Does this remind you of some people on this board? Onion

Good think this little smiley face makes it all good.

Let's add a wink to boot

nam812 · May 28, 2009 12:20PM

All kidding aside, what is the exact dollar amount necessary to make you go away?

No smiley. No wink. I'm very curious as well.

I'll kick in $5.00

The little smiley face makes ok if you are only kidding. I seriously doubt that this is the case here. I don't post very often and even I am tired of your routine.

Eleventy dollars and a '52 Mantle from elomenopea is all that is needed to rid me of this board

Why so defensive? Maybe I posted the article as some sort of mea copa? ("Bill-o-Clown": Your big word book (i.e. dictionary) will not have this Latin phrase...)

Isn't it fun to give bullies a dose of their own medicine!

I am afraid you won't find a dictionary, Latin or otherwise, with that particular phrase.

I think "mea culpa" may be the phrase your trying to show Bill and everyone else how smart you are with. Look it up first, man.

That's not Latin. Try mea culpa

Oh I get it. Mea copa feela.

Dancing onion reminds me of Fuzzdude. A great buyer and seller of vintage cards and a heck of a nice guy to boot.

smet · May 28, 2009 2:56PM

Its OK everyone. Mintacular probably invented Latin. Therefore he can create whatever Latin phrases he likes.

"You're" may be the phrase you're looking for, jackass.

Try to make your next thread interesting.

Stupid is not interesting.

Dumb is not interesting.

random thoughts with no point is not interesting.

I like your new icon. "HEY LOOK AT ME I'M DUMB"

I have eleventy dollars ($11 as stated).

Elomenopea send him a 8X10 of Mantle from the '52 season (original not needed, just a modern print). A card is not stated, so a photo will do.

Mintacular, I think we have a deal. I'll send the photo myself if needed!!!!

For those who have not yet read the onion article in the OT, it spells out perfectly the tactics used on by a few members on this board that I shall now refer to as drum roll please... "The Bully-Dike Gang"--a small, yet powerful force that controls ideas and order in the community.

As I can determine thus far, the "Bully-Dike Gang" ringleader is of course "Bill-o-Clown" (Bill O'Reilly). He is backed up from time to time by Halos Fan Jeff, or Darth Vader (Dick Cheney). There are a few other members that I suspect to be "El Rushbo" (Rush Limbaugh) but need a few more threads to make that call (after all that is quite a damning accusation...)

Lastly, below the leadership structure are several "Turd Blossoms" (Karl Rove) positions that seem to operate on a rotating basis but allow one or more members to step into that role from time to time.

Got to bounce. BTW--if you are ever attacked/smeared wrongly on the board the verb "bullydiked" is a great way to signal to others what you are undergoing

samspop · May 28, 2009 11:03PM

Please note that not all board members from North Carolina are like mintacular.

MBMiller25 (Matt) and I are actually pretty good guys.

thunderdan · May 28, 2009 11:05PM

Has anyone seen "Dumb and Dumber" with Jim Carrey?

Barfvader · May 28, 2009 11:22PM

Darth Vader ????

Who on here is Darth Vader? I'm confused.

I will be. He's my second favorite Star Wars caracter, atleast until the end (I don't like the good guys).

The Emperor is the best.

No way. She was better as the Slave Girl!!

That was HOT

lsutigers1973 · May 29, 2009 1:03AM

That's what I awas talking about. She had on the flowing brown skirt thingy when she and Luke swung across the other thingy and her goodies were showing.

IchiroDeported · May 29, 2009 1:10AM

in general I find the Onion amusing, I however don't see the gang/bull mentality that you do. I do see a group of follks who call out d-bags for what they are. If you have to make threads like this, then you probably qualify for said title of douchebag. I'd wager that I disagree with the opinions, religion and ideology of 60% of the folks on the this message board, i dont see an angry mob coming for me. Let's face it, you got off on the wrong foot and it's only gotten worse, its not going to get better and eventually your going to get banned, especially if you continue down this pat....you should just accept it.

Yankees001 · May 29, 2009 1:19AM

Mintacular can be JarJar Binks. The only person George Lucas ever created that everyone hates.

Any objections??

fattymacs · May 29, 2009 1:20AM

I always liked Boba Fett best, and Lando Calrissien (SP?) was as cool as the other side of the pillow.

All you have to do is buck up the elenventy dollars + 52 Mantle and I'm off like a prom dress. Well actually, there is one more FINAL thread I would post.

It would be called "Trading my Way to every PSA 10 1983 Donruss card'" and this is how it would work. I would do a reverse LMNOP thread and start with the Mantle card (that has been given to me by you all) and trade my way down to owning every current PSA 10 1983 Donruss cards out there.

From there, once I have all those cards, I would somehow piss off "Bill-o-Clown" b/c they would be in my possession, not his. Need to think about my next step...

CDsNuts · May 29, 2009 1:37AM

One quick question: You're an idiot.

Mintacular · May 29, 2009 1:44AM

I think you meant to say "You're an idiot?" (since you said it was a question).

Which means that I may have started to win you over? Yeah, would I be so lucky!

I love how mintacular has to caveat current thread title with "(off topic)."

I'm trying to think of a topic he's started that's been on topic. Can somebody see about taking him out on the town at National? Clearly, he needs to get laid.

Not possible. I currently have 5 PSA 10 pop 1 commons and you can't have them.

I'd like to throw out brooding adolescent Anakin, played by brooding adolescent Hayden Christensen, as another universally disliked figure. Frankly, his acting BLEW GOATS, and from what I understand he is otherwise rather accomplished. I have said this before, I will not allow my Children to watch EP I - III until they are old enough to make the decision for themselves, as I feel it ruined the entire series for me.

God gawd, Jar Jar.....Lucas truly has lost his mind.

Yeah, he wasnt DeNiro or Pachino but I think the character was so awesome it really didn't matter. The transformation to Darth Vader was awesome to watch. One of my favorite scenes from ANY of the 6 movies was in Episode 2 when he was recounting the killing of all of the Tusken raiders and the Imperial March theme played in the background.

She was wearing the same thingy out in the desert(dessert?) when Luke rescued her and they swung from the rope thingy on his light saber thingy and the wind made her skirt thingy fly up and you could see her thingy.
