He’d prefer if you spoke of it as “The Hammer of Thor”.
When you are unpleasant to so many of the people you encounter, do you expect another result? If you plant thistles, expect a painful crop.
Well, now, don’t take it personal. It’s only about my second, or so. I just make it a rule never to piss anybody off.
Awesome. My first interaction with Scylla was him telling me that “queer” had become a perfectly acceptable synonym for gay, no matter who said it or what the context. Then there was his stunning racism-justifying thread about “green” people, truly a classic.
What’s wrong with a user-name search? I do it, to find the remarkably rare instance when someone actually replied to something I wrote. It prevents one from becoming a fly-by poster.
And curse you, BJMoose, for making my perfect reply to **Uvula Donor **unnecessary.
Fuck, yeah, but it ain’t gonna happen. Better to call him “Thor’s Penis That Does Not Even Jump.”
How did I miss that thread? Must’ve been during my hiatus.
Wow, what a load of racist crap slogging through that thread was. I’m stunned that so many people came to Scylla’s defense for suggesting that you’re only a racist if you stand by and watch a black man drown; anything short of that, including he seemed to suggest calling him a nigger while you saved him, makes you not a racist. Wow. That thread, and the many otherwise intelligent dopers who swallowed that bullshit whole has put this whole thing in a new perspective for me. Thanks Hentor.
(Didn’t Mark Fuhrman say he wasn’t a racist because he’d fucked a black woman?)
I was going to stand up for Scylla because I think it sucks that some people on here have become ok targets at any and all times because the “popular” people don’t like them, but post #4 is pretty damning. Pot, kettle, you know.
Did you say vagina?
There’s a word that means that. It’s bad. There’s another word that means that. It might be bad. There are a bunch of other words that mean that which might or might not be bad. Nobody’s sure yet whether mentioning the thing that the words you didn’t say might mean is bad or not.
Seriously, though, as much as **Scylla ** has proven himself utterly incapable of understanding anything that happens to anyone who doesn’t earn six figures a year by being rich and white, and not queer, which they so totally could be if they just worked as hard as him, or any of the people he knows, unless the liberals have sabotaged them… is that any reason to play the Kenny G card?
Kenny G?
If we were going to ban one term around here…

Uh, he likes to search for responses to his posts, so that he might respond to them? I do it every time I log in. Is there something wrong with me?
Yeah. Everybody else uses the User Control Panel. Doesn’t count as a search, so there is no 300 second wait between refreshes.
“Green” people? Can we get a link please?
I don’t, because then I’m forced to confront the “0 new private messages” message, and a little tear rolls down my cheek.
Scylla, must you make everything about you?
Why else would you post a thread calling attention to such grievous insults that have wounded you to the core? My god, someone mentioned you in a slightly-less-than-flattering light, sound the alarm!
I’d insert a comment here, but that might provoke people into knife-fights.
Maybe we should put a gratuitous Scylla snark in every Pit thread, and make him sort through hundreds of hits when he does a vanity search.
Scylla is a [female genitalia].
iokifyar?
Suppose it depends on your motivation. Ol’ Scylly strikes some of us as the sort of person who looks to see if people are talking behind his back. (Maybe his tinfoil asshat blocks his view.)
You both have a point. It is one way to look for responses. I, like Fear Itself, have always gone the “Find all posts by …” route. Works for me. Course, if you to are using the feature just to find actual responses, that would not, strictly speaking, be a Vanity Search.
Sorry about stealing your thunder (and believe me, I have no desire to get on the wrong side of Lucifer’s Nana!). The quip is some old Milton Berle schtick that got stuck to my hoof somewhere along the line.
Interesting bit of coding at the end. What does it say about this place when Fear Itself is afraid? . . .
Does give me an idea, though.
The gods are weenies!
Did you see that!? A bolt of lightning right in the middle of a message board! Wow, you don’t see something like that every…hey, where did BJ go?
