Sometimes. Some servers will “rule 1” you and rule one basically amounts to “don’t say things I don’t like.”

And then sometimes you say the Tiflis bank robbery was bad because they blew up innocent people on the street with grenades, and then a guy responds that “it was pretty cool actually,” and then you get banned for saying “well I hope something cool happens to you then” in an attempt to get them to empathize with the victims by putting themselves as the victim instead if the “pretty cool” robbers, despite being the one who in practice is against the murder of innocents, and then you can’t tell if you were banned because the mod couldn’t process the context of the thread or because they were a tankie who agrees murdering innocents is, in fact, pretty cool. I mean, sure I was being rude becauase I’m not usually nice when people say murdering innocents in the process of a bank robbery is “pretty cool,” so, 50/50, but it’s still silly.

And then sometimes you get banned because one person on your server has an argument with one mod on another and the second mod decides to ban your whole instance as a result because he’s totally not butthurt.

It’s a little more transparent, but this place can be just as silly as reddit.

Man I miss CD drives.

(The joke was: you mean “bait and switch.” “Bate” is short for “masturbate.”)

bate and switch

Is that when you use your left hand?

but how many of today’s middle-aged people grew up listening to radio shows

THE Shadow knows! MUAHAHAHAHA!

Am middle aged too, grew up on nerdy old shit. Don’t forget to stock up on Blue Anthracite coal and Chesterfields!

Tbh, while I could start drinking more again just to meet people, bars are expensive these days. I can’t afford friends nor dates. Unless maybe I only eat ramen forever.

Finding someone romantic/friends is difficult when you haven’t fully AA quit drinking, but you’re also disillusioned with hammered bar culture and driving drunk and don’t want to do that anymore, and also would rather spend your money on not $10 Evan Williams and gingers all night when they don’t even have the good Evan which only costs like $30 for a giant bottle.

Hmmm…

I half trust you then I guess but you’re still a spy!

I’m the opposite, I only trust you if you say reesees peesees. The other way you’re either a spy or a terminator awaiting activation.

I also don’t trust people who don’t pee in the shower, but that’s just because they’re lying.

Unfortunately I can’t convince this to load, but Emo rules.

My psychiatrist gave me a chocolate Easter bunny and I ate the bunny, but then I thought, "hey, this isn't Easter". "Is this a test?"

And he said, "Yes."

"And what does it mean?"

He said, "Had you eaten the ears first you would have been normal. Had you eaten the feet first you would have had an inferiority complex. Had you eaten the tail first you would have had latent homosexual tendencies and had you eaten the breasts first you would have had a latent Oedipal complex."

"Well...go on, what does it mean when you bite out the eyes and scream 'STOP STARING AT ME!!!?'"

He said, "It means you have a tendency towards self-destruction."

I said, "Well, what do you recommend?"

He said, "Go for it!"

Just fucking install linux jfc

Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

Ah yes, a guy who doesn’t have fun questions is “second worst.” We can assume murderers are “the worst,” so the list so far is:

Worst - Murderer
Second worst - Boring questioner
Third worst - Probably rapist I guess
Fourth worst - Domestic Violencer?
Fifth worst - Disney adult
Yadda yadda yadda
Second best - Pedro Pascal
Best - Me

Honestly, I wish. The car hacking community is almost nonexistent, and doing it voids your warranty. I’m just hoping it picks up as warranties expire due to time/milage.

You literally told me to “stop believing in the sky daddy” in reference to “who knows, the government isn’t even denying it anymore, there could be something out there.” I literally copied/pasted it in a previous comment because it seemed like you forgot, but now I’m thinking this is just a sad attempt at gaslighting.

Dude. The thread is all there above, it’s not like you can say “nuh uh I never said that” when there’s a written record of you having said that, right there, and all you have to do is scroll up.

You read again. I never once was talking about her specific whatever and I clarified as much, your refusal to accept that isn’t my problem (well, aside from it being connected to your continuing to try and be a smug dick about something I never claimed and refuse to go away.)

I’ve invented no narratives. YOU did. You’re the one who has ascribed meaning to my comments and refuse to accept the truth that I was talking about the phenomenon at large not some specific lady’s claims.

No dingus, its your abject dismissal of the possibility that there could be something you don’t know in the universe, “sky daddy” is just your way to be a snarky douch about it and feel superior and smart for stealing it from a meme (you’re not creative, I’ve seen it before.) You are so upset about the fact that I’m an agnostic about the possibility that there is something to all the countless reports of UAPs over the literal centuries, by all means don’t let me shake your faith, but you’re not going to shake my lack of one either, and have even less of a chance to do so the more you try to act like a smug dick.

This would be the perfect time to end this tiresome “you missing the point” contest.

Please, please, let go of the notion that there is any kind of sky daddy coming to save you. There’s no god, no religious figure, no celebrity, no politician, no aliens who care about you or us or want to save us. There’s just you wanting to take care of you, and yeah it would be a relief to not have to do that and struggle, but that’s not happening. Let go of sky daddy.

You literally pleaded with me to “give up the sky daddy.” Come the fuck on dude. Quit pretending you weren’t attempting to be a dick.

Tbf, they’re kinda not actually denying it anymore since the pentagon released the tic tac video (among others) and actually admitted “yeah this is real and we have no fucking clue what it is.” They’re just called UAPs now instead of UFOs.

And the interdimensional theory isn’t a fabrication of her mind, it’s one of the leading theories, along with “actual aliens” and “us from the future.” It’s not even the wildest theory thrown around, some think the crafts themselves are alive, and the biological looking things we call aliens are the drones. Of course, all just theories.

Now does she “have proof” of any of that beyond what the pentagon has already admitted? Likely not, but someone probably does have some more info than we know, she just ain’t in the club.

This is what you replied to. Please point to where I said “she’s 100% right and I want to have her babies” or whatever fucking bullshit you think I said. If it’s the part where I said “she didn’t invent the idea that they’re interdimensional” then thanks for playing please try again.

Kindly huff your own farts somewhere else, will you?

And your strawman is that I support some specific lady I’ve never heard of so I guess we’re at a stalemate. Was this fun for you, or?..

Alright then:

Genuinely, WHAT

I never said what she said was the absolute truth! Read again! I never gave any statement on this specific “spaceship” coming for us that contains “aliens” that MAGA and billionaire fascists are talking about.

Sorry to “chopped and screwed” your comment, but same same. I never said this bitch was some alien ambassador, I said you can’t entirely discount the existence of UAPs anymore like people have been since (well, actually before, but) 1947.

Go project your political bullshit on someone else, this conversation is about the potential existence of UAPs. And they’re NOT the only ones talking about it.

let go of the notion that there is any kind of sky daddy coming to save you.

And you prefer the equally improbable idea of “we’re entirely alone in the universe?” While also discounting the possibility that there could be anything but benevolence (like malevolence, or indifference, even fully autonomous and devoid of the will necessary to ascribe them any of these attributes)?

I prefer the Robert Anton Wilson approach of agnosticism to most things (in life, not just this): “I don’t know, and you don’t either.”
