Listen up all... at the time I started this thread, I had exactly 49,999 posts. And when I logged off earlier today, I had 50,008. But then for some reason, when I logged back in, I had 498-something. Which means some thread got deleted...and I don't know which one.

I was NOT bluffing; I will lock up this thread and re-unlock it when my tally reaches 50K again.

That's no answer to my question. Even if you think they're fun, PBG threads are a complete waste of time and space.(Not that I mind - I post there myself) It makes no difference if you like word/name associations and things like that. When you think of it, 94.6% (rough estimate) of all threads and posts on inthe00s.com are in fact a complete waste of time and space, so please don't tell me you never post on that kind of threads. That's boloney!

Congrats, Jeff... it takes time and work to get to that point... (and determination, I suppose :0)

PBG are not a TOTAL waste of time. I don't consider it as much of a waste of time as watching TV. TV, to me, allows us to use less brainpower and have less concentration. At least with the PBG you can gain some knowledge, challenge yourself a bit, and have some fun. Now something that we could ALL benefit from is maybe just do those from time to time, but also get out and smell some fresh air, as well. You can balance things in such a way without calling it a "waste of time."

Allright, it may not have been the best way to put it.
