OK, I'm kinda bored. I've never done this before...
but i am going to PURPOSELY start a flame-thread. I've participated in flame-threads before, but i have never started one.

So, that being said, the topic of the day is:

The toilet paper roll goes on the hanger with the flap of paper to the FRONT! Anybody who thinks otherwise is an IDIOT! I can't believe that some here (who CLAIM to be Democrats, if you know what i mean) think that the little flap goes to the rear! What friggin' idiots!

OK, that's all i got. I'm gonna go hang a new (well, salvaged) storm door and i'll be back periodically to see how this is going. Remember that any comment that is not in total agreement with me OR a total flame will be alerted on, and thereby will be a total waste of our new moderators time.

Thank you,
ret5hd

2. That only applies to people who don't have cats
If the flap is in the front it makes it too damned easy for the cat to unroll it.

Why do you hate pets?:eyes:

5. Why do you hate your cat? Is your cat not entitled to some measure of enjoyment?
Obviously, you think YOU are superior to cats, which (ask ANY cat) is totally not the case!

Fortunately, I have an untitled, unrelated graphic handy...




I'll give you a quarter if you can figure out what it is off the top of your head, no research!

30. ah i almost said thermodynamics but i thought motor would suggest that
yay for physics majors :) umm so i see from your profile that you are from Minnesota. i am from new york. so, how about i will meet you in the men's bathroom of the Minneapolis airport? just read up on what larry craig did and i am sure you will be able to identify me. i'll be the plainclothes police officer. i'll ask you how you plead, you say "guilty" and that's the secret code. k? of course, you must first openly proclaim yourself a bigoted hypocrite. kk, see you then :P :rofl: (:woohoo: i love winning money)

32. Too bad you don't live in Canada...
Postage is 52 cents over here and with the US dollar at 0,9659 Canuckistanian $ you would make a nice profit and spend some vacation in Hawaii.:)

12. That's about the most naive if not flat out idiotic OP that I've ever seen on the topic.
You still use toilet paper? Why do you hate Gaia?

14. Actually, I am in total agreement with you on that.
It irritates me and takes extra time if someone puts it on backwards, because either I have to correct their mistake or take extra time to get some toilet paper off the roll backwards.

Now, THAT ^ is how you start a flame war. :evilgrin:

25. PLANET HATER!!!
All responsible caring denizens of Mother Gaia know the only environmentally sound method is to use corn cobs from recycled ethonol waste! A dark one first, and then a light one to see if you need another dark one... (My greatgrandfather taught me that!)

28. You can't start a flame war on purpose.
Not in the Lounge, anyway. In GD or GDP you probably can quite easily. Over here, they just happen of their own volition, and who can predict what will be the next subject of one?
