Ok. Please, and take this as a suggestion, I am not a mod. Please Enough with threads about war, please stop! There is sufficient amount of threads on every message board that is currently active. It’s getting beaten to death. Theres already huge amounts of threads about the war, to reiterate. I’m sure your compaint would most likely fit among those threads that have already been created. Just a suggestion. Flame away. ---

I submit that this thread should be hijacked into a discussion about the war as quickly as possible. ---

Well, golly. Don’t you think people might WANT to talk about the war? Is anyone holding a gun to your head and making you read them? ---

Hey, I know! If you start lots of pit threads, there won’t be any room for the threads about the war, and then you won’t have to look at 'em! You’re well on your way already. ---

Lets all join in a circle, and beat up MachineHead. Even the mods can join in! Heaven forbid I say something that’s right! Oh, lieu, fuck you. I was just asking enough with the fucking war. Nothing more. ---

If not, I just have to say that you’ve been acting like a complete jackass all day. Originally, you had a legitimate gripe. Hell, even a mod said so when he closed your MPSIMS thread down. But you’ve completely fucked that up with your constant whining and self-martyrdom. Blow. ---

> [@](#): > > _Originally posted by MachineHead \* > \*\* > Theres already huge amounts of threads about the war_\* Yeah there are huge amounts of threads about the war. When did you decide there was enough threads? I know I reached my limit when some poster named Billy wrote a letter to God, asking why Americans are such idiots. ---

It is a proper noun after all. And stop with the Aussie bashing, our troops are there right along side yours. (How’s that for a segue into a war thread?) ---

I’m glad I live in Canada where I’m allowed to choose which threads I wish to read and not forced to read dozens upon dozens of threads about this war. Heck, I’m even allowed to turn off my computer if I want. Join us and feel the love. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/enough-please-mild/162884.md?page=2)
