Is that supposed to be some kind of euphemism?
i’m finally proud to tell the world i’m american. we need to stop the hate and division and come together like the great country we are. lets make the future a brighter place for all to live!
Uh…yeah, okay.
/me backs away slowly from the loon crapping rainbows.
You might want to wait until the military’s out of Iraq and Afghanistan before saying anything like that…
Yeah, I’m English. My respect for America and its people went waaaaay up after hearing about Obama’s win.
sank
He looks very thrilled to have his battleship sunk… he is enjoying this way too much. I can’t remember a time when i actually having fun playing battleship kinda like monopoly.
thats probably because you play them alone
that because i win!
wow my gammarz at teh badz. that is suppose to be had not having
Because Monopoly isn’t fun.
Monopoly is too fun! You just have not played it with the right people.
Because when you really love someone…..Wait a second. What the hell am I saying? Neither Battleship or Monopoly is fun!
Umm… if you’re going to use the word neither, it must be followed by NOR, not or. Just saying.
The past tense of “sink” is SANK.
http://dictionary.weather.net/dictionary/sunk
Hmm….
Both sunk and sank are acceptable.
http://dictionary.weather.net/dictionary/sank
Sunk is only 100% proper when it is in a full past perfect structure i.e. the caption should read “you HAVE sunk my battleship”
*checks your name* Yep that counts. Presenting, in full color and WANG-O-VISION!!!
My wangs and his sidekicks, beware, they are a couple of nutty characters guaranteed to teste your tolerance for bad puns…
In bed.
*wang…
*headdesk*
???
Oops, my bad. Grammar SS already present…
HEIL!
Turning?
Is that like the song Turning Japanese? Cuz I was born in Okinawa… >_>
You really think so?
Simple past is sank but past perfect is “have sunk”. This structure comes straight from Germany. He is in fact still wrong with the caption though. Fun fact though “I have swum” is technically the grammatically correct sentence.
Ich habe geschwommen.
Ich habe ‘was getrunken is a better example but most of our irregular verbs come from Germany.
leasy he didn’t “you done sinked” it.
But the commercials always said sunk.
spelling fail – send in the fail boat. or the fail battLEship.
Who do you think she’s voting for?
Nader
naah….she wrote herself in…
He does seem awfully happy to get his battleship sunk.
Then again, winning or losing isn’t necessarily the most important thing in a “game”, unlike in the elections.
One time, I was playing Battleship with my son and he said “I-1″ and I was like NO WAY! YOU CHEAT! And he was all like laughing and making fun of me and I was all like OMG, you didn’t win…
That was way too much fun.
isnt it against the rules to talk to someone while you vote?
oh gee. i wonder who sponsors this site…see tshirt add. unbelievable.
These are the same people who have been b%tching and moaning for months that ALL the lols featured McCain/Palin and there were NO Obama lols, wah wah wah, right?
The T-shirt ad I just looked at on this page had one shirt that said “Barackstar” and one shirt that said “Obamanation”. What, exactly, are we supposed to be concluding from that?
Yes. Unless you’re just doing a photo-op.
I see no t-shirt ad. HOORAY FIREFOX!
Haha, WIN.
A bunch of liberal ass-hats run/ruin this site. If it wasn’t so damned much fun pissin’ them off I wouldn’t waste my time here. My eventual vindication will be severe shock on all the ass-hats faces when it’s time to pay up for the “CHANGE” they voted for.
Perception fail. I’m not pissed. I pity you. Sorry you have nothing else to do but get off on insulting people from the privacy of your mom’s basement. Go out. Get some sunshine. Make a friend. You’ll find it’s a lot more fulfilling than being a pitiful, lonely troll. Read my link. You’re pathetic.
minerva its my turn to remind you of the memo, dont feed the trolls.
I think bob will learn one day that his eventual vindication will be when mouths
off to the wrong person because its “so damned much fun pissin’ them off”, and
ends up getting shot, stabbed, or hopefully made into a man-b*tch in prison.
With all that hate he’s bound to find his way into big house by doing something stupid.
And just to clarify, I didnt wish death on him… just butt rape-age. Big difference.
I could whack him with my troll stick *holds stick up hopefully*
Id be a troll too if it meant you had to whack me…
I may have to go whack someone tonight…….hehe
What? Is the mighty camera man needed? Its been a slow week..
we’re in a recession after all.
Is it Whacking Day already??
This one’s really too pathetic to even beat with a stick anymore. Too easy. I thin Tom Trifik secretly wants to belong to the Logic League. That’s probably why he picked a superhero sounding name.
I know. Sorry. I purposely refrained from participating in the flame war he started this afternoon. Just figured I’d head this one off at the pass. I’ll try not to do it again.

“Why do trolls do it?
I believe that most trolls are sad people, living their lonely lives vicariously through those they see as strong and successful.
Disrupting a stable newsgroup gives the illusion of power, just as for a few, stalking a strong person allows them to think they are strong, too.
For trolls, any response is ‘recognition’; they are unable to distinguish between irritation and admiration; their ego grows directly in proportion to the response, regardless of the form or content of that response.
Trolls, rather surprisingly, dispute this, claiming that it’s a game or joke; this merely confirms the diagnosis; how sad do you have to be to find such mind-numbingly trivial timewasting to be funny?
Remember that trolls are cowards; they’ll usually post just enough to get an argument going, then sit back and count the responses (Yes, that’s what they do!). ”
New link.
So let me derail the troll thread by saying I love all you females with your huge…… brains.
My husband is grateful for all of my assets.

A monster in the Munchkin card game is named the Net Troll. It is described as having “no special powers, and is really mad about it.”
lol, win.
I now remember why I have to buy those cards… I’ve played but haven’t had the spare loot to fetch them for myself. >_<
I’ve not played yet, but it looks like fun. Looks like they removed my impersonator’s posts. yay.
Munchkin is indeed awesome.
You start the game as a “Level one human with no class. (heh, heh.)” Then things just get better.
.
I also like the ‘stoned golem’, if you can’t kill him or run away, he has the munchies and eats you. And the ‘Unspeakably Awful Indescribable Horror’.
Oh, serious WIN1
Um… You’re not a zombie, are you, Max?
[nervously puts on hat in hopes of disguising ginormous head]
Isn’t it spelled “battleship”
LOL i didn’t even catch that. wlel you kwon waht tehy say you olny need to see the frist and the lsat lteters of a wrod in oderr to udnertasnd waht is bieng siad as lnog as the rset of the letetrs taht are in the mdidle are in the atcual wrod… psychology ftw
Yeah, all i can think, when i read that, is that the guy that invented word check must feel left out when he reads that.
Isn’t there supposed to be a question mark after “battleship”?
Spelling Fail. BattELship? I think NOT!
SUNK
I can’t tell if you’re agreeing with me, or what?
FAIL! SPELLING FAIL!
Its a LOL you guys… spelling isn’t the most important part.
It is if you are going to post it on these forums….
Really? You’re going to argue spelling on a forum whose main site is “I CAN HAZ CHEEZBURGER?” Seriously, your argument point is going to be spelling and not the delivery of the intended message to the prospective reader. That is ridiculous, incomprehensible, preposterous. Jow’z dat fur zpelyin kurekdlie.
Very clever, minus the spelling eroror.
See, you’re missing the point of the comment, reading waaaaayy too much into it. Anyone born before 1987 knows this is funny. Here comes the historic info. In the TV (that stands for Television) commercials the kid that was playing battleship with the family would excitedly, with a biiiiiiig smile say “YOU SUNK MY BATTELSHIP!” Therefore, funny.
The spelling error is in reference to MATTEL toys, M A T T E L, B A T T E L… Wait a moment, it’ll come to you.
FAIL! CENTS OF HOOMORE FALE ON DUH SPELLLIN’
as long as you still got ur Destroyer,
it could be anyones game.
That thing’s a tricky little sonofabich.
I didn;t write this. I’m now being emulated by trolls.
They were thoughtful enough to copy and paste my link. I think I hit a little close to home.
They say imitation is the highest form of flattery. They wish they could be as full of awesome as you.
Wow, You’re really mature. And you have proved my point by continuing your pathetic hijacking of my identity.
minerva, you full of much win today… take the hijacking as a compliment. It’s pretty amusing that a troll like this thinks to piss you off by a [fail] imitation; methinks the self-same troll would react pretty violently if the tables were turned – always assuming it has anything like an actual personality that it displays anywhere.
ARE… you ARE full of much win. Teh capshun, it eated mai grammar en spelling.
HeHe thanks. Yeah, no one wants to emulate him and he uses too many socks to keep up with, but you’re probably right.
LOL, Thanks. He has no idea why people don’t find his efforts funny.
