Thanks to the two that flagged the post.
You know who’s not useless? You!
Wow, a troll (trock) with an honest handle for a change. Usually we get the likes of imtotallynotatrollnope or notsockymcsockwhome.
I had been following the thread in question (prior to going to bed) and yeah that was quite a post. Now, granted, having insane asylums with better oversight than the historical norm is arguably a good thing (to prevent the horrific abuses of the past), but lobotomy? Yeah, that’s flat out trolling.
Although TBH, that thread is a trainwreck. The number of people that should be flagged for political jabs and the like in what is theoretically a breaking news thread… I just don’t have the energy. Some luckless mod is going to have to go in with both boots to bring order to it.
What thread is that?
Hope that helps.
I was referencing @crowmanyclouds’s direct quote from poster imuseless in the breaking news thread about the Fatal Shooting at Joel Osteen’s megachurch:
https://boards.straightdope.com /t/2-11-2024-fatal-shooting-at-joel-osteens-controversial-houston-mega-church/997444
Broken thread for backlinks of course.
They’ve since been moderated, and looks like puzzlegal is stuck putting it back to Breaking News standards.
And now that the poster has been named, @ASL_v2.0 and @John_DiFool’s cracks should make more sense!
Nitpick; that is a copy-and-paste job, not a direct quote, which would have pointed back to the thread in question. A copy and paste is completely useless for letting anyone know what thread you’re talking about unless you give even the slightest hint about where it came from.
I accept the nitpick, but it was easy enough to select a section that was distinct (several) and do a search. But I do agree it was a extra few steps.
I will point out when the question was asked though I included a (broken) link to help those who felt left out!
Just to be clear, you’re a rock star for that.
For friggin’ real
There were a dozen not very polite (to put it mildly) responses I did not make in that thread as it would not have been the appropriate venue. And now I feel like I deserve a cookie. Or a jug of wine
Thanks, and for thread info.
I agree that it needed moderating; but seems odd that it was moderated for being “political”.
There are a fair number of us who deserve a cookie.
I wondered how that was political too. There’s another post about something political and it wasn’t modded.
Do we need a admittedly diagnosed person with homicidal thoughts posting here?
First, if he really is, how interestingly ignorant.
Second, if it’s a weird bragging thing, how interestingly stupid.
I don’t necessarily want to hear their thoughts on anything.
The question isn’t really what you’re thinking; it’s what you’re doing. Or, at least, seriously planning to do.
And, clearly, what he should be doing, or at least seriously planning to do, is getting a lobotomy. But I wouldn’t, hehe, bet on it happening.
Looking at that poster’s oeuvre, I was thinking “obviously too late.”
Surely, it’s just a coincidence,
If someone thats drowned has been submerged for long enough, will they eventually puke up the contents of their stomach whilst still underwater?
Why did I vomit during the rescue attempt after the crash?
Thought so.
I didn’t make the connection, not sure I’m ready to go down that path yet. But it is suspicious.
