Manny didn’t call you stupid. He called your beliefs stupid. There is a small difference.
OK, I’ll bite.
That was stupid.
Maybe KGS works for the US Government?

After reading that thread, I’d like to start the Petition to FUCK manhattan. The good kind of fuck, not the bad kind.
You may certainly ask but we don’t lock off threads on demand just because they go in directions the OPs don’t like. Throwing a molotov cocktail and then running from the fire is tacky. Ditto with making your personal beliefs an issue. Don’t want to explain or defend them? Then don’t make them issues on a message board. Don’t post anything in public that you aren’t prepared to discuss in public.
Just clarifying a few things.

They schedule electro-shock therapy this late at night?
A favorite story of mine. I keep getting amazed at how often it applies to some folks in this here interweb geegaw.
This fellow is living his life, pretty ho-hum. One day, he hears an inner voice say clearly, “Quit your job. Sell all your possessions.”
He’s jubilant. He’s always been waiting to hear from the inner guiding voice. He quits his job the next day, sells his house and car and whatnot, and waits for guidance.
It comes quickly. “Go to the airport. Buy the first available ticket to Las Vegas.” He does so, flies to Las Vegas.
“Tell the cabbie to take you to the Royale Casino,” the voice speaks. Eagerly, he does so, and also follows its instructions to convert all his money into chips and go to the roulette wheel.
“Put everything on red 23,” the voice insists. He feels no doubt, all is utterly calm. This moment was meant to be. He puts it all on red 23.
The wheel spins. It clicks to a stop. “Black 15,” the dealer announces, and rakes in all losing bets.
“Well, shit,” says the inner voice.
Good Fucking Word KGS, you are the fucked up moron here.
If you ask kindly after you realize you posted in the wrong forum even after it was closed, and frankly that would have been IMHO, but to get on manhattan’s case over such a fucked up thing, then further whine about it with:

Manhattan you are a disgrace. I cannot respect you, not now or ever. That is all I can say, because I have run out of time. Maybe I’ll start a GD thread and we’ll have fun with “Matrix Theory”. Or maybe not. I’m too pissed to decide and I have to be somewhere right now.**
What was so disgraceful about him closing the thread?
It was no more important than some people wondering about your poop habits. Your thread sucked. Deal with it.
I see nothing wrong with it you, puss oozing troglodyte that needs a bath in hydrogen peroxide and a flea dip in 100% bleach. Calling him disgraceful is wrong. Your thread sucked, it was in the wrong area and had you emailed him or an admin direct, he may have moved it to IMHO where it belonged. But with your “disgusting” look at this and be so fucking pissed, I say you lost any crediblility from here on out for future fuck ups on your part, by posting your stupid ooz in the wrong thread.
Lighten up, your blood pressure depends on it, Geezus Kriste.
Whoa. Dude. I’m getting it now.
When I read your posts, I hear calliope music, and these horses just keep spinning around and around and around…
What do you think that means?
NO! The Final Sacrifice is real! I will have my army of invinsible warriors. Bless the heretic holy saint Troy.
I had a vision too:
Some time in the future I’m watching the Stanley Cup Finals pitting the Tokyo Hello Kitties against the Birmingham Furries and after a few beers my dad tells me the story about how he became such a wimp. Turns out that back in 2003 he used to be the main line of defence against non-factual questions on a message board forum destined to align the planets and create harmony throughout the universe. Then an evil cyborg sent from the future started a petition to discredit him. Later I’m at my friend the inventor’s house just hanging and playing guitar when after a series of wacky events I end up back in 2003 on the very same message board right after the petition thread is started.
So I just root for New Jersey, problem solved, no reason to make a Hollywood production out of it…
Actually, I called your beliefs stupid. Which, for the record, they are. Stu-fucking-id. Not lightly stupid – heavy stupid. Like, Roseanne dancing with John Goodman on Jupiter stupid.
And we ain’t closing this thread until I find out who else wants to sign a petition to fuck me. Guin, how you doin’?
You know what’s funny? That’s exactly what happened. But I’m not sure how you reached that conclusion. Can you please elaborate?
(Mods, please leave open for the time being.)
Mom?
That made me laugh even harder than manhattan’s original post in this thread. Good work, my friend. 
And I will gladly volunteer for any petition to fuck manhattan in the good way. Heck, I need some relief, because those corn flakes aren’t helping me one damn bit.
Oh Holy Rowsdower, pray for us!
KGS, you posted in the wrong forum. Okay, not a big deal- we all screw up sometimes. Your posts are bizarre and you seem disturbingly willing make a movie plot the basis for your entire worldview. Again, not a big deal- we get plenty of wackos around this place. But then you made the huge tactical error of coming into the Pit and playing the “oppressed by the mods” card. You compounded this with the “I Don’t Have To Explain Myself To You People” manuever. And then you asked for the thread to be closed, assuming any passing mod will drop whatever they’re doing to make sure your wishes are complied with.
Pull the other one, it’s got bells on.
I think you’re a deranged loser. This would normally lead me to pity you, but then you crossed the line and started flinging your misplaced vitriol at everyone who questions the fact that you personally have a direct pipeline to The Universe. (Which is apparently only concerned with hockey scores; leave that quantum mechanical claptrap to the amateurs, eh?)
You’re not someone to be called stupid lightly? An interesting viewpoint, considering you admit in the original thread that you know almost nothing about current scientific theory, but are convinced the latest Hollywood blockbuster has got it all figured out.
Hmm…my Pyramid of Protection informs me a new Black & Gold Meteor is heading my way. Let’s see what I can pick up. Ah, yes, I see it all clearly now. I predict that you are currently off your meds, to the great concern of family and neighbors, and that you spend what some might call an unhealthy amount of your time watching bad sci-fi movies and getting your news from various conspiracy websites. In your future I see a lot of rocking back and forth and mumbling to yourself in a tiny room somewhere that has a suspicious lack of sharp objects handy.
manhattan, you did good. This place is what it is because our mods are willing to risk offense and shut down the trolls and loonies before we devolve into Usenet. TVeblen is fighting the good fight of the SDMB by not closing this thread; here you are judged by your ability to reason and to back up your claims, not by some abstract system of good-will that allows any moron with an internet connection to come shit all over us. sniff It’s things like this that make me proud to be a Doper.
On a serious note, it has to be said: KGS, get some help.
I’d like to add that I had a vision just now-and in this vision, I found that you must all give me your credit card numbers, or something very bad will happen.
Oh, you are gonna pay…
And here I was about to buy you a dirty cop uniform.
See, now you say that like it’s a bad thing…
