even apologized. All was forgiven. But this person recognized what they were doing, and was willing to clear the air. It takes a mighty big person to be able to do that.

fitman commented 152 days ago.
To those who take seriously a malicious disagree or an inapropriate funny, I suggest taking the advice given to me by my mother over half a century ago:

"Consider the source."

Ridgewalker commented 152 days ago.
Only the source knows the source...'ceptin' the administration, so I just let it blow into the karmic winds. Truth be told, I don't wanna know. Once, someone raised their hand and admitted it. However, when the Evil Widget came into play, way back when, several of the site's trolls were exposed and I was shocked to find out that they were highly respected regulars. I can live without knowing, but it sure is fun trying to bait them into the open...

fitman commented 152 days ago.
OK, but I didn't mean to imply one need know the identity of the source to be aware of the fact that inapropriate votes are irrelevant.
