Everybody is going insane here 😀 Reading the posts of this thread is fun & crazy 😎
I hope you didn't start at the beginning of the thread :blink: :hehe:
(I did a few days ago, to actually read the OP's first post and the still on-topic replies. It takes about 50 posts before this thread went wild. I think it had something to do with Jeff and pork chops. I still don't know what that means.)

lol 😀 Nah, I just read last 5-6 pages or 7 may be :hehe:

Oh you toooo... Out of curiosity (& enough time) I tried it once. I read 4 pages honestly then I lost my patience & joined the madness :hehe:

Pork chops is a projectile thrown in the face of someone who uses cursors, rbar and other forms of bad sql.

Kind of a more efficient and longer distance fish face flapping.

I think Jeff is the originator & certainly the most proponant user.

"Going"?

I'd have to drive a LONG distance in reverse to arrive at "crazy". :w00t:

I wonder if that really helps clarify anything if you have never seen Monty Python.

(cue Gus/Tom to discuss how this was actually a common practice for settling disputes in the Pre-Babylonian tribes, as mentioned by Snarfleblat in his seminal thesis "Cod Peace")

Well, per the French scholars Goscinny and Uderzo, it was actually the ancient Gauls who used this method of settling certain disputes. Usually disputes over musical quality, if I remember correctly. 😛

I don't remember that. Is it from one of the movies, or from the television series?

I believe they also used menhirs to slap each other 😀

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand...

back on-topic:

"How it could be?" Sounds like the title of a bad romance novel.

(not really nice of me to laugh with the language barrier)

Menhirs. Fish. Sledgehammers. Shields. Just plain fists. Building blocks for pyramids. You name it, they resolved a dispute by hitting someone upside the head with it!

I think I need to revive this resolution technique with the insurrance company here! Worse than useless (seriously).

From The Flying Circus, although it was apparently created earlier.

Let's not forget a Roman to slap another Roman with. Obelix always had a sense for recursion 😀

edit: that was a very brief moment of on-topic-ness.
