Please don't TP me

[LarBrd33]

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.

Well I'm willing to speculate. I feel that TPs will keep their value and likely will increase. Thus I'd be willing to buy.

If possible seek out a Lion with no courage, a tin man with no heart, a scarecrow with no brain, and a small little dog.

What do Odom, Gasol, Farmar, and Vujacic have to do with this discussion?

ROFL!!!   Too funny!   TP for the smile.... yes, Vujacic does remind me of a little dog.  A very irritating little dog.

We keep printing Tommy Points like there's no tomorrow.  Too many Tommy Points chasing too few good posts, and we're going to have inflation.  The TPPI is now running at 20% year-over-year; if we don't get things under control, we're going to have hyperinflation a la Argentia, which means that only posts about Manu Ginoboli will have any value. 

With that said...

Brother, can you spare a TP?

HAHA! TP for pointing out my indulgence !

[RAcker]

And, I am very happy to say that the TP I gave RAcker just put him into the 100 TP club!  Woohoo!  First time I ever got to do that. 

Thanks for the heads up on who put me over the top and for being that person.  TP back at ya.

Should I be taking a "Don't Blame Me" attitude?  Should we impose a TP moratorium and stop this trend of TP'ing like drunken sailors!  Are we just kidding ourselves about the value of the TP?  Are the TP traders down on Causway Street making inside deals and inflating the value?  Are there junk TP traders on Canal Street who are getting paid huge sums of TPs, while fully aware of the inevitable collapse?

Nahhhhhhh!!!!

At this rate the CelticBlog Tommypoint will be equal to the Myspace blog Kudo within the year.   Dark times ahead, folks.

Word on the street is that veteran investors are unloading their TPs, and are investing in the much more lucrative gold stars.

Of course I probably have at least one stars worth of posts dedicated to discussing TPs, counting TPs, noting that I've given a TP, begging for a TP etc...

WHAT!!!!  This is horrible!!  This isn't fair!!  Who voted for this? 

This is the Celticsblog equivalent to Animal Farm "All posters are created equal, some are just more equal than others."  The Golden Rule on Celtics Blog "He with the Gold Stars rules".  I won't stand for this!!! (of course if I didn't keep quitting in the mid 600's I'd have a few stars and I wouldn't be complaining) 

First I am left off the Celtics Blog hoops roster and now I and many others are stuck in the third class compartment while those with the gold stars dance on deck as our ship passes perilously close to the icebergs.

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?
