Huh.

I'd take that course.

Yeah but I guess Pete was like 'Who's ever gonna employ someone who took a course on the history of CTs?' before going on to opt for the Early History of Northern Laos.

@Bullitt68 (great work in the Peterson thread, really enjoyed your work)

 

[HomerThompson]

mostly cablenthanos being gone tbh.

Ha ha, I forgot about that can. Man, there sure were a huge number of terrible posters at this time last year. Somebody else brought up Thunderflash500 yesterday, who I had also somehow forgotten.

 

[snakedafunky]

I'm the same way.. Not good a placing people into categories.

Are you saying that people should not be placed into different classes so that you can create a classless society?

Fox News and the White House?

Don't feel bad. I got voted worst contributer and sneaky Commie in one single post! Good times.

I always want to keep track of quote of the year but fail but the time these arrive everytime. I had some on my other laptop that crashed but they would've been from the first few months.

I thought I was being clever this year by making posts that say "x of the year" when I came across something particularly good. That way I could do a search at the end for "of the year" posted by me in the WR. Well, the quotation marks don't seem to help because it's giving me every post with "of", "the", "year".

Some benevolent soul should fix that.

Yea, the search function isn't too great for phrasing. I've though at times I easily could find something and ended up having to look through a page or so of results that weren't close to the phrase before finally seeing what I wanted.

I got back 200 results and said fuck it after skimming the first two pages.

200 is the max results it will give which means you just got the 200 most recent results

I used to pay attention to which posts got the most likes. Turns out it's usually one liners with little substance that get the most likes, making it a pretty useless metric. I sometimes wonder if anyone reads multi paragraph in depth posts that actually go into detail.

Pretty handy for you though when it comes to verifying WR contributors come election time, eh?

Indeed. I wanted it to be higher than 200 but it seems like that isn't too bad actually.

Aye. Shows interest in both the topics discussed and an attempt to be a member of our little community.

I can't imagine saying something that harsh but I get you are paraphrasing. I feel like whatever that was, it was over a year ago. Time flies.

And some of the regulars actually come in around 200. If it had been 300, I think people would've been generally upset about how many got knocked out. Luckily, the forum inadvertently made it 200.
