caroljane Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 However the Biebs in not in the vanguard of urban fashion. I live next to a high school and the low pants are definitely passe, I have not seen them on teens of any colour for several months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philip Coates Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 > Is this an Urban Black thing, or do White Boys go around with their belt-line beneath their rectums?> It is like Gresham's law. Bad customs drive out the good.It's like the OL and other websites' law. Bad posts (with their belt lines below their rectum) drive out good. Think about where your belt line is if you are one who only post insults or if you don't ever post thoughtful intellectual responses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Stuart Kelly Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 It's like the OL and other websites' law. Bad posts (with their belt lines below their rectum) drive out good.Think about where your belt line is if you are one who only post insults or if you don't ever post thoughtful intellectual responses.I am in awe of the depth of intellectual substance of this post and the nuanced subtlety of sneak-attack ranting in the Humor section.But, since this is a humor thread, let's at least appreciate the humor in it.Phil stated that "Bad posts (with their belt lines below their rectum) drive out good." I cannot help but notice that Phil thinks many posts on OL are bad, yet he keeps up a string of his own posts.Oh dear. What to conclude? What to conclude?Let's see...Since all those dirty rotten posts are supposed to drive out the intelligent ones, and since he is prolific, they obviously did not drive out his posts. So isn't this an admission--in action--that his own posts are no good and not intelligent?(I can't help but think of the line in my signature: "Know thyself..." ) Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dennis Hardin Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 It's like the OL and other websites' law. Bad posts (with their belt lines below their rectum) drive out good.Think about where your belt line is if you are one who only post insults or if you don't ever post thoughtful intellectual responses.I never quite got the hang of street slang, but now, with Phil’s help, I think I’m catching on.A ‘bad post’ is one that lots of OL members respond to.‘Good posts’ are posts that everyone ignores in favor of the ‘bad posts.’Sick means awesome! Bad means good. “Killin It” is actually a good thing.Thanks, Phil! You’re the pimp! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philip Coates Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 No,--bad posts are something which are meant out of spite and accomplish nothing. --Bad posts are mean-spirited and snarky like the one you just made.--Bad posts are personal undercutting Perigo-like 'zingers' which have no intellectual contentEspecially if you are capable of greater intelligence, of not showing your butt cheeks and mooning your opponents.(Hmmm... I guess I should go back to treating you the way Rand did in the question period with the insulting interlocutor? Should I stick you back in the snark pack with the Jonathans, NDs, Fred Weiss's, Boaz Simonicis, and Luke Setzers?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
