Are the posted questions getting worse?

  • So when we search for something on google - do we say google it or googling it?

    And same with bing - do we bing it or are we binging (binjing)?

    Please do not resort to name calling. Seems that a few of you display your intellect in this way, which does not surprise me in the least. If you have nothing productive to say to me in response to my post, say nothing. I have made my point and I stand by it. Like it or not. Have a great day.

    I'm sorry, but this statement:

    but this post seems more like the post of a troll than anything else

    Is not name calling. It's making a judgement call about the quality of your post. It doesn't say that you are a troll. It very clearly states that your post seems like one that would be made by someone trolling for a response (where the shortened term, troll, comes from) by posting negative and inflamatory statements, which, you did.

    You can throw rocks all you want, but if they come flying back, you can't really complain.

    Binged! I'll bing it, I binged it.

    Don't use bang.

    Some places that "in" is pronounced as an "an."

    Same with google - make sure you google it and don't ogle it.

    I have to agree whole-heartly with Grant on this. If you want to throw rocks be ready to have some come back at you (hmm, didn't you say something in your post about he who is without sin?).

    Grant is correct (and thank you, Grant, for putting it so concisely). If you go back and look at what I originally posted, I added my apologies if I was mistaken. I did not call you a troll, just pointed out that your statement looked like you were "trolling for a response by posting negative and inflamatory statements".

  • I don't mind you people commenting on my statement. Feel free to comment as you please. I meant what I said to all of you that it pertained to... Your inncessant, continued responses only further my opinion of you and that opinion is that you are angry people, self serving, pompous and seriously lacking in personality...better known as being shallow. Get a job that does not frustrate you and cause you to have to visit the Water Cooler to try and bolster your ego at the expense of others... Or better yet, learn how to do your job such that it does not cause you frustration... lastly, I'm not at all impressed with anything I have read here today, quite the contrary...disappointed.... I'm outta here. Have better things to do....

  • Ah, well, it is a Troll after all. Clarification is a wonderful thing.

    Everyone knows the rule. Don't feed it more than we already have. It'll get hungry & go elsewhere.

  • Suggest I do that a mirror said Troll should look.

    When a troll shrivels up due to hunger, does it react like a grape (become a raisin) and turn into a gremlin?

    Or this one?

  • It's that second one. And just about as useful.

  • If you had to choose one, which would it be:

    A) Pacer

    B) Gremlin

    C) walk

    If you had to choose one, which would it be:

    A) Pacer

    B) Gremlin

    C) walk

    Depends on the gremlin. If the vehicle Gremlin - then walk; if the creature - then Gremlin.

  • I use to have A which caused me to do a lot of C, so I'd have to choose D - none of the above.
