Yellow | ABF might just be our saving grace

"Smart" and whether a person is or isn't is really a tough one to nail down. Lets say we have a "smart" person who acts irreverently to the point that they get hard banned (had to change their name) TWICE and soft banned (given an unwanted vacation from posting here) at least once. They consistently pass off their dreams and ideas as being facts and when given the opportunity to prove themselves they refuse (because they obviously can't). This same individual would have poured a lot of money into a losing stock and professes himself to be a counselor in investing. In addition he can't discern the difference between "then" and "than". I would dare to say that this is a hard pressed case for "smartness".

And the bans have happened after Certain Posters would play the "Absolute, Irrefutable, Proof" of what "IS" is game. If one is gonna "Stack Turtles" you can't never debate a point. ABF has some expert Turtel stackers

The origins of the turtle story are uncertain.
The most widely known version, which obviously is not the source (see below), appears in Stephen Hawking's 1988 book A Brief History of Time, which starts:
A well-known scientist (some say it was Bertrand Russell) once gave a public lecture on astronomy. He described how the earth orbits around the sun and how the sun, in turn, orbits around the center of a vast collection of stars called our galaxy. At the end of the lecture, a little old lady at the back of the room got up and said: "What you have told us is rubbish. The world is really a flat plate supported on the back of a giant tortoise." The scientist gave a superior smile before replying, "What is the tortoise standing on?" "You're very clever, young man, very clever," said the old lady. "But it's turtles all the way down!"
—Hawking, 1988[1]

Sorry Charlie you are wrong. Maybe Plunger Joe will tell you why he got the hard bans. If he won't I can.

Don't get your boxers in a bunch, it's an old saying must be a regional/local thing.
 
The advertisements depicted Charlie (voiced by actor Herschel Bernardi) as a hipster wearing a Greek fisherman's hat and coke-bottle glasses, whose goal is to be caught by the StarKist company. Charlie believes that he is so hip and cultured that he has "good taste," and he is thus the perfect tuna for StarKist. Charlie is always rejected in the form of a note attached to a fish hook that says, "Sorry, Charlie." The reason given by the narrator (voiced by Danny Dark) for the rejection was that StarKist was not looking for tuna with good taste but rather for tuna that tasted good. These commercials were animated by DePatie-Freleng Enterprises.[5]

"Sorry, Charlie" became closely associated with StarKist and was also a popular American catchphrase. Charlie appeared in more than 85 advertisements for StarKist until the 1980s, when the campaign was retired. The "Sorry, Charlie" slogan was parodied mercilessly by Canadian editorial cartoonists and journalists

Thanks alot Jimmy......so Charlie is a Buffoon......and I thought ABFer implied it was a term of endearment, so I wasn't feeling quite so bad. You sure know how to deflate a mans sails. :17142:

That's right, all Bush's fault. If Bush hadn't forced socialism on all the European countries (Greece and Spain in particular) our economy wouldn't have been dragged down with them. Darn Bush screwed up the whole world didn't he. [End sarcasm]

I'm glad you can speak and know the truth when you see it, but can you accept it ?

If you think being a good union person means supporting Obama because Hoffa endorsed him? Hoffa and Obama are both liberal loons. I don't like liberal loons. As far as ABF might be our saving grace..hey it's a rat race..the ABFer is a hatchet face.

Nope you're right.... It just makes a lot of since to vote for people who can't stand the union. I'm not saying vote straight (D) or Straight (R) but have enough cense to know when a party diffenently does not care anything for you.( both are crooks) I don't think any of you would think it was normal to see a Black person at a David Duke ralley right ? So why would you consider it nomal, for a BLUE COLLAR WORKER, (don't 4 get it because they want) to be at a Repulican ralley when every right wing talk show host can't stand the union... I don't want to hear there talking about The Leadership because I NEVER heard them Distinguished it.
 
I really don't know how ABF could be our saving grace?The only thing I could see from all of this ABF thing.That maybe ABF will expose more of the facts that us members at YRC didn't have that our Union didn't tell us.Other than that.ABF the company is looking out for its own benefit and possibly existence.Not talking down our bros at ABF.Strictly about the comany(ABF)
