When looking into a mirror, you can see yourself, and things behind you. If you have a big enough mirror, the field of view from behind becomes larger, but you also lose sight of what’s in the front of you.

Okay, what’s the crazy bitch trying to say?

A certain unnamed Super Mod invited me in for some good, old-fashioned intellectual debates. Hah! The good, old-fashioned intellectual debates in TIO appear to start and end with the OP, give or take a few posts.

Some, a very few AW posters in TIO, appear to be obsessed with carrying a large mirror. Making repeated, ad nauseam references to the past deeds or a misdeed of others with particular emphasis on the Middle East, and not having a view of what is in front of them. What I find truly amazing, is that regardless of the original topic within a few posts of a thread, the Middle East pops up again.

Thread: Will Katie Couric failure at CBS affect Hillary’s chances at the White House?

OP: Susan Estrich wrote a piece on what if any affect Katie Couric’s potential downfall would have on…

Did something happen in the Middle East?

Same stuff, different day. I stopped reading the news in the mid 70's. I've just recently started reading it again (darn you, Haskins!)

Guess what? Same stuff, different day. Change the names and the dates and it's the same stuff.

Is "wiki" a noun or a verb?


Depends.

In Japanese underground sex club circles, wiki is a verb.

In Norway, it's a noun.

Ohmygosh, something DID happen to Katie. I don't quite get how Katie correlates to Hillary, but we still have a year or two to hash it out. You know, we wouldn’t be having these problems if the idiot in the WH went after OBL instead of the oil in Iraq; quit backing Israel and give the poor Palestine’s their…

There's something terribly wrong in the cockpit?
The cockpit? What is it?
It's the place where the pilots stear the plane, but that's not important right now.

Doesn't sound Japanese to me... Is it a foreign word that they use/misuse?

Did an IQ test a couple years ago. Came in around 136, I think. I don't remember getting issued the "omniscient" skill. Maybe it got lost in the mail.
What time did you leave?

All my IQ ever did for me was get me labled an underachiever.

Alices,
