Hmmm. Did an “All Threads Started by User” search, “Any Date,” limited to GD . . . got results . . . copied the link . . . guess the link doesn’t actually capture the search results.

Not the titles. The **content** of each OP backs up my point in post #4.

Every word of it.

Yes, because without brave truthiness-seekers like yourself, we’d never know that Ludacris said mean things and that this proves Obama is unqualified for the presidency because … um, how did the rest of it go again?

BTW–BG’s link worked fine when I clicked on it yesterday. No idea why it doesn’t now.

(ETA to add the BTW)

Search results expire after a couple of hours. It was live; now it’s dead.

Since Saturday we’ve seen nothing at all from the RW about Tucson but that particular kind of desperate and dishonest rite-of-aversion screaming that only ever comes from those who know they are wrong but find it politically impossible to admit it. **What** is **perfect** for the task.

You resurrected a two year old thread about a two year old thread and did the exact same thing people chastised you about two years ago?

What is it you find so objectionable about those posts that was worth this effort?

What the … !!! picked the right name, because his drivel gets a What the … !!! response from me all the time. In order to reply to someone you usually like to have some idea What the … !!! they are ranting and ravng about. In this guy’s case, usually I just say “aww fuck this”.

When I went over to the cafeteria this morning to get some scrambled eggs and bacon (and an orange! settle down, health freaks.), the bacon was well undercooked, and just sort of flopped around the tongs as if I were harvesting seaweed.

I thought to myself, “I wonder if there is any way on the SDMB that I could work in a metaphor about a post flopping about like fresh seaweed, with no crispness, no bite, no uumph?” (I don’t know about you guys, but I spend all my days looking for ideas for metaphors in my posts on the SDMB.) Later in the day, I came home and read **What the … !!!**'s OP.

“Frank,” I said to myself, “this could be it! What timing!” Then I realized that, as usual, **What the … !!!**'s post didn’t have even enough backbone to be seaweed.

Dang.

All I know is, bacon is the proof that there is a God and he loves us and wants us to be happy. 😃

I thought that was supposed to be beer. Although, theologically speaking, I could accept that beer and bacon are the liquid and solid forms of God’s love.

Crap on a cracker people!

Do your readers the service of telling the title of the offending thread. Further, if it’s one damned sentence that’s set you off, just quote the damn sentence, instead of making everybody go and look what thread you’re talking about, and further what sentence you mean.

Especially egregious in this case, as thread was lame, the one sentence even lamer.

Suck it, I say, to lazy ass OP’s.

I came to Mecca for the bacon.

But, there is no bacon in Mecca.

I was misinformed.

Which makes me wonder – if there were a place so renowned for bacon that it was known as the Bacon Mecca, would there be bacon in it?
