The snowflakes are out in force

@aldiboronti

The Democrats ran probably the only candidate in the entire party who could lose against Trump. I’m afraid the very least price they pay for that idiocy is to be mocked for the next 4 years

The Democrat collective chose to let the DNC party leaders, and the media outlets lie to them about the electability of Hillary. (And it appears that many of them are willing to defend the LSM’s piss poor reporting.) At the time, they must have thought it served their agenda? Unfortunately for the Democrat collective, they were outsmarted by the very same people that they claimed were stupid, and beneath them. How stupid does someone have to be to be beaten soundly by stupid people?

Hey doorhinge, you’re not laughing.

Who told you? You don’t expect me to believe you thought of that yourself, do you? Come on, who’s helping you appear to be clever? Santa Claus? Sonja Henie? Little Elvis?

My, what a devastating riposte. I am cut to the quick. I fear I breathe my last upon this keyboard.
Hahahahahahahaha.
I knew I couldn’t do it with a straight face.

@Chimera

From the posted rules;

No trolling

By trolling, we mean posting of inflammatory comments solely to get a rise out of people. If we feel your primary goal as a poster is to make people mad, you’ll quickly find yourself on the road to banning. On the flip side, the fact that a poster consistently makes you mad doesn’t automatically make them a troll.
So apparently the Pit moderator has decided to change the rules? :dubious:

@doorhinge

(posts not altered in any way, shape, or form)

Am I on double-secret probation now? Where is my confirming PM?

Just to clarify, what do you mean when you say, “Altering quotes to change their meaning”? Budget Player Cadet post was clearly meant to be insulting. It’s entire post was meant to be insulting. The “meaning” of it’s post wasn’t changed, but the post was shortened, and I identified the quote as being shortened. Just like I’ve been doing for years. Plus the original post is still available for everyone to see.

According to your post 202, “If you’re not posting here to deliberately annoy someone, you’re doing it wrong.”

So what did I do that was wrong? Budget Player Cadet insulting post was still insulting. Nothing changed.

p.s. Should my question be addressed in this thread, or in the About This Message Board forum?

While I’d be happy to discuss these issues here, the rules do say that any questions or complaints about a moderator ruling should be addressed in ATMB. Since the last thing I want is anybody thinking I’m making up rules on the spot, let’s take this discussion tither.

Depends. Did the Dems get three million more stupid people voting, or not?

Getting their last-minute whine on.

Check out this thread and you’ll see even more proof of it:

I made an exaggerated, sarcastic rant about the decline of “manhood” with a vague mention of “Bronies” (adult men who like the cartoon “My Little Pony” or fantasize about relations with the characters on the show); and just like that 4-5 people showed up ‘offended’ that I dare imply that an adult male who writes erotic fanfiction about cartoon ponies might be lacking in ‘manhood’ a little…

And no, I wasn’t even trying…

Oh, look, an attention whore. What’s the matter, not getting enough in that thread?

I don’t think he gets enough anywhere.

In fact, I don’t think he gets any.

Nope, I need a bigger fix.

I’m just surprised by how many Bronies were on this website and had no idea that many of them would get offended by a random mention of the show in a thread which wasn’t even primarily about it, honest to god.

Yes, Rarity friend-zoned me, I’m so devastated I’ve been trying to get with her best friend
Twighlight Sparkle just to make her jealous, but she tells all her friends she thinks I’m creepy… I might just start cutting myself

What does “tither” mean?

@Budget_Player_Cadet

I don’t disagree that Bricker is at times phenomenally dishonest, and there have been numerous times where I’ve wanted to reach through the screen and shake him, screaming, “DO YOU EVER TURN OFF LAWYER MODE YOU FUCKING ROBOT?”, but he not infrequently posts well-thought-out, reasonable arguments that actually contribute to the fight against ignorance, or at least require me to think for a while, and for that I’m genuinely grateful. I very rarely agree with him, but I think he’s one of the conservatives on the board that really contributes to the level of discussion.

I will agree with this in it’s entirety.

Other posters here though, particularly the author of this OP, contribute only as much as someone who rips a fart in an elevator, and then gets off on the next floor with a smirk on their face.

It’s a meme. It means that you are an unmitigated knob, who should be sterilized for the good of all future humanity.

Seriously?

OK, I’ll give you that one. Yes, the Dems did get three million more stupid people voting. You must be so proud. :rolleyes:

@doorhinge

“One who tithes.”

I think I was confused with “hither.”

You literally just admitted to trolling. You posted an insincere rant just to get reactions.

Thanks for that.

@BigT

You literally just admitted to trolling. Thanks for that.

If saying that My Little Pony is a show written for children, not something which critics are comparing to Breaking Bad according to posters in the thread is ‘trolling’ then I happily admit it, lol

[wolfpup]

@Miller

“One who tithes.”

I think I was confused with “hither.”

Or “thither” – “towards that place”. As opposed to “hither” – “towards this place”. Thus, commonly, “go thither” and “come hither”.

Really, it was the only thing in your thread worth addressing. I don’t think I’m less of a man for watching My Little Pony. Why do you? It’s about building empathy. Trying to understand each other. Peace and love, yanno?

(Also, for the record, if this guy gets banned before Clothy, I will be very upset.)
