a Day 2 edit ---- it amuses me that some members lack the discipline to post only "one word" and others are wrapped so tight that they can't have fun.

LOL,
A little thought. That's three words and more to follow.
When I joined my first Internet chat board. I quickly noticed who the best, most knowledgeable members were. Then I shared one of my tests with everyone. Unfortunately popularity skews the results but this still works:
I divided the number of "likes" a member has by the number of their posts and got a percentage. Unfortunately, I got involved in the games as this and it took me two years to get over a 50% ratio.
The same thing can be done here. Divide the points by the number of posts. We have some very special members here that make this place the best.
Now that I don't care as much, I'm going to play.
I was going to post "Grits." Now my word is "useless."

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

Internet: Douglas Harper's Etymology Dictionary. "stupid person," 1944, from Yiddish shmendrik, from the name of a character in an 1877 operetta ("Shmendrik, oder Di komishe Chaseneh") by Avrom Goldfaden (1840-1908), "Father of Yiddish Theater."
Keets! this thread so reminds me back in the day when you would start single word titled threads like "Why?" or "When?" or "How?" Remember those! I love your sense of humor as you (or anyone) doesn't take you seriously.
