You'd think that with such a well thought out opinion such as this, Bucky here would have taken the time to register.

My thoughts exactly William. But it's not my board and I'm still rather new here so I thought it would be rude of me to say so myself.

Thanks for saying it for me! 8)

What, you guys didn't recognize Bucky Katt?? I found the clue in his use of the phrase "smart cats." You know, he's never been quite the same since he sold out.

Ah, you kids and your wacky jive-lingo-secret-code-talk! I guess I was too busy pondering my obvious lack of imagination (see upthread) to catch the reference. :P

Oh, well, he's got a book. That makes every post as if it was the word of the lord himself. I apologise.

I finally saw this on TV last night. I heard the melodic jingle of "We love the subs!" and had to come out to the living room to witness the advert in its non-internet, broadcast glory as the creators intended it to be viewed. It was a marvelous experience.

I think some people just need drama..

Post by LovelyLindseyAnn »

Why do you people even care about the Quizzno's commercial so much? Why don't you all just be happy for someone else's success? If that guy wanted his little "Sponge Monkeys" on a commercial, then that is his own business. You may not like the commercial, but all of you who saw it know what Quizzno's is, and they made you interested in their company, whether it be a good or bad interest. So all I have to say is grow up and stop ranting like little jelous high school girls.

LindseyAnn, why do you care what anybody here thinks? You obviously cared enough to rush over and tell us all off, yet not enough to actually register and stick around. And based on your opinion, I can't believe that you actually bothered to read past the first 3 or 4 posts, yet you were moved to comment anyway.

Weird.

Yeah! Um, what she said. So there!

Honestly, that was my reaction to LindseyAnn's post too. I think the overwhelming number of comments have been pro commerce.

Lindsey, perhaps some work needed on the A.D.D / anger issues ;)

With all sincerity, though, do stick around. This is a pretty engaging board. And, with the exception of a political rowe or two, a refreshingly positive and supportive group of folks.

My post says "she". Either I wrote it that way in the first place and I don't know what you meant, or Greg edited the post and changed it to say "she" or ....

I don't know.

Anyway, no offense intended!

Yes. Sometimes I fix little things. I'll make text URLs into links, or trim long URLs so they display more conveniently, or sometimes make an anonymous poster's post back into a user post when that user didn't get logged in properly and posted anonymously by mistake, and very occasionally, I'll make a very tiny editorial correction, like in Tim's post where he originally wrote "what he said" which I changed to read "what she said" based on the fact that (I'm fairly certain, anyhow) that she is, in fact, a she.

Interestingly enough, Lisa replied to correct his mistake some time after I changed it, which leads me to believe that she's using the "watch this topic" feature and so read your reply as you originally wrote it, then replied here, but didn't notice my subtle editing, which leads to a slightly confusing post where she says that the word "she" should be "she." Which it is now, but wasn't originally.

Somewhere back on topic... What was the topic? Oh, yes- "We love the subs!!" Thank you.
Good morning! That's a nice tnetennba.

Ah HA! All is made clear!

Yes, I am using "Watch This Topic" and saw myself referred to as "he". No, I am not offended. Yes, I love subs.

And now, back to our regularly scheduled... er, whatever we were doing. 8)

It's spelled "jealous".

I'm used to trolls who put some sort of effort into their work. If you're going to come a play with the big boys, you should leave something to be proud of.
