What are some things that we can agree on?

I notice that the OP hasn't posted this question on the non-English forums (thanks Google Auto-Translate feature in Chrome!)

I'm assuming any "agreeable" ideas would have to include agreement by the populations of the Russians, Germans, and Japanese sub-forums as well? In which case I'll pony up with:
* We hate the NSA.

I think we can all agree that we all don't agree on anything.




I disagree.

Yep, that's the one.

I think we can all agree that the best gifts us office folks ever used to receive were Far Side calendars.



Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

I licked some bacon I fried for some friends once. It tasted disgusting to me. My friends thought it is delicious (I didn't give them the licked one, in case you're wondering!).


Stahp... You Liar...You Eve player... You not only gave it to them after licking it but dropped it on the floor and picked the dog hair off of it first. P

Oh, take a bite and give it a chew next time. If you licked it you got nothing but a smear of tasteless grease and a spattering of burnt salt. The flavor is in the meat, the rest just accentuates it.

But if you want the full experience, you also need a fried egg, some melted cheese, and a biscuit cooked gramma style with plenty of lard and a buttery crust. Mayo optional. This is enough calories to induce a 8 A.M. food coma.

I must contend with #* "Eve is dying."

Until we find the appropriate orifice to stick the thermometer in, and determine the appropriate girth for the thermometer, the evidence is inconclusive.

Are you a forum alt? Have you ever wondered why your experience on the forums is always so frustrating and unrewarding? This may help.

When I worked for an insurance company, I had one. Coming into the office during the morning and ripping the old day off was the highlight of my day.

I think we can agree that there's no such thing as a solo player in EvE.

I can agree with that. Or can I?

What are those . . . things? Crap-nugget infused muffins? Who would do that to a perfectly good cupcake pan?

is agreeing to disagree counter-productive to the aforementioned agreement?

Only if no one disagrees with you doing it.

It's possible they are bacon nuggets in those muffins. You might want to rethink your position.

IT is a truth universally acknowledged, that a massive multiplayer online roleplaying game called EVE Online must be in state of dying.

However little known the feelings or views of players of that game may be on their entering the EVE Online forums, this truth is so well fixed in the minds of the regular posters, that he is considered to be required to join the chorus of lamentation.
