pos system? I nominate you for head pos of the week!
RE: Your Thoughts for Our Troops - Riotgear - 04-17-2012
Pos/Neg/Karma whatever you want to call it. Y'all need a system. MyBB doesn't offer it?

We used to have a "like" button for posts but that bitch Duchess took away our toy.
I haven't liked her since.

Seconded. RG for the POS of the week award!
You're a good person, user, and it's a good cause. These soldiers deserve our support abroad and at home.
P.s. And, you're right about the bastard trolls too. They're showing us their softer sides on occasion, working a long term plan. You just know in like 10 years they will have figured out a way to totally pwn us for a minute. Never let the guard down.
j/k...
RE: Your Thoughts for Our Troops - Riotgear - 04-17-2012
Damn. She's on to us. ABORT ABORT!
Just try to blend in until I can find a way out of here.
RE: Your Thoughts for Our Troops - Donovan - 04-17-2012
I prefer to accidentally let slip I may in fact be a troll and then let them destroy themselves with paranoia.
SHIT was that the "pm" button or "reply"?
RE: Your Thoughts for Our Troops - Riotgear - 04-17-2012
When you say 'troll', what exactly do you mean by that? I'm not familiar with the term.

I don't think you'll see any destruction around here, unless you imagine it. Haven't noticed much paranoia in the halls of Mock. Lots of running with jokes and previous mock references for laughs or digs, some going back years. Not too many taking any of it seriously, unless it's a serious topic or real personal differences. Neither of which applied in my little troll joke; just jumping off someone else's upthread mock in good fun. Thick-skinned group here.

I can only speak for myself of course, but I'm not in the least bit paranoid.

I'm going to a client meeting in 20. I'm going to get pummeled by a 102 year old woman's son and daughter - both in their 80s. I'm not being paranoid about that - it's a fact. Angry senior citizens can be dangerous; I'm a little scared.

If Staff Sgt. Travis Mills will come, they will build it.
That’s the message for the Army soldier who lost his arms and legs to an IED in Afghanistan last week from two charities that build custom homes for injured veterans. John Hodge, director of operations for the Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation, said homes built by his group and a foundation run by actor Gary Sinise feature such amenities as geo-thermal heating and cooling systems, iPad-controlled countertops, heated floors to facilitate blood circulation and oversized kitchens and bathrooms.
"Essentially, the houses work off of a computer," Hodge said. "It really is the latest in technology and energy efficiency."

Every time you say "client" I imagine you as a smoking hot high-class escort with a calf length fur coat and high heels and nothing underneath. So that kinda makes this post about octogenarians...extra gross. Don't ever do that again.

Dick knows, but he won't tell you... because he's a dick.

Hahaha. Client is the industry term. Lawyers have clients. Financial advisors have clients. Agents have clients. Why does your imagination go to escort, filthy mind?
Wait, Cracker made a similar joke when I mentioned a "client meeting" a couple of months back; Cracker's sharp and her mind isn't always in the gutter. So, maybe username's right and I come across like a hooker. I'm so ashamed.
Major thread drift here... back on course...

This is really a cool story; there are still a lot of good people in this world.
