    Will you be repaying the opinion with interest?

    If he wasn't interested in your opinion, would he have asked?

    Or were you suggesting that, in your opinion, if you have no interest in the site it doesn't pay to go there?

    I just wanted to know wether I'd be getting 7% APR when he returns what he borrows. If I say that is good I expect to get at least 'goood' after a year. Well, that's 25% APR, but I'm a loanshark so it's ok.

    Less talk, more listen!

    Interest will be calculated at +8.26% appreciation of your opinion and general worth per month.

    Mind woss; He was severely traumatized by the whole rickroll epidemic.
    VBF got hit pretty hard.

    We don't trust youtube and tinyurl links anymore.
    Delete it. They just clutter threads anyway.

    Re: Can I Borrow Your Opinions?

    Can you borrow my opinion? It depends on how long you want to use it. I might want it back after a short time. I only got so many opinions to lend and I wouldn't want to have too low of an opinion balance in my opinion account.
    Make as many mistakes as you can as quickly as you can. We want to make sure that we make a great enough number of mistakes in a given amount of time so that we can be successful.

    Re: Can I Borrow Your Opinions?

    I should have expected some of these responses from coders wording it that way...

    Also, these are not Rick Astley's videos.

    Everything that has a computer in will fail. Everything in your life, from a watch to a car to, you know, a radio, to an iPhone, it will fail if it has a computer in it. They should kill the people who made those things.- 'Woz'

    Don't worry... Sony killed pretty much every rickroll video on youtube for copyright infringement.
