03 Nov 00 - 02:12 PM (#333739) Subject: The Childish Thread From: Clinton Hammond2 Seeing as how Mousethief and I are determined, apparently to sit in our poopy-pants and fling it at each other, i figured -I'd- at least to the Cat a favour and start a thread where we can do it... That way we're not cluttering up anyone elses threads! Yer a stink head, mt! {~` |
03 Nov 00 - 02:19 PM (#333742) Subject: RE: BS: The Childish Thread From: mousethief You won't know a stink head if you were one, CH, which you are. Your momma musta found you in a dumpster. >:( |
03 Nov 00 - 02:20 PM (#333743) Subject: The Childish Thread From: Clinton Hammond2 At least I have a momma and I know who she is... |
03 Nov 00 - 02:27 PM (#333747) Subject: RE: BS: The Childish Thread From: mousethief You just don't know which of her five "friends" is your daddy. Must be the poop-head one, cos you got that gene in spades. |
03 Nov 00 - 02:30 PM (#333748) Subject: RE: BS: The Childish Thread From: Clinton Hammond2 What's the old sayin'? Ya only know who your daddy is, 'cause yer momma told ya so... |
03 Nov 00 - 02:50 PM (#333777) Subject: RE: BS: The Childish Thread From: Kim C You boys don't make me come over there. |
03 Nov 00 - 02:52 PM (#333781) Subject: RE: BS: The Childish Thread From: mousethief Now you're getting all serious and I thought this was supposed to be childish. I always heard that the reason (American) football players say "hi mom" when the camera zooms in on them is that they don't know who their dads are. |
03 Nov 00 - 02:52 PM (#333783) Subject: RE: BS: The Childish Thread From: mousethief Him? He can't make any woman come. Over here. |
03 Nov 00 - 02:59 PM (#333793) Subject: RE: BS: The Childish Thread From: SINSULL Boys, The last time a spat like this broke out, Max had to drive the card to the side of the road and swat the two involved. And besides, it is a wise child who knows who his father is, you little bastards! |
03 Nov 00 - 03:06 PM (#333800) Subject: RE: BS: The Childish Thread From: mousethief If you don't like the thread don't read it, Sinsull. And I'm not a bastard, that's a french bread loaf so there. Nyaaaaah. |
03 Nov 00 - 03:18 PM (#333812) Subject: RE: BS: The Childish Thread From: Jeri I thought it was about Childish ballads! You're all so immature - a real bunch of babies! Babies, babies, little stinky babies -PTHPTHPTHTTT! |

03 Nov 00 - 05:52 PM (#333973) Subject: RE: BS: The Childish Thread From: mousethief Come on, Matt, you can do better than regurgitate insults from a website. Or maybe you can't, you snot-eating, fishbrained roadkill. |
03 Nov 00 - 06:22 PM (#333996) Subject: RE: BS: The Childish Thread From: GUEST,Kernow Jon When I search for something on Digitrad or The Forum does it have to wade through all this garbage. If so what a waste of bloody time! Sorry folks KJ |
03 Nov 00 - 06:33 PM (#334005) Subject: RE: BS: The Childish Thread From: Matt_R Um, Mouse? "Thou scurvy patch" is from The Tempest by Shakespeare. "Thou shaking, yaping, rammucky lurden" is from The White Company by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. All part of my vocabulary for a long time. Yes, the applejohn one is from the insult generator, but I altered it. Take that, descendant of RATS!!! (relax...Tolkien quote!) ;-) Matt |
03 Nov 00 - 06:36 PM (#334007) Subject: RE: BS: The Childish Thread From: wildlone To "search" the forum or digitrad Kernow Jon? that implies you were looking for somthing?, What was it pray you were looking for that got you to this thread, A thread clearly marked BS as well as childish. I can understand that Cornish can be a bit slow at times but surely if you can use a computer you can read. |
03 Nov 00 - 06:37 PM (#334008) Subject: RE: BS: The Childish Thread From: mousethief Kernow Jon: set the filter to block out "BS" threads. You won't make us stop goofing off, so you might as well give up now.* Matt: Relax?! Relax?! Ha! You overvalued undergraduate! Stick your left arm up your right nostril, and wave out your ear, you brainless wiper of other people's bottoms.
Alex *You snotty-nosed heap of parrot droppings. |
03 Nov 00 - 06:50 PM (#334021) Subject: RE: BS: The Childish Thread From: Matt_R Hey mouse, you're an idiot! It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe!! |
03 Nov 00 - 06:55 PM (#334031) Subject: RE: BS: The Childish Thread From: mousethief You don't breathe at all, you frog-spawn! You just wash water through your gills and wonder when you'll leave the tadpole stage and dry out behind the ears and lose your adolescent tail. "Idiot"? What kind of a lame-ass insult is that? Sheesh, even someone with as few brain cells* as you, Matt, should be able to do better than THAT. Getting serious temporarily: This is a great thread. Too bad the insults can't be confined to this thread instead of spreading out all over the Forum.
Alex *17 at last count. |

03 Nov 00 - 06:56 PM (#334036) Subject: RE: BS: The Childish Thread From: GUEST,Kernow Jon It's not me that decides which data the computer searches through. We may be slow but not to thick to understand that if we type a word or two into the search box the computer will search all the threads looking for our data. The greater the threads the longer the search! KJ |
03 Nov 00 - 07:25 PM (#334067) Subject: RE: BS: The Childish Thread From: wildlone It has been pointed out many times now every time this old story about "BS" threads taking up space, slowing down the system, causing global warming, making penguins fall over, BSE, aids, etc that if you set the filter to ignore "BS" threads they will be ignored, or so Max says |
03 Nov 00 - 07:30 PM (#334070) Subject: RE: BS: The Childish Thread From: Matt_R Frog? You are the poster-child for batrachians! Also, you sir, are a FELLOW! (Seriously: mouse--Getting Serious Temporarily sounds like a Dylan song title! ;-)) |

04 Nov 00 - 09:57 AM (#334396) Subject: RE: BS: The Childish Thread From: Jon Freeman Perhaps someone can correct me on this but as far as I can tell with the searches and thread lists in this forum. The filter box on this page is an inclusive filter, i.e. it limits the threads to those that contain a word, e.g. BS and I can see no way of entering an exclusive filter. I believe that the forum search accessible from the quick links also operates in this manner. The above only search through the thread titles but to the best of my knowledge, the forum super search, the most powerful (and also the slowest), searches through every bit of text posted here regardless of whether it is a BS thread or not. There is a form, threadsnot.cfm, that John in Brisbane mentioned in BS or No BS: Choices via Max and as far as I am aware that is the only means of filtering out BS threads. Please don't get me wrong, I do contribute to BS but I think that it is wrong to claim that it has no impact on the forum. As far as I see it, even filtering out BS requires additional processing. Perhaps someone would care to enlighten me on this issue. Jon |
04 Nov 00 - 10:05 AM (#334399) Subject: RE: BS: The Childish Thread From: MMario actually the searches don't search the forum. they search an index of the forum. |
04 Nov 00 - 10:31 AM (#334413) Subject: RE: BS: The Childish Thread From: Jon Freeman MMario, I don't think that whether an index within the Mudcat is searched or not makes any real difference to my point although I must admit that I am surprised to hear that the list of threads on the main page and the forum search from the quick links use idexes for this purpose as I would have imagined SQL queries on the actual tables, lets call them Threads and Posts respectively more likely. I am aware that the Super Search does use an indexing system. This is a special index that is built up periodically, presumably by reading through the text in every post and I would guess that the resulting search effectively reads through all this text albiet in a more efficient manner.

04 Nov 00 - 01:36 PM (#334495) Subject: RE: BS: The Childish Thread From: Clinton Hammond2 I'm sooo happy I started this thread! If only to watch MBO/matt what ever goof around all over himself... Yer right about the Dylan song title though kiddo! {~` |
04 Nov 00 - 02:59 PM (#334555) Subject: RE: BS: The Childish Thread From: mousethief How dare you use Mudcat for what YOU want to use it for, when all I want to use it for is what *I* want to use it for! There, Jon, I've said it for you, and in far fewer words.
Alex PS to Matt: batrachians? Aren't they a separatist movement in Spain? |
04 Nov 00 - 03:02 PM (#334556) Subject: RE: BS: The Childish Thread From: mousethief Wonder what happened to my mousie's nose. Hmmm. |
04 Nov 00 - 03:17 PM (#334580) Subject: RE: BS: The Childish Thread From: Jon Freeman Well Mousthief, you have managed to say something I did not say. For your benefit, I will try again: I contribute to BS threads and I am raising no objection towards others who do the same. I do however think that it is incorrect for people to suggest that:
a) Its presence does not inconvienience those who wish to read purely music related threads and unless I am corrected, I believe that the use of a special form which is not linked to in the main forum is necessary to achieve this. As for who does what and what can the forum can be used for, ultimately, only Max can decide on that issue and he allows BS and non BS. Jon |

You smell of bath soap and you wear nice clothes! You have an I.Q. of 120 and you sit around and do advanced calculus! (I need some practice. I better check that website)
