Is this forum going the way of the vuelta?
The forum is dying out in general because of the flamers wo go around knocking crap out of people. So people just get fed up. I have come back on after 3 years a d I was just totally flamed out by numerous regular users. That is your answer- from Spain!!!

You were totally flamed because you were being an ass. Plus, alienator flames everyone.

it's exactly this type of flame/comment which highlights exactly what i said about flamers. So great, you guys convert the forums into your flamey little world- so go flame but take out your frustrations on your wife and kids if you can first.

nurul, you want some cheese with that whine? I personally love my wife and kids and wouldn't want to take out my frustrations on them when there are perfectly good people such as you to take it out on.

O.J. ordered to stand trial. It looks like the prosecutor has set it up so everyone else involved has a reason to point the finger at O.J. He's boned.

Okay, this question is really just to bump the thread...we can't let it die!!!

Topic for discussion: who is currently dreading their Thanksgiving plans?? As in who has to visit (or be visited by) the most dysfunctional family members?

(I realize this is an American holiday only, but perhaps some of you in other countries are already cringing whilst thinking of Christmas.... and before anyone calls me intolerant or insensitive or something, you can pick any winter holiday of your choosing)

I, for one, have to attend the Dysfunctional Family Redneck Extraganza which will require copious amounts of alcohol to endure (consumed on the one hour drive there -- pretending we don't drink is all part of the holiday fun ). My only comfort is that these people are not related to me by blood....

Happy Thanksgiving to my American friends...enjoy ponying up for gas this week!

I think its possible you may be in denial about being a redneck. It s very common for rednecks to think they're the only ones who are not a redneck amongst their redneck friends. Jeff Foxworthy of course has come up with a long self-questionaire that can help anyone determine their redneckedness.

According to him, you might be a redneck if:

> You mowed the front lawn and found three cars
> You think safe sex is a padded headboard
> Your huntin dawg had a litter of puupies in the living room and nobody noticed
> Your house still has the "WIDE LOAD" sign on the back
> Your sister is the third generation of women in your family to conceive as a result of an alien abduction
> You think Genitalia is an Italian airline
> If you can burp and say your name at the same time
> You think the last words to the Star Spangled Banner are "Gentlemen, start your engines"
> You've got more than one relative named Darryl.
> If you've ever had to scratch your sister's name out of a message that begins "For a good time call...."
> You take a load to the dump and bring back more than you took.
> That billboard that says "Say No To Crack" reminds you to pull up your jeans
> You go to your family reunions looking for a date
> Your senior prom had a daycare
> You've got more than three cousins named "Bubba"
> You've ever come home and found crime scene tape across your front porch

And there are many more here:

http://www.frontiernet.net/~tzuleger...rednecks.shtml

Though they seem to be focussed entirely/predominately on male rednecks.

As for Thanksgiving, I'm lucky to be able to spend it with friends rather than family.
