Well that is unfortunate.  What a perfect example of satire.  Oh wait!  Independent thought and all that............

Too bad.

You answered your own question.

That means their cynicism is well-placed and that reflects poorly on the asylum.

I don't see how they get any participants anymore.  If we were joking and having fun on a thread, and one of our mods locked it, I think we'd all scramble the hell out of here and meet up elsewhere.  The very nerve!

Actually, the I think that the lock was a perfect ending to the thread. It DOES make sense to the humor, and it couldn't have gone much farther than it already had.

Point well taken.  Over at $hit-wit Central they're always full of $hit, often out of wit. :uhsure:
