How about if it asked, “What kind of vibrator does the Queen use in her vagina?”
That sounds like a challenge!
Another top quality decision by the mods. Kudos. I might also note that the referenced thread title is provocatively NSFW IMHO.
I’d have a joke to post in that thread.
Not the same thing. Over the years there have been hundreds of thread that ask: “How often do you masturbate?” I don’t recall a single one of those being close.
Replace you with President Obama and all the sudden people get their panties in a twist.
Which, I might add, that this only reinforces the stereotype the us Dems view Obama as the Messiah.
It was a stupid thread, but not our stupidest. It got locked because it irritated twickster.
Could it instead have to do with your location? :dubious:
I don’t see how a thread can get any stupider, so why don’t we say there are many threads
tied for first. Too many. Way too many. I hope twickster stays irritated and gets even more
irritated, and the more lock bombs he drops the better.
I think the OP insulted junior-high locker rooms everywhere. And I say that as a fan of stupid and pointless threads.
Onanism has no place in our nation’s capital, and it makes me angry when people insinuate otherwise.
twicks is a gal.
Now, this I agree with. If humor was the intent, then Houston, we have a problem. But I think the general question is exactly the type of question that people may not want to ask anywhere else–because it IS so tasteless…but should be able to ask on the SDMB.
It’s possible I’m totally losing it, but I also find this to be an interesting question! Now I, as an American gal with a credit card, can mail order all the vibrators I want and no one gives a shit and it won’t end up on the cover of The National Enquirer, cause as I said no one gives a shit. But how & where the fuck does the Queen of England get her gadgets? Enquiring minds want to know…
I am not an Obama fan but that thread sucked, offensive content for the sake of nothing but stupid. Good call, Twickster.
Yeah, it was mindless and pointless. If only we had a forum for such threads.
But how so offensive? That is, how so offensive relative to dozens of other threads about mindless and pointless sexual subjects. The only distinction I can see is that it referenced Obama. BFD.
If only there was a part of that rule that shouldn’t be ignored:
I didn’t find it offensive – just stupid. Like being offensive just for the sake of being offensive.
It’s a stupid rule and it should have been up to the community to decide if task’s thread was worthwhile, not ravenman and twickster.
Stupid idea of yours.
I have seen plenty of thread titles so disgusting I would not want to look at them
at all, much less for the length of time it would take to take some kind of poll.
Not only that, but this place is so full of JHS+moonbeamer/libertarian types that
it might be no thread was ever locked if it were up to a poll.
