And, btw, this is the second pitting of her in 4 months. What’s the definition of “long overdue”? 😉 ---

In fact, there is much more threat of nuclear war today, esp since so many countries today have nuclear weapons, and esp since there are now unstable countries that have nuclear weapons. The biggest threat of nuclear war, or of a nuclear bomb going off, is today…not then.” > > [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=13041187&postcount=34](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=13041187&postcount=34) My grade school had frequent Abomb alerts, wiht a siren going off and all the kids filing down into the basement of the school. We also practiced the short time alert by hiding under our desks and covering our necks and eyes with our forearms. They showed movies demonstrating the horrible effects of an Abomb explosion by showing New Mexico footage and later, Hiroshima and Nagasaki films. The scene that stuck with me was a picture of a bridge with a faint shadow of a human being. He had been vaporized. but his body blocked the heat enough for a discoloration in the shape of a his body. How cruel can we be? ---

I would mention that I think her best posts related to how you can - _currently_ - walk into any convenient store in the world and pay in gold. You have always been able to, and you will always be able to. ---

Honestly, it took about 2 seconds to find more treasure troves of insanity. I didn’t even know she’d been pitted before, but that’s good to know. ---

Fantastic. Seriously, this is why I can’t put her on the ignore list. I’d never get the “…_bwah_?” moment that comes with finding out there is an adult out there who thinks it is illegal to give Pizza Hut a fake name and number. In fact, very few of her posts read like they were written by an adult; you could easily tack “… because my mom SAYS SO!!!” onto the end of most of her sentences and it would read like something my niece might say. ---

She’s mouthing off in [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=617377) about the legality of shooting stray animals. She got told by **Colibi** to back up her statements with cites, or GTFO (YAY, finally a mod lays some smackdown on her!). Naturally, she chose the GTFO option. Her posting style gets more hysterical whenever she can’t back her shit. ---

> [@Freudian\_Slit](#): > > I think “Your reply is not replying to anything” needs to become the new “My post is my cite.” That reply was hilarious. It’s like she can’t remember a single one of her own posts outside of any given thread. I saw that in a thread on Casey Anthony, where she claims to have never proffered the theory that Caylee drowned and George covered it up…a couple of pages after she posted that it was her belief that Caylee drowned and George covered it up. > [@Onomatopoeia](#): > > She just stated that she was quitting.

But that Susananne has one big advantage on her home turf that our **Susanann** doesn’t have here: Her posts are one-direction statements, sweeping generalizations and flawed logic, which then get posted as-is, forever, and any responses or criticisms are limited to tiny dropdown comment boxes by anonymous users she can feel free to ignore. ---
