You actually LISTEN to the Spice Girls? I thought they were one of the reasons for the mute button.

Only for karaoke. I sang that at a straight bar once for karaoke, with at least 5 bikers there sitting at the bar. After the first 5 seconds, I heard "What the fuck is this?". It was brilliant.

What're they going to do about it?

If they act on it, then surely those corrupt bastards are just reinforcing that opinion.
The above post may or may not be serious.

Bah goddamn humbug.

I am sick and tired of seeing these idiotic threads. You wanna know what this forum really needs?
More Moderation!
We need the glorious shackles of fascism to befall this horrendously 'free' forum and crack down on these sacks of wine who question the ultimate authority.
How dare you have the audacity to criticize our Dear Leaders. Mods, I would like to make a suggestion. DOS anyone who stands in the glorious way of progress and order. And don't even get me started on the hellhole that is the 'appeals' process. Who do these peasant think they are?

Down with the revolution! Down with the commie bastards! Long live Max Barry! Hurrah!

Careful with the rhetoric there. Rocket science, "grow a thicker skin" ... they really don't belong in the same paragraph.

I like you, I really do. Nothing brightens my day more than a bright new poster. But ... nothing darkens my day more than seeing a bright new poster get stomped. Did I say nothing? There is one thing more darkening and depressing to me, and that's when it me that stomps the bright new poster. I wish I would never do that again, but I probably will. Forum culture.

I'm just saying, take your time before deciding who to cut loose on with rhetoric like that. Make friends and enemies in equal measure. Dress your words as well as your purse can afford ... and all that other stuff which Polonius said. Y'know.

Look where he ended up though with all that good advice.

That was more to the poster you were quoting than yourself.

I'm not sure why I quoted your post rather than the other one.

Excuse you? I am not from some "hell-hole public school", I am from one of the highest rated in the city, and I don't "need to take my frustrations out on someone".

You ain't nobody if you haven't had a warning from Katganistan. :p


Kat has never warned me, and I wouldn't say I am nobody. However, I do now have a goal: one mod warning by the end of the year. The duty falling to Kat for preference.

Now, Jim, I thought we agreed -- no foreplay in front of the kids?

Well... Scolo and GMC can handle the military, Nathi and myself can handle diplomacy, the WA mods (past and present) could handle EU and UN membership, Kat can be our charismatic leader that solves the budget crisis with the rest of the mods as ministers to their preferred area of expertise.
