I didn't think that post count really meant much. Once people have established the type of player you are, I don't believe that post counting is totally necessary.
I like padding the number a little some new punks think I know my $hit, but that is about it. I was kind of frustrated when guys with 100 posts and obviously monarch to emporer skills were telling me what to do. The other extreme is some of the guys that cruise the OT thread and Demogame threads and pick up close to 1000 posts a month at CFC. That is pretty dang prickish as well.

They are just trying to socialize, you know. Thing which might be failing low in reality. They live considerable portion of their life on these forums. Hence the postcount.

I have found proof that I will be poor for the rest of my life.
http://www.cnn.com/2005/US/Careers/0...oks/index.html

Actually this is not really true as I currently make $20 an hour and my wife makes $6. But I think that is due to me having 2 bachelors degrees and 99% of my masters done, and her having a G.E.D.

When I was skinny and ugly, then I got no respect. Ugly and football sized, respect and more money. If I can make it up to Vin Diesel or Arnold size, than I can be an action star. But I have no desire to work out 4 hours a day and use steriods and/or 3-5 supplements.
There is a lot of truth to this, but I try and judge almost entirely on ability and skill not looks. I just lucked out that my wife is a looker and can cook.

Well, she can then take care of the looks for both of you then. And other people would be thinking: "That must be a smartass guy who got himself that kind of a wife!"

There is a severe weather alert in my area. Time to go outside.

Well the smartass is right. I might have to be careful or I am going to incur some serious ass wrath over in the terrorism thread. Without being a smartass, I am digging a deep hole with Krys, and it looks like Anarres too. It is kind of amazing the different opinions people hold on world events that can be directly tied to location and upbringing.
That being said, I think I am getting addicted to off-topic/spam threads.

So, I guess it doesn't count if you mom thinks you are good looking?

romeothemonk · 08-07-2005, 22:04

I Don't know. My Mom doesn't give me money anymore, give me a job to do, (Except when I visit home, which is very infrequently, and I don't get paid then anyway) or even cook for me.
Plus compared to my younger brother, I am "Homely." Not exactly morale boosting words to hear, but it could be worse. It could be raining.

My mom doesn't give me money anymore or cook for me, if that makes you feel any better. Well, she does give me money for gas when I drive my sister places, and when I go shopping for groceries she pays me back.

Plus, I don't even know exactly what she thinks. She did say recently that I am not ugly.
