Board Whining
I don't post much anymore. I'm not sure why. Maybe bc my opinion is the only one that matters to me or bc it takes too long to educate the serfs. All kidding aside, to the people who keep bitching about being attacked or are trying to stick up for the ones who are being attacked, please stop.
This kind of whining is the reason why dodgeball was outlawed. If you are getting smashed in the face with a red rubber ball then beef up and get Nolan Ryan to teach you the heater. Or learn how to get outta the way. Same can be said for posting. All new posters should read for a week before posting to get the hang of things before making an ass out of themselves. Stream of consciousness so this is the end.
EDITED for Whinning. And I'm the top dictionary salesman. Just because you can sell 'em doesn't mean you read 'em.

While I agree, the off season breeds such lunacy. I don't think it's going to just go away anytime soon. I predict I go into super grammar Nazi mode in a few weeks and start pointing out everyone's punctuation errors.
January 20th, 2010 at 4:39 PM ^
Yes" I agree with this,
January 20th, 2010 at 4:58 PM ^
I've already begun this process, though I'm currently restraining myself.
January 20th, 2010 at 9:02 PM ^
My process with dealing with this ridiculousness is just to not read anything unless its:
1. Interesting.
2. Relevant.
or
3. Batshit insane.
Like this new "Tired of Haiti Relief" post. This should be a winner.

I like you're idea. Grammar is more important than anything else is.
January 20th, 2010 at 5:24 PM ^
Their is nothing more important than grammer.
January 20th, 2010 at 6:03 PM ^
Spelling is nice, two.
January 20th, 2010 at 6:11 PM ^
"...then grammer." Once you get that part right than you can start worrying about the more complicated stuff.
January 20th, 2010 at 7:40 PM ^
And out of all the incorrect things in that post, you pick out the one where he properly uses the comparative and say that it's wrong?January 20th, 2010 at 7:47 PM ^
Pretty sure the dude you replied to was playing along with the joke. Either your meter's busted for missing his or mine's busted if I missed yours on this post.
January 20th, 2010 at 8:14 PM ^
working just fine
January 20th, 2010 at 8:35 PM ^
-1 for not picking up on *my* sarcasm (I mean, I also misused "than" in the second sentence), +1 for excellent Simpsons reference, +1 for providing example of actual irony.
Net +1. Well done
You know, unless your comment is meant as metasarcasm or something. Than +100 to you.
January 20th, 2010 at 5:13 PM ^
FWIW, I didn't even realize the initial spelling error. I just want to start cracking down on the totally unreadable run on sentences written as if the poster is trying to send a text message.
January 20th, 2010 at 4:35 PM ^
Okay, I'm done.
January 20th, 2010 at 4:37 PM ^
Don't mean to nitpick, but you spelled "whining" wrong......
January 20th, 2010 at 4:49 PM ^
Who the hell do I look like, Merriam Webster?
January 20th, 2010 at 4:58 PM ^
I think you look a little more like Merriam than you do Webster....
January 20th, 2010 at 5:05 PM ^
And you look like a bald homeless guy in a suit?
January 20th, 2010 at 5:15 PM ^
Haha, I do now.
January 20th, 2010 at 7:33 PM ^
That movie's fucking great. Even though Frank's costume is ridiculous, it might be the single most terrifying thing I've ever seen in a movie. I only own about 4 movies, and this is one of them.
(Before anyone asks, the others are "Big Momma's House", "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days", and "Showgirls.")
January 20th, 2010 at 8:27 PM ^
You can learn a lot about a man from his movie collection.
January 20th, 2010 at 9:20 PM ^
Things in movies that are more terrifying than scary emo bunnies (which are still just bunnies).
1)Mickey Rourke's new plastic face
2)Sly Stallone's new plastic face
3)Inbred monster hillbillies in Wrong Turn
4)Large Marge (Pee Wee's Big Adventure)
5)Glenn Close (EEWWW)
6)Rosie O'Donell (EEWWW x2)
7)Ben Affleck's acting
January 20th, 2010 at 9:24 PM ^
Yeah, but they're bunnies that only appear when your time on Earth is ending.
I disagree with all of the above except Large Marge. She did scare the hell out of me as a kid. But Rosie O'Donnell's hawt.
January 20th, 2010 at 4:50 PM ^
Perhaps he was spelling whinnying.
January 20th, 2010 at 4:38 PM ^
On the internet.
Good luck with this endeavor.
January 20th, 2010 at 4:43 PM ^
This is what happens when you give a bunch of nerds keyboards and access to the internet. I do think Brian should make it so you need 100 points before you can post. But yeah anyways We are going to punch Wisconsin in the mouth tonight.
January 21st, 2010 at 5:19 PM ^
I an not a nerd. I confess to being the exact oppisite. I'm not a nerd hater but a self confessed "knuckle dragger/mouth bresather". I'm also not computer savy, eveytime I post I worry about the grammer "nazi's". I have to say this site is an oasis to me though, I don't know how I stumbled on to it but I've been hooked since 2006. GO BLUE & GOD Bless.
Let the spell ckeck begin!
January 21st, 2010 at 10:09 PM ^
It's savvy. I'm letting bresather go, and ckeck? You're just trying to bait me...
Be safe, GunnersApe.

It's raining like cats and dogs out here in southern California.
Waves are 15-20 feet in Newport Beach.
January 20th, 2010 at 11:14 PM ^
It was raining out there? Tony Toni Tone, you damned liars!
January 20th, 2010 at 4:47 PM ^
Double post is doubled.
January 20th, 2010 at 6:32 PM ^
+100 if I could!
January 20th, 2010 at 4:48 PM ^
there will always be those who can't seem to exist without getting into it constantly with their neighbors, like the skinny little punk with the big mouth who just can't stop egging on the guy who's twice his size until he gets his face punched in for the fourteenth time, and then complains loudly about the injustice of it all. There will be a period of sulking, self-pitying, quiet martyrdom, but eventually the itch will become literally unbearable again and he'll start bothering the big guy again. Lather, rinse, repeat, ad infinitum ad absurdum.
January 20th, 2010 at 4:50 PM ^
Is this an allegory for the story of Emo?

January 20th, 2010 at 5:09 PM ^
That is a sweet animation you have there.
January 20th, 2010 at 4:56 PM ^
Deleted attempt at witty response pointing out spelling error as OP corrected error.
January 20th, 2010 at 5:00 PM ^
This post is full of it.
Hooray Offseason!
January 20th, 2010 at 5:20 PM ^
You're whining about whining?
January 20th, 2010 at 5:25 PM ^
about his whining about whining.
But that means that I'm whining about you're whining about... [/head asplode]
January 20th, 2010 at 5:41 PM ^
I'm merely remarking about his whining about whining so I am not whining and neither are you.
January 20th, 2010 at 6:24 PM ^
Formerly Anonymous loses.
Worst. Grammar. Nazi. EVER.
January 20th, 2010 at 5:25 PM ^
Yeah, I agree. All of this bitching is pissing me off. Grow a pair or STFU. Bitching will either make you enemies, or the wrong kind of friends (I'm looking at you em0).
This blog is very simple. Don't be a fucking retard and people will respect you. If you can't be non-retarded then GTFO.
January 20th, 2010 at 5:50 PM ^
When my 3-year-old whines, we tell him we can't hear him. The reality is we can but he doesn't know that so he repeats himself without whining. That's what we should do with the whiners here, tell them we can't hear them unless they speak in their normal voice and with sound logic. If they refuse, we just ignore them.
January 20th, 2010 at 6:53 PM ^
Do you think that would work with an eight year old?
January 20th, 2010 at 7:01 PM ^
Yeah I think so.
January 20th, 2010 at 7:19 PM ^
unless the eight year old has been hearing it since he (or she) was three.
January 20th, 2010 at 7:34 PM ^
Did you say something?
