Oh, and point of order?

I didn't take any major part in the banning of Mieskie or the decision.

I would a thousand time rather have an asshole in our midst who was openly, non-divisively saying things like

I kinda like being stomped. Not trying if you're not causing trouble.

and that he wanted a Betsy HP sexbot of his own to play with, than have an asshole in disguise going around "reassuring" people...

EDIT: My point is that he was better inside the tent pissing in than inside the tent pretending not to be pissing in.

Won't be around for a while, but not in a sulky way. In a have-to-go-into-town-and-do-stuff way. Back later.

Thrive to spite them

He didn't harass us, he didn't scam us, he didn't even really flame us

Yes he did! That was the whole point of him being suspened in the first place.

He was rude, he made inappropriate comments about other users, he picked fights and arguements.

And he did SCAM US. He scammed us when registered as Schmoker.

Look the rules are clear:

You are suspended and you don't come back for 2 months under ANY NAME. If you do you are BANNED.

And you know what? If for some reason, somewhere down the line, I'm suspended and I ever try to sneak back in under a new name before my 2 months are up, I hope that y'all ban my ass. Because those are the RULES and they need to be enforced.

When we make rules and don't enforce them then the rules are useless. No one is going to pay attention to them. Ever.

Gotta go to dance, be back later.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I move the conversation be closed. Any seconds?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I move the conversation be closed. Any seconds?

PLEASE.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'll cry if it'll help.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Come explain to me why jockstraps are buttless.

Because the jockstrap just needs to secure the guy's package. It doesn't hurt if the glutes are bouncing around. And the design creates one little secure zone with the strappy parts, which would be less secure if it were trying to encompass the bum.

See?

I don't want to talk about the other stuff.

sigh If only this were true.

I...I motion that this were true! Yes, I'm putting it out there right now. I motion that there's no crying in Bureaucracy.
