| Re: SoST: FINALS: Arthur Dayne vs Barristan Selmy I knew i was in the bible somewhere ![]() Also a thing called Déisme exists, and it is a religious philosophy i might even accept if i where forced to accept the existence of a god, wiych thankfully i do not have to do , anyhoo ^^ we'd best not get into the religion thing too much cause i dont wanna be bombed by a fanatasist (my last name in RL is Dée aka Déisme - TMI probably) Boaz, what does BFD mean. Ow just a small reminder that the bold has just made a gap |

| Re: SoST: FINALS: Arthur Dayne vs Barristan Selmy BFD was supposed to be a joke on two levels. First, Aegon mistakenly posted "Barristan freakin Dayne". He either meant Barristan freakin Selmy or Arthur freakin Dayne... but it came out Barristan Freakin Dayne. BFD. Second, in the U.S. we sometimes use acronyms, actually we love acronyms! BFD is used to show how little or how much we care about something. It comes from Big Freaking Deal... except we don't mean freaking, we mean the Queen Mother of dirty words. You could use bfd like this, "John got an IPod for Xmas? BFD, I went to LA." BFD is not to mistaken for BFE. BFE means some place far away... as in Bum Freak Egypt, but again we don't mean freak, we mean the real deal. You could use bfe like this, "Dude, sorry I'm late. I can't belive the crowds. I had to park in bfe. The best satire I can recall of Americans love of acrostics is in Good Morning Vietnam. Robin William's character takes this to an all time high. I have no idead if other cultures do this to the extent that we do. Yes, I know this is not the forum or thread to have this discussion. So to stay in proper form, I'll finish by saying "Go AFD!" |

| Re: SoST: FINALS: Arthur Dayne vs Barristan Selmy To quote Homer Simpson, "I am so smart... S M R T!" Actually I'm taking my niece and nephew to the movies tomorrow and we always get slurpees! Yahoo! But the movie theatre only has cherry and coke flavors, no blue raspberry. Poor Wiggum, his championship thread has been hijacked... Oh well, bfd. |

| Re: SoST: FINALS: Arthur Dayne vs Barristan Selmy We ususally say "BS'ing." I must say that I'm impressed with Wiggum's advanced voting process. The lack of chad problems is very encouraging. Although the early reports on voting returns is sometimes disheartening. |

But a lot of you have stuck through the process which has made this a lot of fun. Although Bronn should have won it all, even while drunk and unarmed. | |
