Am I the only one who finds the Subway commercials pevvy?

[BeachBaby]

I mean, seriously - "Five dollar footlongs".

FOOTLONG.

Okay - I'm done.

[Pierre.Suave]

1. have you been dreaming about me again?

:rofl:

[BeachBaby]

3. :spank:

There's just something about this commercial - singing about the footlong. Gooooooooohoohoohood lord.

It's bordering on being a tease.

[TZ]

2. .

:popcorn:
i see that ny resolution has gone belly up...:P

[BeachBaby]

5. Do I even want to know about this resolution?

:scared: :rofl:

[TZ]

7. yours not MINE

something about no more lounge pevity...O8)

[BeachBaby]

11. Resolutions were made to be broken.

Don't ya think? :P

[Dr. Strange]

6. Resolution?

JGD made a resolution to stop posting Subway threads?

[BeachBaby]

8. I have no idea what she's talking about.

This could be interesting.

[TZ]

9. ha ha

no she made a resolution which said no more lounge pevity which flvegan wisely commented would be broken before that thread hit page two...:)

[BeachBaby]

13. I believe that flannibal is wrong.

He can't be right about everything. Sheesh.

[JVS]

4. I think this reveals a lot more about you than it does about Subway's™ commercials

[fudge stripe cookays]

22. That....

she's 14?

[BeachBaby]

24. That's nice.

:eyes:

[fudge stripe cookays]

30. look out its teh lounge police!!!

oh noes, people has different senses of humor!!! oh noes, its not the same as it was 7 years ago...oh noes CHANGE HAPPENS...
you know, if you don't like something don't click-hide thread..what is the purpose of going into a fun thread to be rude and NASTY to people. If anyone is acting childishly its YOU AND YOUR WHINY LOUNGE PURISTS.
you should make like a banana and split.

on edit: never thought I would hear DEMOCRATS whining about the good ol days like 80 year old conservatives.

[BeachBaby]

32. "......80 year old conservatives".

Bwhahahahahaha......funny you said that. I was thinking of Barbara Bush. :rofl:

[madinmaryland]

34. Get off my lawn, Snyder!!!

:rofl:

[fudge stripe cookays]

38. Change is not always for the better.

When half the founding members of the lounge leave because they're disgusted by what passes for humor from people who never matured past 8th grade, that's not BETTER.

Banana...split...I get it. Thanks for making my point.

[TZ]

42. and calling people douchebags is SOOOO mature

btw, if someone said to me in real life what you said here, I'd make my point in a much more direct way.
oh and for someone who thinks that 90 percent of members of this site should be tombstoned I wouldn't talk honey. Its snobs like you that give the party a bad name...

[madinmaryland]

46. I assume you are referring to the lounge of four or five years ago.

Absolutely pevish and inane. God, how it has improved!

[asthmaticeog]

60. Your defense against an accusation of childishness is ""Make like a banana and split?"

:applause:

[TZ]

64. would you prefer..fopb

I was being polite. WHAT i really want to say is how hard is it to click hide thread.

[asthmaticeog]

go ahead, respond, I dare you...

[sniffa]

86. ooh, non-whipped tough guy

:thumbsup:

[Pierre.Suave]

88. yeah

non-whipped, remember that.

[sniffa]

89. Shouldn't you be studying for your "medical school" classes?

[Pierre.Suave]

90. I can take a little time out on a Sunday afternoon

to read DU

edit: What community college are you and your wife attending again?

[sniffa]

91. WIT and UMB

You shouldn't be distracting yourself here when "medical school" is calling.

[Pierre.Suave]

92. lol

:rofl:

[sniffa]

95. Lulz

If "medical school" doesn't work out for you you can always go back to the "USMC".

:rofl:

[bicentennial_baby]

94. Ah, community college as a slam...That's mighty progressive of you Jason

I attend a University, but also graduated from a CC in 2006. He graduated from University almost 10 years ago. But don't let that detract from your idiotic "insults". Please, do go on.

[sniffa]

97. Ssssh

We can't compete with his life he wish he had.

*whip*

ps: To be fair I am indeed back in school (nights) for a post degree in my field.

[TZ]

35. exactly n/t

[fudge stripe cookays]

41. You know what?

Yep.

[TZ]

51. you know

you REALLY make a point about how some liberals are really intolerant,elitist snobs who live down to stereotype. and thats the truth. don't care if this gets deleted. some people need to have their bullshit called on.

[Sheets of Easter]

39. I'd back you up, but I have everyone who uses the word "pev" on perma-ignore.

[fudge stripe cookays]

40. How about...

oh noes?

[Sheets of Easter]

44. That is the next level.

It's what I refer to as Sandbox's Heirarchy of Peeves. I am still on pev. Next is "oh noes." Once you've made it up to "kitteh," it's pretty hopeless. :)

[TZ]

47. oh noes, I ez a pev with kittehs.

have me ts'd right fucking now..clearly I'm a danger to society.

[Sheets of Easter]

49. I feel whomever Ignored is, is making my point for me.

[Pierre.Suave]

80. Does being the king of your sandbox make you feel good?

a question though, how old were the kids you beat up to be the king of that sandbox?

or did they kick your ass and you went home crying to make your own sandbox and declared yourself the king?

[TZ]

45. awww teh little girl

can't handle mockery

btw, JGD has every right to go to the mods for the nasty things you called her.

[fudge stripe cookays]

50. I asked if she was 14.

Real nasty.

[TZ]

52. and then you called her a douchebag

check your link.

[fudge stripe cookays]

54. I didn't call her a douchebag.

I posted a link where I called others douchebags. Big difference.

[TZ]

58. no you posted it as an example of douchebaggery

and you posted it to HER. you called her out. you called her a douchebag.
AND WHY if this bothers you so much do you come in here and INSULT instead of putting the thread on hide thread.
YOU are the childish whiny one.
or you could put her ignore. but I guess clicking a button is just to damn hard for you, eh?

[fudge stripe cookays]

66. If I put every thread in the lounge on Ignore...

There'd be nothing left to read. Genius.

[madinmaryland]

69. Then why even bother coming into the lounge?

:shrug:

[fudge stripe cookays]

71. I keep asking myself the same thing. n/t

[madinmaryland]

76. Maybe you should just save yourself the angst of coming to the lounge.

It's not going to change and has not change. I'm sure you recall the stories from the DU'er who enjoyed pissing off of his deck, and how everyone in the lounge thought it was the funniest thing. That was over four years ago.

Seriously, either ignore the lounge or at least the posts that you don't like. Commenting on them is only going to draw mockery (and rightly so) for trying to police what people post. If you have not figured it out people have different senses of humor, which may not jibe with what yours is. As long as it is not against the rules as set up by DU, then it's allowed and deal with it.

[Dr. Strange]

96. I don't think they consider it angst.

I think they're getting off on stirring shit.

Which is stupid, because that's what the Sports Forum is for. :hide:

[TZ]

105. DuStrange for the win!

thanks buddy...:rofl:

[madinmaryland]

107. Dude! That's what GD and GD:Pffth are for!!

:rofl:

[TZ]

70. and maybe the lounge would be a nicer place.

you know maybe this place isn't for you if all you want to do is go around and complain about other peoples sense of humor.
not very tolerant. as i said before, i've never met dems before that whine about the good ol days and can't handle other people liking different things. I would expect that at ANOTHER site however

you are not all that bright are you?

[bicentennial_baby]

48. Dear lord, I hate that "word"

Ugh.

If you've got a button, she'll press it just to do it.

Ah, the memories. ;)

[TZ]

63. oh thanks for the ad hom agreement

I really enjoy being compared to a psycho stalking bitch. when its someone ELSE who is disrupting this thread.
please tell me how calling JGD a douchebag is at all mature

[fudge stripe cookays]

68. Ahh...

NOW you want to be mature. :eyes:

[TZ]

73. pot meet kettle

you have called JGD names and me names in this thread. disruption thy name is.....
oh btw..BYE.

[BeachBaby]

57. Who is "she"?

[TZ]

61. no i'm calling you out on your bullshit

you are the one INSULTING PEOPLE.

[JVS]

53. How did you post in this thread then? Shouldn't you have JGD in ignore for using pevvy?

[Sheets of Easter]

59. Acting!

Actually, I needed to make my point first.

[BeachBaby]

62. Yes, because someone with the word "sandbox" in their name

surely has a point that can't be missed.

[TZ]

65. what point

that I'm a psycho bitch because I have a problem with someone calling JGD A DOUCHEBAG
its the ones that are calling us immature that are acting like I'd say babies but most children are not nearly as nasty as the disruptors in this thread.

They even hold out their hands like, Omg thats hugh!!!

17. Yes! That's exactly it!

Almost waving it in our faces. Or something. :P

[jobycom]

12. You want cheapie-cheapie?

[TreasonousBastard]

14. It's the way they draw out the...

"looooooong" to porn music.

(and that mine'll cost ya more than five bucks)

[BeachBaby]

18. OMG - you're right!

It's not just the word, it's the music too!

Cheap porn music.

I wonder if Subway has ALOT of disappointed customers.

[Fearless]

15. That reminds me...

Maude: Neddy, I've had about all I can take of Homer Simpson's
torso. I'll get some hot dogs.
Ned: No foot-longs!
Maude: I know, they make you uncomfortable.

goes for the food)

[Jamastiene]

It's my favorite. :think: Er...maybe it IS pevvy.

19. I go there every Wednesday.

I guess their subliminal message worked on me. Like a charm. :rofl: :hi:

20. Admit it, you've just got the hots for Jared.

But there ARE construction workers. Hubba. :P

36. Sad thing is that I'd actually like a product like that

[bridgit]

37. I was involved with a design group in the city maybe 8-9 months ago...

It was one of the strangest sets of image controls and product placements and, well...enhancements. Very smart data people with heart rate & retina scan software & systems. Pills, yes. Candy bars, yes. Resume skills & job interview services, yes. But all nondescript, no brand names but otherwise known items placed within erotic, highly sexualized contexts.

Over lunch it became our opinion, my husband's and mine; that they were trying to determine the parameter of where sexualized commercial content is to be introduced without inviting Puritan backlash. While I've never shown up for a job interview dressed in studded, black leather S&M maybe it is time for America to lighten up = Uncle Muscle's Hour? Oh really, here's hoping the best is yet to come cause I've had enough of the football through the tire hanging from a rope tied to a mighty tree branch shtick

Only the very best of the major restaurant chains can start a flamewar.

[JVS]

75. flvegan, your comment isn't amusing to me.

YOU SUCK! You lame elephant rimming asswipe! Things were better long ago, and funnier.

[Dr. Strange]

82. Heh, you said "long."

You're a Phev.*

*Phev is the new pev, so you avoid being on Ignore lists.

[BeachBaby]

99. "Phev"? Or "Fhev".

I think we should discuss this pressing issue before any final decisions are made.

[Dr. Strange]

104. Fhev looks too much like Favre.

Any mention of Favre is a deal-killer.

[BeachBaby]

109. Alright. You got me there.

"Phev" it is.

[BeachBaby]

98. I'm feeling the love in here.

I really am.

[JVS]

101. evidently your discussion of Subway was just too much for the lounge to handle.

I

[BeachBaby]

111. I should have stuck with Quiznos.

[MilesColtrane]

74. Whenever you hear the jingle...

...just clean it up in your mind.

Change it to "five dollar...12-inch, spicy, hot meat (sandwich)".

That should make it all better.

[BeachBaby]

Oh yeah - that took the naughty thoughts right out of my head. :P

[Odin2005]

93. Get your mind out of the gutter!

:rofl:

[Zuiderelle]

103. This is some thread. Filled with some of my favorite people and whole load of ignoreds.

[BeachBaby]

108. Well, I tried to make something light-hearted and funny

for people to talk about, but it seems that there are quite a few DUers who can't appreciate any other kind of humor but their own.

And they can't just ignore the thread - they have to hijack it by hurling insults in every direction. I feel sorry for them that their lives are so boring, that they need to bash other DUers to make their lives more exciting.

It's a damned shame.

[Dr. Strange]

113. On the bright side...

you had someone attempt to Walt Starr themselves in one of your threads. Not many DUers can say that.

[Zuiderelle]

116. Well it certainly has become a thread to talk about.

I never bother posting in the Lounge much anymore myself. I think some people just get tired of seeing this place go down the tubes. I can understand some longer-time DUers being frustrated about it. The lounge has taken on a sort of nonsensical chat room dynamic. There was a thread posted here a while back that described the decline pretty well. Looks like it was linked in a post above.

[TZ]

117. does that give them the right to jump into people's threads

and be completely nasty unprovoked?
and according to some old time loungers here...that whole down the tubes idea is not something everyone agrees on...
things change. people have different senses of humor. there are ways to avoid things you don't like. people can start threads on stuff they like..no one is stopping them.

probably the best reply on this thread--
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=8401329&mesg_id=8402984

[BeachBaby]

118. "....seeing this place go down the tubes" is a matter of opinion,

don't you think?

If people truly feel that way, then why do they keep coming back?

There are many places where I loved to spend my time, through the years - but over time, the establishments changed; so I stopped visiting them. Those places simply weren't my cup of tea anymore. No big deal. Change is inevitable in all areas of life.

I was called out today for my personal brand of humor, PF. I find that my being implicated as being immature, is immature in and of itself.

The "ignore thread" feature was created for a reason - but it seems that a few people here would rather attempt to embarrass and humiliate others by attacking their character, instead of taking the high road and clicking on "ignore thread".

I feel sorry for them, that they think so little of themselves, that they have to attack others to make themselves feel better.

[bicentennial_baby]

119. Did you get my PM?

:)

[BeachBaby]

121. I sure did, baby.

Thanks, love. :hug:

[JVS]

122. BTW, I had no idea that my reply to your OP would be the start of such an awful subthread

I was merely making light of the fact that you have a smutty mind ;-)

[BeachBaby]

124. Well heck - I thought you already knew that.

You were trying to get me to put my hand down your pants the other night at the bar. :P :hug:

[madinmaryland]

120. Yes, I did post that.

Thank the stars that pompous fellow has decided to move on.

I've been here almost five years, and the lounge is no different (except for the players) than it was when I joined. Hell, I remember some DU'ers who thought a DU'er who pissed off his porch was extremely funny. And if it is "going down the tubes" then what is it you expect of the lounge??

:shrug:

[sniffa]

123. Heh

I thought most people didn't find it too amusing.

[Zuiderelle]

125. Yeah, that was pretty funny.

I remember that. Good times.

115. Maybe it's a play on that joke from Roseanne's stand-up, "Only a man *could* have invented maps...

"And come up with a scale where 1" equals a mile." ;)
