    4stars bad ....3 stars good. Time to crank up the “ peaceful “ protest against the unfeeling 4 star social climbers who refuse to acknowledge the 3 star members are people too

    That's because he tried to make something of "Private Pyle," rather than packing him off to The Island Of Misfit Members.
    Of course the argument could be made that Parris Island is the home ground of military misfits- otherwise known as Marines! (no offence meant to those who serve or have served in the Corps)

    Thanks for the offer Joe. Let's do this instead: Let "them" have their fancy, high falutin' shindig with their finger sammiches, hors-d'oeuvres, etc.  The rest of us can hang outside, hire a band, bring our trucks (good idea Toolman), fire up a few grills, let the dogs run free (Buddy too Ken, he needs some freedom like everyone else.), maybe crack a jug or two, and really enjoy ourselves. What do ya think? (Remember, "...we ain't havin' fun 'til someone calls 911."

    Ah, that's ok Smitty, sugar melts and crap floats so, other than washing away, we're good. We've become comfortable with the Forum caste system.

    Before this goes South, I started this post in Jest for a few laughs.

    There is no slight intended to any Member here. Neither intentional or unintentional.

    I consider almost every one of you Friends that I enjoy spending time and talking with.

    Please take this Thread in that spirit.

    I wouldn't think anyone would take it serious. Having a get together with GB members has been discussed many of time with no result other than the appliance shoots yrs ago.

    Since no one seems to understand how stars are awarded or even what they signify, taking any of this post or the stars seriously would be hard to comprehend. I know I got a few chuckles out of it so I think ya dun good starting it.👍 Bob

    Last year's 4-Star ball was a bust.

    Whoever picked 'Thunder from Down Under' as the entertainment should be taken out and shot.

    The celery flavored tofu pate' was wonderful however, and the kale infused rainwater was a lively little after dinner pick-me-up.
    Freedom and a submissive populace cannot co-exist.

    (Okay, back on track.)


    I am thinking that the Marina Security around the Yachts, would frown upon a bunch of Rednecks having a Keg Party, Tailgating, Mud Roll, Yee-Haw on or around their decidedly Upper Crust Clientele. (Us) and the Owners of the very high end Yachts/Yacht We would be holding our 4 Star Members only party on.

    You would/could probably not all make it with your "Pickups" to Monaco anyway. Okay, the location is out. (Sorry.)

    Ken , never underestimate the ingenious things that a red neck can create with a roll of duck tape . Add a four wheel drive truck , a little baling wire and some plastic 55 gallon drums and stand back . Redneck yatchet heaven

    But, but, but I already bought my tickets to Bali and your changing it to Monaco? 

    Oh I get it! Misdirection to keep the riff-raff away. Yeah, yeah, that's it -see you in Monaco (wink, wink). Bob

    I apologize Chris and pulsarnc, your Redneckishness being beneath me, I am at a loss as to the "ingeniousness," your kind can exhibit.

    I leave you to your "Low Life" PBR, Weenie Roast/Pig Wallow, Er,..............Uhmn I mean Pig Roast.

    Look, I already sprained my pinkie finger training for this shin dig, so y'all better get serious now!

    Methinks other members may be exercising a different finger.😀 Bob

    It is not difficult to look down on people that are beneath you, FCD.

    Please get with the program.

    LOL, you are too much Ken. Not sure I can keep up with you on this, but I'll try.

    FCD, I realize the sprained pinkie finger can be annoying. Were I among the anointed 4 star elite, which I'm not, I'd be more concerned about long term damage to my neck from walking around, head up and back in order to properly look down my nose. Then there's the whole potential hip damage issue from swishing around the room while hob knobbing.

    Sashaying, not "Sachaying."

    Oh

    My

    God FCD, please use "Spell Check." We do not want to give "those People," any ammunition to supplement their meager arsenal to use against us. I am shocked. Shocked I tell you. How did you make it in here? Oh, I see you have 34K posts. You were probably Grandfathered in. (Sigh)

    Now it's Monaco? Guess I'll have to leave the truck at home and take a train.
    I was going to ask if I could show up with a one-star and get in but the party outside sounds like a whole lot more fun.

    And once again I am left out. No invite to join the Smoking Jacket Club and now my stars are lacking enough shine. I could take my marbles and go home in a huff, yet I have no marbles (lost them years ago) and I'm already home.

    No, no, no..................................................It's 4 Stars Matter.

    What's the matter (see what I did there?) with you people?

    Susie, Goat Herders need not apply. (Unless) You are offering up said Goats for BBQ. Then the Goats may attend. (You will have to wait outside, with your Farm Bretheren.) If you are willing to oversee the cooking of said Goats, you may be allowed in the Kitchen/Galley area. (Briefly.)

    This video was filmed some where around Mountain City, TN. Do we know anyone up that way? I think he used to be a 3 star.

    All right, who screwed up and gave select-fire the 4th Star?

    Seriously?


    (And to think,) It only took you 62,600 some odd posts select. 🤔

    All this talk about stars got me thinking.  Is there a way to see how you earned your stars?  I know if I look at my likes or LOLs, I can look how they were earned.  Things were so much simpler when we only had number of posts linked to members.  :)
    It's too late for me, save yourself.
