A bit of a breather idea:

How's about a thread where we praise that which we usually condemn?

For instance since my usual posts are America good America win Europe bad Europe lose, I'll give a very different post here.

So how's about it, Talk_Politics? Shall we all devote an entire set of comment threads to talking nice about what we usually hate?

She's especially sensitive to bees.

I think you spelled the third one incorrectly.

There's no Football in Europe.

NFL Europe went out of business a few years ago.

What you have is that pansy athletic endeavor called Soccer and a a real mans game called Rugby.

The rest of the world begs to differ.

[rasilio]

Yeah but we have more nukes so what we say goes ;-)

[htpcl]

Yeah but Ghana beat the dust off you. :)

[enders_shadow]

It's OK though.
We're gonna package that dust and sell it to the Ghanaians{?} at a huge markup.

[enders_shadow]

once you have enough nukes to destroy all life on the planet, it doesn't matter who has more

i tried explaining this to a conservative once; he wanted nothing of it

"we should be able to destroy the entire planet as many times as we want"

it was painful

Somehow I think the former USSR would disagree vehemently with that. MAD prevented WWIII.

[enders_shadow]

When the USSR and the US can destroy the entire planet 5x over, WE DONT NEED ANY MORE NUKES

I don't care who disagrees.

[underlankers]

And we also elect guys like Shrub as President. ;P.

[thies]

you seem to talk about handegg, where pansies need lots of padding because they are too cowardly to play rugby and have such shitty endurance that they spend more time in timeouts than actually playing

[mahnmut]

Aaand, nailed.
