Here is an excellent description of what happened to our economy:



That clip made me chuckle.

My system administrator won't let me go to youtube.  Probably others out there in the same boat.  Any chance you can tell us cube prisoners what this is about?

I don't really know HT.  I don't tend to watch videos at work.  FOTD linked to a video with no explanation or discussion.  So Ed linked to a well known YouTube series where they blend random objects as an advertisement for a brand of blenders.  Then I linked to a totally unrelated to either of those video from SouthPark that made me chuckle.

Basically, the subtle message is:

DON'T POST LINKS WITHOUT ANY DISCUSSION or people won't take it seriously and simply respond with links with no discussion that probably have nothing to do with the initial one.  And the internet will smile.

Thanks for the explanation.  That's what I call subtle.

CF....ok. So,"what does it mean?"

It means the US of A is getting dwarfed.

What does what mean?  I don't click on videos with no explanation.  Generally, I don't watch videos during the day anyway.  The USA is getting dwarfed by what, who cares, and why?

Please do not take this the wrong way or believe I am in any way being mean-spirited towards you, but the only thing worse than being a jacka$$ is arguing with one. Point is, why are you wasting brain power by engaging that moron?

Mostly because I've been looking for an excuse to post that South Park video, my secondary reason is to kill time while on hold, and lastly for my own petty amusement.  But in this instance Ed started it, I was kinda hoping it turned into a thread of funny videos but no one else has joined in.

I'm guilty of feeding the trolls and I apologize.

Also, I'm not expending any brain power in this endeavor.  Rest assured.  I waste plenty of it, just not in this thread.

Trolls!  Sir, I take umbrage at that!  My seconds will call on yours.  What say...pistols at dawn?  I've been called many unkind things (I'm married, after all) but NEVER, sir, NEVER a troll!  We shall settle this on the field of honor.

I have a matched set of antique Softair pistols.  They can settle this unpleasantness quite nicely.  And no squealing like a girl this time!

Oh, and by the way, I did kinda start this.

Your Softair pistols are all fine and good...but will they blend?

Neither you nor FOTD are trolls, Ed W.  Your obvious intelligence and your presence here at TulsaNow has lifted the whole operation up a notch or two.  Thank you for raising the bar.

I thought the thread title would be more properly stated as DO YOU KNOW?

(just another random criticism of anything)

That was awesome, thank you.

While we're on the theme.
