Q 4 SleazyDream...........
 

Has anybody ever ducked their Ambush Interview?

there's been 2

choker and 12clicks.

the interview is arranged before hand and they have to concent to it - choker concented to one but then bailed like the coward lying idiot he is.

12clicks was asked and flat out refused cause he was afraid of what might be asked and I believe that there must have been something there with his business that he was afraid might come out publically as he spent more time saying why he didn't NEED to do an ambush then the time required to do one.

the ambush is not knowing what the questions will be - it's not about surprising someone with an interview. They need to have the time that day to answer the questions properly and that requires pre-arrangement.

I didn't duck mine. I was flattered you thought of me, Sleazy! :) And I had a good time doing it, too!

As did I :thumbsup

i had a good time doing you! :thumbsup

You lucky bastard!

Thanks Sleazy for the 411 and general clarification. I love 'em....Keep it up :thumbsup

Call me this to my face in Miami. I will find you there, don't worry Burger Boy. For the record I DID NOT back out. Sleazy needs no email from me describing my history, he knows it already.

you did back out - keep changing the story you lying lazy asshole.

I'll be in phoenix - if you can afford to come I'll tell you there.

Woops - you can't afford a babysitter..

how about montreal in may? guess that's just too much effort as well......


san deigo in june? Too far I guess........

It's not really an ambush at all. You just can't think of a better term, that's all.

Ambush - The act of lying in wait to attack by surprise.

When soldiers are attacked in an Ambush, it's called an Ambush because the entire attack was a surprise, not because there's some question as to what the ammo is that's being fired at them. :2 cents:

I think soldiers know they are susceptible to attacks and thus should prepared for them, they just do not know how the attack will come about, pretty much the same thing sleazy has going on.

the pen is mightier than the sword - only an idiot would think that the only way to ambush someone is surprise time frame wize. Soldiers can be ambushed in the middle of a battle that they knew was going on.

Let's start with Dictionary.com:
am·bush ( P ) Pronunciation Key (mbsh)
n.
The act of lying in wait to attack by surprise.
A sudden attack made from a concealed position.

Those hiding in order to attack by surprise.
The hiding place used for this.
A hidden peril or trap.

tr.v. am·bushed, am·bush·ing, am·bush·es
To attack from a concealed position.

Which of those deffinitions supports your case? Possibly "A hidden peril or trap" but it's kind of a stretch.

Round two, let's consider the origin of the word "Ambush".

The English word ambush is derived from an old Teutonic (ancient German) word meaning in the bush, with a practical meaning of waiting in a concealed position with the purpose of attacking an enemy by surprise. Ambush is used to translate the original Hebrew word of the Scriptures, pronounced aw-rab (Arab is derived from the same word, see also Assassins), which means to lurk, or to lie in wait. There were a number of recorded ambushes during Bible History.

Round 3, let's see what Princeton University has to say about the word "Ambush" in WordNet.


The noun "ambush" has 1 sense in WordNet.

1. ambush, ambuscade, lying in wait, trap -- (the act of concealing yourself and lying in wait to attack by surprise)

The verb "ambush" has 2 senses in WordNet.

1. ambush, scupper, bushwhack, waylay, lurk, ambuscade, lie in wait -- (wait in hiding to attack)
2. still-hunt, ambush -- (hunt (quarry) by stalking and ambushing)

Again, always the mention of hiding, laying in wait and attacking by "surprise".

dude it's a fuckin' name, are you this anal and compulsive about everything??? :1orglaugh

Ha! Good point.

I'm actually arguing the English language with SleazyDream. :1orglaugh

round 4 - knock out.

i ambush people cause they don't know what the questions will be.


all i needed was one punch to win, let me know when you wake up.

Sorry bud, you got TKO'd in the third. An ambush is always a surprise, your interviews never are. It's okay, it still sounds catchy and I can't think of a better name either.

why the fuck isn't this getting THOUGH your dumb assed think skull?

the surprise is not knowing the questions.

the questions are the surprise.

duuuuuuuu

fuck you are sooooo fucking stupid it's pathetic.


IDIOT.

You sure you want to continue arguing about English?
The words "Surprise" and "Ambush" are not exactly synonymous words. What you have is an interview with surprise questions, not an ambush.
Yes they're a surprise, not an ambush.
Whatever you say, boss.

warchild - you are an idiot.

I'll consider the source and sleep just fine tonight. Thanks for your thoughts they're as valuable to me as always.

take note too - i didn't just say idiot - i said SPECIFICALLY that you are in fact an idiot.

Your opinion really doesn't have much credit with me. Now if somebody I actually respected told me this, I'd sit back and really consider my actions. As far as you calling me names, it fits your pattern of insecurity perfectly.

You don't see me making posts specifically about you in some sad attempt to get some validation about the way you make me feel. It's okay big guy, the truth hurts everybody. Just let it go, you'll get over it sooner or later.

no - it hurt you. you wouldn't deny it as hard as you have if it didn't.

mine was the best

for the record we have no idea what the questions are till he posts them. Before hand we get a preliminary questions asked and such about our background and so on

def! :thumbsup

I'm not saying that the idea or the content is bad, in fact quite the opposite. Many of the interviews are interesting reads. It's just not an Ambush as much as it is an interview in which the questions are a surprise.

idiot.

...

WarChild let it rest man, it's just a name... you said yourself you couldn't think of another name so why are you being such a annoyance over this?

In the corporate world it's all about creating catchy, good sounding names/phrases... not about the linguistic history behind it. Sleazy created a good concept and thought of this name, it's catchy and about everyone on here knows what it is by now so what is the problem?

This is so typical. Youre not doing the interview for the interview. Its just your little pathetic way to try to hurt people.

Two strong webmasters standing up against your childish shit. You are disgusting, SleazyDream. I have one benefit. I strongly believe in get even. If it will take 10 years, I don't mind. Sooner or later you will be paid back for all the shit you are saying about other people.

So I'm the next to be interviewed ? :D

I wonder how long this internet c u n t will continue to try and trade off of my name?
:1orglaugh

isnt warchild the guy that got his ass handed to him by Phatzane????

Phatzane doesn't show up to hand anyone their ass, or a lawsuit, or anything he says.

did you wake up yesterday ?

LOL, you are proud that your life is so empty you have nothing else but shows to go to? pathetic

I've really enjoyed several of the Ambush Interviews. I'm glad the people I was looking forward to were asked and accepted :thumbsup

....A bold statement by someone with over 4,000 posts. Does anyone else detect the irony in this statement.

Alrighty then. Nothing more to see here. Move along.
