Lifted from another site, put here to illustrate that we are not at all unusual here on Flyertalk.

Have a good weekend all.

Stewart.

http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif LOL - very good

No it isn't!

What a stupid topic anyway! Are you just tyring to pad your post count?

http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif

http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif That's even better! Thanks so much.

It's his right to post this, isn't it!?!

(next....)

http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

No it isn't!!

Yuh HUH!

Do a search, stupid

http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

(on to number 10...)

'Stupid' is surely a TOS violation.

Where are the moderators here? (Oops, maybe that is a question for another thread!) http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif

OFF TOPIC for Community... http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

The above answers are all Rubbish!

What was the original Question? I think it has been answered.

I think it's time someone apologized.

Okay, I apologize.

http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/rolleyes.gif

(sorry, couldn't come up with a witty answer http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif )

Hey Guys, Ya'll Calm down Now, OK.

I hereby request the Moderators lock this vicious, evil thread.

Stewart, I'm ashamed of you. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/tongue.gif

As a Texan, I find this offensive.

It's y'all... not ya'll.

I request that you edit your post.

Raaaaannnnddddyyyyyyy.... do something!

Chex: stop whining. This substantial argument has to be fought out until it dies a natural death.

Mizu- I would have appreciated it if you contacted me via personal email...

Techgirl, I resent the veiled references to me in your post, which I request you go back and edit



[This message has been edited by mashav (edited 03-25-2002).]

Your personal attacks on me, mashav, are not appreciated.

I see that you went back and edited your post, however, before anyone could see the heinous thing you said.

Several people have e-mailed me privately to tell me I'm right. Unfortunately they are afraid to post on this thread for fear that they too will be flamed.

This is off topic, IMHO. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/rolleyes.gif

I've sort of lost count, but:

16. This thread sucks!

<--- has Avis free day coupon or DL drink coupon to trade for UA SWU exp 3/31/03.

Let's work out something mutually beneficial.

http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif LMAO

SCMM- thank you, good post!

I couldn't tell at one point if these people were joking or serious!? ("take it outside" ) Could be fun. Can we watch? LOL

Let's please keep in mind the thousands that read these posts, yes, including airline employees. There is an airline employee on here who helped me out, so this thing has already paid off... I don't mind a little bit of humour, here and there... Makes the whole thing doable...

Who asked you emailman? What right do you have to make such baseless allegations? Where is your evidence? If you edit out your thoughtless nonsense, I will edit mine, but I will not edit mine unless you edit yours, and I reserve my right to keep repeating this stupid mantra for 200 posts in 16 Forums.

No-one who has ever asked me to apologize via email has seen me do it yet. Or something like that. I am now very upset and confused and I will take my tablet and lie down for a while. I'll take 2 tablets just to be on the safe side.

@@ Worldtraveler36, just who are you calling THESE PEOPLE?

You know name calling is a violation of something here... I forgot what, but just as well, a violation.

Again, I apologize.

It appears I am not liked here. I am going to edit all of my posts and never come back (unless it is under another handle.)

So sorry Southern Belle, wouldn't want to mess with you, LOL. My bro is marrying a Southern Belle and he's done alright, so, wouldn't want to tick you off... http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

However, if there is a penalty for TOS!? I am hoping that it will not involve Southwest. Please!!! anything but Southwest... LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

>>> cute! very cute! On a serious note, that person, whoever they were, hmmmmm, did all that for several reasons to get the attention of certain people and to make a point. It worked! AND THEN SOME! Oh no! caps!!! ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Seriously, we need to treat people with respect as people are leaving different boards, if not F/T altogether, but quietly.
That is a loss to us that is unfortunate and one that I don't care for.

Back to goofing off, thank you... http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

AAAH! Satire, the humour of Kings.

But I must appeal for calm all round!!!!


Stewart.

SCCM. What gives you the right to appeal for calm all round? Just because you started this stupid thread gives you NO rights. You are insulting our intelligence here. Please withdraw your appeal, apologise for it, edit it out just to safe, and write in pen 500 times: "I will not appeal for calm ever again".

Scan and save your finished work, and go trade it on the Coupon Connection. There is a great guy there who will quickly come up with a "Mutually Beneficial" trade offer to you for it - you can rest assured. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif

I guess this is the point where I post an opinion.
