I think everyone will agree that freedom is a good thing. We should have lots and lots of freedom. However, you can't always get away with doing anything you want if it bothers someone else. It's like the old saying goes, your freedom to play the accordion ends where I get in range to hit you with a pillow case filled with pool balls. Just because we like freedom doesn't mean that everything people do in the name of freedom should be free.

    Look, I don't know if this is exactly related to this article but, when I was in college, 9-11 happened. One day I ended up getting into an argument with this fucking bitch in my video class about how shitty songs and stuff that come out based on large tradgedies are often just that...shit.

    She was all "who are you to say what's art and what's not?"
    Everyone was all hung up on "If my shitty act or song doesn't go on, then the terrorists have truly won." It was just a way for starving artists to trot out their bullshit and put it on display.

    Anyways, I am sick of assholes doing shitty things and saying "it's a free country".

    It's a free country of assholes.

    Sorry for my first rant but, I can relate to the article in one way. I have a solution to people talking on their phones in movie theatres, and I know it works because I saw it happen.

    I was watching "Texas Chainsaw Massacre Remake" in theatres recently and this asshole got on his phone but, it was one of those person to person shits that works like a walkie talkie and beeps out loud everytime you talk.

    This shit went on for awhile and then something miraculous happened. Someone behind me got fed up with this dudes shit and started throwing change at him! At first he tried to act like he didn't notice and then he tried to act tough and started calling people out. Eventually he just shut the fuck up and got off the phone.

    I don't know what to say if the asshole is sitting behind you, though.

    Theose fuckers honl at everything on this damn city. They honk if the light turns red. They honk if there's trafiic (and there's always traffic). They honk if there's a car accident. They honk if it's raining. Ugh....

    I've got one addition to this (and this is definitely a game for today): if you do that thing at sporting events where you see the cameras filming something and so you stand behind the person being taped/interviewed and wave at the camera and smile like a fucking ass then you will be fined $100 on the spot. If you're on your cell phone while doing this so you can tell your friends to look for you on TV then the fine is quadrupled.

    doubles if you do it in a parking lot. Triples if you do it in the parking lot where you work.

    Belding, you tell that sumbitch he's got 0 more times to talk on that cell phone before you get up and put a boot in his eye. Unless you're at the 'black movie theater'. You don't want to incite a riot.

    Great article, but revenge is soooooo much better. How about this: Whenever a top 40 DJ plays "Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy" or "Who let the Dogs Out" you're allowed to hit him in the face with a tube sock filled with wood screws.

    Whenever a girl (not carrying a purse) you just met at a bar asks (i.e. tells) you to buy her a drink, you should get one free shot to throw it in her face.

    The only time you should be allowed to honk a car horn are for these four reasons:

    1) "The light is Green."
    2) "The Light is Red"
    3) "I Hate You."
    4) "This vehicle is equipped with a horn."

    The line it reminds me of:

    I think we should only get 3 honks a month on the car horn, because people honk the car horn too much. 3 honks, that's the limit. And then someone cuts you off, ffffft, you press your horn, nothing happens. You're like, "shit! I wish I wouldn't have seen Ricky on the sidewalk!"

    Ball's #2
    Who hasn't she?

    Ball game:
    Going slow in the fast lane. If the person behind you uses a honk to tell you to get out of the way, it dos not mean make a phone call, it means Get the Fuck out of the Way!

    For anyone peeling out in a parking lot. The fine doubles if you pull this shit at your work parking lot. No one is impressed with your souped up Chevrolet Sprint.

    And god help you if you're blasting crappy music while you're peeling out. Not only do you get a tax, but police will get 2 solid swats at your kneecaps.

    Tax motherfuckers who don't use turn signals. Tax motherfuckers who pull out on busy streets to make a left turn and block traffic going the other way. Tax people who can't seem to park between the two lines that make up a parking spot.

    This is why DeMarco needs to pay me for my work--so I can buy my tank and hit asshole drivers at will. Fuck it, I got the insurance.

    The fact that you know and can direct us to every article ever written on TPP no matter how tangential to the current one leads me to believe that you are some kind of TPP Savant.

    In all seriousness, since I'm new here, do you work for this web-site in some way?

    I miss Hedberg.
    If this were true the newspapers would look like this:

    "Congress Passes Asshole Tax"

    "Tom Cruise Files for Bankruptcy"

    "Red Sox Nation is now Below the Poverty Level"

    That article was the funniest shit ever. Well, those people need to be taxed for trying to be cool. I need to go back and read some of these older articles.

    Since I liked this one, I checked Scheck's profile. Since I'm a putz, my eyes immediately focused on an article titled, "Sexy, Sex-Filled Sexfest". So I read it and got a kick out of him kicking the reader in the nutsack.

    And then I checked out the comments because there weren't that many. Scheck got crushed before the board went on a tangent. And then I noticed something else.

    Fucking deuce. The article was posted in early October. And fucking deuce was still commenting. I think I returned in mid-October and have not seen him once. Because I'm galactically self-centered (in addition to being a putz), I simply must draw a connection. What an asshole.

    OK. I apologize. Just come back...asshole.

    See Spartan's cryptic message yesterday?

    Is he in trouble?

    Is he still employed?

    Is it gay to care?

    Nice work Scheck. "Three-egg bald eagle omelet" will be stolen routinely from now on, fantastic.

    Today's rule: end your next post with your final four picks.

    For TPP and old man's bracket: UNC, Georgetown, Memphis, UCLA

    For big $$ bracket: Tenn, Wisconsin, Memphis, UCLA

    UCLA wins the tournament.

    If the retards at work are bumping their white trash gangsta rap on full blast, and then peeling out of the lot in their '95 Honda Civic, then maybe you ought to quit working in the machine shop and find a respectable gig.

    That, or cave Eminem-lite's skull in with a brick.

    ...you're probably right, but they could be the guys from the mailroom.



    TN, KA, TX, Duke in the TPP & "big $$ bracket" with TN & TX in the final (A Sea of Orange). TX wins.

    suckit.

    Good point on the mailroom angle. But, if any of our mailroom, custodial, receptionist staff pulled that shit, they'd be out of work. No time for shenanigans here, unless you're surfing the TPP....

    Kansas, North Carolina, Texas and UCLA
    TX and NC in the final with NC running the table.

    Sorry Stiggs, but MSU doesn't get past Temple today.

    Obama was here yesterday. He stopped by my gym to shoot some hoops while in Pinehurst of all places. It was all filmed for Realsports. Apparently reinforcing stereotypes is high on his political agenda.
