Making fun of someone for using AOL is like making fun of a cripple for using a wheelchair.

Behave!

[Suki]

HA! I was making fun of that chubby chaser game they play. The world is still big enough for AOL users, trapped in that AOL intertube dial-up monopoly. LOL

Tony: Greece's problem is not that it spent too much money but that it doesn't control the currency. We control the currency and don't spend enough money so there is nothing to learn from Greece, except that we don't spend enough money.

There are lots of things to learn from Greece. Off the top of my head:
1. When you treat people like babies, they act more like babies.
2. When you act like a baby, you have to be treated like a baby.
3. When you crap your diapers, there is no dignity -- national or otherwise.

We don't spend enough?
Total "on budget" federal public debt outstanding 1/30/2012:
$15,295,052,578,718.01
Divided by US population 2/1/12 13:48 UTC:
312,944,225
Per capita:
$48,874.69
And about half pay no net federal taxes:
$97,749.38 per taxpayer
That doesn't include Medicare or Social Security obligations.

Yep, the left is now fully invested in this myth that if you can print your money, you can run up unlimited amounts of debt without concern. Too bad some of us remember Argentina, the Weimar Republica, etc. etc.

Not to mention Angola, Austria, Belarus, Bolivia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Brazil, China, France, Georgia, Greece, Hungary, Krajina, Mexico, Nicaragua, Peru, Philippines, Poland, Srpska, Romania, USSR, Taiwan, Ukraine, Yugoslavia, Zaire and Zimbabwe.

Speaking of Zimbabwe, what is the highest denomination note at present?

I missed out on the Z500,000,000 Note.

But the real question is: does the judge play Call of Duty or Battlefield? These questions must be asked and Suderman is just the person to do it.

[Peter Suderman]

Call of Duty, I hope.

[sarcasmic]

Medal of Honor

[SugarFree]

Honor of Duty 6: Battlefield Same Fucking Game As Before, coming March 2012.

[sarcasmic]

Play online with the same base-camping spawn-killing assholes as before!

[Tim]

Suderman, Suderman, does whatever a Suder can...

Aresen,

The Zimbabwe dollar is out of circulation. I believe they use the US Dollar now.

You can still find Zimbabwe banknotes on eBay.
