Television is bad enough. Watching the commercials will turn anyone into a drooling idiot.

Last I checked the commercials were the only thing left worth watching.

We've had DirecTV satellite twice and cable twice. Kept getting tired of paying all that money for the 3 channels we watched, 5 or 6 times a year.

And now for something completely different.

If you let your nose hair grow out instead of styling it, you wouldn't have this problem, you know.

Chris, don't take this the wrong way, but if that's the only television you are watching and you're still paying for it, I'm not the crazy person in this conversation.

And "Glee" is the equivalent of a frontal lobotomy by shotgun.

Well... that explains a lot. Perhaps you should stop watching it. I don't think you have much brains left at this point.

Would you care to clarify your statement before or after I file the complaint concerning the personal attack?

What nose?

I didn't know what else to call it. "Mono-nostril"? "Cerebral Access Port"? "Cooling Vent"? "Finger-warmer"?

I assume you are talking to me... so... here is the clarification.

You stated that watching Glee was like getting a lobotomy. I assume you know that because you have watched the show. Hence, you are received such procedure. A lobotomy is a procedure where brain connections are removed and/or cut.

So, I was juxtaposing the fact that the result you have gained from watching Glee is the loss of brain cells or at least brain connections.

I'm sure your procedure (Glee watching) has required me to explain a message that seemed clear enough.

All I can say is, stop watching Glee before it is too late.

# Nasal bone, small oblong bones that meet at the middle and superior part of the face. Their fusion forms the superior part of the bridge of the nose.

Bones of the Skull

* Ethmoid bone, sieve-like spongy bone located in the anterior part of the floor of the cranium between the orbits. The ethmoid is the principal supporting structure of the nasal cavity.
* Frontal bone, forms the forehead, the roofs of the orbits, and most of the anterior part of the cranial floor.
* Inferior Nasal Conchae, one of three scroll-like bones that project from the lateral wall of the nasal cavity. The inferior nasal conchae articulate with the ethmoid, maxilla, lacrimal and paltine bones and form the lower part of the lateral wall of the nasal cavity.
* Lacrimal bone, a thin scalelike bone, roughly resembling a fingernail in size and shape, at the anterior part of the medial wall of the orbit, articulating with the frontal and ethmoidal bones and the maxilla and inferior nasal concha.
* Mandible, the bone forming the lower jaw; the largest and strongest bone of the face, presenting a body and a pair of rami, which articulate with the skull at the tempromandibular joints.
* Maxillae, paired bones uniting to form the upper jawbone. The maxillae articulate with every bone of the face except the mandible, or lower jawbone.
* Nasal bone, small oblong bones that meet at the middle and superior part of the face. Their fusion forms the superior part of the bridge of the nose.
* Occipital bone, a single trapezoid-shaped bone situated at the posterior and inferior part of the cranium.
* Palatine bone, one of two irregularly shaped bones (L-shaped) forming the posterior part of the hard palate, the lateral wall of the nasal fossa between the medial pterygoid plate and the maxilla, and the posterior part of the floor of the orbit. The posterior part of the hard palate, which separates the nasal cavity from the oral cavity, is formed by the horizontal plates.
* Vomer, a roughly triangular bone that forms the inferior and posterior of the nasal septum.
* Parietal bones, one of the two quadrilateral bones on either side of the cranium forming part of the superior and lateral surfaces of the skull, and joining each other in the midline at the sagittal suture. The parietal bones form the greater portion of the sides and roof of the cranial cavity.
* Sphenoid bone, a single, irregular, wedge-shaped bone at the base of the skull, which forms a part of the floor of the anterior, middle, and posterior cranial fossae. This bone is referred to as the keystone of the cranial floor because it articulates with all the other cranial bones.
* Temporal bone, one of the two irregular bones on either side of the skull forming part of the lateral surfaces and base of the skull, and containing the organs of hearing. The temporal bones form the inferior sides of the cranium and part of the cranial floor.
* Zygomatic bone, the triangular bones on either side of the face below the eyes, commonly referred to as the cheekbones, they form the prominences of the cheeks and part of the outer wall and floor of the orbits.

BOb, it appears that you are confused on several points.
I don't have to be exposed to something directly to be aware of the dangerous effects of being exposed.

You also seem to believe that I am, if not actually stupid, at least not as intelligent as you think you are.

That is always a mistake.

Whatever you're problem with me is, it is in your best interest to keep your opinion to yourself.

Doctor Doogie calls it the 'middle meatus.'

Wait.. now you are telling me you have an opinion on a show you have never watched. Well.. that must be based on, erm, nothing but speculation. So forgive me if I dismiss it out of hand.

Seriously? When did I say that? Please could you quote from a message I posted where I stated that?

Am I supposed to take this as a threat? Why are only YOU allowed to state your opinions of people and things and I must keep mine to myself? That doesn't seem very fair now does it?

Ok, your move. I've captured all of your pieces though... all you've got left is 1 pawn and your king. So... perhaps you should concede. Tell you what... you get one more message and it will be the last word. Cause I am certainly not going to reply to you. I have better things to do, like watch Glee.

Spoiler:

If anyone thinks any of my message above is in anyway serious, well now you know, it's not.

Well, I'm all about the "superior". Still, nothing there mentions where to keep my finger warm.

And I think Doctor Doogie has a doctorate in AWESOME.

You deny saying this?

Evidence proves television is bad for you. Any show that inspires such rabid fans is clearly very bad for an independent thinker.

What threat?
Personal attacks are against MR rules.
Just reminding you.
