Google - special image
Live / MSN - special theme

But Yahoo had one for Cinco De Mayo?

Fuck you Yahoo.

Fletch XXX · 11-11-2008, 07:24 AM

this really matters to you? lol

Lycanthrope · 11-11-2008, 07:25 AM

Yes it does

CIVMatt · 11-11-2008, 07:25 AM

Shitty Yahoo

JimmiDean · 11-11-2008, 07:30 AM

It actually matters to me too.
\what a bunch of assholes

Lycanthrope · 11-11-2008, 07:31 AM

I will.

I thought others, especially other veterans, might share my disgust and should know about it.

But silly me forgot that most (US) people here think serving their country means operating a tapper during spring break.

seeandsee · 11-11-2008, 07:31 AM

you are too much into net

Vicious_B · 11-11-2008, 07:33 AM

I think that is messed up too. Veterans day is worth more acknoledgement than Cinco De Mayo.

StuartD · 11-11-2008, 07:33 AM

So wait... when there's an election and non-Americans have an opinion, we're all chastized and pelted with rocks since we should have no opinion what so ever on anything American.

But when you have a holiday, every site on the net should be themed up to tell the world about it?

Lycanthrope · 11-11-2008, 07:49 AM

I will never chastise anyone for having an opinion.

Every site? No, but a site owned by a US entity? Yes - especially if they will go out of their way to honor non US occasions.

And my (US) clarification was simply to point out the group I was talking to. Most non us citizens are fairly patriotic, and I would expect sites ran in their respective countries to honor THEIR holidays / days of remembrance.

Cinco de Mayo is recognized by US. Its a big holiday in many states.

The people using it as their angle on this discussion, must not know what the day signifies.

Fletch XXX · 11-11-2008, 08:04 AM

ps: this thread isnt accurate.

the top articles are:

http://www.yahoo.com/s/985608 "World marks 90th anniversary of Great War"
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20081111/ap_ca/obama "Obama to mark Veterans Day with wreath-laying"

"no acknowledgment" seems far fetched.

Lycanthrope · 11-11-2008, 08:09 AM

Actually, the top article was about Lindsey Lohan and her "friend".. with a big picture included.

Automatic feeds do not constitute acknowledgment.

IM not trying to argue here, but you claimd no acknowledgement, so i typed in yahoo and top articles were about "war and vets"

i have nam vets (green beret) and iraq vets in my family. but whining over SE logo graphics seems a bit lame.

Fletch XXX · 11-11-2008, 08:14 AM

anyway, heres to the Vets who dont need acknowledgment.

One vet in my family always says "dont give me any credit, give it to the guys who never came back."

heres to them.

Lycanthrope · 11-11-2008, 08:14 AM

Then don't partake in my lameness.
We often have the same views on things, and I usually like what you have to say - even if I disagree.
This just isn't one of those times.

Rochard · 11-11-2008, 08:16 AM

This is why Yahoo lost their edge man....

I just think theres a positive way to say things and a negative.

Instead of making a thread to honor vets, you chose to whine about Yahoo.

Meanwhile, you showed no recognition of those who sacrificed their life. Instead, you want a yahoo graphic thread.

that was my only point about "does this rly matter?"

Had I started a thread honoring vets, you would have probably called me self serving.

Yes, I'm whining about Yahoo - that was the point of this thread.

I've shown plenty where it needed to be shown.

Instead of whining about my whining perhaps YOUR points should be handled more positively?

Is today not a day of remembrance in Canada too? It is in the UK. I totally get your point but I think a nod can be made without it being specific to us Vetrans day as it is a day of remembrance in many countries today.

Tom_PM · 11-11-2008, 09:19 AM

I think that is disappointing on Yahoo's part too.

A small expense to get a custom logo to run for the day. If they'd wanted to.
They had one on earth day.

They are a search engine. Not a moral compass or the barometer of society norms.

Hopefully your local Starbucks, McDonalds, Bank, Gas Station, WalMart all recognized it as well.

Tom_PM · 11-11-2008, 09:23 AM

True. Then why do they fancy up the logo on other holidays? That tends to raise expectations.

PornMD · 11-11-2008, 10:08 AM

You'd think Yahoo'd acknowledge it considering they're more than likely about to become a veteran of a long brutal war. Google kissed their ass goodbye already. :P
