Um, a little late to the party aren't you? Methinks you might have some catching up to do.

 

Wow, are we really this bored waiting on the '08s that we have to make threads like this 4 pages?

TROLL!!!!

lol, I'll save the next poster some trouble and just say it myself.

 

Oh..... My..... God!! 4 pages of arguing about whether or not a joke was funny! Seriously, that's nuts, and I had to read all those pages. :angry:

What's up with Chavez, why is everyone hatin' on him? I purposely go out of my way to fill up at Citgo everytime. Anyone who publicly calls G.W. "The Devil" is alright in my book. Rock on Hugo.

Sorry, but that would not be the "easy cure" you think it would be. Undoubtedly, someone would then construe the subject to be 'the extra costs involved in maintaining a black Prius' in comparison to any other color.

THE EASY CURE WOULD HAVE BEEN FOR THE OP TO HAVE PROPERLY CATEGORIZED HIS 'JOKE' POST AND PLACE IT IN FHOP!
Placing a joke post in the Main Prius Forum only serves to cheapen the rational and integrity of the Main Prius Forum.
If the OP would have placed the post in FHOP, we undoubtedly would not be having this discussion . . . I THE MAIN PRIUS FORUM! <_<

THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN MODDED TO FHOP LONG AGO.
From the very beginning, this thread did not qualify under the "General posts specific to the Prius that can't be categorized in the Forums below" requirement for posting to the Main Prius Forum.

I apologize for being so obtuse.

Don't you get it?
If you post a joke like this one in a jokes thread or forum it wouldn't be funny!

Looking for the emoticon with the head in it's hands shaking from side to side.
Why can't people lighten up?

Oh, so now we are going to loosen the rules for posting in the Main Prius Forum if it enhances a joke?

If that is the case, look for my new Prius Main Forum post . . .

Did You Hear About The Ignorant Liberal Driving a Prius? :lol: hehehehe... :

I think it qualifies for the Main Prius Forum because . . . "it really is an issue for me...ok, kinda."
I'm tired of people thinking I'm a liberal because I drive a Prius.
So, of course, I will use a highly charged title, just to help it get noticed.

And here I always thought of you as kinda acute! :lol:

 

But that looks like a joke so it isn't funnier by being in a main thread.
You really don't get it do you?

Should we all be required to wear black tie to come onto PriusChat? Some people seem to think it must always be treated with such reverence.
Are the rules really that strict? Is there no room on this forum for a laugh?

Um, if you look VERY, VERY carefully, you can see that he talks specifically about his Prius.

btw, those articles on The Onion? They're not real. They're meant to be humor, too.

Careful Rae, you musn't try to be funny or clever. This is the Prius main Forum you know.

 

And here comes page 5

I did look very, very carefully, and previously posted about a mere mention of "Prius" as somehow being all it takes to qualify for posting in the Main Prius Forum.

As for the Onion . . . it is a comedy web site. If the Onion were a person posting on PriusChat, they should confine their posts to FHOP - lest someone take it for actual Prius information or news.

How do you think my "Did You Hear About The Ignorant Liberal Driving a Prius? :lol: hehehehe... " thread would be received on the Main Prius Forum, should I decide to post it?
Don't you think it would disintegrate into an FHOP-ish quagmire
How long do you think it would take till a MOD moves it into its rightful place?
But doesn't it qualify???? I did mention "Prius."
