> [@Moonlitherial](#): > > From the linked thread. Oh, I did use that word…didn’t realize. Pity how some people are so sensitive about this topic…if I were a social retard with no life outside the Internet, I’d probably also feel the need to hijack threads based on a weeks-old rant that doesn’t affect my life in the slightest. Pity, that. You can all carry on now. Oh, and here’s a quarter for your troubles. 😛 ---

I would think that the fact that it was not an offensive hijack, but rather an inoffensive parody would be clear to all but social retards with no life outside of the Internet. ---

I’m actually kind of proud of myself, although I do feel rather sad for the hijacker(s). And don’t parody threads belong in a different forum? ---

Maybe the idea was that the first homeless guy would murder the wife, then the second homeless guy would murder the first homeless guy, then the third homeless guy would murder the second homeless guy … You know, like the beginning of “The Dark Knight”. ---

I think that’s the GOP’s platform for the homeless problem in major cities. You rural folks are on your own… But think of the quarters you’ll save! 😃 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/how-many-homeless-men-does-it-take-to-murder-your-spouse/558448.md?page=1)
