Richard Evans always had good ones.

 

Richard is good, but I think Billy Parker is unbeatable. The guy never skips a beat.

 

Debatable. Humor is subjective, much like beauty.

 

Naomi Watts > Monica Bellucci

Much like actors in Hollywood, Robojo may be an , but he sure can be entertaining:

 

Robojo:

Everything I buy raw gets listed raw.

Everything I buy slabbed gets listed slabbed.

No exceptions.

 

 

Wow, um, that's pretty, um...deep? (shrug)

 

:roflmao:

 

The followup to that is (paraphrased):

 

"I bought that slabbed CGC 7.5 as a 9.4 raw so I'm selling it as a 9.4 raw."

"...Being on the wrong side of right...", and the the explanation.

 

My favorite as well:

 

Yea, but he's on "the wrong side of right". Someone can be 100% right about something and still be wrong. If I hit a person in a crosswalk with my car then I am wrong and they are right, but they are on "the wrong side of right".-OldGuy 11/09/2006

In the early days on these threads there use to be a guy that posted. You couldn't tell what he was talking about. Everything he wrote made no sence. I wish I could remember who that was or even a line of his.

 

 

Luxcorp ?

He typically drops in on a drug induced cloud-of-ignorance. (pun intended.) , then quickly flames out and is subsequently banned until a new drug induced reincarnation appears one evening.

 

hm ....Then again , could be Paratrooper. :baiting:

 

Beer doesn't cause me to go into inane, incomprehensible ramblings. Beer causes me to go into witty rants.

 

This phenomena is best explain with the "Buffalo theory" often inaccurately attributed to Cliff Clavin of Cheers:

 

"Well you see, Norm, it's like this... A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo and when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members. In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Now, as we know, excessive drinking of alcohol kills brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. And that, Norm, is why you always feel smarter after a few beers."

Most likely scenario is that it is some Internet wisdom that has bounced around and soulds like something Cliff would say and then gets attributed to him. No one can seem to find the episode even though many are sure they heard him say it. I noted it mainly to avoid someone dinging me for mis-attribution.

 

The "Wear Sunscreen" column by a Chicago writer somehow got turned around in a similar way and was described by most as a Kurt Vonnegut graduation speech - before becoming a semi-hit song.
