What really annoys me: a quick MTH

i hadn't noticed.

Pete, I would respond but I haven't had the TN yet.

I agree with your thoughts.

Yeah Peter, I'd rather completely ignore the thread until the original poster eventually comes around and posts some snotty remark along the lines...

"I guess nobody has tasted this wine, huh? Anybody? Buehler?"

Agreed, but isn't the world full of people spouting off about things they know nothing about?

I agree, but I think that it is acceptable if the person does this in order to bump the thread back up to the first page.

It's not something I've tried but I'd like to hear some opinions on it.

Can't say I have an opinion about this, but thought I'd post a reply anyway.

"What really annoys me threads" really annoy me.

About wine, or what?

What really annoys me...not here, but in general...

is when people are long winded and they KEEP ON TALKING and explaining every detail about something I really don't care to know any thing about anyways....now that annoys me.

This really was meant to be a rhetorical thread, really.

Retorical threads? Booooriiiiing! Sooooooo annoying - WS should kick people starting these kind of threads of the boards!

Bump.

"What he said"

How insightful...

Bumping threads within two hours of the last post - what's that all about then?

I think that was my point...that is what he said wasnt it, I just couldn't piece enough of the English language together to form my own thoughts.



or spell them...

I haven't tried this wine but my cousin's brother-in-law knew a guy who's sister tried it and she said it was pretty good.

Baird, isn't your cousin's brother-in-laws sister your half daughter? It's late and I'm confused. Cheers!

Too much wine the past week...

Hey, Pete -

under normal circumstances I would agree with you 100%!

However.

I am currently seated in my boat with my girlfriend, by my wooden pier in the outer archipelago, enjoying a sea with a mirror calm surface, and a sun that does not set (it dips below the horizon for a few hours) and having a cold beer while surfing the web on my laptop and waiting to go up to the house to put some entrecote on the grill. Which I will pair with a good NZ PN.

So in short - right now, I don't give a rats a$$, mate.

Midsummer Murders.

Just wait till winter, man.
In the mean time, enjoy!

The only thing that would've made me more jealous of Markus' post is if he told us how hot his girlfriend was.

Markus --

I've taken the liberty of revising your post:

I am currently seated ON A STACK OF THOUSAND DOLLAR BILLS situated in my 175 FOOT HATTERAS boat with my SUPER MODEL girlfriend, by my GOLD-PLATED wooden pier in the outer archipelago OF MY PERSONAL ISLAND COMPLEX, enjoying a sea with a mirror calm surface, and a sun that does not set (it dips below the horizon for a few hours) and having UNPROTECTED SEX while surfing the web on my laptop and waiting to go up to the house to TELL MY CHEF WHAT I'D LIKE FOR DINNER. Which I will pair with a good 1959 CH. HAUT BRION.

G&PN -

Chef? Supermodel? Jessica?!?!!?!?

G&P,
You have just answered what a Finnish midsummer and the Atkins diet have in common: they both send you loopy. Very funny post!

And hey, crazy Fin. Have an awesome time...oh, you are. Cheers mate!!

pete

Ha ha,

I'm still laughing when I'm writing this! Great posts, guys. I will enjoy the last of my vacation to the full.

G&PN, I guess I will have to admit this; the pier is not gold plated.
