The Coop Causes Power Failure

    I've seen the coop blamed for so many things I'll add one to the list - the coop shut the power off in my house. Yesterday I was logged into my coop account then bam, power outage for about 1/2 hour.

    My girlfriend told me it was the violent stroms outside that knocked out the power...I laughed and explained to her how the coop can be the root cause of evertyhing, including power failures:rolleyes:

    Proof positive that
    A) the coop is evil
    B) the coop has a unique divine nature
    C) you're as nuts as the 'other guys'
    D) Shawn is making his move - expanding the coop to fulfill its intended role in his plan for world domination!!!

    I had a power down of a split second today. All PC's in the office instantly rebooted.

    I thought it was a PR update to be honest but now you mention it, one of my sites didn't validate today so I guess I'll join you and blame the damn Co-op.

    We're being attacked by the coop too, but so far, we're holding our own.

    The power line outside the house has a broken securing hook and is only being held up by the secondary fastening hook. It's gonna break for sure.

    I had at first thought this to be missed damage from the hurricane last year. However, having come across this, there is now no doubt in my mind, it's the coop that did it.

    I'm telling the power guy the coop did it too when he gets here!

    And thats the last anyone ever heard from famed forum member noppid. It was rumored that he managed a quick post just before they carted him off to the looney bin...but no one ever read it. Did the coop erase it..?

    I guess we'll never know.

    Well I asked a friend the other day if our snooker tournament could be ranked by past ability between a group of us to give everyone a chance and the more experienced people bypass each other so some sort of league type of idea and the organiser said he can only organise people first come first served so no league, just a free for all, after thinking about this now I realise there is devilish intent going on here.


    You just never know when this shit is gonna pop up and bite yer arse!
