You fully deserved every angry mob I sent after you in the cutesie-wootsie, overused. and/or trendy expressions thread.

Nonetheless, I shall share my marshmallows with you and with everyone.

the government has gone beyond simple surveillance to actually copyrighting what they discover online.

once they own the rights, they remove it to prevent piracy.

it's then moved to their online store, where you can buy it.

Peddle that tin-foil-hat conspiracy theory anti-government-surveillance bullshit elsewhere, Edward Snowden


^ and this, Craig, is what one does if one chances to meet Haskins in a thread.

Sometimes a mod will pm a poster asking something like "Are you batshit crazy? Do you REALLY want to say that? I can see your point but do you REALLy want to use that tone????"

And then the poster thinks to herself--you know, just because I am WAAAY smarter and WAAAY righter than anyone else on this thread why rub their noses in my brilliance?

Not that this has happened to me. Not more than twice anyway.--s6

i've been threatened (more specifically, my testicles have) by more than half a dozen of this board's mod crew. normally they travel in packs but even alone, they are menacing.

We Cabbies have a little tradition of the mods changing our avatars to something ridiculous when we reach nice round post milestones -- e.g., 6000.

Ah! That explains that.

(Also, for the record, I have never menaced Haskins. At least as far as I know. Yet.)

At least you still have your foolish pride.


S-6, looking at that avatar of yours, it's difficult to envision you posting anything remotely nasty.

Oh, you are totally missing out.

cray, your jackboot tactics are robbing Craig of much insightful wisdom and scathing wit. And Haskins made a couple of posts in there, too.

Restore those posts, stat, or I will press the report button.

I'm not surprised. I've noticed you getting increasingly curt with yourself.

Where are they selling tickets? That should be interesting.
Poor Craig, is he confused enough yet?
