Um, apparently I suck extra hard at using Google, so can someone help me find an old thread please?

It was in The Pit I think, no promises.

Somone, I can’t remember who, jumped in to the discussion and completely and utterly dismantled a mod/admin (possibly just a normal poster) and someone else said something to the effect of “why don’t you tell us how you really feel?”

The closest I’ve come is a thread from '99 about someone tearing up a Cecil column, but the thread I’m thinking of isn’t that old. I think.

Nor was the OP the post that was doing the tearing, again, I think.

Sorry for so much haziness. I really wish I could be more descriptive.

You are unfortunately describing a weekly event. You probably won’t have much luck.

Damn reality getting in my way!

If it helps, the mod/admin on the receiving end got his/her ass _very_ handed to him. One of the better eviscerations of the staff that’s been spouted. This one had heart put into it.

Ringing any bells at all? Anyone?

When you’ve found Covered In Bees’ thread, can you guys help me find that GD thread where someone conclusively proved that Bush 43 was the worst president ever? Some of the keywords were “republican”, “stolen election”, and “Iraq”.

It might be this thread, I have no clue. I lurk a bit too much.

Well, **Contra** isn’t a mod, so I don’t know if that’s the one you’re looking for.

While that was quite a good one, it wasn’t it.

Your Google search did help me find [**the thread**](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=328986&page=2) I was looking for.

Hopefully no offense to CK Dex, as he was on the receiving end. Though the post in question (71) wasn’t as bad as I first made it out to be.

Thanks Shadez! 🙂
