    moish, he was also on the deep thought thread, which, I see you didnt read. I guess you have no time for deep thinking at 16… 🙂

    ames: oh gosh, you really think the cr is full of senior citizens???

    And what if it is? It’s a lot better than when this place was crawling with teenagers.

    BTW, I want everyone to know this upfront: Post #2000 is mine, and no one else is to try and take it. There’s no prize for it anyway, so why would you all bother?

    YES!!!!

    Doesn’t anyone here remember and miss Grumpy Old Man (GOM)?

    ames, modify that to “squeak, you think the CR is better off with grumpy old people? “

    #1079749
    squeak
    Participant

    Not sure if GOM was old, but he was very entertaining. He had a great sense of humor, and I miss it.

    Not every old person is grumpy. If I can wax philosophical a bit, I would say that a lot of grumpyness comes from the feeling “When do the good things start?”. If you aren’t appreciative of what you have in old age (or if you truly have little to appreciate) then you don’t have much to look forward to. And anyone else who is happy or physically more able than you (and who isn’t, at that point?) just grates on your nerves.

    Maybe cuz they know that they’re leaving the world soon (at 120) and they will miss you but they don’t want to show it so they be grumpy so no one will miss them. IDK why don’t you ask one?

    random question – what do you say to someone who’s your “friend” just for your brains but otherwise your not friends with at all except that you have the same circle of friends?

    #1079752

    I hear that, squeak.

    22oldgold, I once heard (forgot where) that hashem made teenagers the way they are (temperamental-wise) so that it shouldn’t be too hard for their parents to part with them when they get married. And the same for old people, that they are difficult when they’re older so that it shouldn’t be too hard for those close to them when they die.

    ames, that sounds like good advice, but I don’t listen to people who are younger than me 😉

    Random question: How much of what moderators delete is actually because it is unpostable and how much is just to mess with our heads?

    Unpostable: 1.1%

    Just Messing: 98.9%

    Thanks.

    #1079756

    Random question: How much of what moderators delete is actually because it is unpostable and how much is just to mess with our heads?

    90% is unpostable, the other half is mental.

    btw, the post you sent in after this one has been deleted (it is a duplicate)

    not always, but often the things i get deleted are really ok.

    and i’m me. so all those innocent people who get things deleted are probably just being teased.

    39, i thought you spoke proper english.

    I don’t know what post you are talking about, but if something I posted appeared twice then obviously delete one of them.

    I’m just asking because there seems to be a frustrating element of randomness sometimes, where compliant posts do not appear. Anyway, aerodynamic one, what about the last 10%? I assume the half that is mental refers to half of the unpostable.

    #1079760

    squeak, nice work with the edit button.

    Cute without being inappropriate.

    #1079761

    It was a quote from some US athlete. The game is 90% mental, the other half is physical.

    I thought you Americans would get it. I guessed incorrectly

    Sorry Squeak, but why then does NY sport a team known as the Yanks?

    #1079762

    Participant

    The correct quote is from Yogi, who said something more to the effect of “90% of the game is half mental”. I didn’t realize that you were botching a quote, I thought you were trying to be cute on your own.

    Mods this is for you: Do you have a chain of command? (Like if 2 mods disagree on something one has the final say.)

    #1079788

    it looks like hangman and random questions are having a race to see which thread can reach 2000 first lol

    I let you get post 2000 didn’t I? a delete here, or a few undelets there and… it could’ve been… who knows who.

    In all seriousness, I have nothing against any Yid whether in the CR or outside the CR.

    why do i have a hard time believing that? whatever i guess if you won’t admit it that means it’s not gonna change.

    kapusta: Yes. Now there are 40 posts per page. I noticed it too but I thought i was mistaken that there used to be 50 posts per page.

    this new format of 40 posts per page (thanx aussie!) is taking some getting used to, I vote to bring back the old 50 per page. 🙂
