I see MJ like dance moves, but I also see olde time tap dance done without the tap part.

maybe its a new york term. i know a guy that lives in Minneapolis and they call ATMs time machines there because of the old time is money saying. different places have different terms. or these people could be fucking retarded haha

"cute Cheech and Chong characters from old time movies..."

Well, I'm glad your facts are recent and relevant sir.

this is made of cheese, black, white, and happy old time music.

Why is he so fucking ORANGE?! I swear he has the skin tone of an oompa loompa. And his hair? What the fuck? Dude, you're like 40 years old. Time to grow out of childish things. Why are you acting like that at your age? Wow.

Old time hockey!

The boys eat and the women cook. Good old times.

Science! true daughter of Old Time thou art!
Who alterest all things with thy peering eyes.
Why preyest thou thus upon the poet's heart,
Vulture, whose wings are dull realities?
How should he love thee? or how deem thee wise,
Who wouldst not leave him in his wandering
To seek for treasure in the jewelled skies,
Albeit he soared with an undaunted wing?
Hast thou not dragged Diana from her car?
And driven the Hamadryad from the wood
To seek a shelter in some happier star?
Hast thou not torn the Naiad from her flood,
The Elfin from the green grass, and from me
The summer dream beneath the tamarind tree?

Sir Humphrey: "Minister, Britain has had the same foreign policy objective for at least the last 500 years: to create a disunited Europe. In that cause we have fought with the Dutch against the Spanish, with the Germans against the French, with the French and Italians against the Germans, and with the French against the Germans and Italians. Divide and rule, you see. Why should we change now when it's worked so well?"

Jim Hacker: "That's all ancient history, surely."

Sir Humphrey: "Yes, and current policy. We had to break the whole thing up, so we had to get inside. We tried to break it up from the outside, but that wouldn't work. Now that we're inside we can make a complete pig's breakfast of the whole thing: set the Germans against the French, the French against the Italians, the Italians against the Dutch. The Foreign Office is terribly pleased, it's just like old times."

Marvelous!

Should old acquaintance be forgot,
and never brought to mind ?
Should old acquaintance be forgot,
and old times since ?

CHORUS:
For auld lang syne, my dear,
for auld lang syne,
we'll take a cup of kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.

And surely you’ll buy your pint cup !
And surely I’ll buy mine !
And we'll take a cup o’ kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.

CHORUS

We two have run about the slopes,
and picked the daisies fine ;
But we’ve wandered many a weary foot,
since auld lang syne.

CHORUS

We two have paddled in the stream,
from morning sun till dine† ;
But seas between us broad have roared
since auld lang syne.

CHORUS

And there’s a hand my trusty friend !
And give us a hand o’ thine !
And we’ll take a right good-will draught,
for auld lang syne.

CHORUS

If the CIA hadn't deposed Mossadeq for oil in 1954, we could have had a modern secular liberal ally in Iran today. The entire Iranian Revolution was a reaction against the butal dictatorship set up by the USA as a replacement for Mossadeq the liberal democrat, and old time religion was a convenient thing for that revolution to rally around. There are tons of Iranian exile diaspora, whose necessary flight during that revolution has made Iran a much less liberal, less secular, and less democratic place. If only Mossadeq had been left in place, the reasonable Iranians would have had a popular democratic incumbancy to rally around and the bloody theocratic revolution probably never would have happened.

End the Cuban embargo for fuck's sake. If there's enough trade between two countries, economic necessity prevents them from warring. No country that size would ever in their right mind attack the USA besides. If politicians really wanted Cuba to assimilate into capitalist orthodoxy, they would drop the trade embargo to promote cultural diffusion. But they keep the old hatreds alive so that they can have a useful boogeyman to point to when they want to scare the people into supporting some demagoguery. I suspect that's also why the Pentagon ordered the elite unit that nearly had Bin Laden in their crosshairs to hold the attack plans (as was reported on 60 minutes recently).

The USA's involvement with Pinochet was also inexcusable.

@blankfist: We actually didn't intend to giveth at all. It was just an oversight during our last upgrade that we figured we'd just leave, but zealous Sifters proved we shouldn't have.

@rasch187: Whoops. Fixed.

@K0MMIE: I don't think you quite understand how it works. There's no reason you should wait a week to fix a video. Again, you will only get a new point if your existing points are not full; there's no reason you have to wait a week for that to happen. (But of course if people abuse this still lax preventive measure, we'll then be forced to fall back on the old time limit method, but we're hoping we won't have to.)

It makes fiscal sense because people can also purchase power points, so if they can load up on dozens or more at a time, there's no longer any reason to buy points. It also makes perfect sense in general: When people flood the front page with promoted videos, visitors don't like to stop and read that long list of 15 old promoted videos before they can reach the list of 15 new videos, therefore people will be annoyed and cease patronizing the Sift altogether.

everything is broken! just delete it all and start again!

ahh, that one was just for old times' sake.

I'm really nostalgic for those days. What's say you me and Zifnab meet on Robson and Thurlow and burn down a couple of Starbucks... you know, for old time's sake?

Great Track!

Reminds me of the old times.
