pretzels.



No, the whole quote in general just sounds disrespectful. Not to mention it sounds a bit immature. I've probably said something like this before.. Like when I was in the 3rd grade..

I'm not saying you were being disrespectful to the mods. It was just pointless to post that in the middle of the discussion that was going on. Why post if you can't add any substance to a topic? Unless you're specifically trying to piss someone off just by saying pretzels again.. But why would you want to do that??

Listen man, i honsetly appreciate what your trying to say, and you definatley have issues with me, i can see that. Yet, why on earth do you need to phrase your comment like that?

In 3rd grade i might of learned 2 wrongs don't make a right. I was a damn good 3rd grader btw. I'm very proud of myself. Thanks for the explanation on when and how to post, duly noted.

I thought mjg was trying to lighten the mood a bit with some joking.
Sometimes a light hearted moment can change the direction of a thread for the better.
I see this time, it may have taken the thread for an ugly turn.

Lighten up people!!!!!!

Probably because your post really did come across like that.

Yeah, maybe so.. But it seemed very ill-timed.. Especially looking at some other threads about this pretzel deal..

And no, I don't have any issues with you. I'm here to have fun just like everyone else. But your comment seemed very out of place. Especially in a thread started by a moderator. Sort of seems like a slap in the face to me. I mean if the CEO of a large company passed down new rule of conduct for all the employees of that company I dare say someone in the company would immediately poke fun at the CEO just because they didn't like his rule.

Granted I know we aren't obliged to be here, and no ones job is at stake. Just seemed a little ill timed for the discussion at hand.

BTW, why only inane polls... can we do something about inane threads as well? I mean the ones that have no topic of *any* importance, other than being a complete joke (these are very obvious, nobody would mistake them otherwise). Kills the signal to noise ratio around here.

What is with you and signal to noise ratio? Do you want Head-Fi to be nothing but people stating a narrow range of facts with no humor or entertainment value? I mean, what's with your constant condescending attitude toward others that I see all the time? And who's job is it to determine what's important and what isn't? It's awfully pretentious, that's for sure.

I'm sure you'll just plop me on your ignore list along with half the board, but try to think about what you are saying and the way you are stating it before you post things like this...

And to keep this (ir)relevant, more pretzels!

I see no (zero, none, nada, zilch) humor or entertainment value in the endless "pretzel" spams going on around here. Only a very small number of people do see value in them (countable on one hand), and obviously nobody can explain what's so funny about pretzels... because there's nothing.

Oh please, just because you don't find something amusing doesn't that others don't, and you don't have to kill it for them just because of that.

Lighten up man, try relaxing and having a little fun. It is the members' lounge after all.

There's no joke to get, and this forum is filled with Beavis's/Buttheads, that much is certain.

It's a community, if you don't want to be a part of it then leave. This isn't your forum, it's Jude's, and just because you disagree with somebody and don't want to accept the opinions of other members doesn't mean you get to denounce them in every post.
