Been in constant disagreement with codell the last few days, and have argued with him on other points in the past as well. We somehow always seem to hold opinions that are at odds with each other. Its still a bit early I guess, but a small rivalry is sorta developing. So. Just thought it would be a fun thread for others to name their BBS rival, or who they feel is their rival. I can think of a few rivalries, but I'll leave it up to people to post it themselves, I'm sure there are quite a few. There are also different type of rivalries, some more heated, some more funny; I'll leave it to you to define "rivalry" for yourselves. PS: I don't mean this to be a flame thread. I think it there is a certain amount of respect involved when you consider someone else your rival. This is the respect that forces the urge to click on the reply button, and not ignore. Hopefully this thread doesn't get out of hand!
FranchiseBlade and I argue about just about everything point-for-point... but I love the guy! Others not quite as intense (except for the love): andymoon, glynch, deckard.... others I'm sure.
"PS: I don't mean this to be a flame thread" Every thread you start is a flame thread....BRING IT ON ! Kidding
Hey I was just about to post you as my rival also. I agree it's all in good spirit, and I don't think we have ever gotten personal in our disagreements. I would be very sad if Giddy wasn't around to debate with. Most other disagreements seem to evaporate pretty quickly. There just isn't an interest in one or both sides in finding out more, but with giddy we both really try and explain ourselves fully and also read and try and understand where the other person is coming from as much as possible.
Codell. "Curses!" Codell pooh-poohs my trade AGAIN ! Where is the justice! Oh, the humanity! Happy Thanksgiving to you and family, btw.
rivalries are built up over time -- a tradition of confrontation hey you just argued with me!! weekfromtoday is my rival
