So you are the equivalent of an OT iPod spammer? Cute. :roll:

If you post a a bit of news in P&N, the replies are either people saying "HOW TRUE!!" or "You SUCK!" If the OP says something in line with your views it is a good post and if it say something against your beliefs then the OP is satan...

Criminy, everytime I go in there I come out shell shocked...

That's right you stay out of P&N, you hear me?!?

:p

This is the only thing I ever posted in P&N, and after a couple of choice comments I edited/deleted it and the thread was locked & deleted. I just thought it was funny. Maybe ATOT will laugh with me. :(

My P&N contribution - just some stupid T-shirt image that my friend emailed to me.

edit: I have to admit, my view towards P&N is this - I do not feel that I am adequately equipped either mentally or with enough up-to-date information to add anything relevant to the many threads. That said, I do check in from time to time just to read up on things and see some different viewpoints. But I doubt I will ever post there, unless miraculously my brain cells begin to multiply and I'm inbued with a sudden urge to state & argue my POVs. I respect the intelligence level in there too much to go in and fuddle it up.

You know what I love about P&N, that OT will never be able to duplicate? The ability to read many, many threads without stumbling across some guy who thinks he's funny and original by suggesting no one on AT (except him) ever gets laid. You just can't find that in OT, and I think it's well worth the price of having to deal with people who's first words in office, if they were ever elected, would probably be some phrase involving the words "concentration camps" :p

My P&N contribution

Yup Christian bashing that is a big component to P&N. Funny thing is read the post prior to election and the same authors after on both sides pretty humorous.

Filled with pricks who love to argue about the smallest of details. Life is to short for that shat!

See that's the thing... I guess it was taken as a 'bash' but I would never bash anyone's religion! That's useless - to each his own! I just thought it was a funny pic - nothing more. The moral of that post was, if you want to post something funny, do it on ATOT. Chances are the zanier senses of humour reside here anyway. And I learned my lesson.

By that same logic, OT is full of horny 14-year-old boys who will never get laid and think that arguments about the best place to defecate or pass gas is the height of philosophical debate. :roll:

Overgeneralization at its purest! You'd actually fit right in at P&N. :laugh:

Sorry I'm used to the normal P&N response.
