Alas, Poor ONT. I Knew Him Horatio!

Good evening Horde! I probably won't be around much tonight, the wife and I are headed up into Oklahoma where we'll be camping in the foothills of the Ouachita Mountains. Tomorrow we will be going on the Mountain Gate Poker Run, sponsored by the Talihina, OK tourism board, I'm hoping that it will be a good time. The scenery should be gorgeous, anyway. However, I couldn't forget to leave you with your weekly meme madness. Hopefully I'll have internet to post this, I should be camped deep in the foothills north of Broken Bow by the time 10 ET rolls around.

To give the prosperity gospel folks the tiniest bit of credit that they don't deserve, I believe that God wants us to be happy, and wants us to prosper. To go from that premise to prospering off of a perverted version of God's word is obscene. Prospering from living as God intends vs prospering off of misrepresenting God's word is, as I said, obscene, and an express ticket to hell. See Matthew 7:21.

Tonight's ONT has been brought to you by food flags:

ETA: It was just over 4 years ago that we lost Harry Anderson (and by "lost" I mean he died. If we just lost Harry Anderson, he'd turn up in an unopened pack of cards. Every. Stinking. Time.). I always loved his stuff, he was a supremely gifted entertainer. Harry made me happy, even though I realize that if we had ever met he would have had me eating out of his hand. The world is poorer without him in it anymore. Enjoy his genius one more time, if you'd like:

46 I was wisecracking about Jon Stewart the self-hating Jew inviting me on his stupid fag show in the last thread, but it gave me an idea.

This idea is free for the taking, for any famous non-retard who wants it for a podcast. The premise is... Famous guy who can draw a crowd says:

"Everyone in American public life is a fool or a crook, and usually both, because our irredeemable, fucked-up, ugly joke of a society selects solely for obligate assholes in the public square.

So... Who needs these shit-sucking douchebags? I know I don't, and I bet you don't either.

Instead of doing the typical 'famous, pocket-stuffing corrupt dimwits arguing about stuff that will never affect them' format, I'm going to post a topic each week, and you people, real people, people who don't suck from dawn til dusk as a preference, can email me at showprep@myshowisntshit.com.

Neighbor was interviewed and said this:

“I just heard a popping noise, you know, pop pop pop pop, and I woke up and I looked out the window,” said the neighbor. She said she thought someone was breaking into a trailer she has on her property, but soon discovered that wasn’t the case."Then I heard more pops and I jumped back in bed and I’m like, I’m not getting out of bed.”

It's basically what I do when there are gunmen shooting it out in my parking lot. It happens every six months or so. Wake the kids up, and get them to lay down in relatively safe areas of the apartment, and then go back to bed, gun in hand, in case it spills over into my home.

the brits pronounce "Skeletal" as "Skel-EE-tell" and "Diplodicus" as "diplo-DIKE-us"

the bananas chick is doing a drop on the final syllable I have heard it before, I think it is an attempt to not have that up-tone at the end of each sentence and sound dumb

It's been a while, probably 15 years or more, but when I went through Roswell on the way to Carlsbad, I was disappointed at how little alien crap there was. Like a museum and a gift shop or two on the main drag and a painting on the side of a diner. I was expecting over the top Alien Vegas.

I think we are only able to understand God in reflection of what is in our own hearts.
I think God cares deeply, and has provided us with everything we need to be Godly, happy and prosperous, but he also gave us free will because he already had animals that would act correctly without thinking or understanding why they do what they do. And free will is the freedom to screw up.

233 To give the prosperity gospel folks the tiniest bit of credit that they don't deserve, I believe that God wants us to be happy, and wants us to prosper. To go from that premise to prospering off of a perverted version of God's word is obscene.

Those promises of prosperity were to Israel *if* they obeyed God's laws. They're not part of the Gospel (the point of which is roughly "You can't live up to my standards so I did t for you"). Frankly I'm not sure if they apply at all, at least in this world. God may bless us, at His discretion, but it's to position us for whatever we're supposed to be doing in our corner of His plan, not because we've earned His favor.

As far as The "Urban Dictionary" which I try to avoid, I think it's basically a put on. Yes, there are some words that have an alternate meaning, but I think whoever developed then went on to make up words that have a crude or rude sense because it's their little joke and if crudity makes money well it sells.

Next thing I knew, there was a smoking QDP shaped crater, and MsHum was re-holstering.

I did type a mini-rant his way, but he was long vaporized by time I posted my response, as MsHum got kinda pissed off over being pissed on.

Posted by: Kindltot at April 22, 2022 11:41 PM (xhaym)

I got the hot water to the shower half-ass working last night, so i was able to have a shower this morning. I don't run the water heater very hot, so i could live with it. I was going to replace the shower valve set, and the kitchen valve set, but damn! the new ones are friggin' ridiculous in price, and all are made in China. I am going to take the shower valve set apart, wash all the lime out of it with HCl, and rebuild it. I wanted to buy a 30 X 20 single stainless steel kitchen sink, but $400? Sheesh!

I think I may go to Calgary, and check out the Habitat Re-Store. Then a wholesale plumbing supply.

278 Preface: I’ve been drinking. And this may be a very different crowd than the one I’m normally posting in the comments, so y’all may not get me. But I just want to leave this here.


I got bored today and looked up old friends and boyfriends online and found that the one boyfriend who wanted to marry me right out of high school (why I dump him) is now a widower. It broke my heart. Three children to raise without her. So young. Time is so short. Well, I’m sitting across the living room from my husband who is singing Tennessee Whiskey to me and I’m trying to be in the moment with him, but I’m grieved. It could be just a second that would change my life forever. Can I even imagine my life without him? No. I can’t. Cherish every moment, good or bad. I just can’t imagine the snatch, and I certainly couldn’t bear it without the express knowledge of the saving power of the blood of Jesus Christ. That’s all there is sweet friends. Whether you are tethered or not, it’s Him. He is the peace. He is the comfort.

Posted by: ShainS at April 22, 2022 11:47 PM (HM+TB)

The cobs call the tune and we have to dance with it, and good on them for doing it, but I will offer a defense here.

I do not get the 'thread-jacking' in an open thread. The thread is open. Bringing up the same topic, be it busty redheads, guns, ammo or whatever is may be popular, but how is that any different than a good chicken sandwich or whatever? You can skim over people's comments if you do not want to read them.

Of course, for guest bloggers or something with a defined theme, I understand completely.

Isn't it more that he would not follow the cobs direction to stop going into specific topics? That's not thread-jacking, that's being an idiot.

Indeed, there was. Few years back, I got along with QDP well enough, discussing audio hardware and the like. But began to distance myself, as he drifted into post-Quora threadjacking with whatever suited him to post, regardless of previous goings on. Sometimes, is OK (we all do, now & then?) but every time, got MsHum's ire in focus.

When QDP took keyboard in hand to steer the TxMoMeet to his wishes, I weighed in heavily, I'll admit. But he had a full head of steam up, and Charlie lost the throttle, no way to slow down. no way to slow down.

That's when he went egg-shaped and Ms Hum suspended him, and the final denounment was as I'd typed it, above.

Any "ganging up on" was coincidental at most, and unfortunate at worst. A good person can be "quirky", and that's fine. One should not though, become the sum of their Quirks to embody the whole of their being. Jumps the shark from "quirky" to "tedious". 98% threadjacking became tedious, resultant blow ups to the COBS became worse, and so the hammer fell.

Criticizing his weight, his inability to land a woman, having no career. Basically shitting on him for being a loser at will, and daring him to say fuckall about it because the cob had the banhammer at his disposal. And after months and months of this shit, qdp blew up.

Every now n' then, wouldn't bother anyone. 98% of the time "Hi Horde, Hi guys, Hi COBS" (or whatever) and then *puke up desired topic*.. it was just a variant of his months of posting Quora questions, and the COBS were firm with him, if he wanted AoS to be a Quora subsite, they wouldn't allow it.

Prayer requests constantly "interrupt" any ongoing thread, and I don't think I've ever seen an objection thereto. Because there's good people, here. But the constant, habitual, even malicious steering the conversation away from what it was, and towards his topic of choice? He long ago admitted that he liked people talking about the things of his choosing. That's not a good habit, good friendship or good manners.

It wouldn't be long tolerated in any bar that I know of.

Yeah, I remember that with L'Elle, and it was bad. Somehow, I'd missed any given COB riding herd on QDP with the denigration. Count it as a hole in my knowledge-base, then. And if so, then that mitigates things a bit in the QDP column.

Still, when even a correspondence with Ben Had seeks to try to spread oil on the troubled waters, well..

If QDP showed at a TxMoMeet, I'd show him every grace and favor.

Several years ago, they redid and repaved the road here in front of our place, for a stretch of several miles. They used this huge machine I'd never seen before. Made a lot of racket, rattling the windows all day, even when it is was still pretty far away.

What the hell is that thing, I wondered. I looked it up. It's called a reclaimer. Damn thing chews up the existing asphalt and mixes it in with some material they spread on top. A truck pulling a huge solution tank goes in front of it, with a large pipe feeding it. This is some sort of binder solution.

They run over it with packers a few times, and it makes a nice surface to lay the new asphalt on top of.

I told him that given the sheer numbers it would take 50 to a hundred years to make the shift. He said he wasb't sure we had 50 to 100 years.

From what I just looked up, "eh-pit-oh-me" is the only listed pronunciation and on both sides of the Pond. There is some difference in the Brit pronunciation, but it's got the "ee" on the end as well.

419 A while back I was making a point that there were no good comedy movies in the last 20 years. But it was at the end of a thread and I carried it over into the ONT, as we have very often carried subjects from thread to thread over the years. Funny enough the entire point of my "query" was that there was no answers, so in all likelihood no one was going to answer. It was essentially rhetorical. Which was my entire point.

I got pounced on for "threadjacking" and insulted by nameless cob (who I will clearly state here I have no real problem with because I do get over things). I answered very slightly and got insulted again. Instead of reacting I took myself off because when I "react", it's a show not to be missed and I knew where that would end - and I wasn't ready to not be here anymore.

A few people defended me on the "open thread" slant - and one or possibly two kissed up to nameless cob over it. I keep a list.

Ok, we have to define the terms then. Airplane! in my opinion is the funniest, densest funny movie ever made. It is not just talky, talky funny, but also sight gags. Lightning in a bottle.

Comparing most comedies to Airplane! is like comparing Hitler to Michelangelo.

Yeah, either that or your ears are burning. Same old wives tale different body part.

It's like a horoscope -- Sooner or later, the writer will "get one right". It's inevitable that this will happen.

518 I miss QDPSteve and his fast food reviews. I enjoyed reading about his misadventures in life. He seemed, at least to me, a genuine type.

519 Late one night I was here w basically, just Steve. From that conversation I learned he is a middle-aged man who was trying to create an online relationship w a woman he met on FB. We talked about how friendships can oftentimes lead to romance, bc this was something new for him. That conversation made me realize that a life full of relationships is a gift and not all of us are so lucky. And, I thank Steve for that insight.

523 I think qdp was ok and he suffered from an overzealous cob with ban hammer fever. Unlike others, who got personal and over the top and deserved it.
It's why I abandoned this place for a long time when a latter day late night cob would just strike people down because he felt like it. Begins with an Mae..

That's why I love WD. He jams us with too many fun links so we just go into Brownian motion into the night with random off the wall comments.

524 I signed on to AoS probably 12-14 years ago, tried to post just a Hello Everyone sort of message and was promptly told (by the System?) that I was banned from posting. Tried over and over for a few months and then gave up when I couldn't figure out how to contact an admin. Then recently tried again and like magic it worked. Who knows the whys.

525 Saw a music video recently (Instapundit) that I hadn't seen since I was stationed in the UK 30+years ago. The KLF - Justified and Ancient. They were some odd band, Brits, who made electronica music over there. Anyway, this video caught my eye because they called Tammy Wynette and asked if she'd sing the song and be in the video. She said yes. It was...odd. Not a fan of the particular form of music but Tammy Wynette is great!

It got a lot of air play in the UK at the time.

529 523 I think qdp was ok and he suffered from an overzealous cob with ban hammer fever...

And I saw some of the very personal attacks he made against a couple of cobs; qdp wasn't very stable and it showed in his self-described employment record.

"Everyone" was out to get him. I'll just say these two things and shut up -- When everyone is out to get you, it's usually you that's the problem. It's like when you look at all the players at a poker table, trying to figure out who is the fish, and can't find one. Hint -- You are the fish.

And I don't think he had evil intent. Just poor social skills. And it is good that he still has defenders here. Ouat, I got accused of being *something bad*here, and I had defenders. Made me feel good, yes. keena, keep on commentin'.

I must have been MIA for a bit as I missed this stuff. What is the timeframe here? I don't miss much here for long, maybe I was off after one of Jules' folks died last year.

Was surprised that Qdp wasn't around, never did hear if he left on his own or was banned. It was obvious there was bad blood between him and MH, don't know the origin of that.

533 cont
And like you TS I was shocked to hear redc1c4 had died. He was a truly nice guy and cared about this community. When I was somehow banned on my home puter and asked for help (from the work puter) he tried to help me get it fixed.

And he didn't know me from Adam, we had no particular relationship before, he just wanted to help. I was shocked to hear of his demise as a result of a random fall.

According to the comic strip, one panel says that they maybe shouldn't have committed 'all those murders'.

I dunno for sure, but that might be a high barrier for getting into Heaven. Hell, therefore, is a distinct possibility.

I'm just guessing here.

Thanks for that info C. I was puzzled when you first started posting as you seemed to have a great knowledge of the history here. Now I get. Do enjoy your posts, glad it's working for you now.
