Did you know that the fear of numbers is called arithmophobia?

Yea... I had that fear all through College Calculus

Did you know bees were the 1st creatures to know the world was round....

[Cobra]

I find that fact too random - is there a link that provides evidence?

[Jumbo_Holden]

I find that fact too random - is there a link that provides evidence?

It was on QI last night

[Doramius]

QI as in Queer Eye? I tend not to believe people that ostentatious about clashing.

[Craig Tucker]

No, QI as in Quite Interesting
Plot Outline: A comedy panel game in which being Quite Interesting is more important than being right. Stephen Fry is joined each week by four comedians to share anecdotes and trivia, and maybe answer some questions as well.
So the fact it was on QI does not necessarily make it true.

[Tommyknocker]

Which bee did they ask, what were his exact words, and is he a reliable source?

[Doramius]

DO they have hot lesbians on that show? Ain't gonna watch it unless it's got hot lesbians. :P

[Jumbo_Holden]

Its true, that an expert thinks it. He could be wrong but its true as far as we know

[Tommyknocker]

I say bring the bee in in front of a Senate Subcommittee. They'll get the truth out of him, by gum.

Hello,

Was it an American bee?? If not you'll have to go through the international courts and that could take YEARS!

The media will be abuzz. But will likely drone on and on, waxing philosophical.

Hello,



TOO EARLY FOR BAD PUNS!

Kevin

[Tommyknocker]

Actually, couple of those were pretty clever.

[Cobra]

Did you know that this thread has gone off the original topic?

[Tommyknocker]

It would have stayed that way had not Cobra snatched Order from the Jaws of Chaos.

[Doramius]

[TGPO]All Rise. Honarable Judge Doramius O. Chaos presiding.

[Doramius]You may be seated. Let's see here, the case of Cobra vs. Videohelp.com. It seems Mr. Cobra and a few of his VCD friend had thrown a topic completely askew from it's intentional purpose. {Brrrrruuppfftttttttt--pftheeet}
Excuse me, I had a chili-dog with cheese.

Will the Plaintiff please step up and plead his case?

[Tommyknocker]It is under my physical observation and that of several innocent users of the videohelp.com forums who witnessed something so vile, so despicable, so repulse. We witnessed a...THREADJACK!

[loud gasps from the courtroom]

[Doramius]Would the defence care to make a statement?

[Cobra-holding his nose]Your honor, I only said I found the fact to be random. I did not know that it would stray the topic from it's original thread.

[Tommyknocker]I object your honor. We have witnesses and proof that Cobra, AS A Moderator, has willfully done this before and has done this sort of thing intentionally.

[Cobra]That's not true. I found myself going to other threads and seeing the last post only, and then replying only to it. I didn't know these threads were already falling away from the original thought.

[Doramius banging gavel]ORDER, ORDER! The objection is overruled. We are dealing with him starting the Threadjack, not him becoming involved in a threadjack after it has happened.

[Tommyknocker]Your honor, I believe his credibility is worth very little.

[Doramius]That's a mighty strong accusation there. Do you have the ability to back it up?

[Tommyknocker]Again, your honor, Cobra is a moderator and must follow....... {PPPffBeeeAAaarnnnt-PFFFHHOOOOOOOT-Pfoot-pfeet}
[Doramius]Damn, lactose intolerancy. [throws gas tablets into mouth]

Continue.

[Tommyknocker holding his nose] Uh, Where was I?

[Doramius]Stenographer, could you read the last 2 statements back?

[CoasterCreator]-That is a mighty strong accusation there. Do you have the ability to back it up?

-Again, your honor, Cobra is a moderator and must follow

[Tommyknocker] Ah yes, And must follow the rules all
the rules by which the forum is run.

[Cobra]But it's the Off Topic Forum and I was the one who created the topic.

[Doramius] Is this true?

[Tommyknocker] I.. UH...uh. Yes, it's it's true.

[Doramius]So an Off Topic Thread which the defendant reated in the Off Topic Forum, created by the defendant, was threadjacked by the moderator who initially created it. Is this correct?

[Cobra] Yes, Your honor.
[Tommyknocker]That is correct.

[Doramius] I then declare these proceeding dismissed. The courtroom will now be cleared immediately, as I just ripped another one that was REALLY warm, and I've got to go to the bathroom right away.

[yoda313]

Hello,


[tommyknocker] I have a suprise witness - YODA313 please step forward!

[yoda313 swings in on a rope yielding his gleaming silver lightsaber and carefully extinquishes it]

[yoda313]Your honor {looks at doramius} I have PROOF that this thread was willfully and shamefully hijacked!

[Cobra} Proof you say????

[yoda313]Proof I do say - It was the DARK SIDE OF THE FORCE that ripped this thread from it's true DESTINY!

{doramius} I'm afraid the FORCE can't be a suspect as this court has declared Star Wars a SUCKY MOVIE FRANCHISE

{half the audience erupts in cheers as the other half ignites their lightsabers and charges the disblievers}

[yoda313] OFF WITH THIER HEADS!!!! This court is worse than the EVIL EMPIRE!!!!!

{a bloodbath ensues and all but the triumphant JEDI are slain and ORDER IS RESTORED TO THE VIDEOHELP GALAXY}

The dark side clouds everything....remember.

[Cobra]

What can I say, but... !

[Doramius]

[Doramius stands up] ORder, Order!

[Yoda and the Jedi ingnore the calls to order and bring sabers to the ready]

[Doramius]{Beeeaaaaarnnnnnthpfffffffffffteeeeeet-peet}

[A massive explosion ensues ignited by the sabers and destroys Jedi and disbelievers. Those that may have survived are asphixdiated by the smoldering smell of a** stench, with the only sole survivor being Doramius as he is the only one who can stand up to such a force of bowel toxification]

[Doramius] Whee-hew, that was a nasty one. I should not have had Horsey Sauce with that last Arby's Beef & Cheddar burger.

[pfeeEEet] Ah yes. That's the stuff.

[Doramius]

Did you know the wood-paper companies were the largest geoup that caused marajuana to be made illegal in the US. They knew that hemp-paper could be made faster and cheaper than wood-paper. If Hemp-paper was widely used instead of wood-paper, only 1/50th less trees would be cut down.

[yoda313]

Hello,

ORDER IN THE COURT!!! Who's GOT SOME PEPTO BISMOL FOR DORAMIUS?????

Kevin

[Cobra]

OK, how about some more facts?

Did you know that the average human grows 590 miles of hair in a lifetime?

[yoda313]

Hello,

Did you know that the computers used in the space flights of the 60's had as much power as the original GAME BOY?????

Kevin

(Sorry I don't have data to back that up, I just remember hearing that awhile back )

[Capmaster]

Speaking of computers, did you know that an average laptop made 5 years ago had vastly more computing power than all the computers in the world combined in the 1960's?
