athlon xp 2800 - Ghz? Thanks!
He has little respect for his folks too, and that's a good thing? typical.
Do you tell your dad when he's mistaken that he's on crack? don't bother answering................ "Ruel Smith" wrote in message ... On the "crack" crack, let me just say that when I first read that post, I tho't, ....."YES!" Go figure.... ;~D May I further say that the person who was offended by that comment....well, maybe they SHOULD be on crack! (Or valium). Okay, nuff said on that topic. Thanks! There you go... The OP understood it wasn't offensive in nature. Kudos! Glad you've gotten everything straightened out, BTW. (oops...more slang? Someone else my get offended!) |

IMHO s/"to say"/"by" It's not meant to get a laugh or entertain. It doesn't. It's just everyday slang jargon used by millions. Population of the world = ?(???,???,???) Ratio billion:million = ?(???):? Percentage of people who use that phrase = .?% You've never heard anyone tell you or someone else "you're on crack..."? never used the stuff. I'm almost 37, have a college education, was formerly a beginning computer programmer, before the dot-com crash and my subsequent layoff, and am not ignorant by any degree or young enough that I have this slacker attitude as you suggest. I'm not even in the same ballpark as the person you've obviously imagined me as being. "I'm unemployed and middle-aged" would've been sufficient descriptive though how that's supposed to make a difference is beyond me. And I could be wrong, but isn't that a little too old to have used/be using crack ? As far as crack, if you don't know what it is, since it's all over the television, then you've been hiding in a cave. And, wakeup...crack's used everywhere, in every major city. ? See above "Population Percentage" comment. Again, it's a commonly used phrase that no one I've ever met has ever been offended by until now. You people sound like a bunch of sensitive sissies. Suck it up and get over it! (pssst: now I am being offensive...) figures; I don't find that phrase offensive; inappropriate perhaps, but not offensive. Speaking of not funny... Was this meant to be entertaining? It was plain goofy and completely void of anything substantial. Anyway, apparently the OP thought it was alright. I guess I don't need your permission... |
