Do you know what the difference is between someone who sees 120 Pat shows and a person who has only seen about 25?

The guy who has seen 25 has gotten laid a lot more, enjoys the music more, doesn't have time to play games on messages boards because he's making to much fucking money, and overall is just funnier.

Hey now, I...er, maybe I shouldn't get into that here...

I'm hoping one day I'll make these big bucks

I think you are a buster, and after this message, you won't be of any concern to me.

Good.  Bye.

Ok. ?I've been involved in flame wars many times over the course of many years. ?Temiken? ?I'll tell you this. ?Get out our Asbestos Underwear, it's going to get a bit hot for you.

It does NOT give you the write to try and make other fans fell like...

I don't have the write? ?Well slip me a mickey¹ and screw me three ways from Sunday! ?At least I know that I've got the right to think, say, or feel whatever the damn hell I want.

And for further information, as Mark said it was pretty much just good natured ribbing between those of us who do post the Set Lists for shows. ?So I ask myself, what was it about us posting Set Lists, or giving each other flack about said postings that seems to bother you?

I had to sit there thinking about this (granted, I didn't think very hard about it) until you then posted this:

The guy who has seen 25 has gotten laid a lot more, enjoys the music more, doesn't have time to play games on messages boards because he's making to much fucking money, and overall is just funnier.

Now, You're entitled to say and think whatever you want. ?The only caveat being that if you voice them, you stand the risk of being called on what you've said.

So, let's stop for a moment and analize what it is you've just said. ?If you've only gone to 25 shows instead of 120 in the past X amount of time then you've gotten laid more.

Really? ?Wow. ?I never knew that getting laid was a direct by-product of how often you see a Pat show. ?Why hasn't anyone bothered to phone the newspapers? ?CNN? ?Hell, I think Dan Rather would be all over this like Mark on a Whiskey Sour.

Unless of course (as happens to be the case,) it's complete and utter bullshit.

However, I am willing to allow that it may be true in your case. ?For all we know you're currently seeing someone who's controlling and manipulative. ?Maybe they only time they'll sleep with you is on nights where you could go to a Pat show so that they can deny you that, and keep control of you.

As for the comment on making "to much fucking money" I'll just say this.  You don't know me.  Nor do you know Mark, Amy, Luke, HHH, nor anyone else who posts here with any regularity.  Sure, you may know some of our names, and maybe even know some by sight, but you don't know us.  

You dont' know what we do for a living, so how do you know that we make less money than you?  I'd be willing to bet that you don't.  I mean afterall, how much money can one really make selling yourself?

Actually, I think we've stumbled upon a theory.  You make "to much fucking money" by selling yourself, hence how you're getting laid more from not going to Pat shows.

Just goes to show you that you can sell anything to some people I guess.

And I don't know about you, but I find that if someone is trying to be humorous in a written form that it helps to be able to show that you have at least the same grasp of the English language as the average third grader.

Now, I've sat here responding to this for long enough (in fact, I've been sitting here making money while writing this.)

Have a nice day!

What's a buster? I'm not up on my ghetto-slang.

Does being "corn holed" in the drunk tank count as being laid. Because I have a feeling that Temiken ( who I like to call "Jaggy") has spent many Pat Show Nights here. Temiken is some poor "Suburban Gangsta" thus the whole played "buster" reference. I think it was last used circa 1988....by like Tone Loc.

I've got a Quiz for you Temiken, do you know what the difference is between your a$$ and a hole in the ground?

As someone who used to be a regular, but now has other commintments that keeps me form attending shows regularly I just have to say that you are completely clueless.  I have a couple questions though?

Temiken posted:
If you go to 'x' Pat shows a month, you are an absolute freak.

What is the value of X?  If x=1 then you are an absolute freak as you have attended at least 25 shows, by your own admission, which means that even if you've been going for 2 years, you are averaging 1 show a month.

If you feel like you are less of a fan because there are people who have attended more shows than you, then why are you calling people who have attended many more shows than you freaks and pathetic?  It don't make no sense, and if it don't make sense you must acquit!

Hmmm, you start talking about stroking your own ego and then move into the number of shows you have gone to relates directly to sex.  I think someone is definately thinking about some stroking, but egos probably isn't what you have in mind.  In fact, as someone who met his girlfriend at Pat I can probably safely say that I'm getting laid more than you.

So, how would you know how much we enjoy the music.  I'm very curious about how you know what people like Greg, myself, Luke, Amy, Nate, Mike Brien, Mark, Billy, or any of the other regulars feel when they are at shows, or how much they enjoy the music.  Are you able to read minds?  What am I thinking right now?

You make too much money to play games on this board.  Apparently making a lot of money makes you an a$$hole.  So I guess I'm in trouble, cuz I make quite a good living, and I don't seem to be an a$$hole.  Oh, and flaming people seems like playing games to me, maybe I'm wrong though.  Nah!

You know what is probably the worst thing about all this, I actually got indignant enough to care about you for the time that it took me to write this.  Ok, I'm over it now.

I must admit this is quite interesting reading. All over Set Lists. Which I have found to be quite handy in putting together that "Pat Live Best Of" CD. Mark has done a great job here. $$$, laid, time on his hands or not. That is bottom line. As Metallica said "Nothing Else Matters"₁.

Well...alot can happen while you are at work all day.  But oh yeah, that's right, you make a heck of a lot more money than I do.  Well...sorry for squashing your bubble...but I think that an accountant makes just a little bit more money than one thinks.  

Normally I get around to checking this BB along with a few others during my lunch hour; however, today I was out on an audit at the client's office.  To add to that, now that tax season is upon us, I pretty much know that I will be going to a few shows straight from work.  Not that that is anything to be proud of, but it will also keep my sane.  Which, by the way, is a perfect reason to go to a show.  Keep the mind thinking and get a little bit of humor along with it.  

And now, just so you don't think that we are only picking on you...the entire premise of this BB is to have some good natured ribbing on the fellows that post here:

And I don't know about you, but I find that if someone is trying to be humorous in a written form that it helps to be able to show that you have at least the same grasp of the English language as the average third grader.

Okay, so if Temiken is busy being poor and getting laid, why are you spending your time reading this bulletin board instead of finding a job or having sex?

Let's end this thread.  This person obviously does not feel the Pat-Groupie love.  Sure, I'll be the first one to admit that I'm a Pat-freak.  I go into convulsions if I don't get to hear Screw You live at least once a week.  But I think I speak for all of us when I say that it's not all about Pat...it's about the people, the atmosphere, the pints at  a certain Irish Pub post-show, the after parties with all of us Pat-heads at a certain Delta Phi Zeta house    ...I just think this person is being overly critical over things that they don't understand.  And if we annoy you so much, my dear Temiken, don't come on this message board.  
I may be a geek, I may be broke, and I may be an over-zealous Pat-head, but I love my fellow Pat-heads, love the good times I've had over the past couple years with the people I've met, and I still have a great sex life, thank you very much.

Just to clarify to aptdweller, or any others who don't realize it I was quoting South Park there.  The infamous Chewbacca defense.  And yes, I proudly admit to being both a Pat and South Park fanatic.  But yes, if I was shooting for grammatically correct, your version would probably be right.
