Being harrased by a moderator

At first they came for the trolls, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a troll. They they came for the socks and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a sock. Then they came for the those who ignore mod instructions, and I didn’t speak out because I don’t ignore mod instructions.

I had thought that at some point I must start to speak out, or there will be none left to speak for me, but then I realized

that this whole board leans left. So fuck it. I’m not speaking out for anyone.

Your post is bullshit! Colibri lives right near the old Aztec Empire in Panama, so therefore, he could be an Aztec, which would explain his propensity for issuing violent warnings.

His warnings will rip the heart right out of ya!

Saw the thread title from the board menu, thought “Well, it can only be one of about a hand full of people…”

Yup, I was right.

Even as a joke, that fails. The Xonoconochco colonized territory was only as far south as what is now Guatemala. Panama was nowhere near Aztec land.
Stick with the fierceness of hummingbirds.

I always thought Colibri was just into being stylish while starting fires. I swear to Bob I learn something new here every day.

They’re trying to trick the drunk into saying “I couldn’t do that even if I wasn’t drunk! Wait… d’oh!” :smack:

Can I just say that the phrase “Hummingbird Vendetta” has a frisson of badass espionage maneuver to it? Kinda like the trope that real badass assassins often use .22 caliber weapons for their wet work. Small, efficient, deadly.

I wouldn’t want to be on the wrong side of a Hummingbird Vendetta - nosirree :wink:

Band name.

So you’re saying that his comments were bullshit?

A friend of mine has, as his nom de plume, “Black Hummingbird of Death.” His logo has tiny chain guns mounted under the wings.

He has to eat his weight in death every day!

I like Harlan Ellison’s version better yet

"You are not entitled to your opinion. You are entitled to your informed opinion. No one is entitled to be ignorant.

Is a leer and a wink sufficient, or do you need to be groped, too? :wink:

But… but… what about, 'throwing stuff in the…
nah, not gonna do it. :wink:

Maybe something like this guy.

All those illustrations show going in from the top/through the rib cage. Personally, I’ve always found going in from beneath the rib cage and angling up to the heart to be much easier. No pesky bones getting in the way. Do you have any idea how much force is required to crack ribs? And you have to get that heart out *quickly *so it’s still beating!

There’s a knack to it, but it takes forever to learn. You go through so many sacrifices that just aren’t acceptable. [There’s plenty of incentive to learn before you use up your allotment, though; if you do ruin too many, you’re next!]

What?

Back in grade school (maybe high school) I was bored one day, so I wrote the alphabet backwards and memorized it over the course of the next hour or two and can still recite it backwards. Oddly, it comes in pretty handy. It’s really nice for flipping thorough dictionaries or phone books, not that I have to do that all that often anymore, but being able to work my way through them backwards as well as forwards is nice.

I taught my four-year old daughter to sing the alphabet backwards using the same Twinkle Twinkle tune that was popularised by Sesame St.

Works better with the Anglicised “Zed” than Zee.

Now I know my CBA
The alphabet is fun this way.

Waaay off the OP but I don’t think this thread was going anywhere fast anyway.
