Scuba Forum / General / February 2008Management Lessons 5 - Dedicated to the Me Too gang
A little bird was flying south for the winter. It was so cold the bird froze and fell to the ground into a large field. While he was lying there, a cow came by and dropped some dung on him. As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of cow dung, he began to realize how warm he was. The dung was actually thawing him out! He lay there all warm and happy, and soon began to sing for joy. A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to investigate. Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile of cow dung, and promptly dug him out and ate him. Morals of the story: (1) Not everyone who sh.ts on you is your enemy. (2) Not everyone who gets you out of sh.t is your friend. (3) And when you're in deep sh.t, it's best to keep your mouth shut! > A little bird was flying south for the winter. It was so cold the bird > froze and fell to the ground into a large field.

Whooh there Doug. You're a supporter and a proponent of off topic posting! What? Do you limit your off topic likes to racist articles meant to incite and further hatred in the world? Maybe you've got a bug up your a.s because the topic is Management Lessons 5 instead of something Muslim or Hispanic. Which of the characters are you relating to Doug? The cow? The bird? The cat? Who amongst the players in the post was so offensive to the bunch of people to which you refer? Maybe your insulted because of the dedication to the Me Too gang? Do you want individual recognition? Isn't a general dedication to the entire gang good enough? After all, the Me Toos are only effective when they work together. When they post individually it's almost like they are thinking for themselves. You just need to remember that being a Me Too means that you don't think for yourself. >> ... in reference to his multiple OT post that includes a blanket insult >> to a bunch of people he doesn't know. > > Whooh there Doug.

Futile John says this: "Quit clipping the stuff that's damaging to your argument. Makes it look like it has weaknesses. Mayhap it does?" But hey, not having Futile John's reading comprehension issues, and being able to remember what I posted an hour ago, I can work with it. First, how you got "So we agree that you snipe and insult people you don't know even if you agree 100% with what the person said and their right to say it." From "Whooh there Doug. You're a supporter and a proponent of off topic posting!" -kennybenny "Absolutely." <snnnniiippppp> -Popeye Is a matter for the kennybennybonics translator. But we -do- agree that we both post off topic whenever we choose. We -do- agree that you whine and squeal about others posting OT, but still do more than your fair share. And we -do- agree that it makes you a hypocrite. Then, as far as "So we agree that you snipe and insult people you don't know even if you agree 100% with what the person said and their right to say it." goes, It'd be nice if you could cite this somewhere, but we know you can't. As far as this goes: "So we agree that you snipe and insult people you don't know", we both agree that you do it while accusing me of it, and that I know, oh, a hundred times as many (-living-) Rec.scubans as you do. So we agree that's a hypocrisy twofer. You been hanging out too close to the Canadian border, dude. >>> Maybe your insulted because of the dedication to the Me Too gang?
