Shit, you kiddin’? We have a hard enough time keeping a thread focused on a topic when the structure is laid out explicitly and directly. We start out on gay marriage and next thing you know, its a furous argument about the Defenestration at Prague.

The Op probably wants another thread on birthers as those are far more interesting than ones about inconsequential countries far away populated by Fuzzy Wuzzys or other brown people with funny names.

Shake that magic 8 ball again and see if you can come up with a non-retard post.

I mean, are you for real? My annoyance at seeing so many threads basically discussing the same thing leads you to the conclusion that I am a racist?

u r dum.

I didn’t see a lameo rant about how many birther threads there have been. I saw a rant about how many threads there were about whole societies changing in other countries on the other side of the planet. People are dying in those countries because they want freedom from the dictators that oppress them. But apparently to you it doesn’t justify an individual thread to talk about the specifics of each country. Yet no rant on how many birther threads.:rolleyes:

In another **BrainGlutton** thread, it was suggested that the phrase ‘brown people’ may not always be appropriate, see [this post.](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=13394205&postcount=152)

In fact, we could probably do two or three threads on the topic.

The simple answer…and do try to keep up…is because I hadn’t noticed 6 threads on the front page, all started by the same person that discussed birthers.

Honestly, I hope that clears it up for you.

Yah, and populations all over the ME are throwing their dictators out of windows, each in their own way. I don’t expect gay marriage in Egypt anytime soon though, just sayin’.

😕 Is this “defenestration” some kind of gay thing?

Yes. If it weren’t for this defenestration and other related events, current mainstream american churches might not be able to oppose gay rights. 😉

Not gay, but one of the victims was a midget. He fled to the Prague Cathedral, hoping to be hidden and begged the Archbishop “Please, sir, can you cache a small Czech?”

I tried to improve my karma by “re-railing” a thread for a change. I see that I have failed.

I think that pun killed the thread. Its Praguenosis is truly grim.
