FALCON PUNCH

Hadouken

give the harkonnen a blade

51 is a joke. You need to get anywhere need it -- you just have to piss off one of the "right" users or mods (or one of octopus mod's many tentacles) and you're timed out.

oh good, another county heard from

I’ve reread my own posts a day later and thought “wow, that guy seems like an anxious mess who doesn’t need to be litigating a vague nothing on the internet” and flagged my own post.

I mean, sometimes it’s people being outright dicks or doing ban-worthy things like outright racism and misogyny. Other times, it’s recognizing that someone’s kind of messed up right now and could use a break

like when the bartender at your local cuts you off after two beers and says “hey buddy, I don’t think you need another drink, why not go home and get some rest”
not too many of those bartenders out there but it’s nice when it happens

I can handle more than two beers; ilx can handle some prickly characters such as deej and turrican.

there are reasons we’re on this side of the bar

I wouldn't put deej and turrican together - very unfair on deej.

That’s true but this whole thing was enflamed by mr. d-40. To be fair though no one called for his ban

poor turrican

Both of them could probably do just fine as bartenders though

deej yes, turrican no way.

No, mh and i

I’d be a great bartender mod.

can we drop the rather pocket-sized events of yesterday that got pulled into another dimension of headache across multiple threads and just get back to wondering wtf Turrican’s personality disorder is

No, that's unkind, I hate his online persona but he's probably OK irl... I hope.

i've groaned at turrican many a time, maybe more than any other poster who's gotten under my skin, but good people on this board have taught me that throwing around "personality disorder" is a bad look and unkind; i'd politely ask that you walk that one back.

Yeah, I'm glad the other convo has settled down, but I don't think the best alternative is to endlessly drag a different poster.

Yes “cunt” is not a personality disorder

I apologize for that phrasing

Like Tom, I assume he’s normal and interacts that way because he genuinely can’t help himself

lol or wins otm

"cunt" is also not a cool hip putdown. altho i'm told that for britishers it is *not* a sexist slur?

I'm F-ing every P ITT just to be on the safe side.

For clarification you gotta watch the inbetweeners

xp doctor c

It's been discussed ad nauseum on numerous threads.

^^ should be the new board description for all boards

Yeah Brit-on-Brit usage tends to scan differently although it isn’t cu*t-and-dried, but generally shouldn’t be read as offensive

Then again I’ve argued the opposite for Americans saying “spaz” and there is probably a better case there tbh so

Yeah, I FP'd mh's post immediately. Another example of someone on here who claims to be progressive in his social thinking actually turning out to be a jerk. I'm not surprised.

tbh the “I thought you were acting that way unintentionally and couldn’t help it” is a bad play and I walk it back

I'll gladly accept "cunt" as a description, though!

I do have absolutely no idea why you have any idea what my claims are, though, because we never post in the same threads!

I detect something of an fixation on 'progressive social thinking'.

maybe it's "pocket-sized" for you but considering that I am now worried my boss is going to fire me over being upset at my desk, they are not pocket-sized for me

Tom, if anyone's got a fixation here it's you with me.

I've hardly had anything to do with you since the last time you almost got banned.

Maybe open other threads than this while at your desk to avoid your apparently insane boss firing you rather than having a go at posters advising we “drop it” katherine

I'm not at work right now, it's Saturday

I mean it still applies

no, it doesn't, because even if the threads aren't open they are still taking place and the events still exist and I still have to think about them. and unfortunately it is 2018, there are very few right-to-work states, and there are even fewer jobs, so people will take any excuse to fire an employee

*non-right-to-work states, whichever one is the one without undermined job security

Threads will always still be taking place, this one had entirely moved on until... your post

if it had moved on then you wouldn't have called this situation that I am still having to actively deal with in my real life "pocket-sized"

ok
