    Agreed like that ol' saying says "you can catch more flies with honey than with vinegar". I do see his point of view about the whole laws and such. I seem to agree with him because not only did he bring proof, he backs everything up. But trust me you catch m ore flies with honey than vinegar. Iam sure you can do it.

Flies get stuck in the tar, I get either a fly swatter, some bleach, or any chems, or just get fire and burn them up. xD Iam like the fly murderer. Lol its like HALP ME! A MAD MAN IS BURNING ME! AWRARARW D; Iam dying! I tried to eat some peanut butter and got stuck on it now Iam being murdarared. xD lolol

    Actually, that is not true. You catch more flies with vinegar than honey. That is why you set up trap jars for fruit flies using vinegar.

    OK that was disturbing.

    Yet again, the usual people make a serious thread into a joke. Thank you for lowering the level of the forum.

    Sorry john. dont be mad at us.. D: Least we're not fighting? And on the plus side. No other forum is friendly oriented like this one enough where you can make a joke and not get chewed out?

    The forum has not been lowered in any way. Part of the friendliness of the forum is the ability to joke around. Its kind of how we bond to each other. We are serious when we need to be.

    You can do that in the off-topic section but joking on a press release is not alright. All posts to the press release section are now moderated for anyone who doesn't have at least moderator status.
