The past twelve hours....

I must admit I didn't think much of Andy first time I laid eyes on him; looked like a stiff breeze would blow him over. That was my first impression of the man.

Red. Folks around here just call me Red.

Why?

Maybe it's because I'm Irish.

I have no idea to this day what those two Italian ladies were singing about.

Truth is, I don't want to know.

Some things are best left unsaid.

I'd like to think they were singing about something so beautiful, it can't be expressed in words, and makes your heart ache because of it.

Here's the issue with uncited referential humor on the internet. I like it, personally. But the problem is that you're going to reach a very broad audience, and inevitably some of that audience is not going to get the reference. Depending on the content, a literal interpretation of the quote without being familiar with the reference can be QUITE offensive.

I recently got a very graphic illustration of this professionally with a joke that went awry. I made a joke referring to the 'Lisa Is A **** McClusky' phenomenon, and one of the people who didn't catch it also happens to have a very loyal and passionate fan base who will attack on the word 'frog'. I dodged a bullet after it was explained to people, we all laughed and have traded in-jokes ever since, but the point was made that some people just aren't going to get your jokes.

So whenever you make referential humor, you run the risk of your audience not catching the reference. If you're willing to account for the risk in making that statement, have at.

In this case, I just didn't catch it. He shouldn't have to cite references or anything, and I don't think that arguments being made seriously. We can't completely kill humor on the internet, y'know.

I get the part about running risk to offend someone, though here it does not apply. In those situations an easy explanation clears it all up. This was different. He wasnt offended by the statement, he just disliked the source material & the problem arose when he got pissy for assuming Danger was trying to pass it off as his own.

I must admit I didn't think much of Andy first time I laid eyes on him; looked like a stiff breeze would blow him over. That was my first impression of the man.

"These walls are funny. First you hate 'em, then you get used to 'em. Enough time passes, you get so you depend on them."


...that's a fitting one for the prisoners here.

Because the mods are pathetic Nazi overlords with sad lives who have nothing better to do than violate LBK's constitutional rights.

That's the truthful version. Some accounts will say that it was because he advertised his blog, but they can't prove that.

Maybe it was because the "BooHoo lil bitch crew" hijacked the thread and made it about me, again. Really, given that one of the mods, with a tiny little bit of power, was posting in the thread well before it was deleted, it can't be because I posted the address of my blog.

You DO seem to have a painful and misunderstood obsession with the Oxford comma.

Clearly, you have no idea what you're talking about, moron. The Oxford Comma is the comma used directly before the coordinating conjunction in a list. What I use commas in are called parenthetical expressions, which are words or phrases that can be removed without having an effect on the main idea of the sentence. I've given this remedial grammar lesson to you before, moron. Try to learn from it this time, bitchtard.

You're not supposed to advertise for your blog on this site so I exercised my tiny little bit of power and deleted your thread.

Says the guy who changed the topic of conversation back to him, again.

Or, you know, it was exactly that. Talking about you in a thread, original topic or otherwise, is not a cause for deletion. You breaking the rules is. Too bad you dont understand the difference.

 

[lil bitch Kid]

You're not supposed to advertise for your blog on this site so I exercised my tiny little bit of power and deleted your thread.

However, one of your other power wanting douchebag buddies posted right along with others. Did you mean for it to be a pissing contest between two idiots with a tiny bit of "power", so you undermined the other moron?

I know you don't really understand what you "read", but, one of the other "BooHoo lil bitch crew" started this thread about me.

Yet every time people begin discussing something else, you just cant wait to get the attention back on you.

Not so much. Actually, that happens quite organically. You know, with fans like the "BooHoo lil bitch crew" of accounts obsessing over me, topics have a tendency to come back to me without me using any effort.

Has reading it a second time helped you?

Except what you did was not organic & took effort on your part. There you go again using words that dont apply to the situation.

You quoted a post from quite early in the day & one from yesterday, skipping over an entire different topic of conversation, just so you could change the subject back to you.


You are just like a child, ignored by his parents, who starts acting a fool to get attention.

Both those posts were about me, I responded.

Did quoting it help you to feel better about nut-cutting your fellow "power ranger"?

What you, use are, commas, in an entirely bizarre, way, but then, find Google, references, then apply them, incorrectly.

Like, the Secret, History of Ayn, Rand all, over again.

I don't know what you're talking about. Do we have a problem?

You forgot the end of your sentence, so I fixed it for you. I would hate it if your statement was taken out of context somehow.

No, what I do, unlike you, is use the English language correctly.

No, you misquoted me this time. In the past you have, because you are an ignorant moron, taken things out of context.

 

[lil bitch Kid]

Well, your fellow "power ranger" was posting in the thread you deleted. In deleting the post, you implied that you felt that you had "more power" than him as a mod and didn't feel he was doing his job well enough. You cut his nuts off in this forum. You tell me, do we have a problem?

What's up, Y2eh?

I've figured out the real reason why you were put in prison.

You've accumulated too much bad comma.

I didn't imply anything. I certainly didn't imply someone wasn't doing their job well enough. You're making up stories. Are you one of those cool anti establishment posters that thinks the moderators of this site have too much power?
