Besides, the audio quality of Sirius sucks, so it's a perfect fit for Stern.

The audio quality most certainly does not suck! What are you listening to?

lol, perfect audio quality for me, never have anything less than a full bar. I guess the trailer he lives in doesn't get very good reception.
 
Stern sounds incredibly clear. They must have boosted the BW on 100 and 101, because he sounds better than Jay Thomas on 103.

I never saw it. I don't know what the point would be anyway - all it would do is demonstrate to me that even the elderly can be childish trolls, and I already knew that.

You should learn to listen to the voices of age and experience. Orientals do that well. You could learn from them.
Age made you stupid, I think.

Listen to today's show. It's the best he's been in years.


BTW, he's never been an assmunch just for the sake of being an assmunch.
Exactly. He even told his staff not to swear just for the sake of swearing. He scolded Ralph and Sal when they swore today.
Good to hear, but it'll still be a while before I try Sirius out. Being three weeks out of college doesn't generally mean good things for the bank account 😉

I do, until the elderly person proves himself a fool.

BTW, most Asian people aren't fond of being called "Oriental."

Oriental means "of the east"! Go figure. You Asian?

He may be listening through an FM link. That would soften it a lot.

In response to your personal attack:

No, what it has made me is really good at recognizing stupidity in some youth. Mostly a reflection of inexperience with life in general. You can improve if you try. Stupidity is most often reflected in verbose dialog. While I don't remember any of yours, my money is in verbose! I'll do a search, but won't bother to report back - you already know!

Well, let me correct myself. You are not verbose! I think I am beginning to understand the term troll. Being a lifer with 22,743 posts and what appears to be a mean of three words per post, you are probably the only lifer that has posted only 68,235 typed words. I think "All Bs except one C." and "I've got a problem with subbers subbing the anime differently than the groups that did it first. Why change it if it's right? I used to think Lunar was good but now I prefer Chihiro's sub (even though the video quality is sub-par). " pretty much says it all.

Heinlein was one of my favorite authors when I was twelve.

Really.

Anyway, what I meant in my first post is that experience does not always correlate with wisdom. Second, you shouldn't stereotype so blatantly; I'm Oriental and quite obviously I don't fit that mold.

That's nice to know.

Brevity is equivalent to trolling? If that's not the point of this paragraph, then I don't know what is. My "All Bs except one C" reply was in a thread requesting that members post their grades; how should I have improved the quality of my response? And I really do not understand why you mentioned the latter post ("I've got a problem with..."). You must think that anybody who watches anime is immature.

Can anyone post a link to today's revelations show? I don't have newsgroup access at work, and I can't wait to hear who revealed what.



He only made five revelations today. :disgust:

The remaining revelations:

6. My buddy and I once ordered massage girls to our hotel room but they ripped us off and we were left staring at each other in our underwear.

7. I have pleasured myself with meat and vegetables.

8. I have a half sister I've never met and don't want to.

9. I've had cosmetic surgery.

10. A guy once blew his load on my chest.

11. I once had my stomach pump for alcohol poisoning and when I awoke an acquaintance of the same sex was fondling my genitals.


Here's today's show. :thumbsup:😎

 
Can someone link to TODAY's show? I only caught one revelation on my way to work (the disappointingly lame one about someone being ripped off by a hooker).

Thanks!

Great show today. Arties revelation was hilarious:laugh:

Someone link to it, damnit! I'm sure it's hosted on rapidshare or somewhere, but I don't feel at liberty to look at the Stern sites from work.
