You're at 52. Didn't you used to be thousands of posts behind me. :eek:


I moved to number 41. One spot away from first page.

Bartender 08-22-2004 01:49 PM

I've made very few posts today..there seems to be little to post in. Maybe that'll pick up tonight.

We could have a mod endorsed spam fest in this thread! or not....

How many hours a day are you posting here?

Bartender 08-22-2004 05:19 PM

Pretty much every hour I'm awake, I'm online. And all the time I'm online (with very rare exceptions), I'm on MX.

It's rarely the only/main thing I'm doing, though.

Same here.

Yeah, I'm pretty thoroughly addicted to messageboards. I wouldn't be surprised if a large percent of posters are, in some small way at the evry least, affected by obsessive compulsive disorder. I joke, but in a creepy way it's probably true.

scared6of6metro 08-22-2004 08:00 PM

probly true it is

Fibonacci 08-22-2004 08:11 PM

Then again (and I'm sure I could've edited this into my last post, but I'm just sick of editing tonight) I suppose music has that addictive quality to it, and some of us just succumb much more easily.

Please don't take offense, fellow OCDers; people currently are checking me out for OCD as well. It's nothing serious.

Was the money remark a reference to some kind of inside joke involving OCD? Or was it just a witty, off to the side comment about life and it's many foibles involving scum-sucking rodents that always ask for your greens? As long as we're making some off to the side comments, I think I want some ice cream.

EDIT: and wow does this post sound sarcastic. bah, not my intentions, I assure you... seriously.

Kingofdudes 08-22-2004 08:19 PM

:lol: it was just a random side comment

Bartender 08-22-2004 08:24 PM

I'm fairly sure a friend of mine has OCD. He's hilarious.

First of all, he can't stand anyone standing on his left hand side, or even worse, rubbing his left arm. He can't explain why, but it means that he'll walk sideways before having someone walk directly to his left - unless there's also someone directly to his right, because that balances it out.

The other big one is spinning things - he can't stand them. If he has a pencil (or rule, or card, or anything) on his desk, and you spin it, he'll have to try and turn it back the same number of times it span, otherwise it distracts him horribly. Going around roundabouts is okay, unless you go round more than was needed. Bottle tops are okay, because there's a purpose being served, and they get spun back anyway.

He has a watch, one of those divers watches with a clicky turny thing around the face, and it combines two things he can't stand - first of all, he hates anyone turning it (because of spinning, and the fact that it can't be turned back), but also, he can't stand it not being aligned so that the N is at 12 o'clock. Which means that if anyone turns it a couple of degrees (which people do, a lot :)), it absolutely kills him to turn it all the way around so it's properly lined up again.

And they're just the major ones. He's weird in many other respects as well.

Fibonacci 08-22-2004 08:34 PM

And yet it feels like he's just an exaggerated form of myself.

Bartender 08-23-2004 09:12 AM

I wonder if Paranoidd enjoyed his Rush concert.

Paranoidd 08-23-2004 09:22 AM

Oh buddy, it rocked.

We had a setlist so we knew exactly what was coming up. My seats weren't too great but I could still see (and hear).

Highlights: They opened up with a medley of a few tunes, and it sounded amazing. Only ones I can remember were finding my way and Cygnus X-1. Then they played subdivisions, which was a pleasant surprise (its one of my favorite tunes).

They came back from intermission with Tom Saywer, and the place was jumping...absolutely crazy.

When they did 2112 (overture/temples of syrinx/finale) I think everyone in the crowd was singing along.

Neil's drum solo...oh man...it was worth my money right there.

Geddy and Alex did a track where they were both playing acoustic guitars, the name of it escapes me, but its a beautiful track.

And definitely my favorite part, the second last song they played (before their three encores) was Xanadu, my favorite Rush song. It was incredible.

They did a great performance of Red Sector A as well.

The whole city had Rush fever yesterday, I swear. At one point, Alex goes into the mike and starts saying "theres no place like home...theres no place like home..." and naturally everyone went nuts.

Encores were: Summertime Blues, Crossroads, Limelight

Songs I'm disappointed they didn't play: Distant Early Warning, New World Man, Closer to the Heart.

I missed two songs while taking a piss...I had one of those 28 oz. cups of beer. It was a long piss and a long lineup.

It was a long show too...about three hours. with 25 minute intermission.

But all in all, a great show. Thanks for asking Bartender :D

lucky bastard, I wanted to see them a few months ago, but didnt have the money.

Bartender 08-23-2004 09:56 AM

I'm not a fan of Rush, but that sounds great nonetheless. Glad you enjoyed it.

Paranoidd 08-23-2004 10:01 AM

On the train on the way there (a 15 minute ride to avoid the pain of driving downtown and getting stuck for three hours in traffic) the driver over the intercom said "Next stop, exhibition. All you lucky people going to the Rush concert, this is your stop. Say hi to Geddy for me."

Yeah, if he was such a big fan, he could have got us there on time. The bloody train was 15 minutes late.

superpeer 08-23-2004 10:05 AM

He was probably bitter because he didn't have tickets.

Paranoidd 08-23-2004 10:06 AM

Yeah. I believe his exact words after "say hi to Geddy" were "I'd like to go, but I can't, I'm a Working Man...*chuckle*" (playing on the fact that working man is the title of a rush song).

I'm like...yeah...hardy har har, drive the fvcking train so I don't miss that song you cunt.

Bartender 08-23-2004 11:44 AM

Did you actually miss any of the concert?

Paranoidd 08-23-2004 12:06 PM

I missed the first 30 seconds...I was walking to my seat when they started playing so it worked out fine.

Deep Purple and Joe Satriani were there the night before, I'm pissed I missed that.

Bartender 08-23-2004 05:58 PM

Does anyone here have an inordinate amount of knowledge of Spiderman/comics in general?

Dancin' Man 08-23-2004 07:23 PM

I know alot. If you want a lot of dirt go to the pit and search for Spiderman 2. It was a thread I started on opening day (right after I saw it :eek: ) and it has links and a ton of information about Spiderman.

Kingofdudes 08-23-2004 07:33 PM

Well I learned something, dont eat too many breadsticks. Gave me a bad case of the runs. But, Popeyes gave me the worst ever. What sets your bowels on fire?
