QotM inanity
 
Okay, we know that the QOTM script apparently likes to keep coming back to the first quote that was entered. I still get to see "kleenex's" about 10-20% of the time I'm on this site.

I finally got around to entering in a few new QotM entries, and I was a little surprised that I had to enter three things. The quote, the author, and then the letter. Uh, so you need me to tell you that "Fritz" starts with an "F" - is that what I'm hearing? And if I say "Fritz" starts with a "Q" that's where it gets filed?

Anyway, I guess it's entertaining.

QS - See a Jason Tobias listing in the Ws.

Maple Leafs 03-12-2003 10:08 AM

By the way, did they cut a bunch of quotes? The list seems to be much smaller, which is a good thing. Nice job, mods.

Still too many Fritz quotes, though. Seems like everyone thing he says is assumed to be stunningly hilarious, even if we don't know why. Kind of like an FOFC Whoopi Goldberg.

I went through this morning and cut a bunch. My main criterion was: "Is this funny as a stand-alone one-liner?" I mainly cut out stuff that was only humorous in context.

KWhit 03-12-2003 10:14 AM

Way to go, Dog.

Ksyrup 03-12-2003 10:14 AM

Good idea. I was thinking the same thing as I read through them a couple of weeks ago. A number of those quotes were only funny in context.

Hey now, don't go attacking me. BTW, what is an everyone thing?


SkyDog - Thanks for pruning out the "I often Eat Harry and David Fruit."

Ksyrup 03-12-2003 10:18 AM

Yeah, that one's only funny if it reads, "I often eat David's hairy fruit."

ACStrider 03-12-2003 10:24 AM

Ironically, I have the "kleenex" quote at the top of my page right now. :rolleyes:

I just checked, so do I... but that's pretty much even money.

Um... I was speaking French Canadian. Yeah, that's it.

Schmidty 03-12-2003 11:17 AM

Booo.

Skydog cut my cat quote. It was kind of stupid, but I thought it was better than my pirate quote.

Edit:

Picking on Fritz for no reason was mean....

Don't you mean Freedom Canadian.

No offense to Maple Leafs, but what you just said was stunningly hilarious.

Sorry Quik, I didn't make the program :(

Whew, all three of mine made it, although the only one worth it is my alien probe quote.. lol

JasonTobiasIV 03-12-2003 03:33 PM

I'm still kicking dust.

JasonTobiasIV 03-12-2003 03:38 PM

I just noticed the quotes and I am in there with a couple I didn't add to the registry. Feels good to know someone is feeling what I have to say.

My favorite is 'Inequality is the first sign of an ignorant culture. I know because I'm from space.'

If I didnt know I made this I'd tell the guy he's a friggin' jeeniuss!

Anyways, I came back and you know what? I'm out again. Keep it real fellers and those few ladies who may be around on occasion.

Back to my insane domain, Music Maven.

Sorry, I meant for it to be clear that I knew this... I'm not blaming anyone here, I'm just pointlessly lamenting things. Not to worry - it's not meant your way.

i was under the impression that adding your own quotes was bad form.

On an unrealted matter, i don't have any quotes

Subby 03-12-2003 04:06 PM

Just happy that the phrase 'ham-fisted cunt' wasn't cut by the network censors...

Senator 03-12-2003 04:11 PM

Don't feel bad. I am the only politician never to be quoted. Besides James Buchanan; that flake!

How does it compare to getting Minnie in a cereal box? :)

Kodos 03-12-2003 06:58 PM

I'm just glad to see that my 2 out-of-context, self-mocking quotes made the cut. ;)
