Well, sure, but it’s non-addictive. No nicotine!
Well shit, let’s start adding nicotine to those fucking bombs.
See post #26 in the “Is it kosher to wash my cat’s bed towels in a laundromat” thread in IMHO. I’m certainly not going to popularize it by linking to it. I try to give one of our most valuable posters a compliment, and the subject of this thread, inveterate asshole that he is, swoops in to shit on it with some incoherent gibberish. Not content with that, he’s back to bickering in the ATMB thread about acronyms, which thread might have yet led to further useful discussion but might now likely be closed because of pointless bickering caused by said asshole.
His post is a quote of a Weird Al lyric.
Still doesn’t make much sense why he’d do this, but at least it’s not random gibberish.
So, idiot is back to his old tricks again. Same reason I put him on ignore last time. Makes up shit I didn’t say and starts needling me over it. He’s back on ignore again. I only took him off when he’d talked about changing his ways. Now I can’t wait for his eventual permaban.
This is in the “imbecile” thread in ATMB, appropriately enough.
You’re not exactly coming out of that thread covered in glory, either. You’re coming across as abrasive and picking fights - and yes, takes two to tango, I know. But you’re doing it to multiple people, the other of whom is not (AFAICR) a DrDeth-level dick.
I had one person who was claiming I said the opposite of what I said, and when I pointed it out with a quote, they backed down, no big deal. DD though just keeps needling, based partially off the first person’s misinterpretation, except DD just kept it up.
I felt myself coming close to insults, reminded myself it wasn’t the Pit, and tried to do my best to defend myself without it getting personal. That was difficult for me. It was frustrating. I think DD is probably trolling, I don’t think at all that Locust was, I think that was just a simple misunderstanding.
I should have just put DD on ignore before my last post but didn’t think of it until afterward. It takes a lot before I do that. I only have 4 people on my list. All of them have dedicated Pit threads.
I currently only have one… The esteemed Dr himself.
I don’t i think he’s pedantic and often misses stuff. And can’t drop things.
At some point, the difference being troll and a pedantic jackass who can’t let things drop is a distinction without sufficient difference. Which is more or less the purpose of the ‘more trouble than they’re worth’ rule
DD hasn’t crossed that line, in my mind, but is certainly a jackass a good portion of the time
Just when you think he can’t have brought yet another turd for the punchbowl…
(Someone immediately asks if there’s ever been a real case like DrDeth’s strawman, but the mod shuts down the hijack)
Yeah, I can’t possibly have been the only person to read that post and jam my thumb on the “flag this post” button.
You were the only one, but thank you for doing so. That had an extreme hijack written all over it.
For “pictures of their nude baby in the tub”?
I’m not saying it can’t happen . . . but I’m gonna need some serious evidence that it happens on anything even close to a regular basis.
I must have an itchy trigger thumb. Thanks for heading it off!
FWIW, Google found exactly one news item of “porn” being directly related to a naked baby in a bathtub.
Relevant paragraph:
Furst’s attorney James Reich said the photos of a naked baby in a bathtub were on an old hard drive transferred to Furst’s computer from another employee’s computer. The photos were innocent photos of the other employee’s child, Reich said.
Then there all the breathless “Think of the Children!” busybodies – or, perhaps more accurately, the fear the these busybodies exist.
You Googled that? Oh hell, now you’re on a list somewhere…
Why are you continuing the subject that was shut down as an extreme hijack?
It wasn’t shut down in this thread. Folks are free to talk about it here.
