...you got to be ****ing kidding me.

My reply in this thread was removed...

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.ph...

My reply was facts about hummingbirds, which is a damn sight more informative than the OP itself is. What rule does this violate? Is it likely to derail such an insightful OP? I'm all ears as to how this thread is what you want for DU.

So tell you what, I'll stop posting about famine and poverty and the environment, because clearly you guys prefer such witty and constructive OPs as this one. And besides, millions dying is so passe these days anyways, and doesn't drive up hits like a good flamewar does...

On edit, no need to reply, I'm out. You guys can wallow in the filth that you've let this place become. Have fun storming the castle!

1. Question:
   
Was the thread about hummingbirds?

2. I can only conclude that you feel that was an earnest attempt by the OP for constructive discussion
   
Which leads to my question: How far up your ass is your head so we can determine how long of a crowbar is needed to wedge it out?

Wow. Insulting Skimmer like that is going to put the homo DUmmy forkboy on coach's list for sure.

Now, assuming he doesn't get the granite pizza for calling a brass tack a brass tack,
we need an over/under on the queer DUmmy's return to the DUmp.

Now, that right there is a pretty devastating threat. Losing some queer's lunatic posts about famines will
shake the DUmp to its foundations. But DUmmy forkboy isn't going to have a whole parade of nitwits begging
him to stay, like cali did.

But forkboy's been around a long time, and like most swishy guys, he's an attention whore. My over/under on his return
is Sunday, 8/6.

I give him only a 6.7 for that swan dive into the gravel pit...his entry angle was a little off and didn't make much of a splash.

Porkedboy will need to pout a few days.
Return, 8/8.
Will probably post in the cooking forum. :-)

Wasn't forkboy the DUmmy who scammed a new laptop from California Piggy?

One less gay drama queen at DU.  Once in a blue moon, ol' ForkBoy did have a lucid moment, though, so the collective IQ has dropped again.  That site has the most aggressively piss-poor moderation on the internet, it's like it was a long-running graduate psych experiment in putting authoritarian ideologues in charge and then observing the results.

It was a DUmp thread about ol' Crazy Bernie, and the gayboy's reply got waxed because it discussed hummingbirds. If off-topic replies were held to such a draconian standard on this board, vestanumbers would never have seen the light of day. So...hmm.

Is it really necessary to call Forkboy a homo, swishy, fag, and similar names? There was plenty of reason to drag that post over here without all the manly men calling him names. When do we start calling women bitches or ****s?

If you don't like it here, you can always return to DU.  Nobody asked you to join.

What you mean "we"?
Try to be honest.  The term "you", is more appropriate.

As large as the internet is, I'm sure you can find a place that is just waiting for you to show up and tell them how to behave, but this isn't it.  Keep looking, and please, don't feel obligated to post about it here when you find those lucky, lucky bastards.

Since they can't mention us on their venomous and so-authoritarian-as-to-make-a-Robespierre-envious site, that sounds more like an opportunity than a problem.
