I would like to add that Greeks gave civilization all great things. Some examples:

- Baklava
- Souvlaki
- Pita Bread
- Modern Philosophy
- The Olympics
- Democracy
- Modern Science
- Water Mills
- The Alarm Clock
- Theater
- Central Heating
- Good looks
- Maps
- Trial by Jury
- The Hippocratic Oath
- The Screw
- The Shower
- The Crossbow
- Togas
- Toga Parties
- Gratuitous Sex

As my Papou would always remind me as a child...

"Our ancestors were inventing philosophy and creating society while the rest of the world was swinging from trees and eating their own shit". *

This is gold!

Talk about overkill, you had my attention at Gratuitous Sex. Next time start with that.

Every great cultural renaissance in Western history has started by recovering Greek philosophy.

No, but the "swinging from trees" comment has been a staple in old Greek man lore. His name was also Gus.

One note though, and I bet GK will agree, that movie was a pretty accurate depiction of Greek families. ha.

What got irishff1014 the boot?

He's had a few run-ins with trouble lately, and then went way overboard with a comment in the Orlando Shooting thread.

He's earned a decent ban, not exactly sure on the timeframe.

In the thread, it said a month.

I think reasonable people would agree that his comment deserved that, even without any prior issues, which he also had.

Well, geez. Now I'm curious what the comment was.

It was his opinion on how we should deal with the shooters wife. He said we should get all the info we can out of her and then he suggested a barbaric version of the death penalty that ISIS would approve of.

It was way over the line.

That certainly sounds ban worthy. For the record I really didn't need to know what he said. If the mods think something is ba worthy then I'm good with it. I've seen a lot of leniency in here before.

I hope the mods share who it is that has the hard-on for me. I'd like to buy him dinner.

Isn't sharing a private message a bannable offense? ;) But in all seriousness, who takes the time to make a new account like this to complain about a poster they don't like? Season can't come soon enough.

Updates in this thread are like going out to recess as a kid and finding out someone was called back up the classroom after lunch and is not at recess.

You have to be able to prove intent, not just gross negligence. Wiz didn't know the messages were marked private at the time he asked to see them.
