Re: Two of our threads on hot topics

  • It's strange how the Hot Topics are different when I go to different boards.  I have this one open in one window and E08 open in another.  The Hot Topics are not the same for the boards.
  • imagemajorwife:

    They are not the same on non wedding club boards.  Besides, we will invate soon enough.

    mawhahahahaha

    I'm so ready for that.  I have visions of all of us storming through with "That's it!  Get the hell out of here!  We're BACK, b!tches!!" Big Smile

    I really need a hobby, don't I?

  • Do we have an invasion strategy? (I missed the earlier discussion, sorry).

    I missed this, too.  Fill us in, please.  All I heard was that it was set for 11/11 which is just a fabulous day what with being my birthday and anniversary and all.  Oh yeah, there's that whole veteran's/armistice day business, too, but that's not so important.

     I think we decided to return to E08 Nov 10th (give it some time for the post-election craziness to dissipate). I believe we agreed to just start having discussions like E08 of yore and to ignore all the crazies.

    Why do you hate America? Is it because you hate freedom?

     November 10, take over the board and act like we did before the crazies and ignore them.

  • Got it. Post + ignore. Does this mission have a name? I'm a sucker for slogans.

    I love america more.  Doesn't my birthday/anniversary prove that?  Would it have helped if I'd worn a flag pin on my dress?  If you're still in doubt, see sig.  You don't have Patriot Brand cheese whiz American flavor, do you?

  • Ohhhhh I missed this plan. Can we all please start thinking of high brow political conversations starters now?

    - NAFTA: Yay or Nay

    - ICJ: In or Out? 

    - Arugula: Elitist or just plain good lettuce? 

    - US Space Missions: Keep em going? Waste-o-money? 

    - China's Global Preeminence: Good or bad?

    - Is America's love affair with capitalism over?

     

  • What?  No "Is Obama a socialist/muslim/terrorist?"

    I had to look up ICJ.  Does that mean I'm not good enough?

    I think we need a discussion on foreign aid.

    And how about one on realpolitik?

  • I want to create a post that simply says "Cabinet positions"  followed by "Thoughts?" Then none of y'all respond and we'll take bets on how long it is before someone asks "kitchen or bathroom?"

    Oh, and I nominate Major to make cookies for the prize for closest guess.

  • -Is America's love affair with socialist GSE's over? Wink
    -What is worse: Fiscal deficits or trade deficits?
    -Education: Solutions beyond "more money"
    -The Federal Reserve is the source of our economic bubbles
    -Poll: Worst AINO - ally in name only
    -Would the SC be more balanced with more justices?

    ...that's all I can think of for the moment

    Slogan ideas for this invasion:

    Mission: Hostile Takeover
    Operation: Enduring Intelligence
    Operation: STFUAGTHOOB (STFU and get the hell off our board)

    ???

  • two things - first coke zero went  up my nose when I saw the lettuce possible topic and two, I am going to have to study before November 10 so I can do my part in living up to our "AP Class of the Nest" status.

    Yes

    Yes 

    Can we call it Operation HOOBer for short?

    Signed, Elena Forbusher (Bringing down the AP class average with bad jokes since 2007)

  • Hoober. teeheehee

    I like it. 

  • I instantly thought of Operation HOOBies, but HOOBer works too :-)
  • Elena...you're not the only one. I was looking at all of Caden's letters and thinking, "Can we shorten that? 'Cause there is NO WAY I can remember all those letters in that order!"
  • -- League of Nations vs. U.N. (which aspects of each did you/do you like and which don't you).

    -- Funding of Arts vs. Funding of Sports in schools

    -- Should all students get to go to public universities for free -- provided he/she maintains a certain grade point

    -- and don't forget all those Congressional bills that will come up after the election

  • Oh that's a good one Shoshie-

    Are college athletics (at least, the ones that bring in the big bucks) exploitative?

    How dumb do you think people are?

    You obviously haven't spent any time over there.

    Ditto.  To some there, the old board is full of intelligent conversation (so hard to miss when half of them talk of making fun/having fun at others expense Ick!).
