Observations March 24, 2014 - Smite

#1 Post by SportsFan68 » Thu Apr 03, 2014 8:53 am

Today's observation is quoted with our thanks to Bored Sweeper from a post of January 14, 2009.

If there is a God, I'm going to assume He'd like me to smite this whole damn thread for Him.

I don't usually post MM observations, mostly because I'm quite often uncertain as to the source. However, I believe I'm safe in attributing Bored Sweeper to LB.

I was thinking to myself before I searched it that it would be rare to find "smite" outside a Biblical context, but I was wrong again. We have a lot of smiters on the Bored.

I was actually hoping for an Oral B Roberts post! He used that word quite a bit back in his Bored heyday....

Yes, there were lots of those. But I wasn't sure if that was you or Mini.

Are mini's MM's not good enough to use for Observations?
