I love how after 2:45 seconds they just never give up. Hahahah, this was great.

"never surrender! Never give up!"

Never give up.

Never give up on your dreams....

Back in business! For the time being, that is. I'm going to keep promoting that thing even if it has negative 15 points!

So, was it worth $6.00 in Power Points?

AWESOME!! I really appreciate being able to ignore MY comments (I HOPE this is also possible!!)! Most of them are inane and quite disgustingly stupid!! Yes, I HATE my comments, but I adore choggie's comments because they make me feel better!! Remember choggie: NEVER SURRENDER!! NEVER GIVE UP!! (A lesson I learned from watching Galaxy Quest!). Yes, I realize this comment will be blocked. Damn!!

Yo! Der Deutsche commentar sind ganz gescheid. Wir sollen nie vergessen wie schoen alle Deutsche sprechende Leute versuche Deutsch zu sprechen ohne Worte! (everyone that can't speak German will wonder what I wrote here, and never guess that It makes NO sense). Hopefully, THIS comment will be banned by ALL VS'rs, and ALL of the BOOKS I have ever written will be BURNED (and that I will be invited to the enormous bonfire where I can roast my marshmallows!).

Well, yeah, but . . .
There are plenty of folks who fail, fail again, fail some more, fail even more, fail again, and again, and again, and then die. There are also many people who do nothing but succeed. Let's not get too simplistic. I mean, a guy who likes a girl who doesn't like him could get the totally wrong message from this.
I'm just sayin'.


Yeah, you can't just take this message as a simplistic 'If you fail, just keep at it and you'll become great'. What it's trying to say (or at least SHOULD be) is that you will rarely, if ever, get it right the first time, if you fail at something the first go, don't just give up, LEARN from the failure and do better next time. The key word is LEARN, you can't fail and then do exactly the same thing again and expect for success (unless it's just a dumb luck thing), you have to adapt and improve.

Just don't take any and all people's denouement of you as fact, you must listen to what people say, and take it on if you feel it's constructive, but don't necessarily just give up because you're told by someone who may not be qualified to tell you anything that you're a failure.

Or you can just stop chasing the ever-moving carrot, take a long hard look at your stunningly beautiful family and say to yourself, "Dude, I'm there already!".


...if you've got a family

Great commercial. But I don't know that I would have included Grant, seeing as his administration was one of the most scandalous in history. But I guess if you're just focusing on the fact that he made it to President...though, that'd be like including the monkey we have in office now, wouldn't it?


I figured they were probably referring to the whole war thing.

sorry.

Mr. Hoard, I keep fergettin' it's yer livelihood-and I know you know how much hatred their is for haters. You still don't get it do ya?? Have I not gone out of my way to explain myself with regard to my contempt for your vibe at times?? Your perception perhaps, is what's askew, again: while a Marijuana user myself, I blame the marijuana in your case. Labels, labels, and more labels-ad-hom, neo-con, I really don't know which labels place me in a tidy box, to be filed in the "Oh he's one or more of those" categories....why???
Because you never give up the sacred cow....Unlike most folks, I don't necessarily care what you think or say as much as I want to know why you say or don't say, think or don't think. Sorry to bust your version of relaxation-perhaps you are witnessing another, and yes, their have been a few, who have left this place out of sheer frustration. (not unlike what dag's head felt like 8 or so hours ago, after all that cheap Aussie wine, or what mine felt like reading the same thread, w/o wine)

I too relax here, but experiential awareness being a dynamic thing, I also get wound up, frustrated, just as much or more than yourself, as do we all-I can't be asked to abruptly halt something for want of understanding-If I should ever become siftquisitionated, new rules will have to be added to the already, long-winded tomes.

If my legacy here is to be eternal asshole, mine for you would be, Eternal Panderer....a title which I came up with on the fly, and had to check a dictionary to make sure it fit...funny, the definition I was thinking of alludes to the schoolyard homophone you were called on the blog, by some qm-type.....

relax.
I am not your enemy, and don't hate your input, and like so many of the directions your dredging of the internet takes me-you have given me many hours of satisfaction here, as well as many moments of other-(damn,I'm gettin' some blood-fill in the ol' Vienna sausage)

You think too much in one direction, me in another-welcome to the world of the real. You need people to be who they will, to remember who you are.God help the Canadians, and these pussyfied Americans, both of whom would babble themselves into box of scorpions, and then talk about the long-term effects of the pain, the poison,all the while standing in the box. My frustration must be in my head as well......told ya we juxtaposed well-

I have called Hillary a cunt here, clitless, etc., and all I get is ignored-at the very least, you will never suffer that- I try to call it like it may be, not like it is-

Go back and read the siftquisition you always refer to, the answer is there, i've told you more than once.....simply checks and balances

So, it was a Canadian eagle visiting the other side of the lake, then! Shit, even I do this from time to time, you guys have really cheap liquor and smokes down there.
