Sunny side up.

Put it on a bun.

Looks a little like an armoured, fur-lined condom, no?

Today, I learned that the standards of discourse here in the Cellar are quite remarkable.

It's OK to "blame the victim" for being abused, so long as the abuser is not "intolerably annoying"

I don't quite know what "intolerably annoying" really means.
At least the following mode of trolling does not meet that standard.

a) pick a target
b) goad with ad hominem insults
c) gloat by self-aggrandizement
d) deny fallibility
Repeat, ad nauseum

So, I've decided to leave.
For the most part, I've enjoyed my stay here.
But I will enjoy dealing with the Donald Trump's of the world elsewhere.

Take care.

He wanted me to ban Sexobon, and I explained via pm that while I consider Sexobon to be a shit stirrer I don't think it's right for me to ban him.

Gravdigr · 11-26-2015, 11:22 AM

Well, damn, Lamp! If that's how ya feel, that's how ya feel, I guess...

Stay thirsty, my friend.

Clodfobble · 11-26-2015, 11:40 AM

Today I learned (not for the first time) that rather than call someone out for behavior he disapproves of, Lamp will instead whine that no one else has called out that person, and then flounce off (again, not for the first time.)

The Cellar is primarily self-policing, just like real social interactions. What you're doing here is nothing less than shirking your responsibility as a member of the community.

Very obviously, "intolerably annoying" is annoying to the community, not annoying to any one member of the community. Otherwise we'd all be gone.

So, go find people who think exactly like you. Then you can politically whack off to your heart's content, and always be correct, without having to deal with disagreement or any challenges to your point of view. JUST REMEMBER THAT THIS IS HOW POLITICS MAKES YOU STUPID
