Peter_Puget Posted December 13, 2002 Posted December 13, 2002 While I have been going crazy giving out 5 stars someone has been demoting me! I wasnt in with the cool guys at school or even in here! Quote
allison Posted December 13, 2002 Posted December 13, 2002 A trend seems to forming: The more likely you are to express an opinion, the more likely that you have less stars. Quote
Greg_W Posted December 13, 2002 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

allison Posted December 14, 2002 Posted December 14, 2002 I'm rocking out to The Jam as we speak. Wat a great, great pop band they were..... Quote
Smoker Posted December 14, 2002 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
Dru Posted December 15, 2002 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
Peter_Puget Posted December 16, 2002 Posted December 16, 2002 Dru - I just gave you five but your rating didn't move - we need fractional stars! Quote
Dru Posted December 16, 2002 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
Peter_Puget Posted December 16, 2002 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
