The Ukrainian judge only gives you a 2.5 for your weak effort at a reverse whoosh. 😃

😕 I have no idea what you’re talking about. I’m enjoying wallowing in the death and misery of this infant. Aren’t you?

But is he more fun than a dead baby?

I’m not - I’m enjoying a thread full of black humour about something that 99.9999%\* of the population of the planet thinks is a terrible thing.

\*Rough estimate.

Huh. Weird. I thought we were all basking in all this glorious infant pain, while underhandedly upbraiding a Doper for posting an RO thread, as if feelings of genuine outrage aren’t perfectly justified in the Pit.

Don’t care. Like most people in this thread, I don’t give a damn about any of them.

While I have participated in the black humor, I can’t help but wonder what would the response be if someone threw a kitten off a parking garage.

I think this accusation of threadshitting might be more appropriate in a situation where its target isn’t the only other person posting to the thread to do anything _other than_ threadshit. You know?

Now let’s not get crazy here. I don’t even think mass murderers would stoop to doing something so cruel and heartless as throwing an adorable, fuzzy widdle kitten off a parking garage. That is incomprehensible!

Hardly the same. Throwing a kitten off a parking garage wouldn’t be a bad thing.

Although if they did something like that, like, say, a Russian lass throwing puppies off a bridge, I’ll bet the namby-pambies around here might get outraged and have a multi-page shitfit. Pussies.

Puppies? Whatever. I’m talking about kittens here, with their fuzzy little tails and bright eyes and heart-melting mewling. No way does anyone throw a kitten off a parking garage. That’s a level of evil that simply doesn’t exist in the universe. Almost as bad as the thought of stuffing a baby in a microwave…

Well, was the baby attached to buttered toast?
