Official SGT ADD thread
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.

Re: Official SGT ADD thread
In the northern Ontario town where I grew up, there was the warning sign on the work truck of a commercial painting company. In huge letters on the back of the truck:
CAUTION EXPLETIVES
KEEP BACK
As of last summer, the truck and it's sign are still in service.

Re: Official SGT ADD thread
I always found it disturbing when at BTMRR I would pass a room with high explosives. Why would you want to give dynamite drugs?
My opinions are mine and mine only. If my opinions are the opinion of others who happen to share whatever my crazy views may be, then fine, but it's not because I represent them in having my opinions. Got it?

If you've got access to my Facebook page, I took a pic last week of the plane that I boarded. In the Captain's window was a sign: BEWARE OF DOG
I never have my SLR along when it counts.

A sailing friend flew for United. When he was a co-pilot he occasionally flew with a captain that would stop after landing, open his side window, and put a rubber chicken under the windshield wiper. Always lots of gasps and pointing in the terminal when they pulled up to the gate.Big Wallaby wrote:If you've got access to my Facebook page, I took a pic last week of the plane that I boarded.

Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

I am surprised he was allowed to have a sense of humor. Everything I have ever heard from the flight attendants of that airline was that they were not allowed to do so.

Re: Official SGT ADD thread
Yep. In an effort to bring their airline's name down to three letters, they came out with a division named "Ted."hobie16 wrote:IBM has an airline?!?!
You should have heard the flight attendants discussing THAT one when they were getting ready to do it.
