Make sure you return him alive, too small and puny for a keeper.

This thread has OFFICALLY become it's own candidate.


I'll assume you meant officially rather than what you wrote, but there's still a problem.  You seem to be operating under the mistaken impression that you're in charge of making official declarations here.  I don't think that's the case.

How about it, gang, anybody remember voting to put this clown in charge of anything?  With his vast 4 days of membership experience and zero games played live or online?

All this hate from the word "official?" Wasn't that the forum topic and initial suggestion in the first place?

It might even pass dramatic and venture into the realm of hyperbole. Cool

Who is this "Windows7" user? The person seems to have some history amongst the locals.

Okay, so I've been busy.  But, as OP, the Sheriff is back in town.  I stand by my guns.  Word associations are by far the dumbest of all of the generic threads here. 

And, listen, I gotta tell you sometimes I just want to pull my hair out when I see, for the umpteenth time, threads like:

Fischer was the greatest of all time, agree or disagree?

Who's the best chess player?

why don't people resign?

Why DO people resign?

Look at my new opening!!!

Matrix chess, resistance is futile HUMAN.

How come I got booted for game chatting that the "orange breasted boobie chased away the Great Tit from my bird feeder". 

1.a3... refute it. 

I could go on and on.  However my point is that to the uninformed or noobies these threads at least have a point.  It's just that when we've seen them a 40 times we hate them.  

Word associations on the other hand?  WTF.  Are you kidding me? 

Hrumph.

Oh come on Reb.  I know you're a surly "so and so", but you must acknowlege that a thread trying to examine the stupidy of other thread topics from a metaposition should not, at least on it's face, be considered stupid.  

Of course this doesn't address what can happen to the course of the thread when peeved "word association" lovers start posting silly stuff and turn the content in a  dopey direction.
