I never understood "burn a mule"


Not sure why, but call me JJ.
I used to hate math but then I realised decimals have a point.

Well with so many people posting opinions stated as facts, its nice to know which people admit that what they are posting IS their opinion. ;)

fixed


Speaking of 'fixed', on other forums i visits people are always doing that, but they quote what you said, edit it in some way to make it funny to them somehow, thus not really fixing anything....

Personally, IMHO, there are no terms that annoy me generically. It is more when certain specific people use them :D

FTW!

I think those who pull the trigger should try to bite the bullet. It might solve the problem.


Well they are all liars, cause if they pulled the trigger they wouldn't be in any position to bite a bullet, or even make a post... next time they should make sure it is loaded before they pull the trigger.

You have failed to account for the possibility of them missing the target! :lol:

Far Out. 100% agree. Great shot! Practice, practice, practice.

Wait a minute, I use these stupid forum lingo:(

IMHO, we all should stop but YMMV!


Too much stuff, not enough shooting time.

Oh you're going to hell for that one :p

I have to agree though - I really don't care who is buying what, from where and when it will arrive. I want to see great photos which inspire me to try harder and to have a gear forum to go to for help with technical/technique problems. Brown trucks, pulled triggers and the rest of the public boasting in there holds no interest for me.

how about IMO or IMHO.
If YOU are posting it then I sure as hell know its not MY opinion you are writing.
Just spit it out already!

Well, I use IMNSHO (In My Not So Humble Opinion) at times knowing it's not your (or anyone else's for that matter) opinion and I try not to come across as a "know-it-all", as I believe I'm very inexperienced in the world of photography.

At that point, I usually do spit it out...and spend the next 2 hours trying to clean my monitor ;)

QUOTED IMAGE

I couldn't figure out which one to do, so
I bit the bullet and pulled the trigger, the mule died, but he did give 140%, but that upset all the Noinkers, so they took their D40's w/flash and pummeled me:

Now I know what I forgot, I need to go out and pull the trigger a few times on my gold cup (I'm sadly out of practice).

So, rather than be judgemental toward people on how they behave, you have chosen to simply randomly select people to hate on?!
