That was more on a bad cancer, no? Still wouldn't admit it / same result.

A brilliant retort worthy of (obscure 70s reference) Freewheelin' Franklin of the Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers.

Nice job NBC on airing a commercial spoiler moments before the women's backstroke final.

All the people screaming about forum spoilers might not even want to watch TV at all.

Or listen to the news on the radio.

After buying an inflatable sofa and blowing it up with nitrous oxide, "Let's go find some teenyboppers and ball on it".
Norbert the narc broke in and stuck a knife in it looking for their stash.

No joke. I haven't had many surprises tonight. Gymnastics stuff was ruined by NPR earlier, although I forgot what they spoiled, so no harm done.

And calling it "pissy," when someone remarks that they think saying Uran was bought ("I am 100% sure he was bought" isn't a tongue-in-cheek comment) is a nasty thing to say about him, is a pretty stupid way to respond to said "pissiness," wouldn't you say? "Hugely," even.

You fools take things so seriously.

fly:yes/land:no

the 100% comment came after your comment. and no, i don't think it is stupid to call someone out for getting pissy due to two comments made in jest. but i can see that you are determined to either sit in judgement or be the victim, so have at it.

So the person who sat in judgement plays the victim and calls out the guy for sitting in judgement who sat in judgement of the guy who made the comment about sitting in judgement and being a victim while sitting in judgement of the judgement of others.

Or am I being too judgmental?

Let's face it, we're all victims of your judgements about victimization while simultaneously judging your own judgement and degree of victimization.

To make the picture clearer:

Monday morning quarterbacking (Sunday morning Directeur Sportif-ing?) is serious biz!!

I miss 'Ma and Pa Kettle'. I use to watch it with my grandma when I was a kid.

Edit, to say instead: I love you, you sexy arbiter of expression on message boards. C'mon, pucker up. Gives us a kiss.

Edit, the first: Checked back, and cripes, all of this sturm und drang over three throwaway sentences I wrote in a much longer post (though those sentences were apparently far too "pissy" for some tastes). Never mind. I think I'll go have a drink instead.

what an insufferable pedant

And here I thought you were the king of pedants!

Why do you people hate women?

maybe we can start a KOP competition

what do you mean "you people?"

YMCA

In the USA, women comprise 10% of licensed racers.
In Florida, it was 8%.

I used to sit on the Local Association board. We tried everything to help increase women and junior membership.
Nothing changed a bit.

If women want more "equality", then the demand for the supplier needs to be there. Same as anything else in life.

NWS Alpine

The women I know that would potentially race are all triathletes. They all want to put a sticker on the back of their car. Starts to look like a bunch of radio stations.

while the big C may have been the cause, hubris was most likely the reason why he kept frankie in check.

Same issue up here YMCA...most OCA races attract between 300-500 riders, of which maybe 35 are women max (across all fields)....Drives my wife nuts and why she likes going to the US to do stage races...At least there she has a field larger then 25...
