I am very closing to becoming number 3 in total posts in the post race.

[dday9]

I'd like to take this moment to thank all my fans.

[dday9]

Specifically this one:

[dday9]

But not this one:

[FunkyDexter]

Are you a tractor?

[dday9]

Tractor goes hadoop.

[dilettante]

Waiting to see the 💩 hit it.

[Shaggy Hiker]

I'm neither a tractor...though I guess I can say that I'm a tractor fan. I've never been not one.

[Shaggy Hiker]

I prefer weather shielded fans, myself. I tend to leave one in a window that I leave open. When it rains...the fan gets wet.

[Shaggy Hiker]

Only sometimes, but it's always better when the house doesn't burn down.

[Peter Porter]

YouTube Smava ads are so freakin' annoying!

[Peter Porter]

No matter how long the video is, this freakin' unskippable German Smava ad pop-ups every 3 minutes, followed by a skippable ad.

[Peter Porter]

The latest White House news conference, an hour and nine minutes long, showed the same Smava ad every 3 minutes!

[Peter Porter]

That's 23 freakin' times!

[Peter Porter]

I thought about stopping the video after the first 9 minutes, but decided to watch it till the end just to see how many times this ad pops up.

[Shaggy Hiker]

What is smava? I'm certainly not going to go searching for it, lest it start following me around.

[Peter Porter]

What is smava? I'm certainly not going to go searching for it, lest it start following me around.

It's a German peer to peer lending app that matches people and businesses with lenders and borrowers.

[Shaggy Hiker]

If they're doing that much advertising...it would make me suspicious.

[FunkyDexter]

We've got a similar thing over here called FundingCircle though they've stopped taking on new lender at the moment.

[Shaggy Hiker]

Guess they closed their circle.

[FunkyDexter]

I hear they foreclose on their loans really aggressively. They can be a really vicious circle.


(^This is not actually true, I was just in it for the pun)

[dday9]

Half of a hole is still a hole.

[wes4dbt]

Yeah, but a whole hole is a whole lot more hole.

[dday9]

Holy cow

[Shaggy Hiker]

Yeah, but a whole hole is a whole lot more hole.

That swole hole is very droll....LOL.

[Shaggy Hiker]

This thread has been steered unerringly back to inanity.

[Shaggy Hiker]

I knew we could do it.

[Peter Porter]

[dday9]

Ohh yeah. Chickachickahhh

[Shaggy Hiker]

Another weekend, more rain. Interesting times for a desert.

[Shaggy Hiker]

Where was all this precipitation in the winter, when it could have fallen as snow and lingered longer?

[dilettante]

Oh-oh-oh-oh oppa Gangnam Style

[Peter Porter]

Winter use to be extreme ages ago in Germany. It would last for months, but now we're lucky if we get a couple of days of snow.

[yereverluvinuncleber]

Kinda Lingers.

[Shaggy Hiker]

I don't mind the lack of snow in the valleys, but the mountains are the store for water.

[dday9]

Do you have to? Do you have to? Do you have to let it linger?

[Shaggy Hiker]

Doesn't that song have a line like, "giving you the finger?" If not, it probably should.

[Shaggy Hiker]

The fact that DDay is likely to move into second place in the Post Race just shows how incredible that first place person was. It takes real dedication to get that high up, even if there isn't a post delay.
