Two years ago, I'd probably have deleted that out-of-hand. Today, I cut-and-pasted it to share with my boss.electrode wrote:Speaking of hormones and wive's that don't listen...here is a good joke.
Deaf Sex
Two deaf people get married and during the first week of marriage they find that they are unable to communicate in the bedroom with the lights out since they can't see each other signing, or read lips. After several nights of fumbling around and many misunderstandings, the wife figures out a solution.
She writes a note to her husband: 'Honey, why don't we agree on some simple signals? For instance, at night, if you want to have sex with me, reach over and squeeze my left breast one time. If you don't want to have sex, reach over and squeeze my right breast two times.
The husband thinks this is a great idea. He writes back to his wife that if she wants to have sex with him, reach over and pull on his penis one time. If she doesn't want to have sex, pull on his penis two hundred and fifty times.

Yeah right! This was MY thread you guys hi-jacked...I have no idea how to jack my own thread New people need to realize that this isn't like the other sites where egos rule. We have very little of that here and the super stars usually come and go pretty quickly. It's nice that total noobs can show up here and ask questions without fear of ridicule...they just can't fear a thread-jack...cause it's gonna happen...when Farmboy shows upelectrode wrote:So after their first hijacked thread they should know us pretty well, huh?

The only reason I became so connected to this forum is because of how laid back it is. The fact that you can thoroughly AND I MEAN THOROUGHLY derail these thread time and time again and still answer the persons question is what makes it awesomeexnailpounder wrote:Yeah right!

I've read other, shorter versions that appear to come from this document - I think that's an excellent write-up on 4943Arclight Ironworks wrote:We've jettisoned the use of 4043 for 4943 on 6xxx TIG back in 2015. Our decision was based on the net gained increase in yield/tensile strength of welded 4943, especially in fillet joints. From our perspective, the added Mg of 4943 provides a subtle edge in weld pool fluidity and wet-in during arclight. 4043 is fine and is used everyday by fabricators with excellent results. Our LWS also supports our interests and sources the 4943 in 10# stacks for us at an excellent price.
5356 and 4047 are additional weapons of choice for us, based on 5xxx, cast, and Anodized applications. Other Aluminum alloy fillers ride along for fringes for unique applications and base metal matching.
If you are unable to weld properly using 4043, 4943 will not solve your issues. Focused hood time via training, intent, and material preparation will.

Members bragging about "teaching" this stuff to young people is even worse.
I'm not saying I've always shown perfect judgement online, I'm human so clearly I haven't.
Good question I set my halo down at a party one night and never saw it again. Nowadays, young kids are sexting dirty pics to each other and screwing the teachers...and welders who have been participants in life are the new scourge....we need a "shaking my head" emoticon.PeteM wrote:Does barkeepers friend polish a halo?
Cause mine is a little tarnished. And dented. At the pawn shop.

Yeah, the sexual references show the hidden 12 year-old in all of us, and it's a place we don't really need to go, unless the joke is truly flawless and not utterly tasteless. I'll confess to a bit of that on the thread derail of our new "Mick" from OZ, where it descended into strange town names.MinnesotaDave wrote:
