A place to be entertained. Videos, jokes, games, and more.
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Not 'that' bad.

I knew he wasn't going to last when he pulled the whole "No peanuts on a plane?? That will COMPLETELY INTERFERE with my CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS TO LIFE, LIBERTY, AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS!!1!!11!! That is the worst crime against humanity EVER!!" thing.
Mayonnaise, that was a lovely and clear takedown of passive-aggression you posted a while back.

What, the 1982-vintage IBM PC with the dual full-height floppy drives wasn't clue enough? Do they even *make* 5-1/4" floppies any more?
That last was a rhetorical question. To save the compulsive among you from wasting your time, yes they do. <floppydisk.com> and <floppydisks.com> are the two primary vendors.

Now floppy drives on the other hand are no longer in production by anybody.

I love peanuts. I love being in the peanut gallery. But I'm kinda picky, it's becoming harder to get the peanuts I like. :(

I still have an unopened box of 5 1/4 diskes, as well as a drive. (it IS in my "old media" storage box, along with a zip drive!)

And we loose the topic at hand again! Woot!
"A little swordplay, now and then, keeps my mind off sheep!"
"You're messing with my Zen thing, man."
"Dreams are as portals,
flat visions of misty places,
fragments bound below my surface,
but I can write dreams,
they flow from me,
inscribed but now unbound,
I touch them,
and they are real,
and they are real."
