> [@Elendil\_s\_Heir](#): > > And don’t get me started on how the Jews made McCain pick Palin. No-o-o-o! The Jews made the GOP pick McCain, then Wall Street made McCain pick Palin (who is really a Jew, but pretends to be Christian). The conspiracy is never as simple as it looks from the outside. ---

On a planned parenthood board (not necessarily one linked to Planned Parenthood), specially in one involving members of the Spelling Brigade: “i want agirl so much!!! all ive had so far are boys n Ive never wanted boys but sroulsy after ate I’m sick and tired of boystuff, kn u rcomend a good sexchoos clink?” ETA: I’m not sure which preferred gender would be the bigger trainwreck, but the difference would probably not be more than one or two wagons. ---

“Hey, white guys, slavery is legal again. Who would you own? I claim Halle Berry and Beyonce” Out here: “Stop whining about the “illegal” Hawaiian overthrow. You pussies could’ve had fought for your beloved nation in 1893. But no, you let some businessmen and a handful of marines walk up without a shot fired. Warrior nation, indeed. What if the American Revolution just consisted of a strongly-worded letter to the King George? We’d still be speaking English, that’s what.” ---

On one type of poetry board: i rite from the ~HEART~ and my ~FEALINGS~ and hear is all of them!!! On another type: If it doesn’t rhyme, it isn’t poetry. On a third type: Rhyme is artificial and I write poetry naturally. And on another: Bukowski is the only poet worth reading! Actually, I think you could get a rise at any poetry board with any one of the above. 😃 ---

Why isn’t this a solution for the “homosexuality problem”? Men having sex with men is disgusting. Women having sex with women is sexy. Everyone knows that. So, lets make it a law that homosexual men have to undergo a sex change! At their own expense of course, paying for it would be socialism. ---

“I have gradually realized that over the course of my time here at the SDMB, I have never lost an argument. In fact, I have not made even a single fallacious statement, and I have always remained objective. I suspect this is because I am very self-aware and so I am able to assess my own argument objectively and account for cognitive bias before clicking the “post” button. In possession of an enlightened approach to the search for truth, I am open minded, and inquire as to the veracity of my self-assessment. Does anyone disagree? If so, prove it.” ---

I’ll skip SDMB ones. Steam Forum: Any announcement Steam makes. For example, if they announced, “Tomorrow, we’re giving everyone 10 free games of their choice,” people would complain about it being only ten games or having to wait for tomorrow to get the games. Fishing related ones: Largemouth Bass Recipes! What’s the best color power bait? (Has to be in a fly fishing forum) This one’s true. I once suggested the members on a fishing forum I moderate should attempt to use some decent English in their posts. Holy crap was there a huge outcry. ☹ [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/an-op-writing-challenge-write-an-op-that-would-guarantee-a-trainwreck/564252.md?page=2) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/an-op-writing-challenge-write-an-op-that-would-guarantee-a-trainwreck/564252.md?page=4)
