Dead Horse Beating - DPChallenge Forums

Ok, this thread is dedicated to beating dead horses (but not how all the other threads are in that they are actually doing it) because it is a favorite passtime of mine

I mean, let's name as many dead horses as we can, and could someone post some of those little smiley things? : )

I'll start with the first one: the voting system's (insert noun) is all messed up

Is this a dead horse? Is my reply relevant to the subject of this thread?

If people don't judge and vote according to the definition and guidelines given for the challenge, then we might as well just enter flowers for pets challenges and sausages for vegetable and and and ...

Sorry, just had to go and take some medication.

"nobody understands my image, and obviously, it DOES meet the challenge, because wikipedia said that sometimes on cookie island, the people there tend to think about maybe interpretting the subjective wording of the challenge in a certain way that long ago, ancient cities drew stuff on how they thought that....."

- Digital Art is not photography!
- I don't want your comments
- I want your comments
- Joey this Joey that
...no offense JL, yer like a quirky nephew to me ;-)
- Is Canon better than Nikon?
- Pillow Fight! Thwap!!!
oops, how'd that one slip in there?
- Why can't we have larger images?
- The images need to be smaller to deter theft!
- Can we disable right-clicking??
- Why are voters so narrow minded?

I could go on, but I notice I begin to tangent to dead mules, squirrels and beavers.

I don't ever want to see another shot of a flower, tree, bird, animal, bug, baby, adult, sunrise, sunset, boat, car, motorcycle, water drop, wine glass, flag from any country, cemetery, park, playground, river, lake, beach, mountain, or any combination of the above. I hate pictures that make me sad, and humour has no place in the challenges. Pretty pictures are boring and icky pictures are just icky. I'll DNMC anyone who doesn't meet my narrow idea of the challenge, but anything that isn't out of the box scores low for boring me.
