interesting question, good fellow... I don't know if I should be in that decision-making process, as I'm not an Administrator... And it would be a bit self-serving 
Maybe, we should title this category "I really need to get a life".Asteriktos said:So, Mr. Moderator, will the powers that be make another title once a sufficient number of people start getting towards 4,000? Maybe emperor/empress? ;D

No, "Mr 3,175 posts", it is not a case of sour grapes! Unlikeozgeorge said:Is this simply a case of sour grapes, "Mr. 180 Posts"?![]()
You call THAT a life...heck, I think I'll just keep spending my time on OC.netCarpatho Russian said:No, "Mr 3,175 posts", it is not a case of sour grapes! Unlikeyouother people on this board, I have a life.
Speaking of which, I have to get ready to go over a friend's house for dinner who is celebrating Christmas today on the Old Calendar.
It's times like this (having celebrated Theophany yesterday and the Sobor of St John the Baptist today and now heading for an Old Calendar Christmas celebration) that reminds me of the Aposticha from Vespers on Palm Sunday evening, "Come, O faithful, let us quickly pass from one holy feast to another..."![]()
Hey, the overwhelming majority of our faithful never go to Church...so it would be reasonable to assume that in order to be a 'normal' parishioner, you couldn't really go to Church except for weddings and baptisms.serb1389 said:Yah....since GiC is the most "normal" parishioner on OC.net.....like ever...![]()

Same here. If people can post pics of their Nations Ingignia/Coat of Arms/ etc I can too!SouthSerb99 said:Just posting to show off my new avatar. ;D
Yah and they can memorize entire church texts, quote verbatum all of the canons of the church, argue semantics like nobody's business and create entirely new philosophies just to irritate people off in random conversation...greekischristian said:Hey, the overwhelming majority of our faithful never go to Church...so it would be reasonable to assume that in order to be a 'normal' parishioner, you couldn't really go to Church except for weddings and baptisms.![]()

Oh, I think the more colourful adjectives are perfectly capable of spicing up a conversation...especially if used tastefully in the most scandalous of ways...it wasn't I who objected to your word choice.serb1389 said:After being reprimanded, I think i'm going to switch to the most classy language I can find. Time to bust out the Thesaurus. I'm sure GiC will be proud of me...
As for your "sure they can" comment...
The moderators that be won't allow me to follow that one up with my usual witty remarks.![]()
By golly, you are right SouthSerb99!SouthSerb99 said:Other than speaking to God himself, a Serb must speak with himself in order that he get any intellectual benefit from the conversation!
I know, but George will find that hard to understand!SouthSerb99 said:By golly, you are right SouthSerb99!
True, but he is still a very likeable chap!SouthSerb99 said:I know, but George will find that hard to understand!
Likeable yes, although quite chatty and primarily responsible for the nonsense found in the within thread!SouthSerb99 said:True, but he is still a very likeable chap!
Not only that, but he's also responsible for bringing GiC here!SouthSerb99 said:Likeable yes, although quite chatty and primarily responsible for the nonsense found in the within thread!

Oh, I understand - in Psychology they call it Personality Dissociative Disorder (what used to be called Multiple Personality Disorder).... Often times, people who think they have multiple personalities find it easier to relate with themselves than with real peopleSouthSerb99 said:Other than speaking to God himself, a Serb must speak with himself in order that he get any intellectual benefit from the conversation!
I'm not surly about losing the game; I'm surly that you forgot me on your Slava (I'm gonna keep bringing it up until wrongs are righted)...serb1389 said:And he's Greek to boot!!
Cleveland,
Just because your Buckeyes lost last night doesn't mean you can be surly with me!;D

Well, unfortunately I remember everything that happens when I'm, er, inebriated. But having a schlivo shot with you will suffice for me.serb1389 said:I was under extreme duress!!!
I had nothing left cuz I had 40 people in my room! A real feat if you knew what our boxes looked like!
I'm gona make it up to you like nobody's business!!!!
Tell me the day you get back, and i'm gona get you drunk like never before! And that's a promise! you'll never remember that day...lol.
And as a true friend of his, despite the availability of the national drink on his slava, I ask for clemency for the poor boySouthSerb99 said:George,
I was unaware of this fact. S1389 will automatically (and heretofore) be evicted from Serbdom (an automatic consequence of not including a friend for Slava)!![]()
