Indianapolis 500 has been won. (Spoiler alert)
Edited on Sun May-25-08 04:37 PM by A HERETIC I AM
Congratulations to Scott Dixon and the entire Ganassi Racing Team.

That better?

One of the reasons I'm so fascinated by this message board, I guess.

No end to the surprises.

2. Spoiler?
Sorry, pal, but by the time I posted this the news was 6 minutes old.

Move east if you don't like Pacific time programming.

Don't read message boards if you have a problem with timely information.

Use your fucking brain.

3. Is the race tape delayed on the West Coast?
Use your fucking brain.

Not everyone lets their lives be controlled by TV schedules.

Some of us tape programming and watch it when it's convenient.

This is a message board about the general discussion of political issues.

Please explain the political implications of the result of the Indy 500.

5. Do I give a fuck?
Edited on Sun May-25-08 04:15 PM by A HERETIC I AM
Who the fuck are you to scold me about what I can post in General Discussion?

I'm not concerned whether your fragile sensibilities are taken into consideration every time I decide to post something.

If for nothing else, the political implications of this thread and your response to it is to indicate to me how little I give a shit about your political views.

Lighten the fuck up already. Did I ruin your day? If I did, too god damned bad.

8. How dare you
Edit your post after I took the time to compose reply complaining about your excessive use of the underscoring?

If this is all something that you don't give a shit about then why is it worth a thread in GD?

Really.

12. Holy shit!
Have another cocktail, pal.

"How dare you"

Easily. I left off an HTML code, noticed after I posted and corrected it.

Really.

This is starting to make me smile.

7. No kidding
I have the F1 race taped for later, now it's not who, but how.

Please keep the spoiler in the thread, not the thread title.

11. some folks just relish in the basic
jerkiness. I doubt there will be any change to the subject line.

And to those who don't know - the race is tape delayed in media markets close to Indy.

14. Doubt all you want. I'll take the criticism and amend.
In spite of how absurd I think that criticism is.

I would have put this up in Latest Breaking News, but there is nothing on the wire that could be linked that soon after the race ended. I was surprised I was the first to post this in GD.

some folks just relish in the basic jerkiness.
Bite me.

6. Thanks for the info. I quit watching when Danica got hit. BTW, is there
some sort of DU rule about subject lines? If so, can you tell me where it is so I can read it? Thanks.

9. basic nettiquette.
General consideration - folks tend to post a thread title including *Spoiler* that indicates the end of programming is discussed so folks can chose to open the thread or not.

BTW, the race is tape delayed in Indiana (to get folks to go to the race). I listen on the radio, but know many folks who watch the delayed race in full, as if it was real time.

10. The rule is the Golden Rule
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

Maybe you've never heard of that one.

13. Thanks.
I am one who couldn't watch it - but don't have the patient of some of my hoosier friends - I listened and watched web updates.

Great race.
