Wow. You just can not fuck up these days. If you do, your life will be ruined. You won’t get a reprimand, you won’t get laughed at. You will become unemployed unemployable unlovable piece of garbage.

Basically we’ve adapted shunning from the Amish to the internet.

It’s an upgrade from the old “You wouldn’t hit a guy with glasses, would ya?” line. No matter what he’s saying, punching a guy holding a baby makes _you_ the bad guy.

> showdow4md, welcome to the Straight Dope. I’m simply curious what motivates you to find a thread that is 10 years old, register for the dope, and resurrect it with your first post. And the first post seems to be the same Jason Boyd. Who incidentally sounds like a total a\*\*hole.

I’n not the poster in question, but if I lived in that town and saw Jason Boyd being an arse _again_, I’d google to see where else remembered him being an arse the first time, and fill them in. Even if that meant registering.
