The sky is blue
 
Title says it all.

I'll plan to check back in when this thread tops 200 or so responses, and see how everyone is urinating on one another over the ensuing controversy. I especially look forward to the four-page long "let me refute you point by point" stuff. I'll set the over/under at 2.5 people in the boxed/banned list over the hubbub.

Have at it.

Passacaglia 07-11-2008 04:04 PM

What does 'blue' mean?

Ksyrup 07-11-2008 04:05 PM

Shoulda gone for something a little more definitive...like 'Kathy Griffin is ugly.'

JonInMiddleGA 07-11-2008 04:06 PM

Maybe on your planet but on mine it's ... oh, wait. Nevermind.

I got nothing.

Yeah, like that could even be debated.

Ksyrup 07-11-2008 04:09 PM

That would have made his point even more clearer when the inevitable debate erupted.

Especially when there's lots of smug in the air (like in this thread for example).

MJ4H 07-11-2008 04:16 PM

This has to be a prop bet.

not 2/3, or even 2.667?

path12 07-11-2008 04:23 PM

Hubbub. That is a great word.

Really? I would be so bold as to state that the title, "The sky is blue" doesn't say much at all. For a simple four word title to lay claim to "saying it all" is a superb form of hyperbole, seen far too often in the confines of this message board.

Anyone worth their salt knows that you will not be able to avoid checking back in much past the 67th response, or possibly 134th, if 200 is indeed the target. And by that point, we will be far past the urination phase and well into the scatalogical portion of the controversy.

Oops... well, no point in stopping now.

See above post.

If you take the statement that "the sky is blue" at face value, then does water appear blue because of a color of it possesses independent of the sky, or is it merely reflecting the color of the sky at any given point in time?

Galaxy 07-11-2008 04:37 PM

That's racist to smurfs.

Poli 07-11-2008 04:41 PM

Define blue.

Dr. Sak 07-11-2008 04:41 PM

Sometimes my balls are blue.

Poli 07-11-2008 04:43 PM


Antmeister 07-11-2008 04:45 PM

Quiksand, you need to back off your statement. There are some color-blind people who beg to differ. And if I wear my cat-eye contacts, the sky appears to be green. Plus we can only say the sky is blue on this plane of existence. Who's the say the sky isn't puce on another plane. You sir have gotten me riled up and I agree with cartman that you will return on the "...scatalogical portion of the controversy...."

Noop 07-11-2008 04:48 PM

I guess we need Mr. Kitten to defend someone's very flawed and non-surprising opinion of the sky. Then we can have a big discussion.

So you're saying it's OK to be racist to black people? That's fucked up.

Rizon 07-11-2008 05:03 PM

Pumpy Tudors 07-11-2008 05:14 PM

Peyo was a racist because he didn't create a Blacky Smurf.

Need to change your name to Maple Leafsssssssss for that to work.

You're my boy, blue (or is it actually red?)

timmynausea 07-11-2008 07:26 PM

The sky has stuck to its guns for a long time on the blue thing. I think we can all respect that.

Draft Dodger 07-11-2008 07:31 PM

if nothing else, this thread is an excellent reminder that there is often a tremendous gap between what people think is funny and what actually is funny.

TWEET!!!

Report to the Borat/Bruno MMA in Arkansas thread, three below this one.

kcchief19 07-11-2008 07:39 PM

Quik, you also forgot to place on the inevitable and less fun parody thread activity. That could be a high number.

I'm also wondering -- are you drinking scotch?

timmynausea 07-11-2008 07:41 PM

Obligatory condescending "comedy lesson" - Check

I'm pretty sure we still need both a glorification and vilification of Ronald Reagan, though.

i hope no one thinks this is funny

Galaxy 07-11-2008 07:54 PM

I'm waiting for a Billy Joel joke somewhere.

Buccaneer 07-11-2008 07:55 PM

The sky should not be blue...or red, dammit. What does it take to get people thinking differently than simply red or blue??? :mad:

When is the last time a thread was locked on FOFC?

Noop 07-11-2008 08:32 PM

The Sky is actually black.

I'm just thankful that I can see anything.

Point made. No one seems to care though.......

You're so above it all these days.

Sad when we grow out of a joint, eh?

st.cronin 07-12-2008 08:28 AM

I don't get it.

Poli 07-12-2008 08:38 AM

The black smurfs episode kinda scared when I was 5 years old.

molson 07-12-2008 08:40 AM

Some people think message boards like this are about having discussions

Some people think message boards like this are about inside jokes

Some people think message boards like this are about no one particular thing.

Some douchebags think that they know what a message board like this is for, and anybody who goes against that vision is wrong.

The worst douchebags post about how much smarter and more productive they are for FOFC, and drop in into random threads telling them how they're awesome and the whole discussion sucks.

st.cronin 07-12-2008 08:42 AM

Is the point that we will argue about anything? Well, I disagree.

Poli 07-12-2008 08:43 AM

Hater.
