son of the isolated blurts thread!

According to peer reviewed surveys, they are not the same poster.

QJ will be back, he has taken breaks before.

Ah well, if the surveys are peer reviewed. . . :D

I can honestly say my evening was ruined by a dull axe.
 
I found that one the other day and was laughing my ass off.

I couldn't decide if QJ disappeared because of that thread, or if it was because another problem child got banned. That would kind of make sense, although I wouldn't have pegged them as the same poster but now I'm a'wonderin.

A lot of malcontents strike a chord of familiarity because the M.O. is always fairly similar. Anti-social behavior is pretty much all done the same way. In this case it's simplified because their "weapon" of choice is words on a keyboard of course.

It's the "signature" that varies. What is it that makes Poster A and all his alts apart from and distinct from Poster B?

Sometimes it has to do with how they spend their idle time here between fights...often though there are some pretty obvious signs as to what their syntax is like, what their word choices tend to be..like that. I have a lot of siblings and we all grew up exposed to the same linguistic inputs. I could probably tell even from a short note which sib typed what.

I was bemused about a combative one today...in fairness to him, he really didn't "start it" .....even if he did kind of ask for it, and certainly exacerbated it.

The difference between the poster today (or QJ) as being distinct from the banned one...the banned one, the fight WAS his signature. He picked fights to pick fights...that WAS his essence. Others display their essence WHEN they engage in a fight, but it is not their raison d' etre. Even a hair trigger is not the same thing as someone that scoops up the field mice and bops them on the head because that is who he is.

Annoying as people can be I still find them fascinating to observe...why anyone feels the need to go to a zoo other than the cute fur is beyond me.

OK, while this is tragic of course...holy crap, if you're driving, fucking drive and don't do anythingthefuckelse while you're doing it!

if she had to hit anything at all, i'm glad it was a fucking semi: stupidity should only be fatal to oneself, not others.

The more threads I read, the more often I bump into something or someone that squicks me.
 
A certain thread brought this clip to mind today. Ya'll should be proud of me for exercising restraint! ;):D
 
Besides being an alcoholic beverage and psychoactive, wine is also a lubricant. ;)

Nudge nudge, wink wink, say no more!
 
Wow. I was not thinking "Don Jon' would have any depth but I am going to strongly recommend. On the surface it's just a movie but the insight into sexuality in the era of porn and one-night stands has more subtlety in the end than I expected.
 
Karma is a bitch and I have her on speed dial. Be nice as I will endeavor to be. :) I need this on a card to hand out.
 
no recess? what cockamamie lunacy is that? i'm not a teacher, but goodness, how in the hell are kids going to behave in class without any kind of recess whatsoever?

I've never before experienced working at one job while applying for others. It feels uncomfortable, especially with the push to focus on next year right now. I feel like I'm lying. The fact that my school is making ridiculously horrible curricular changes for next year, as well as scheduling changes that do not take normal childhood development in mind, is helping me care less.

4th grade and up- no recess. Zero, zip, nada.
K-3 - 15 minutes per day, our kindergarten is full day. 7.25 hours of school with a 15 minute break. Silent lunch is a thing that happens all the time. This all makes no sense.

For the first time, I have an end of school year countdown going. :( Usually I feel sad at the end. This year, relief.

Expect to see a proliferation in the false diagnosis of ADD, ADHD, et.al., in your schools future, and as a direct result, massive drugging of the kids to bring them into such strict conformation. No good will come of these insane policies!
