The Moon..
 

There's at least 2 sides to every story,
Just like there's 2 sides of the moon,
The light side brings the glory,
The dark side brings the gloom,

you finish this poem..

that'll show 'em

We like the mooooon.

Because it is close to us.

There's at least 2 sides to every story,
Just like there's 2 sides of the moon,
The light side brings the glory,
The dark side brings the gloom,
But when dark and light become left and right,
It takes both sides to make a full moon. :moon:

Here you go, JBK. Just a quick attempt. ;)

(And a quick fix to subject/verb agreement)

There are at least 2 sides to every story,
Just like there are 2 sides of the moon.
The light side brings the glory,
The dark side brings the gloom.

But who can know the truth
When they’re both in the same room
You think you’re seeing glory
As it turns out: just more gloom.

Keep a watchful eye
On that two-faced crazy moon
You never know which side is facing
Forward, and at whom?

That's pretty darn good.

me likes (clap clap) for I-M.. and s-b

What if the moon's a balloon...


?

Well, the balloonman whistles far and wee, but I don't know how the moon whistles.

The moon is an orb, a sphere. There is only one side.

Oop, wait....

Inside and outside...

Nevermind.

Sorry Grav, but I deleted that butt picture. It was either that or label the whole thread NSFW. Why don't you put it on picture hosting site and just give a text link to it?

While we're on the subject (and nothing at Grav I didn't even see the picture) could a mod (because it'd go over like a lead balloon coming from me) put out a gentle and general reminder that soft porn might not be actually unsafe for work but it isn't exactly good for work.

For example, the rash of bikini booby women in some of the image threads lately. I wouldn't think twice about them but if I happen to click on a thread looking for the latest "funny image" and there's a woman with giant tits and very little clothing, I have to wonder what a passing cow orker would think I was into.

They don't mind me cruising sites while I'm processing but I don't think they expect me to be ogling gorgeous scantily clad chicks, you know?

Please be mindful of those of us who peruse from work.

Well delete the whole post, because what you left makes me look like I was having a stroke or something.

Cuz, in my experience, pic hosting sites suck what you deleted a picture of...


FTR: No worries over deleting the pic. The inconsistency bothers me a little, but, I've been past that for a while now.

Sorry - my bad.

Yeah... lol... I usually go right ahead and open the NSFW stuff, because who cares where I work... but when it turns out to be Big Sarge's ass, and someone walks into my office just as the image appears... uh.. yeah... got some splainin to do

What inconsistency?
I posted a topless pic in an otherwise SFW thread. I gave the post a NSFW heading.
Infi pointed out to me that having a warning there was too late if you were clicking from New Posts so I moved that particular post to a NSFW thread.
Why? Because she was right.

I don't know who is being inconsistent in requesting images NSFW are in threads where you knw what to expect, but it's not Infi.
And Glatt is fair and balanced. As a mod anyway, he might be a despot away from here...

NSFW has come to mean "nudity or shock value" to me, as I haven't accessed the internet from work for a while. I think it's reasonable to remind people that it really does mean Not Suitable (Safe) For Work. And err on the side of caution.

Again - I believe I was the offending party this time. It is/was MY fault and I apologized.
I'll try to do this in the future ... Give the post a NSFW heading.

No one was being singled out. I was talking about pictures in "funny images" or "motivationals" or some other ones I can't think of right now. It's been more and more frequent, as of late, and I thought a reminder was in order.

Labeling the POST NSFW is ineffective, as Sundae said: if you are going in through new posts it's too late.

So anyone who wants to feel singled out you go right ahead, but that isn't it at all. Just understand that I don't want my cow orkers to walk by when a giant picture of a daisy duke with big titties poking out her tight t-shirt pops on my screen when all I wanted to see was the latest motivational poster. You know, like a cheezburger cat saying "imma hang in there" or something.

"Get a load of the big tits on this broad...more than a mouthful better than a dickful" maybe needs a Dubious For Work classification. ;)

Uh, OK - Obviously I thought it was me as I had admittedly done so
and I was SORRY for doing it.
I never said anything about being singled out. I was taking responsibility for my part.

Re: "Give the post a NSFW heading." I'll take better notes next time.

Sigh...

I think it was me, with my posting of Sarge's ass whistling, which was deleted by Glatt, which I've already posted that I have no problem with.

The inconsistency I spoke of, and have been speaking of, doesn't really matter, to anyone, not even me anymore. I shoulda just kept my mouth shut. I would explain it, but it's old and tiresome, and there's a history of any point I try to make being misconstrued as me telling people how to think, or my point gets lost completely.

Also, infinite monkey did not figure into this in any way shape form or fashion.

So...carry on. Please.

It's all good, grav. :)

I do understand there can be inconsistency, too. I feel it too.

But my point about the pictures seemed sensible and non-accusatory. It just followed from the butt removal and was something I had had on my mind, way before the butt. :lol:

Thanks for understanding my point. :)

I was responding to Sundae's post.

As I said:

;)

You're welcome. sigh.

I wasn't intending to ask a loaded question.
I thought you were referring to this incident and I couldn't work out why.
I was asking for clarity, not to bash anyone over the head with it.

But you're right Grav, you need to make your peace with previous issues.
You posted a photo of Sarge's arse. I didn't see it, but major haggis.
Glatt then removed it - whether by Shawnee's instigation or someone else's.
I get that, and I understand.

But then you wrote about inconsistency, which (to me) muddied the waters.

My Opinion
I do think some Dwellars are bitchy (and that does not just apply to the female of the species)
And some attack on the slightest provocation.
Others will have your back until you hit on a certain topic
Some you would like to fade away.

All of the above can change places in your opinion depending on thread or topic.
I honestly do not believe there is a collective, a clique or a Treehouse Club in the Cellar.

Some Dwellars have been bloody rude to me but no-one seems to have noticed. It's ouch. It's life.
Sometimes they've been out of order and people have pointed it out.
Many have challenged my opinion in many different ways and every word they've used has been justified.
Even if I wouldn't admit it at the time.
Being rude, high-hamded or sarcastic doesn't necessarily mean you are wrong.

I'm pretty nondescript as a Dwellar, but maybe even I have trodden on some toes. I'm probably more likely to offend by just being me than by my actual posts (excepting this wishy-washy one which is me in a nutshell)

I love the picture games, the word games, the competitions and the general camaraderie here. When this place is fun, it's FUN. Make it so.

Oh for fuck's sake.

I didn't say a word to glatt. I just took that opportunity to remind the board about things that pop up on screens at work. In fact, when everyone starts reading for comprehension you'll see scattered throughout a couple instances of you saying exactly what I said WAS NOT the case.

God damn, did I not SAY it would be a lead balloon?

Is Friday fuck with Infi day? I remember a similar progression last week.

:headshake

Just a simple fucking reminder...

What the fuck are you all ON about? Nothing, that's what!

weeble wobble weeble wobble

Honestly, I deleted it because I didn't want to see it, and I thought to myself "Hey, I'm at work, and if my boss saw me looking at some guy's butt, it would be awkward." I rechecked the top to the thread to make sure I hadn't accidentally opened a NSFW marked thread, and saw it wasn't marked, so I deleted it.

I wasn't offended or mad at anyone, and I felt bad for grav because it was pretty funny. He had put these little music symbols coming out of (I think Big Sarge's) butt.

But I figured if I didn't want to see it at work, other people wouldn't either. Nobody contacted me. Nobody flagged it. It was all me.

OK - moving right along...
On the reading comprehension aspect I offer you this...

ETA - I wrote this before the above post
I don't want to get caught in the crossfire.

My apologies to everyone.

Infi. I say solemnly that I am not fucking with you.
I used your name because I wanted to point out to Grav that he was not being unfairly censored.
I was (technically) censored too - but for the bloody good reason that people are at work and some things are not acceptable.

And for me the difference between what is acceptable in the workplace in the US and the UK does blur the lines.
And my addiction to crystal meth.

(that is a joke)

Grav's post was probably very funny
It was not suitable for people accessing from work
If it was deleted it was not a conspiracy

Lets all meet up and hug
(not meant sarcastically - I'd love to be Stateside right now!)

Back to the OP

There are at least 2 sides to every story,
Just like there are 2 sides of the moon,
The light side brings the glory,
The dark side brings the gloom,

But the sun is lighted all around
Should that be where we turn
When we look for answers?
Or will it only burn?

There are at least 2 sides to every story,
Just like there are 2 sides of the moon,
The light side brings the glory,
The dark side brings the gloom,

My dark and fearsome lover
You're the last thing that I see
And as the moon clouds over
You eviscerate me

I'm going away now.

Grav - wait for meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

But the sun is lighted all around
Should that be where we turn
When we look for answers?
Or will it only burn?

The third side of the story,
which happens to be the truth,
Is that a lying tongue never has proof,
whispers in the dark,
tell a different tale,
they lie cheat and,
Want your soul for sale,
Better be safe than sorry,
so walk in the light,
I like to hammer out truth,
And act like a knight,
Faith and obeideance,
Is the only way,
IF you follow Jesus,
He won't lead you astray,
As for the sun,
And it's scour-hing demand,
let the fear of God,
Be your upper hand.

I fear God
Less than I fear the moon.
Is the moon scary?
Less than sun in June.

There is a moon.
It's in the sky.
It's called the moon.

This is perfection.

Every time I see this thread I get B-52s stuck in my head. Its only fair I try and get it stuck in everyone else's too.

B-52s are probably better than spongmonkeys when it comes to earworms.
