I love your name so damn much. As an English major and former English grad student, I am also so confused about the poetry thread in this thread. That’s clearly Yeats. Has the world come to the point where we’re doing poetry trolling now?

This is so on point. Great analogy.

I’m picturing those Dharma Initiative videos from Lost with the scratchy video and the weird audio at the beginning.

This is some peak Burneko. Love it. Put a temporary smile on my face.

As a lawyer in Oklahoma, I have always felt like doctoring evidence in a Supreme Court brief so he could put someone to death with experimental drugs should have gotten Pruitt disbarred:

Apparently during the election, there were sub reddits being used by Trump supporters to plan and coordinate online trolling (not saying they were paid or part of the Trump campaign - more likely just a bunch of alt right MRA nut bags who already spend half their days on subreddits and 4 chan, and the other half…

This is a great step. I’m an officer in a guild that has been trying to recruit a couple of members for our raid team. Right now, if we find a good pug from another server and invite them to join our guild, I essentially have to go buy a $25 visa electronic giftcard, have it sent to the recruit (which requires the…

Vladimir Putin had someone grab it to add to his collection of Patriots Memorabilia:

*our current “so called POTUS”

Just showing him the same respect he shows for the rest of our Constitutional system.

It’s absurd. I’m a real property lawyer (residential transactions mostly), so I tend to go to property law CLEs and breakfasts/luncheons that have a lot of oil and gas people in them because our areas over lap. The people in the industry all know that the disposal wells are causing the earthquakes, they just don’t…

I found myself in the “I’d rather spend the holidays at home alone with my cats than ever set foot in my racist aunt’s house again” camp these last holidays.

Fuck Scott Pruitt. I actively tried to get him disbarred for this shit 2 years ago, but I could only find like 5 other people who cared:

You are so much more optimistic than me. I live and work in Oklahoma. I shit you not, most of my office thinks he is doing a phenomenally better job than Obama. They won’t stop praising him.

I’m just patiently waiting for the world to end.

Probably not. Last time I checked there was no one even mildly interested in joining me in a relationship.

I was a kid and my mom was really into figuring skating. My mom was full on team Kerrigan. I’ve always been a sucker for both underdogs and antagonizing my parents, so I was full on team Harding.

I was also like the one white kid at school who was fervently “O.J. is innocent!”

I also routed against Michael Jordan no…

And yes I know that this is not Bowling Green Kentucky - BUT IT’S NOT A REAL MASSACRE THAT HAPPENED. THAT IS PART OF THE JOKE.

Since us millennials like to use special profile pics to show we care about things, I made one for the Bowling Green Massacre:

Thanks. I’ll usually respond once to anyone that asks a question or challenges a point I raised - because someone else may honestly have a similar question and benefit from my response, but if they keep going after that and it becomes clear that they are only trolling, then I shut them down.

Yes, I grew up with a guy who was really into those conspiracy theories. There are several recordings of when the bombing happened because this was in the middle of down town OKC and various meetings that were happening in adjacent office buildings were being recorded.

On some of these, people argue it sounds like…

I’m familiar with the name from my readings, but I don’t think I was aware that he had his own published memoirs. Thank you for the recommendation.
