SOTD posting resumes with a very funny PTW diplomacy screenshot... (Hint: note the spelling ;) ):

I guess his resolve to stay on the weight watchers diet was wavering and he felt he needed some support and encouragement.

Thanks to Shambolica for the screenshot.
 
Those earth colored robes help swell the waistline to the eye...
 
Woo Hoo [party][dance] SOTD is back!! [dance][party]

Osman sounds like he either likes Hammurabi or he wants to eat him :eek:
Either way I think that I would attack him first before it's too late.
 
He's scared of sweet things? :confused: :lol:
 
I don't get it. The grammer of that sentence is correct yet people think it's funny and/or wrong? Just goes to show how much the "bling bling" crap has corrupted the language.
 
I think you might of missed it Ozy. It says 'treat' instead of 'threat'.

so, it makes sense for Osman to say:

"...and we will fend off this treat together!"

you don't think he meant:

"...and we will fend off this threat together!"

Wow, do you deserve a ;) or a :rolleyes:?

Well, you get a :lol: anyway.
 
Yay, tree cheers for funny screenshot! You tought screenshots were gone? Tink again! Tese tings rock! Now go read anoter tread.
 
I think he was trying to imply that Cleopatra had been partaking of too many treats of late, and was trying to find a diplomatic way to get her to lay off the banana splits.
 
:lol: :crazyeye: :rolleyes: :eek: :confused:
NOw that my mixed emotions have passed I think I will go have a threat!
 
Took me awile to figure out what the whole Weight Watchers connection was with the screenshot. But i figured it out eventually. Oh "treat not threat" i get it!
 
Well, I guess the guy who wrote these lines into PTW had a nice staff job at Central Command in '01 :lol:
 
:rolleyes: and it's grammar, not grammer

I think you should post an explanation thread where you explain all the grammar jokes about the screenies for the non-english native speakers :D Because only after reading it I would not have get it but after reading all your nice and kind explanations ;) I got the joke, ok it's funny :D

The explanation thingy would be helpful for everyone as it seems that even the native speakers have trouble understanding their own language ;)
 
From now on, in all forums, threat shall be replaced with "treat"
 
I'll be the first to take the blame...

...and lay it directly on Microsoft Word's spell checker! :mischief: *dodge*


Seriously though, that is a pretty clever find...
 
:lol: :lol: :lol: :p
BTW, I always thought Osman was a little, uhhh chubby.
Nice screenie
And, from now on, we never use the letter H any more! Waoo! :crazyeye:
