We need another law. Don’t vote for officeholders with less IQ and common sense than a croquet ball.
World Eater, compared to other states in the U.S., Washington is a hellhole, or hopelessly liberal. Live here for a while and take your pick.
It’s all relative, y’know.
I’m utterly stunned to the point where my mouth is literally hanging agape. P.T. Smegma, do you really think that your troubles with the Washington State government give you license to spew your verbal diarrhea at Scotticher? You called her a fucking animal? And you wish painful anal rape on her? Are you KIDDING me?
Go take a valium – you seriously need one. You are completely out of line and way over the deep end.
I have been waiting for you to explain how it is Scotticher’s fault but in the absense of that, I offer a very hearty AMEN to Shayna’s post.
Oh shit.
Simple.
Until you’ve walked in my and my wife’s, and my daughter’s, and my son’s, and our extended family’s shoes: Fuck you.
Seriously. If you are under the impression that some fucking beaureaucrat has a better idea about anything regarding “family values,” than my wife and I, I’d love to hear it.
To all my fellow Dopers: I have lost highly profitable jobs for the sake of my wife and children. I really wish there was some Internet documentation of this fact, so I could refute the predjudiced, once and for all.
If the detritus that want to slag me in a Pit Thread for no reason (lacking email, honest questions, etc.) want to slag me, go for it.
I’ve been a scrapper for over half my life, I’m sure I can handle a few more sanctimonious twerps.
I just beg the honor of my very own Pit Thread. 
Until you’re willing to offer even the slightest scrap of justification for your abominable behavior in this thread, right back atcha.
I’m under the impression that intestinal bacteria have better ideas then you do.
I was going to ask, “What the fuck are you talking about,” but I’ve decided instead to go with, “Who the fuck cares?” Jesus. You come in here and start screaming at Scotticher for not having any respect for what you’ve been through, then refuse to tell anyone what the hell happened to make you so pissed off. So, I don’t give a shit. If you can’t be bothered to explain you ludicrous hysteria, I can’t be bothered to care about it.
How’s this for an honest question: WHAT THE HELL IS YOUR DAMAGE?
Yeah, whatever, you hypersensitve cockwad.
Well, campers!
As far as Scotticher’s post? Maybe she oughta put up with two years of state-sanctioned abuse. It hurt my whole family. A lot.
Her post seemed to me to be a ‘knee-jerk’ post. Until she finds out what the fuck she’s posting her provincial bullshit about, perhaps she ought to do just a little research.
I know this will seem like the cheesiest garbage: Scotticer, I know you are worth so much more than what I have read so far. Please show me.
P.T. Smegma Since I don’t know what in the hell you are talking about, I have no opinion about it.
What I do have an opinion about is I’m extremely disturbed by your serious attack on a fellow doper who didn’t do anything to you, and now you have taken it a step further and implied an attack on all of us.
Being angry over some injustice you/your family endured at someone else’s hands does not give you the license to attack someone else.
In short, you owe Scotticher an apology and after your last general “fuck you”, you owe the board one.
HOW DARE YOU FUCKING TALK ABOUT SHOES LIKE THAT? Your insensitive cavalier attitude about shoes makes me sick! Do you know the hell me, my mother, my brother, my boyfriend, my roommate, my cat, and the cute guy who sat down the row from me in Italian class went through on account of shoes?!
No, I won’t tell you!
You can email that apology to me, with a copy to Scotticher, if you want your posting privileges back. I don’t know what your problem is, but that’s NO reason to abuse another poster like that.

For the Straight Dope
I loves me some Lynn. Have I mentioned that lately?
So… How about that stupid video game law, huh? Boy, was that ever… stupid.
Thank you for making my point much more eloquently than I could.
Lynn stays up late…for great justice!
Ya know what I love about this place?
The sheer randomness.
How often do you see a total meltdown in a thread about video game laws? I wandered into this thread to orate about the First Amendment and I was treated to someone’s 19th Nervous Breakdown.
It’s a serendipwad moment.

I think that what I don’t understand is why, if SmegHead is so angry about Washington State, he is even angrier at the suggestion he move out of Washington State?
BWAHAHAHAA.
If I had any cow orkers here, they’d be wondering why I was in convulsions just now…

Ladies and gentlemen,
While flying with the Straight Dope airline, please check all baggage at the counter. If you must take baggage onboard (and please limit it to small items that can fit under the seat of the poster in front of you), you must declare it. If you cannot declare it, for confidentiality reasons, then you will not be permitted to bring it on board.
Please note that the exits are here (<) and here (^) and here (>) and here (v). If you cannot find an exit, our lovely flight attendant, Lynn, will find one for you.
Thank you for flying SD Airlines.

In the long and wondrous history of the law, the 8th Circuit has a reputation. Nobody ever follows us. Ever. We’re the black sheep of circuits. For instance, in the history of bankruptcy law, I think there was a total of one time that an 8th circuit court was followed on a critical question of law. If I were before the SCOTUS in any case that didn’t actually arise in the 8th circuit, I would shove a can of albacore tuna up my ass before I actually mentioned an 8th circuit holding, unless the fact patterns were absolute clones.
You may owe someone an apology, istara.
Smeghead remains a pretty cool dude. P.T. Smegma, on the other hand…
