Why do people on here always add an extra 'o' to the word "lose"?

Same reason that they spell separatism:seperatism, and they spell ridiculous:rediculous.

I can't stand Molson's advertising. Their ads have been especially obnoxious since that Joe Canadian guy. All they do is play up tired old Canadian stereotypes and put down Americans. And lately they can't even do that right. What does the strongest bladder deciding pit stops have to do with being Canadian??

^Because his role models are the unfunny trio of Alan Thicke, Pat Sajack, and Bob Saget.

Compared to Drew Carey, Bob Barker was to Price is Right as John Cleese was to Faulty Towers.

Here is my question:

How come we never hear about RIM anymore? And the accompanying shades of text colouring, dancing bananas, etc?

I expect answers!!

Bob Saget's not funny?

"Prestidigitation.. prestidigitation.. [audience laughter] I wish I had a dictionary..." *dictionary floats over* "Oh look.." [audience laughter]

Wait, never mind. I was confusing laughter with wanting to kill myself.

I think the other side of the free market has caught up with RIM. Yuppies have to cut back, Blackberrys, Starbucks, MacBooks, 8-balls of cocaine, toy stores for dogs, fancy dog food stores, fancy children clothing stores, SUV's and other things that humans really not need are being forgotten as the economy gets f'ed over.

And as a result, X (blackberry) is affecting Y (Wankers who live in Waterloo and like to brag about RIM) are being forced to cut back on their bragging as the value of RIM suffers.

WaterlooInvestor hasn't made a post in 2 or 3 weeks... he also deleted a whole bunch of his posts. Perhaps because of this? (deleted a whole bunch the same night) http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/showthread.php?t=155606

Despite an earlier opinion of mine that you couldn't brew a beer 'too strong' some of these beers are so strong you only want 1 bottle (many are in 750 ml bottles). They are like weak wine in terms of alcohol and can be quite heavy going to drink.

If anyone's buying, mines a cask conditioned 'real' ale.
