What the heck is this stuff?

[TwnklToes80]

Any particualr reason I'm forced to read this upsidedown? It's not April 1st yet

[jennylou]

What the heck is this stuff?

LOL, just thought it was funny. It's just flipped.

[PookiePrincess]

hilarious. :(

[jennylou]

hilarious. :(

So glad that I could entertain you this morning. :D

[MrsD108]

I think it is funny:D

[BethIrish]

Maybe I'm missing something, but all I see are a bunch of upside down letters and boxes.

[Niobe]

Do the rest of us have the ability to do that, or is it another special mod privilege like the April Fool's thing?

[PookiePrincess]

I'm sure it's a mod privilege in order to lighten the mood. You know, sunshine and rainbows.

[maxandmolly]

I'm sure it's a mod privilege in order to lighten the mood. You know, sunshine and rainbows.
And lollipops and puppies!

[pocahontas]

Soooo...umm, what does it say upside down because even when I try to make sense of it that way it doesn't spell out anything? :confused:

[Baby Lust]

My DH doesn't, but my FIL does. He will watch absolutely anything and comment on absolutely everything, even though the show (and his comments) make absolutely no sense!

Though my DH does watch Rock of Love and crap like that but... I guess it's mindless entertainment...?? :confused: :p

[LDS Angel 19]

What she said.

[MrsD108]

Jenny, I have been playing with this for an hour now. I found alot of things on google but only how to flip it this way once I have typed out. How do I flip yours back?

[Baby Lust]

She's asking if your DH watches odd tv shows (history channel, military channel, etc).

Must be an encrypting thing?? I can read it just fine, although it is upside down. :p

[emschwar]

I can see the upside down text in the title bar (or whatever it's called) of my web browser, but the text on the screen is just letters and boxes.

[alliannie]

I can see the upside down text in the title bar (or whatever it's called) of my web browser, but the text on the screen is just letters and boxes.

It is the opposite for me. I can see the text in the post but my title bar is boxes and letters.

my dh watches to oddest shows/movies/etc. is it just my husband? he'll watch the history channel, the military channel, anything chuck norris and now he's watching some sort of weirdo show on fx. half of the time these aren't even quality type shows, heck, they're not even what i'd call b movies! please tell me that i'm not the only one with a husband who watches the oddest things on television!

[laura]

Seriously - untwist your panties. If you don't want to / can't read it, then don't. She did something she thought was funny. If you don't agree with it, which you are free to, then just move along. Multiple comments in this thread are just unnecessary. It's not like she flipped every thread on the boards.

[TX Sweetheart]

In answer to your question, yes my DH does watch odd shows... but then again, so do I :D

So surprised by the responses in this thread. :rolleyes: *yawn*

[suzubeane]

So surprised by the responses in this thread. :rolleyes: *yawn*Me, too! People getting irritated that an admin would post something frivolous (and headache-inducing) when members' serious and valid questions are going unanswered? Who could have predicted that?!

Although if it weren't for the eyerollers, and the "I don't think that's funny" tantrums, think about how dull this place would be?

:p

[BethIrish]

My panties are just fine, thanks. On my computer this post shows up as a bunch of boxes and a few letters, so frankly it looks like an irritating computer glitch. Seems to be a lot of those on this board.

[imagirliegirl]

I think I'm the odd one in the relationship. If it's on Court TV, History, Discovery or some game show from the 1970's, I'm there! :)

[villanelle75]

Hey Lacey,

Folr future reference, can you let us know if saying things about the status of someone's panties is kosher, or does that break a rule? I'm still trying to figure out the new rules, as are a lot of others. Thanks!

[jimmysgirl424]

Uh-oh....

Maybe it's okay to say it as long as you're a buddy protecting the mod who's getting the criticism? I'm sure we'll see when the infraction list comes out.

[LyLMyssChaos]

Some of the stuff my husband watches just, I don't get it. He watches these "Ninja competitions" with subtitles. It is sort of like a Japanese Gladiators type thing. There are quite a few shows from Japan that he watches come to think of it.... And they are ALL weird! LOL

All I see are mostly boxes too but I am only annoyed that I couldn't get the joke.

I am also so confused on what is going on with CC... :confused:

[Toonces]

What are you confused about wrt CC?

I LOVE those Ninja Competitions!!!

[NotDesperate]

Why people are kicked off and the mood needs to be "lightened" and "questions are going unanswered" and there are "so many new rules." I'm confused, whats the dealio? (yes I said dealio, haha). I'm just a tad lost as to what is going on. Has something changed since the shutdown earlier this month and how come I can't follow along for myself? Am I missing something?

I think this is one of those situations that if you aren't involved, enjoy being out of the loop. I don't think this is "haha funny drama" so much as "oh crud serious" drama.

LOL! I LOVE Ninja Warrior. I can't explain why it makes me laugh, but for whatever reason something about the subtitles and stupid stunts gets me giggling everytime!

Right now he's watching a show about primitive organisms and evolution. I would much rather be watching Bravo!:rolleyes:

[NotDesperate]

Oh well I read some more of the ChitChat threads and I feel more caught up to speed. I am glad to find out that it seems everyone is confused about what is going on with CC and pretty much thinking the same things as me. :) I don't feel so dumb anymore!

[laura]

Oh, christ almighty, I am not friends with jennylou and I am not "protecting" her. I also could not give a flying rat's ass if I get an infraction for telling people lighten the hell up. I didn't realize when someone became a mod here, that meant they couldn't ever post anything frivolous again - my bad!

I have a question that went unanswered too, but I don't see how that is at all related to this post. I would love some clarification, though!

[PG-rated]

Remember when WC changed over and people were posting thread after thread in their tech support area with questions and problems, and the admin's response was to post a bunch of pictures in one of the bouquet threads?

It's like that.

Just saying.

I thought about that when posting. But then I thought my comment WAS necessary. :)

[suzubeane]

I would love some clarification, though!FWIW, I was referring to the unanswered questions in this thread (http://www.constantchatter.com/forum/showthread.php?t=39608). But my panties aren't at all twisted over it since I don't really expect them to be answered adequately. I just think it's amusing that anyone thought members would not be be irked over the bad timing of this particular admin attempt at frivolity.

And BTW, as far as I can tell your question in Board Business was answered as well as any of them have been. *shrug*

[justHB]

Okay, seriously ... if y'all are so unhappy here, get out. Go. Bye-bye. Really. Your whiny, less-than-cleverly-veiled comments will NOT be missed.

(And yes, Jenny is my sister, but no, she doesn't need my protection from a bunch of people on a message board who aren't happy with the way her "boss" is running the show ... I'm just sick of all of the ridiculous, unnecessary comments already. It's lame. It's old. Do y'all really have NOTHING BETTER TO DO WITH YOUR TIME?!)

[twainny]

DITTO what just HB said (except for the part about jenny being my sister!)

Until I because a SAHM, I had no clue what was going on... rarely came to ChitChat, cause I didn't have time. After reading a bit, and rolling my eyes at almost every whiny post, all I have to say is a lot of people need to:

GROW UP!!!!

(oh and to the OP: I thought your post was clever!! and it isn't my DH watching crazy shows, it is me!!!!!)

[Kopper]

Remember when WC changed over and people were posting thread after thread in their tech support area with questions and problems, and the admin's response was to post a bunch of pictures in one of the bouquet threads?

It's like that.

Ooo.. I remember that. It's kind of funny to think about now.

As far as the OP goes, yes I could read it but didn't think it was funny or cool, just kind of lame. Hope that's not infraction worthy since I'm not sure if I can call something lame or not.

[yby1]

I love watching Future Weapons and Dirty Jobs and Man vs Wild...I love the name Bear Grylls too. ;)

I love History's Mysteries, Modern Marvels, Cities of the Underworld and Dog Fights....awesome shows!

Oh, and I'll watch any show about WWII. :)

I think one of my favorite message-board putdowns is the "don't you have anything better to do with your time?" putdown. Um, no, and obviously you don't, either, or you'd be doing it instead of shouting about how you're not protecting your sister from the evil CC members by insulting them.

[kari]

I thought it looked like Egyptian. (the thread title that is)

[kedzieb]

Oh my god! I am just so bored with this constant, unfunny, semi-veiled reference to people getting banned and all the changes at CC. Seriously - this is a message board - that's all. It should not be the strongest focus in any of our lives.

Sure, I come here to read & post about what's happening in the world - politics, fashion, movies. But it's so annoying to keep coming into these threads and reading everyone's attempts to make themselves more self-important and persecuted.

There are real problems in the world - this isn't one of them.

Not enough drama there, I would assume.

What's so funny is the people who want to say "don't you have anything better to do ", "grow up", "I'm so sick of all the blah blah blah" and the like, yet you are spending YOUR time criticizing people for how they spend THEIR time. Hello pot!!!

Who is Steamboat Willie? I thought that was Mickey Mouse's original name?

[dionysia]

Yeah, LF, it is.

If you check out the video that Y posted, it shows a cat and a mouse. The mouse looks like Steamboat Willie, or maybe another early cartoon mouse. I can't remember the name right now...

IDK, Tom's arms look pretty buff in that picture.

[laura]

Ok, seriously - my point is this: at this point it seems like what has happened, has happened, and we have probably received all of the clarification we are going to receive. So the choice is - move forward on the boards, as is, or depart for greener pastures. The choice is entirely yours, but this horse is more than dead. I can't think of a good word for super, extremely, ridiculously dead. But that's what it is.

I disagree - there's something that almost resembles a real discussion going on over in Board Biz. Now, if you want to say that criticisms of an admin don't belong in this thread, then I think you have a valid point, even if I might disagree with you on that. But I'm pretty sure things aren't quite as "settled" yet as some people would probably like.

I never understand why people try to shut down a topic by calling it dead and complaining. The topic will be dead when people lose interest and quit talking about it. Anything else is an early killing.

Given the way this thread has dissolved into jokes, my guess is the topic is dying (at least in this thread), so need to try to force it.

I'm just saying, you're unhappy - we get it. No need to turn every freaking thread into your personal soap box about the big bad mods.

And no, I'm not here trying to protect my sister even though I know you're going to try to paint it that way. She is an adult and can stick up for herself - I don't need to do it for her. That said, I don't know why she hasn't told you all to shut up and **** off yet, but that's between her and the site's owner I guess. If it were me, I would have banned all y'all because you have annoyed me to no end, but that's why I don't run my own website. :D

Oh, and FWIW - Ninja Warrior is one of the most amazing pieces of television mastery EVER.

[LittleFredPunkinHead]

Oh please. You wouldn't ban everyone. Where would you get your drama? This thread was on its way to a quick death (no posts for 24 hours) until you had to pull it back up and snarl at people again.

[miaclear]

I personally don't mind a MOD posting a random thread like this. I'm over any drama that happened in the last few weeks, actually I never really got my panties in a bunch over it to begin with. Granted I was not affected by anything, other than the boards being down for as long as they were. I do however think that posting upside down is just really stupid. Not funny. Lame. And skipable.

[justHB]

Then you must love it as much as you think I do since you keep posting too. :)

[LittleFredPunkinHead]

As much as I think you do? Well, yes, I don't think it's any surprise that I find drama entertaining. I guess I'm pretty surprised that you don't though!
Must be tough to constantly be finding yourself inserted in those kinds of situations! :(

[LittleFredPunkinHead]
