There seems to be a lot of prejudice these days against those setting out the facts about the moon landing hoax. We seem to no longer have an open mind about these things. Sad. I blame fake news.

Counting down to the ATMB thread wondering what happened to the reparations thread…

Come on, Sunny. I like the pee-ing thread. I’m fixin’ to do an experiment with newspaper and dyed water. I gotta have something to do tonight. Don’t harsh on my Saturday night activities. I gotta an extra hour to kill:)

**Jordan20** has no fewer than 30 posts in that thread. I didn’t read them all (actually, I didn’t read any of them) but I presume they offer increasingly informative insights on peeing. I note that **Jordan20** just joined us this month and has a total of … well, 30 posts. It seems like an extraordinary level of obsession with the minutiae of this particular activity, but who am I to judge. I’m sure it’s good to have a hobby that gives you expertise on a subject.

I think **Jordan20** really should get multiple legal copies of Almodóvar’s first movie, _Pepi, Lucy, Bom y otras chicas del montón_. Its most famous scene is a golden shower.

If you’re talking about the switch to DST, you’re LOSING an hour, not gaining one.

You would think that all of the posts would be different, but no. They’re all remarkably similar.

Yep. I wouldn’t have thought it necessary to post quite so often about pee dribbling up and down labia and buttocks but there you have it.

I’d say our knowledge of him was sufficient unto our needs.

If you cornfield someone, is it standard practice to delete your own warning posts where you quote that poster?

I see the problem–if you remove the warning, you remove the reason for banning them, therefore the posts will still be there, leading to removal…you risk getting the universe stuck in a time-like loop.

No, he cornfielded the post that he gave the warning for, but the post is still quoted in his warning. Seems like the warning should go away as well.

The cornfield is a real place, it’s just invisible to ordinary mortals. The post and the warning still exist. In addition, the warning is posted in the bannees profile.

I don’t want to jinx anything, but has anyone else noticed how nice it is that \*\*Doorhinge \*\*didn’t return after his suspension?
