She's devastated, and that stuff comes out, often at the most inopportune times and places. I wish she'd get out of the Pit, but maybe fighting with morons is helping her release some of her emotion.

There's also some good ole woman-bashing going on under the surface. I'd never heard of pool or mr. duality. I'm glad I don't post in the forums they do. This sick underbelly is a liability, not an asset to the Derp. I thought miller wanted to change things in the Pit. Not allowing disgusting personal attacks like the cat comments is one way. Some people were able to address margin's political comments and still offer their condolences. That's how you do it.

I reported pool. I hope Miller takes note. pool is trolling. Those comments are really below the belt.

Doesn't the Durp have a minimum age of 13?

He's clearly trolling in this post.

I edited a warning into that post- it’s an old thread and I was caught unaware about the cruelty in the OP linked to and I wished there had been a warning.

Then I remembered- I’m a mod! I can fix it. So, I did.

[Someone]

Thanks, Pure. I'm not going to read it.

Don't. Take it from me, that post is some disturbing shit.

@Pure, perhaps you should go back to Guin's post and put that link in a spoiler. If anything needs a two-click rule applied, this does.

[Someone]

I read that and now I need a shower. FFS, some people. *shudder*

I’m on my phone so it’s a bit of a challenge. Hopefully the content warning will be enough until someone comes along or I can get to it.

Done. No biggie, Guin, but that was an extra layer of protection was warrented.

If Miller doesn't drop a warning on him for trolling in the pit, then we need some tar, feathers and a few pitchforks. (Not for Miller)

Sorry, I really should've thought of that.

Miller was a little slow about it, but he does the right thing:

[Moderating]
Well, this thread has gone to absolute shit. I'm closing it. If someone wants to open a new one about the original topic, that's fine, but I don't want to see any mention of dead cats in it, from anyone. (The poster Dead Cat is excepted.)

pool, there are limits even in the Pit, and you blew way past them. I'm giving you a warning for being too much of an asshole even by Pit standards.

Thankfully, I have no firsthand knowledge of how pedos groom their victims. However, I personally wouldn't have trouble with an adult explaining a plumbing fixture. In an age-appropritate way, of course, either "you can use it to clean your behind after you go" or "it's called a bidet; your parents can tell you what it does." If a troublesome pattern shows up, or if the child starts acting oddly, then by all means find out what's going on, but the vast majority of adults would never dream of harming a child.

My mother was about the biggest prude in the universe but I grew up in the day where commercials for Summer's Eve and Massengill Disposable Douches were on like every single commercial break. One night I finally asked her what these vaguely-described but apparently necessary things were. "Some women use them to clean their butts," said the woman who told me she didn't know what maxi pads are for. Fine. Asked and answered.

As for the maxi pads, I would stick them to the soles of my feet because they were just about the right size and squishy to walk on. She left it to my sisters to straighten me out on that one

[Someone]

Swiffers and Maxi Pads, two items that are overpriced, yet interchangeable.

Are you related to this guy?



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sgMl-iZ3tZM if it's not working.

(I couldn't remember the name of the brand - this ad was years ago - so I searched for "pew pew pad ad" and there it was, first result.)

Why, yes. I have "massive drooling moron". After seeing that thread, I'm adding "gaping asshole" to the listing.

What kind of title is this? No play on the fact that 127 is 1111111 in binary?

The closed margin thread at least produced one little bit of wisdom:

Yeah, I've seen this a number of times at the Dope. Internet points to Carnal for reminding people of this.

And remember, HeyHomie's wife is a regular babysitter for this girl - 4-5 times/month. So it's not some stranger walking up to a kid and saying "Hey, hey, wanna know what a bidet is?", it's someone who they've already trusted to care for their child. So yeah, a simple "It's for washing your backside after you pee/poop" is completely normal.

Miller gives warnings to margin and bucketybuck for getting into a pissing contest.

https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb...&postcount=144

[Someone]

Some complicated snark with a flounce (except for cat news), a troll/bot accusation, that leads to some retrosnark featuring Shagnasty's dating prowess.

Starts here where Spinky? bumps a thread to be a dick.

Turns out Spinky likes to bump threads to be a dick. Here he bumps the Shaggy thread and gets called a sock/troll/bot.

This may be too complicated.

[Someone]

I've been plagiarized, I think.

Paul in Qatar can't remember.

Now I am trying to find my original post. I have done a number of searches, but I cannot find it anywhere. Does anyone remember my post from more than ten years ago? Does our search function only go so far back?

Probably posted it on FFF or Dumbo.

Ahhhhh, curlcoat. I hope the door did hit her on the ass on the way out. Hard.

And one of the reasons why I browse the durp with a sock is so I can ignore P in Q and his mass murder fetish, let alone posts he might have made 10 years ago.

A harmless thread about winking, and panache had to go and make it wierd

[Someone]

Ever ask a guy what time it is and he spends 10 minutes telling you how to build a watch?

A noobie to the derp goes into full derp mode 'splaining why some races smell worse than others. Bumping an ancient thread to do so!

I had no idea lingyi was a middle-aged nincompoop. From his posts, I got the impression he was a way younger (like, 20s) nincompoop.

Me too.

I’ve been meaning to post here about his constant East Asia fanboy posts. He Asia-jacks like mad. Apparently he’s Japanese-American, but I don’t know if he ever lived in Japan or anywhere else over there.

I originally thought he was a young white otaku-type who was obsessed with all of East Asia instead of just Japan. I was somewhat surprised to find out he is of an Asian ethnic background. I’m completely flabbergasted that he’s 60!

[Someone]

This cracked me up from the Lingyi thread:

Not necessarily. Maybe noob read the rules for a change. "Don't be a jerk" appears prominently in there.

I appreciate that Dopers are stepping up to tell him he's full of shit.

Whenever I start thinking that I can't take any more of the Derp's stupidity, something like this comes along and I reconsider.

[Someone]

does anyone else find the thread about reclining your seat on the airplane funny?

Just because you are too short to be bothered by a seat reclining into your knees, doesn't mean we all are. My knees sit immediately behind your seat at the best of times. When you recline back you hit my knees, unless I have room to spread them. When you recline back there is /never/ room for my tray to sit flat, and if I'm sitting there with the tray at 20 degrees, I blame the airline for not asking you to adjust your seat at meal times. When my foot goes out into the aisle so that you can recline, the cabin crew step on it.

listen, I wish I (still) had the life where I could afford to travel by air and worry about stuff like this instead of worrying about ending up living in my car (or losing it and living under a bridge) but still, I find it a little funny.

is it just me?

[Someone]

I guess you mean it's a First World Problem thread? I suppose but some people fly for work so it's not they're all complaining how their trip to the Seychelles was nearly ruined by that boor on the plane.
