You're a nice guy and all, and I wish you well, I really do. But these self-congratulatory threads are beginning to wear thin now that you've moved into multi-ribbon territory. They are really rubbing me the wrong way. It's boastful and immature. Especially when you tell me you're gonna crush my head. The voters are doing that already, friend; I don't need no stinkin' sumo to rub the point in, OK?

Dear Bear,
I'm not a nice guy, and I probably resent you calling me that. ;-)
I use this forum for virtual entertainment. I'm not here to please anybody, only to please myself. If somebody else gets pleased along the way, that's fine by me. I'm not a politician, so I don't act politically correct, which is fine with me.
I don't attach a lot of importance to ribbons here. That's probably what lies at the foundation of our differences in thinking, and rubs you the wrong way. Sorry about that, as I think you truly are a nice guy. Maybe I'm done with this type of thread, maybe not. I may never get another ribbon, so I try to make hay while the sun shines.
The Red Ribbon Sumo will crush your head with his Sumo Skillz, not photography or voting skillz. So please don't misunderstand that. :-)
Sometimes in ice hockey games, if somebody scores a hattrick, fans will throw their hats onto the ice, then the game has to be stopped for a while to clean up the hats. Fun!
except the same player has to score three goals in the same game.
at UNH people would throw a large frozen fish on the ice. that was always more fun than hats... i don't think 'fish trick' would fly though...

A "hat trick" is three of the same thing ...
