How well do you follow directions?

Let it sink.

2. Thanks for not recommending the thread.
You get a point for that. But, I'll have to dock you 5 for kicking it. Sorry.

6. How can you make a mistake like that?
I'm going to have to drop you down a letter grade.

8. I follow directions really well. So well in fact I often forgo a map and get lost.
Haven't been driving in a while though.

or I'll have to suspend you from "directions" school.

33. What can you SAY?
That's the point of the exercise. And, BTW, if anyone on this thread offers support to any baseball team other than the St. Louis Cardinals, that individual automatically fails the test. I didn't tell you that up front, so I won't count the last post against you...but, watch it next time.

:D

35. I'm completely hopeless.
Sitting here in my Sedona Red Dbacks jersey, watching an old Eric Byrnes show, waiting for the first game of the season.
I never learn. :evilgrin:

36. The fact that you are a Diamondbacks fan
should have tipped you off. Are you deliberately trying to push my buttons? :shrug:

40. Well, you see, it's like this...
Normally, you would be correct about that...but, in THIS case I am the "Decider." The decision I decided to decide was that you lose points by being a smartass. Are you pushing for my impeachment?

47. One that already HAS some, but then again....
You can never have too many nipples (except when more than 2 appear on any given individual) :D

Something like this, perhaps?



More nipples to prove my point:



Go, Cowboys! :hi: :rofl:
