***DISCLAIMER*** let me clarify that if you watch the entirety of the clip, my post seems all the more relevant, and less demeaning.

That video is the epitome of what this forum is not.

That video is the epitome of what this forum is not.

Insults with further explanation of said insults that eventually turns into a discussion of gays that is informative but still peppered with further insults. How is that not this forum?

[nebulae]

Because now, before you get to that level of understanding and laughter, it's cut off before the true discussion can actually occur. That video used to be this forum.

True, and part of the reason I posted it is because since it's video you don't have the "what do they really mean?" factor you get in just text and somebody always has to jump to the worst conclusion.

Imagine on this forum if the same discussion took place where somebody gave the history of the term faggot reference to gays when they were burned with the rest of the kindling bundles called faggots and the next response was "So gays make a good alternative fuel source". Satire in the video, hate speech on this forum.

^agreed, and that does support Dave's argument that the Internet is a difficult place for nuanced satire. Then again, that's the shame of it, because we maintained that kind of balance here for a very long time before it went to shit.

neb, lately it's getting harder and harder to understand you.

WTF?

[nebulae]

Ambiguity keeps me employed...you can't possibly expect a lawyer to explain himself.

Also, Tod just TXTed me saying he was banned. Bummer. Real bummer, and a sad loss for this community.

Now THAT is totally… well, you know what.

I made a lovely breakfast today: Scrambled egg whites with a bit of sprinkled cheese, free-range organic chicken sausage, whole grain toast, organic orange juice, and Tim Horton's (Canadian) coffee. I realize these are just the essentials, but it was still damn tasty. Still full from it, and it's well past lunchtime.

This reminds me neb, how did your toilet cleaning go the other night? Were your guests able achieve the sublime bowel movements they deserve or what? Please keep us posted.
