Youtube Video

When the original, not-funny show was redone for American TV is when I first heard about it, and in both cases it was so obnoxious a premise to me that someone slapping a child would somehow throw entire families through loops and just a nuclear bomb-style fall out of whining, my first thought when I saw the Australian one was "I know a lot of Aussies and they aren't huge pussies like this, who is this supposed to appeal to?" I could only imagine in real life in Australia or America (well maybe not some of WASP America) the guy hitting the kid simply getting his teeth kicked in, not a super-PTSD melodrama rippling through the entire community.

In the words of Bart Simpson:

Sock him, Dad! Sock everybody!

Plus they make the kid so annoying and deserving that it's almost a comedy.

You've never setup your copy machine as a DC? Well, you sir are an amateur! Amateur I say!

Let's see if we can't get Exchange installed on a Rico.

was on shark tank and they were offered : 50,000 for 10% plus 1/potato until he gets 150,000.00 and then .50/potato....
and it was accepted.

Shark Tank is just a guise over infomercials. They've made a "show" out of traditional infomercials, nothing more. Everything on it is garbage. It's just a new spin on an old format with some "reality show" thrown in to make it more "fun" for that specific audience.

What? You don't see the ultimate benefit of napkins with faces of the US presidents made to also look like your dog with an app, or gourmet ice cream you have to buy with an app, or an exercise bike with wheels made of feet with an app, or a cup holder for your motorised cart...with an app?

@LostDungeon said in What Are You Doing Right Now:

I want to order my girlfriend false eyelashes on the web and I do not know how she will react to such a gift, because not every day people give false eyelashes. And I just want her to become more beautiful!

If you insist on something so oddly specific, pay for her to get professional eye lash extensions instead. This advice came from my wife.

@pchiodo said in What Are You Doing Right Now:

Get her a trip to a beauty spa instead. Tell her you want to pamper her.

That won't help with his eye lash fetish. And depending on the woman, this could make things worse. Some women like things like this, others like my mother would consider you have ulterior motives for picking such a stereotypical thing for them to do, or if they're like my wife, they're irritated because now they have something else to do in addition to all the other things they have to handle.

So maybe they like it or maybe they hate it, either way they still will have disgustingly hideous eyelashes that evidently make them abhorrent looking like Medusa.

Checked the email I use for ML for the first time in a couple of years or something, it's nearly 8GB of around 47,000+ emails from ML. Trying to delete all this, jeeze.

You can unsubscribe from it...

Unless that's a fourth dimensional function, it won't help me with older emails now.

SHUT UP, YOU'RE BEING TOO LOUD!

@Obsolesce said in Random Thread - Anything Goes:

Lol I did that on purpose on there before because of the tone someone gave me.

It really sucks when you find the same question you had and someone does say "I figured it out" and just leaves with no other information. My last account was banned for, among other things, replying to one of these people (there were no other answers so it wasn't a situation like yours) by saying "F--- you" not censored though. I did get at least a couple of up votes for that. This was a long time ago back when there wasn't a minimal limit nor weird auto-deleting things for comments.

So you admit it's nepotism? The truth is finally out!

I don't work for him, How would it be nepotism?

I sense a troll in our mix..

I just noticed that there was an article about that on Spiceworks, but due to weird Twitter ad stuff, I can't see it.

I'd like to see it myself
