What? You no-good, two-timing bum, seeing another board behind my back! Sheesh.

Oh? You've spotted me skulking around over there to play games? You must be mistaken. That's probably some other Annie in a silver Camaro. All us brown dogs with wheels look alike, you know.

Never mind.

Let's find Christie and see if cheese curds could maybe be on the menu in the Moratorium Lounge.

I'll bring some pickled herring.
Well, then

I don't know if you can really label Jeopardy "conservative" or "liberal." It might not have traditional family values, but I think three consenting adults should be allowed to get together and play whatever "games" they enjoy. It's all about life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

Password started it. Two couples get together to play games and then they swap partners. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

They are progressive and liberal.

Okay, so how is it that I get pulled into this!

:D

Does someone think they should start a partisan food thread?

Um, no, I won't post in it!

:P

Obviously, one major dish would have to be pork and sauerkraut.

And moose stew would be tasty, too.

Ok, this is just freaky. Now we're talking on the WWTBAM Bored about the political affiliations of those on the Jeopardy site? Are the members there also talking about where the WWTBAM crowd falls? Do they have polls on the Jeopardy site? Are there WWTBAM/political counterparts located there; e.g. Daniel and Bob J?

I'll wait patiently for a full report.

The J! political thread is notable, chiefly because they rarely indulge in off-topic posts there. Unlike here. :wink:

And just looking at the start of that thread, I see it's the one and only post of the person who started it. That person says he/she is a "3-time Jeopardy winner, 1991," but he/she certainly isn't an established member of that community. More like a troll. (No offense, eyegor!)

They stayed a bit on topic even in that thread. Someone was complaining about leaving the "!" off Jeopardy!, which apparently is a big no no. :)

Most of the political posters on the J! board are somewhere to the left of Lenin. They rarely discuss WWTBAM because, you know, J! is so superior to other game shows.

Speaking of politics, is your avatar Sarah Palin at the firing range?
Enough already. It's my fault! Get over it!

That'll be $10, please.
