Heres a simple game to pass the time with.

The last one to post wins.

Ready...

Set...

GO!!!

This is good. I can make a lot of posts, and get a higher rank.

This is a win-win situation - if I keep it going

Oh Rocky... you just invite chaos, don't you?

I like it

This might become an interesting topic full of useless stuff, but a good topic to make it endlessly long. This could become our longest topic ever. And a good way to get my rank and my previous count of messages back. I had over 3000 posts. But noooooo. We had to start all over again. I mean Rock wanted to. Setting all the post counts back to the number we have made so far after the crash. But I've got a few things up my sleeve to get my ranking and posts back up.
Like Trumbo said: 'I'll do it again, better!!!'
And that's what we'll do as well and I'm going for the 10.000 posts and beyond.

I could entertain you with a lesson on ancient Egyptian religion, but, instead, I'll tell you my favourite joke:

Sherlock Holmes and Mr. Watson went on a camping trip.
After a good meal and a bottle of wine they lay down in their tent for the night and went to sleep.
Some hours later, Holmes awoke and nudged his faithful friend awake. "Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see."
Watson replied, "I see millions and millions of stars."
"What does that tell you?" Holmes questioned.
Watson pondered for a minute.
"Astronomically, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, I observe Saturn is in Leo. Logically, I
deduce that the time is approximately a quarter past three. Theologically, I can see that God is all-powerful and that we are small and insignificant. Meteorologically, I suspect that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow.
"Is that all?", Holmes asked.
"Yes." Watson replied. "Why, am I missing something?".
Holmes was quiet for a moment, then spoke: "Watson, you fool! Someone has stolen the tent!"

LOL! Sherlock Holmes jokes... I never thought I'd see the day!

I don't get it. But I'd prefer a joke over Egyptian stuff, because my mom has it way over her head with Egypt. So bad even that I don't watch The Mummy or The Mummy Returns anymore and they were two of my favourite films. (Well I don't watch it when she's around). Egypt was a mysterious country to me, so I've been there and done that, saw the temples and pyramids. But that she gets hooked meets that boyfriend of her. And I've had it with it. Now before the whole Egypt thing everything had to be Spanish for her. She wanted to get me into Spanish stuff. She wanted that I learned to speak Spanish. But I knew that if I start, she pushes and pushes me until I'm fed up with it as she usual does. I wanna do things but out of free will. Now that she's off learning Arabic and stuff, I'm getting interested in learning Spanish. I know it, I'm evil. EVIL!!!
Do have to admit though, I always said I never wanted to learn Spanish, but she said, that I would change my mind some day. That's true, so I lost a little bit on that matter... BUT... I became interested in learning it after she lost interest in it, so maybe she thought, he'll never want to learn it, but now I do. So actually I win. Once everything used to be Spanish for her. Her music, her interests, now that all changed over to Arabic, but I got hooked to Spanish. Not that everything has to become Spanish for me now, but I began to get respect to it and willing to learning it. Besides I've got Spanish roots, so why shouldn't I now?

I am on a thirty day diet.

So far, I have lost 15 days.

again, creds to Herman d'Z

Peut-être en français?

Sherlock Holmes et son assistant, le docteur Watson, font du camping. Au milieu de la nuit, Sherlock Holmes réveille son comparse et lui demande: - Watson, regardez vers le ciel et dites-moi ce que vous en déduisez. - Je vois des millions d'étoiles. S'il y a des millions d'étoiles, et si certaines d'entres elles sont entourées de planètes, il est probable qu'il y a des planètes qui ressemblent à la terre. Et, si tel est le cas, il pourrait y avoir de la vie sur une de ces planètes. - Watson, vous êtes idiot! On a volé notre tente!

You are so lucky. My next trip will be a pilgrimage to the holy ruins of Abtu ('Abydos').

There's a lot I would want to post here.
Like about the guy I really really like. But I can't as some of my "fun" colleagues are scanning the internet to find smut on others.
So anything I say/post can and probably will be used against me. In the OPS room.

I argue very well. Ask any of my remaining friends. I can win an argument on any topic, against any opponent. People know this, and steer clear of me at parties. Often, as a sign of their great respect, they don't even invite me.

I really like Stargate

Did you know that Teal'c didn't say "Indeed" even once in the first season?
The first time he says it is in the episode Family in season 2.

Argh! I hate French. No offence.

Herman de Zwaan? Sounds Flemish or Dutch

43% of all statistics are worthless.

does that mean that 57% are usefull??? i can do maths

I saw something in a program on something in Miami, and they were saying, "We've redecorated this building to how it looked over 50 years ago!" And people were going, "No, surely not, no. No one was alive then!"

Dunno

There are lies


And there are da**ed lies



















And then there is statistics

I WIN!!!!

No you don't

I won't post in this thread until I know what I can possible win

Smoke a joint and win the hundred meters, fair play to you. That's pretty damn good. Unless someone's dangling a Mars bar off in the distance.

Eddie!!

"Holy Ghost... this is not an episode of 'Scooby Doo'! [ in best James Mason as God voice ]

Promotion.

Yes, I'm dedicating this thread to him.


“But with dogs, we do have “bad dog.” Bad dog exists. “Bad dog! Bad dog! Stole a biscuit, bad dog!”

The dog is saying, “Who are you to judge me? You human beings who’ve had genocide, war against people of different creeds, colors, religions, and I stole a biscuit?! Is that a crime? People of the world!”

“Well, if you put it that way, I think you’ve got a point. Have another biscuit, sorry.””

Bragging rights ?

A merit badge.

the pleasure of knowing you won.

The satisfaction of a job well done.
