Yup, about the same level as Woman's World, or Redbook, or the Victoria Secret catalog, or Sears and Roebuck, or Modified Mag.
Soooo, maybe you should go read those...
In the same vein, perhaps the politically minded could stick to US Weekly and not bother us?
And the religious can read whatever books/magazines that apply.
While we're at it, just strike "Off Topic" entirely.
There's a difference, though. The softcore porn doesn't cause bitter arguments and constant thread locks.

I'd be fine with all of that.

One more name added to the list of people that don't like me. Check.
I like you just fine brother. I didn't mean to imply (if it sounded like it) that you should leave here completely and go read those rags, just read them to get whatever you get out of posting them here. Truth be told, the title of that thread bothers me as much as the content, and I'm tired of seeing it pop up all the time.
The sarcasm font must have stopped working.
I've had my fare share of heated discussions, but I don't see those people as not liking me. I just hope they don't remember the stupid E36 M3 I said. I don't hold it anything against them.
Back to the balls....
In reply to N Sperlo:
Fact is, whenever I get into a debate I forget as soon as it is over who I was debating with. I only hope the other guy does the same. I only remember Flight Services posts because of repetition.
I find it amusing that that whole thread string came from someone stating that threads here aren't judged equally for locking, and the OP should just let it go.

You obviously don't even look at the thread. I try very hard not to repeat.
Some balls are look different in the light...

Some balls are held for charity
And some for fancy dress
But when they're held for pleasure
They're the balls that I like best
After receiving and using their balls the Four Square Party demands that the gov't stay out of the ball distribution business and anyone else who gets them is just demanding entitlements.
Now the fringe wacko arm of that Party, known as the Dodge Ball Party, has claimed the balls were made in Kenya, even though the stamp on them say "Made in America" and they have invoices proving they came from the States. They also claim that the Founding Fathers would have never supported everyone owning balls in the first place and will shut down the whole ball system.
Since nobody is ever satisfied, the Kick Ball Party will strike if the balls are not made by union workers at prevailing wages.
My balls are in the shop.
Can I play with some of your balls?

No, he was pointing out that one side of the argument got pissy when real discussion was offered and demanded that it be locked rather than continue to support their theory.
Not suprisingly, you missed that apparently.

So, is there a difference if you live in a red ball state or a blue ball state (nyuk nyuk)?
Just for the record: Threads are not judged equally for locking because it's not what is discussed, but how it's discussed, that triggers the lock. Pissiness is no fun, and it certainly adds nothing to the party. Also, thread topics that are reliable prompters of pissiness from this community are usually watched more closely, because history repeats itself. Over and berkeleying over. And that's not fun.
As for whether it's right or wrong, that's also a story with very limited appeal/fun factor. So we'll probably not be too eager to keep broadcasting that message, either. Because here's a little tip: This is supposed to be enjoyable for people to consume. We are, after all, a consumer magazine. Not your parents.

That's funny, because the only members that asked it to be locked were on your side of the argument. But I guess you missed that.

In reply to Cone_Junkie:
I only voted for the lock because it degenerated to "Borderline patio worthy material" for those on both sides. SFO, well.....he just loves things locked.
I just found it funny that the instant I posted what was asked (A real budget on 40hr MW job for my area) it was met with excuses. That, to me, was berkeleying HILARIOUS.
My balls haven't worked for 4 years, so I don't care about them anymore. I now have blank shooting balls..... is that an NFA item?

Did Marjorie just declare all of our balls should be enjoyable for consumption?

For some reason I think this was already covered in another thread.

Hey, Marjorie can enjoy MY ba.... wait, this is a PG site. Nevermind! lol
Just kidding Marjorie! Don't put me in the patio.
Puh-lease. I don't want anything to do with your balls. I'm getting by just fine with my girl balls.
