Thread: I got an idea...

Here's my theory on it;
We recognize our posts usually make no sens, so it's amazing when a random post happens to match a well thought out one . It's pretty sweet to find out you got it right even if it was just a shot in the dark

I wonder: Why is it that whenever someone agrees with me on this board, they say something like:"Wow! I actually agree with billyjeff2!!", as if this is such an aberration? Each and every post I've ever made has been extremely well thought-out, and unassailably correct. Agreeing with what I have to say should be a given around here....

Oh, you are so right...don't you remember, I agreed with everything you had to say?
I believe it's the synaptical brilliance of your brain cells that dazzles me.

Billyjeff...just look at the first sentence of my first post!

The top individual tax rate should be no higher than the approval rating that Congress enjoys!

It was satirical in nature. It means that I don't think Congress should have more money to play with, than the measure of what their constituents think of them. IF that indeed were the case, you can bet your LAST dollar that they would try to do things a bit differently. Like please the folks who have to actually PAY for all their idiocy.
Like say...if it were automatic, when Congress's approval rating gets up to 14.7%, then they can levy a 14.7% tax on the country. Conversely, when their aproval numbers sink, guess what? My taxes go down.
It was just a thought. A whimsical thought.
So don't wrench your shoulder patting yourself on the back, just yet...

So I spent all that time and intellectual treasure responding to what you now tell me was nothing more than a whimsical post?!? Do you realize that had I not been duped by you into thinking you were serious, I could have directed my vast intellectual powers to finding a solution to global warming AND solving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict?
Have you any idea what your little folly has cost the good of all mankind? I hope you have learned your lesson. Now please excuse me while I direct my huge intelliect towards solving the conundrum of mis-aligned toilet paper perforations...

So when are you gonna get around to solving the puzzle of faster than light travel, harnessing the power of black holes and discovering the secrets of cold fusion and time travel? So many problems, so few Billyjeffs...
