Where does this influx of TP's come from?  That's what I want to know.  We can't keep printing TP's without them being backed by a solid foundation of standard material value.  If I had a bottle of rum and drank half... then filled it with water... technically I have a full bottle of rum, but it's all watered down and will now take twice as much to get drunk.   That's what I think of this TP crisis.  With each new "TP Handout" generated and distributed willy-nilly to the masses... the less value each TP has. 

We're doomed.  I speculate that we'll have an ubuntu meltdown within the next 3-4 months unless the TP situation is taken care of.

Having instituted the Movie Line Trivia thread, I feel I am partially to blame for the TP crisis. I also performed well for awhile in the PAPOUPG thread, making me the Celticsblog equivalent to a dot com startup that exploded rather quickly overnight.

Dare I say it? Am I the Mark Cuban of Celticsblog??

157!!!!!!

I started this post about not wanting anymore TPs at 137 and now I have 157!  Do the math, that's 17 more TP's than before.

The Russians are also requesting that we stop using the American "Tommy Point" as the global currency and instead use their countries "Trofim Point".

Having not read the entire thread, let me suggest that Jeff institute a TP cap, with all posters over the cap forced to pay a luxury TP tax.

Payable in TPs?

Natch!
