So, I guess you think it's okay that they steer so many of their clients into the print media, huh? I find that completely outrageous!!! Posts: 22497 | Registered: Sep 2000

Hmm...the guy who wrote that article probably got a lot of hate mail. Dave Barry wrote an article about US/France relations that was really hilarious. Wish I had a link.
But the gyst of his opening remarks were:
The French think Americans are loud, overweight, and all drive SUVs.
The Americans the French are cowards, rude and smell bad.
We're both right.
Then he gives some handy phrases in French that an American can use to break the ice with a French Person.
My favorite was the one inviting them to visit the nearest mega-mall with you. Then you tell them that they can surrender to the Security Guard -- no no, just teasing you there, buddy...

Nick, you need to post a link to some site that gives a humorous twist to your "dobie." Otherwise you are just mocking the title of another thread.
And while I'm at it, is it just me or is posting in this thread far less satisfying than actually creating the Dobie and posting it as a new thread?

No Bob, It's not just you. I find it much more satisfying when there is an actual dobie thread.

Dobbie...OMG!!! It's the Flying NUN!!! Good one! +4 Dobies -1 for saying it was your first attempt when you have another one earlier on this same page!!!
Ludosti...cute idea. I was wondering if maybe you could've found a Flash website somewhere where we could pull the wings off flies or something really entertaining. But still...a good effort. +1 Dobie

Yeah, pretty lame, especially given all the hugging/mugging threads I saw while I was digging up the dobie thread. But at least I'm doing my part to not litter on Hatrack

Two things, Erik. Well, three, actually. One, thanks for bumping and using this thread. Two, I'm not sure you get the idea of a Dobie. You're supposed to link to something having to do with the new title. Linking to the original thread just didn't make sense. Three, a crucial aspect of Dobies (in my opinion, anyway) is timing. Dobie-ing a thread that is two days old, even if it's still on the first page, is an uphill battle. If you've had two days to think about how to make a joke of something, it better be really good.
I think maybe you were funnier when you were a girl. I mean, when people thought you were. I mean, when people kept thinking it and saying it and you had to keep denying it. Yeah, that was pretty funny. Um.... San Dimas High School Football Rules!
