Giant Jack

Macomb County

    O.K. signed, "Mr Orange and Funny", the joke's on me. I was going to say, if anyone takes growing AGs that seriously, they can have my tiller and tape measure. And I'll make my personal best winning an underwater basket weaving contest or starting my own line of designer toilet seat warmers. For those chilly nights when you hate to sit down.
    We've all gotten crushed seed in the mail, but these looked like they'd been laid-out and cut inhalf with a knife. "Grow these!" And taking 3 weeks to replace them sure had me going. I just wonder if Mr. OF is going to think it's so funny when I beat him with his own seed? Pay backs are a B.
    April 21st is when I'm starting my seed this year. For anyone whose interested, be there or be square. No excuses about starting late will be accepted in the Fall. I plan to do some major butt kicking or get a major butt kicking trying. There's no holding back this coming season, not with the orange seed I have.
    Which maybe I better examine more closely. I wouldn't want to be the victim of a play on the exploding cigar trick when I plant them. Right Mr. Orange and Funny? Boy, the things that happen to you when you don't have your gun, especially on this site. Smile!
I am very relieved.

Dude....Are you off your meds? Seriously, you seem to be a little out there on this posting...If you need a new seed just ask! No reason to get so hateful in your postings!

Secondly, you do reallize some younger growers are also on this site and you may want to tone down your threats and clean up your postings before you post them. Think about the example you are setting! Then again you may not care.

Why all the anger? Pumpkin growers kid with each other, compete, but this level of acrimonious behavior? Why? Three weeks in January is not a long timeto wait for replacements. After all, planting time , unfortunately is a few months away. The guy replaced the seeds through his person generosity and with the true spirit of this hobby>
Please.. lets not ruin BP.com with this stuff.

Cmon Jack, don't try and play the victim here...you set yourself up on a regular basis.

It was just yesterday, that you posted and were crying about this "mystery grower" who sent you and your daughter broken seeds and was refusing to replace them...cmon...now a day later the seeds have been replaced by said grower and you have the nuts to start posting again??

Look up "credibility" in the dictionary and don't wonder why yours is gone now.

Sorry but the Japanese have you beat on the toilet seat warmer thing.
I stayed a very nice hotel in Tokyo a few years back and they had this toilet seat that you have to see to believe: Heated seats PLUS, your choice of hot, medium, or cold water applied to your frontside, backside, or both (at controllable pressures, of course), with a blow dryer option. I think it was programable but lost interest after figuring out what the various buttons did. Had too much beer that night to have much attention span anyway. I'm not saying that I actually used it once, let's just say what happens in Tokyo stays in Tokyo.

This is getting out of hand...I've never seen anyone throw out threats on this website before. (except jokingly)
For some reason I sense this is more than a joke. It takes away from this site to have to see this stuff almost daily now. Maybe of we pretend like he is not here he will go away... :>)

An Internet troll is someone who posts offensive, controversial, or divisive material on an Internet community. Trolls are an unfortunately common occurrence on many communities across the Internet, and there are various steps which can be taken to combat them. If you are currently struggling with an Internet troll, the best thing to do is to walk away, since trolls feed on attention, and they will usually disappear if they are ignored.

The evolution of the Internet troll was a slow process which began as computer users started to more widely adopt the Internet. At first, the term referred merely to someone who was “trolling” for a response or opinion, in the same way that fishing boats cast out large nets to troll for a catch. Over time, trolls grew more aggressive, and the term began to be used specifically to refer to someone irritating or hurtful. In this sense, a troll could be compared to the nasty creatures of Scandinavian mythology which are also known as trolls.

There are a number of different types of trolls. In the most classic case, a troll harasses an Internet community for a few weeks, posting contradictory opinions or statements on bulletin boards in an attempt to stimulate a response. Internet trolls are differentiated from people who genuinely wish to present a different viewpoint by their attitudes and aggressiveness; their goal is not to discuss a situation, but to frustrate the members of a discussion board.
They often use fallacious arguments or attack the users of a site when they attempt to defend themselves from the troll's activities
