Geez, it's Friday night and you're starting an intereseting debate thread....wait, I see it's for THX to present evidence. Nevermind. It will be short.

[Sword_Of_Truth]

The audience is waiting... :p

Can BS101 come and play as well? He never did apologize for accusing me of strawman, so this may be a nice place for just that. And then he could also apologize for calling the skeptics 'like Holocaust deniers'.

[Dog Town]

I'm in!

Personnally, I don't think "strawman" is an insult. The scarecrow was always one of my favourite characters in the Wizard of Oz.

[Gravy]

While we're waiting, Pardalis, why have you adopted the ocelot as your coat-of-arms, and does it have a different name in French?

[Dog Town]

While we're at it, Gravy, where the heck did you get yours?

I created mine in Photoshop. The forest is a photograph. I added the "Woo" and applied some highlighting and shading to give the letters some depth.

[bob_kark]

Well, I'm beginning to think they've finally seen the error of their ways and are now too embarrassed to post on here. Its ok guys, we all make mistakes, we don't think any less of you.

[Brainster]

I always assumed it was from "Conspiracy Theory" the Mel Gibson movie; "Gravy for the brain".

Are you actually creating a graphic novel, and does it feature an ocelot?

[Gravy]

The "Gravy" was off the top of my head. I wanted a short screen name that was easy for people to type, and that was the first word that came up. I have no idea why. I don't have a special thing for gravy.

This explanation is even more boring than the explanations of the origin of the name "Loose Change."

Oh, I just thought you were a gravy aficionado like myself. You know, a boathead?

I do like gravy. I just don't go out of my way for it. There's a restaurant near me called "Gravy." I haven't been in. Wonder if I get a discount?

That's a very 1985 avatar, bob.

Then you'll be x-raying the candy you collect, I gather?

It's Friday night and there is way too much testosterone in here...

That's a good question! I have always wondered, if their uber paranoia works it's way into, the rest of their day. Can you imagine? How can they even get online?

.....there are still some good seats left.

I thought I'd just make a documentary showing that it's actually not a bag of candy at all, but a bag of magical fairy dust instead.

How can they even get online?I would love to rent a van with blacked-out windows and a couple of big antennas on top and park it near "Camp Freedom" for a couple of days. They would lose their little minds.

Be just like that "reporter" from AFP, maybe better, they would atleast roll tape!

Wait, what? THX?? who? THX-1138?

Take four red capsules. In 10 minutes, take two more. Help is on the way.

For someone who wastes a good portion of his workday reading this forum, I sure do manage to miss a lot of things.

Later, I'm going to make what I hope will become the definitive animated "REALLY?!?" Kyle .gif, suitable for use as a forum avatar or as an all-purpose LC forum-style content-free smilie post. Just so you know.

lol, no it's unrelated to Revolver Ocelot. :D

Speaking of Halloween costumes, Bermas would be a fabulous match for this stout, gap-toothed trick-or-treater. Wonder where I can get an 'Investigate 9/11' shirt without lining the pockets of the LTW crew...

Hi, guys. Sorry, I just wandered in here. I'm looking for Complexity. Anybody seen him? I borrowed his calculator and now I can't find him.

So... what're you guys doing, just hanging out smoking?

Well don't tell anyone, but we're waiting for a guy with some pills guaranteed to blow our minds.

Red or Blue, who cares?

[R.Mackey]

What sort of pills would it take... for us to finally get a Troother over here who can form a coherent argument? We've been awfully patient.

Ah well. I guess that sort of ability is rare among their 25%.

Well, I seen the little nipper! He was reading (or looking at the pictures and his big sister was reading to him) about 0500 NY Time (1100 CET). Appears to have not left any droppings, though. :spjimlad:

[qarnos]

I feel stupid for asking this, but... who is THX?

I have had the THX "Deep Note" in my head ever since I saw this topic.

[eddyk]

He made a comment or two in the Alex Jones Lunacy thread.

And appears to be on Alex Jones' Side.

[Foolmewunz]

THX-1138 is the CT-er of the month. Evidently they have a Baskin Robbins and you pick a nutbar and send him over.
His first visible activity was here....http://forums.randi.org/showthread.php?t=66020

Seems to come from a "free-form" blogsite or forum. Doesn't even care about or pretend to care about evidence. Just can spout his opinions and thinks that's sufficient.

So far about a 9 on the jackass quotient, but nothing substantial. Read for yourself. CTer on a mission, I'd say.

Thanks, guys. I haven't been following that thread.

The people you find on the internet...

Well, I may as well join in:

I created mine in Photoshop. The forest is a photograph. I added the "Woo" and applied some highlighting and shading to give the letters some depth.

Well, I learned one thing from this thread, anyway. I never noticed it said 'Woo'. I just thought it was some weird (wooish) beasts in your sights. :o Oh, dear, I feel so unobservant.

When I first saw you posting here, I thought of the Raymond Carver poem, 'Gravy'. But after getting to 'know' you, I didn't think you were referring to it. It's excellent, anyway, and while the crickets are chirping, here's a poetic interlude...

Gravy

By Raymond Carver

No other word will do. For that's what it was. Gravy.
Gravy, these past ten years.
Alive, sober, working, loving and
being loved by a good woman. Eleven years
ago he was told he had six months to live
at the rate he was going. And he was going
nowhere but down. So he changed his ways
somehow. He quit drinking! And the rest?
After that it was all gravy, every minute
of it, up to and including when he was told about,
well, some things that were breaking down and
building up inside his head. "Don't weep for me,"
he said to his friends. "I'm a lucky man.
I've had ten years longer than I or anyone
expected. Pure gravy. And don't forget it."

Holy crap! It does say woo!

I never noticed either! It's like some kind of subliminal message!

I've just noticed that I have ended every sentence with an exclaimation! I guess there is no reason to stop now!

Hmmm!

It was damp and chilly afternoon, so I decided to put on my sweatshirt!

I pulled the lever on the machine, but the Clark bar didn't come out!

Ok, I'm done!

Thanks for the poem, Orphia. No, I hadn't seen it before. One thing is accurate: I don't drink like I used to. Then again, I don't have fun like I used to, either. :mad: Perhaps that will change if I take up drinking gravy instead of alcohol.
