Nah, I wasn’t really going for a meta-whoosh or anything like that. You gotta have a fair degree of either cleverness or popularity to pull off a move like that, neither of which I - a lurker of middling wit - possess.

I’m just tired of reading this tedious dickbag’s constant whining, and I wasn’t given to presume that he was going for a non-literal reading of his post, given that he (either sincerely or disingenuously, both unpalatable alternatives) claims to be unable to distinguish between an individual or gestalt consciousness in his interactions here. Hence my (admittedly pointless) objection to his jokey dribblings.

TLDR: Fuck this knee-jerk contrarian, would-be edgelord, sack of shit.

Oh the irony… You got the middling wit right at least.

Possibly. The U.S. and Canada celebrate labor day on the first Monday in September (yesterday) instead of May 1.

Actually yes. A couple of rather lovely weeks away ta very much.

I had to look up the word “picayune”, never seen that before, but yep, it defintely fits however it is also on such petty points that the internet turns.

At least you acknowledge your level of wit. **octopus** studied to become a wit but quit halfway.

What’s a _wit but_? Is that what an octopus poops ink out of?

Pop quiz - how long does a racist think is long enough that people will have forgotten?

Answer: around 9 months…

Wasn’t **damuriajashi** topic-banned? Or am I misremembering?

I think this was the last word on the subject,

> So there seems to be a blanket prohibition on discussion of education in threads about critical race theory. This seems a bit like prohibiting discussions of when life begins in an abortion thread. Its application to education is one of the most controversial aspects of critical race theory. Are there other similarly controversial topics that are banned?

I’m sure if they put some effort into it, they can get that ban expanded.

Yeah, it’s like some kind of board record.

The attempt is so pitiful and transparent that nobody can be bothered with it. Congratulations are in order, I suppose, for having such a pathetic OP that it doesn’t even elicit token effort.
