The OFFICIAL "I hate OFFICIAL topics" Topic!

[WhipSmartBanky]

Have fun!

[JimmieMac]

Shhhhh....use your indoor voice.

[PsyClerk]

I'm officially not posting on it, dammit.

[eldad9]

As I just posted in the suggestion board, it shouldn't be possible for non-moderators to post subjects containing the word "official".

I think he's making fun of you.

Thanks for making my day with the most ignorant post ever!

[VelvetHammer]

Yeah. It's losing its effect. Like how "Limited Edition" is meaningless nowadays.

Thank You Halo X-Box!

But what oh what will we do when we want to post about the new "Official" Nintendo Memory Cards?

Must we circumvent the word block by using say: Orificial?

[PsyClerk]

But then what will all the kids do after school? Won't someone think of the children?!

Well my friend, you've done it. Outdid yourself in less than 10 minutes. I applaud your complete lack of knowledge of anything going on around you.

[x0thedeadzone0x]

Is this supposed to be some kind of competition with my off-topic topic?

[WhipSmartBanky]

Nah, it doesn't have JSweeney singing in it.

Yet...

Oh, well first of all, JS was singing only briefly in off-topic, it was Nintendo Fangirl's thread was where it was at.
Secondly, JS will never join you and your "official" topic :P lol jp WSB
At least not that I know of.. you will be loyal to us off-topic topicers.. won't you?...

[Wshakspear]

i think the donkey in your bathtub has finally gotten to you

The tail tickles

[JSweeney]

I just can't resist a command performance.
From the Flipper theme song.

Cause it's official, official, dumber than everything,
What did you expect to see, when posted by WhipSmart Banky?
And we know official, is a word ripe for plunder,
Which makes you wonder when Fingy or Punqsux we'll see!

Everyone loves when a pointless song I will sing,
Almost as much as when Banky posts a ZING,
Post stating the obvious will appear,
And how they laugh when that poster is near!

Cause it's official, official, dumber than everything
See WShakespear and karma talk about a donkey,
And we know official, just makes your head hurt and make you wonder,
What kind of thread you will see!

When you're standing in a hole with a noose around you're neck, common knowledge would tell you to stop digging.

I'm not dumb, just (it would seem) ignorant - which can be easily fixed by telling me whatever it is that I am ignorant of.

So? what is it?

Well I guess I will be the one to spoil the fun. The entire thread was made in jest of your rediculous post. You, however, thought Banky was agreeing with you and thus you were made to look the fool.

If you think my suggestion is ridiculous, why not just reply to it?

[SneakyPenguin]

im in a song! with a donkey...! :)

So is my finger!

In the song, not the donkey.

We all know about your old job in Tijuanna as well, Penguin.

[SneakyPenguin]

Sorry, double post.

Damn bittorrent.

[punqsux]

where's the fun in that?

[Mr Unoriginal]

If you think my suggestion is ridiculous, why not just reply to it?

No, no. I think you missed the point...again. Your ignorance lies in your total lack of ability to detect sarcasm or any form of good-humoredness.

[eldad9]

Inability to detect sarcasm is not ignorance. It seems you're ignorant about that.

And on text-based forums, sarcasm cannot be detected by a tone of voice. It can be detected in context, which was missing in your case, or by content, which was also missing since it was possible your post was caused by the same one that caused mine.

You know, next time I see somebody making a mistake, instead of letting them know what it is, I'll just tell them they're wrong and make fun off them, but I won't tell them what they're wrong about. Maybe I'll even wait a few days so that they have no clue why I'm making fun of them - that would just be so awesomely productive. And sometimes I'll make fun of them for no reason at all, just to keep them on their toes - not that they'll be able to tell the difference.

[Mr Unoriginal]

Why is it that everyone detected the sarcasm but you?

[JSweeney]

:-({|=

[bignick]

We all know about your old job in Tijuanna as well, Penguin.

Actually, there is a donkey show in Tijuana. Its a coupla of chicks with a donkey for an hour. The cab driver told me and a friend about it. We passed.

Because they know what a jerk you are, and I didn't?

i think you forgot to include "and weve regretted it ever since".

Lies! There is no way you can be an active member of this community and now know what a jerk i am.

"Are you being sarcastic?"

"I dont even know anymore..."

that sounds about right, actually.

Sure there is, stupid:

Read messages, and respond to them as you see fit. Turn sigs off. Reply to content, not individuals. Do not care - or even read - who posts any given message.

This has the downside of having to treat everybody with a minimal degree of respect. Which was warranted - until now.

[Mr Unoriginal]

Uh oh. Are you out to get me?

It's been implied but, uh...you ARE aware of the several hundred other posters on CAG that do this exact same thing?

Welcome to the fold!

[eldad9]

Well then, they're jerks too.

The way I see it, my choices are:

* start paying attention to who posts what (too much trouble)
* ignore jerks
* never post

I did try to ignore jerks so far, but it doesn't seem to work any more. Perhaps option 3 would be more satisfactory.

Works for me.

[Steggy]

ahhh i hate threads liek these. They make my brain hurt thinking.

[eldad9]

Hey, somebody just asked for recommendations on the best PS 1 games. Why don't you go suggest the worst titles for that system? Seems like a perfect use of your time.

C'mon. There is no need to get so bent out of shape. I'm pretty sure everyone thought that you had caught on to the joke after a short time, and that you were just playing along with them after that.

Oh and you've heard of donkey shows, but have any of you ever heard of the donkey punch?

[JSweeney]

Helpful hint for the day: When you believe that more people than normal are acting like jerks and disrespecting you, look at your own actions first.
People tend to respond to post in a similar demeanor as the person who originally posted.

[eldad9]

Statistics suggest that "more people than normal are acting like jerks" almost half the time.

Did you know that almost half the people are below average?

[PsyClerk]

I believe JimmieMac referenced the donkey punch not too long ago.

Did you know that trying to feign a false sense of superiority bothers people to no end?

I'll start testing option 3 right now. I'll begin with this topic, and expand it as necessary.

Congrats - now you're a true Cheap Ass Gamer! (I know that others have made posts in this vein...but I thought of it before I read those posts, damn it!)

That's right...it should be a REAL sense of superiority, much like JSweeney's. :D

Since the thread has devolved into the rest of CAG mocking you, maybe that's the best choice. That won't necessarily stop us from making fun of you, though...you just won't know if we do it or not.

What, does Mother Nature officially approve it?
How does that work?

That's a very good question. I wonder if it involves fingering your asshole. That's how I made this thread official.
