not much else worth watching, dont think I have even looked at reg network type tv in ages ....nothing of interest to me on them, ever.

dont read newspapers, they make me sneeze (and you can get the info on the internet now for free)
I watch Discovery, Travel, History, History Int, Nat Geo and Science Channel and sportssssssssss!!!

Something about repeat shows of Ground Hog Day on the weather channel
kind of makes sense.

He had the ball pinned against the ground, in most levels that is called control of the ball, he may not of had his hands on the sides of the ball but they were on the top and he used it to get up, therefore he traveled. The hustle, yes it is there and was great to see as normally you don't, but still, he traveled.

Ummm 24 anyone? Series finale setup for a movie? I think so! Gonna miss that show... Need to watch the season finale of Chuck tomorrow on Hulu at some point...

I like groundhogs day too, but NOT on the channel that was supposed to show me what my weather is like---instead I got 6 hours of movies .....not what I expect to see when I want to know what its going to be like for the rest of the day/week etc....(and it was a pretty bad storm that day so I was wondering if where I was headed was ok---never found out from that silly station!)

or cltv ....SUPPOSEDly news 24h....yet at the weeeee hours of the morning is, you guessed it, paid advertising!!! and or they are showing sports (my mom-in-law complains about that one---how I know)...they need to change their slogan to something like 'news sometimes when we feel like showing you the repeat of what we showed last hour--allday.'.

I gave up on things like headline news....it rarely HAS anything worthy of the headline title.
hubby played with the cable last night, now we barely have any signal (not that it was good before),......so I guess we need to get a new cable ---and I need to move that huge pile of stuffed animals off the futon so I can get to the wall where the cable attaches (the pile is almost ceiling high, and there really is no other place for them)....sounds like a weekend of .....

That is why during the summer I pretty much just don't watch TV. It's actually fantastically relaxing. Though this summer I will watch the World Cup games as much as I can. That will be nice though.

Rick Rolling is so last year. Oh and I believe that it was posted that rick rolls in threads outside the OTA would get you a ban. Same with the Cool Story Bro pictures. And really? You went way back to find that? I haven't done helpful hints in a LONG time.

Got nothing better to do I've been Banned from GWIIG for "trolling" when I posted a GW Rick Roll. Thought it was funny but I guess the Admin dosen't like me since this is the 2nd time with in a week to get Banned for Trolling. It's fine though. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8c33...eature=related it's pretty well done looking for one for other MMOs.

I wish last night had been pizza night. Instead it was chicken tender night... Oh well whatever. Here is to hoping for better food tonight.

I don't think it matters what kind of rick roll it is since it really is trolling tbh. So yes it is unfortunate that you got banned but follow the rules and it won't happen. Stay on topic in game discussions especially.

The Subtle Art of Trolling

"The well-constructed troll is a post that induces lots of newbies and flamers to make themselves look even more clueless than they already do, while subtly conveying to the more savvy and experienced that it is in fact a deliberate troll."

mice dont make good trolls...so I dont do it. I have been able to play devils advocate on several threads a LONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNG time ago---before I learned the ways of the 'force'......

now I shoot trolls. (ok ban them if I find them)....

I was banned once apparently. A few years ago there was a post full of p0rn that was up for a whole day. We had had issues like that before and had been told to report them asap. I reported the thread a few times but people just kept posting in it. So eventually I posted something along the lines of "Stop posting and let this thread fall to the next page" Well that post was technically against the rules, even though it had good intentions, so a moderator, who will go unnamed, rightfully banned me because I did post in the thread. The ban was quickly turned over by an admin (I say quickly because I didn't know about it for a few months) because, I assume, it was a post with good intentions.

Anyways, that's my story. I have technically been banned once even if it was for a short time.
