allison Posted December 13, 2002 Share Posted December 13, 2002 A trend seems to forming: Â The more likely you are to express an opinion, the more likely that you have less stars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg_W Posted December 13, 2002 Share Posted December 13, 2002 Mostly if it's a contrary opinion. Some who have fewer stars are just unliked by lots of people, I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smoker Posted December 14, 2002 Share Posted December 14, 2002 I dont get it  Some folks have stars below stars others dont  Short TR from the shop  Fri am early  Its early and I dont want to work yet. As the clock strikes 4:30 and I'm making my way through the second cup of joe of the day I spy a small problem.  Above the Radial arm table (maybe 8'6-9') is a florescent fixture suspended in place by a single 10' long piece of light weight unistrut. One end is loosely fastened by a huge 'U' bolt the other bolted to the sloped ceiling with plumbers tape. As my eyes return to ground level to inspect the potential grounder I am contemplating, my co-worker's eyes meet mine with a look of "What the fuck could you be thinking/staring at on the ceiling" this early in the day?  Oh yeah, thats exactly what his look said, I was there and the challenge had been laid with out a word spoken.  I couldn't believe the the short shit would even think of giving me grief at that hour (he's like 5'5" with heal lifts) So I slamed down the coffee cup and lept to the table top. No verbal exchange whatsoever. I positioned myself directly below the Unistrut and gaged the leap.  It was'nt pretty but I coiled and sprang judging the distance perfectly reaching the apex just as my fingers wrapped the steel bar. A mass of sawdust floated down off the fixture and into my co-workers hair and mouth as he gaped up at my swinging torso  The light flickered once as I carefully swung hand over hand toward the beam the unistrut was shakily positioned on, a simple heal hook and a twist had me ontop of the structural girder, looking down I kicked more sawdust laughing "Try that short shit".  He knew the dead point was well beyond his shortened stature and he scurried away to avoid the dry dust storm I was intentionally unleasing from above.  The down climbing was uneventful and we began our workday in proper style, with a break for more coffee.  I love Fridays!  Then there's Dru with his One red (North?) Star    Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dru Posted December 15, 2002 Share Posted December 15, 2002 I hate to think what my rating would be if not for all the avatars who rated me 5 stars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter_Puget Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 Dru - I just gave you five but your rating didn't move - we need fractional stars! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dru Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 Thanx Peter, wait, what am I thanking you for, you give 5 to everyone  Did you notice that if you hold your cursor over the stars, you can see how many times a person has been rated? For instance, I have been rated 20 times at this point... Smoker 3 times...Allison 37 times that girl is popular Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter_Puget Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 Hey Dru I only give those I rate 5 stars. I don't rate everyone! Hey I hadn't noticed that bit about rating volume. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
