Also used in combination with anti-depressants for major depression.

This is true of me, unfortunately.

Hey, you have lots of practice creative writing, why not just write out your own ideas? I mean, this works as snark, but it could also seriously be a better use of your energy.

[Someone]

squish7 has promised to post links to some of his "past work," but hasn't returned (yet).

I have a feeling it's going to be like that time Try2BComprehensive shared his satirical campaign posters, and they looked like something a third-grader would make.

Why bother? Zotardi was able to get his shtick written for him by offering the derpoids a "SDSAB title." He got the ideas for his column from those we now snark. All you need is the right carrot and a pocket full of tards to chase it.

[Someone]

Can someone please link me to the post where Clothahump bitches about an electric lawnmower or something? Everyone keeps bringing it up, but fuck if I know what they're talking about.

I wonder if he ended up using any of them. I mean, people like him are where you get the "ORANGE MAN BAD!!!" stereotype from.

Who's 'bringing it up' and where? Any interesting snark-value?

[Someone]

squish7 finally returned. The mods apparently aren't crazy about the idea of a thread devoted to the collected works of an obvious wacko.

When trying to find that thread I saw people mention it a lot in subsequent threads on the dope. it doesn't come up much here. But Clothy doesn't post that much anymore and many of his posts are just chatty message board stuff.

It is a very r/thathappened kind of story.

[Someone]

Gotta admit, 8 years and 146 pages are some pretty repectable stats for a thread. Even if it is mostly bullshit.

[Someone]

Huey calls madsircool's wife a "handbag," whatever that means.

https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb...6#post21442476

[Someone]

It's "Huey" speak for a non-American; imported, like a handbag.

[Someone]

I continue to marvel at the lack of moderatory oversight with Huey. But I might have stronger feelings about dragging people's children and spouses into arguments than others.

ETA: provided they exist. Sorry Acey.

[Someone]

Question -- is he saying that R. Kelly and Bill Cosby weren't guilty when he said "white fingerprints were all over it", or that "white fingerprints" were why they were ignored?

The "handbag": I get the impression he's intensely anti bi-racial relationship, and thinks that any white person who's in one is only doing so to show off, like buying a designer purse or whatever.

[Someone]

I didn't follow that either.

I wonder if he'll ever get so much as a mod note.

[Someone]

He has before, which is why he sticks to the Pit. He got one in Great Debates for saying "negro, please", but after Bone gave him some advice to tone down the rhetoric, he claimed he got warned for being anti-white. (Sorry, I don't have a link)

Thanks. I think he claimed that "I was basically told I was unwelcome in a white man's space" or some nonsense like that. I don't know if I find him offensive or hilarious.

[Someone]

In searching for that, I found that Bone gave him an actual warning as well:

Which prompted the ATMB thread:

Miller might need a primer in hate speech.

[Someone]

At least Huey is entertaining. I can't wait until octopus finally pushes his limit and gets his ass banned. He's that annoying little twerp who likes to play "I'm not touching you!"

Why can't it be be both?

I'm sure it was mixed. Terror mixed with contempt.

Whoa! I thought that was hyperbole. I took a look figuring I'd see some bad photoshopping for a laugh but damn! They're just pictures of posterboard with stuff drawn and glued to them by someone who has apparently never heard of a ruler. That's Sylvyr Tygyr level bad!

We're seeing epic NFL type "missed calls" in the modding of Huey. Even with the benefit of instant replay, the mods are missing the calls.


But, on the lighter side...

I wasn't bitching about an electric lawnmower. I was using an electric lawnmower to mow my lawn when an entitled queen bee liberal that was out jogging stopped and chewed me out for polluting the environment with fumes. She apparently could not tell the difference between a gas mower and an electric one.

Sadly, I did not have my phone handy or I would have recorded her rant. It was entertaining. By the time I went in, got my phone and went back outside, she had made it down to the corner and all I got was a distance shot of her. The retards on the Durp accused me of making the whole thing up, because they're...well, retards.

If there's a new thread I enourage Fenris to do the not-wrong thing in terms of a title. It doesn't have to be an overworked reference to some obscure use of 112. You can just name the thread and add the number. Stop the inanity!

[Someone]

I think you wildly exaggerated the story -- at best. But I also think you've told yourself the story so many times you no longer have an accurate memory of it.

[Someone]

We had an electric mower when I was a kid, until my brother ran over the power cord. Fortunately it just tripped the breaker, and didn't plunge the city into a blackout where undoubtedly there would be riots and looting. But I could be misremembering.
