Uh, my comment was not about IRWS.

Quote from: misterguignol;626200Called on it by making fun of the handicapped.  Good job, bro.

Your mother was not mentioned, in mockery or otherwise, bro.

And, I am really not sure how saying "You are specially abled" is making fun of the handicapped.  If I said "You are a slug" is that making fun of slugs?

By the way, the phrase "handicapped" has gone out of vogue.

Quote from: Mistwell;626202Your mother was not mentioned, in mockery or otherwise, bro.

Wait, you think it's wrong that people were saying shit about James's family earlier in the thread, right?

You can't be this dumb.  You realize that making jokes about short buses is having a laugh at the expense of the handicapped right?

That and pedophelia are fair game around here. The the laffs never stop.

I am glad you got the joke.  I thought it might have been lost on you, bro.

QuoteYou can't be this dumb.  You realize that making jokes about short buses is having a laugh at the expense of the handicapped right?

I did not make a joke about short buses.  I made a joke about a particular person, implying he is specially abled.  It's having a laugh at the guy who I said was specially abled.  Again, if I call you a slug, I am not mocking all slugs, just you.

But even if you think it's inappropriate, I am saying he deserves a taste of the inappropriate, for what he did.  And if the specially abled are upset that I accused him of being like them, then I apologized to the specially abled...all of them except him, that is.

Quote from: ggroy;626098That goes to show how ineffective of a barrier the G+ firewall really is.

The firewall isn't about keeping Maliszewski's comments private. It's about firewalling comments that Maliszewski doesn't want to hear.

i think we can agree that i run with scissors, settembrini, and mistwell are all crazy assholes.

Time to break out the heavy artillery?

Where IS the money, though?

Melan, that was a post most fowl.

Quote from: Settembrini;626256Where IS the money, though?

Grogtardia has the money. And most likely, he's gonna keep the money because most likely, he's already spent the money.

But you know all this. What do you think you are getting by asking it repeatedly?

Malizewski has my sympathy and my prayers. I've lost my dad as a kid and I deal with very sick people and their families daily, and while I should not be surprised at the general lack of empathy from the Internet crowd (even if you think the guy is a douche, he's probably going through the sort of thing you wouldn't wish on your worst enemy), I am.

With regards to Dwimmermount, yeah, even with a very sick dad I figure he could at least have taken 5 minutes to send an abridged version of his latest message ("Dad very sick, will disappear for 3 months") to the Autarch crew, who have been doing unpaid PR & project management in his absence with their own reputation at stake.

I'm willing cut to him some slack, but then again, worse case scenario is I lose $10. I might not be as lenient if I was in for substantially more. At this juncture, as an Autarch fanboy, I'm happy if one of my favorite companies emerges unscathed.

Really? 'Specially Abled' is the term of choice now? If I were 'Specially Abled' I'd feel 'Specially Happy' about such doublespeak... that would include shouting and expletives.

Oh, and that goose picture would make me spill my milk... if I had milk to spill.

Ding. Winner winner chicken dinner. Is it any wonder why more and more of the OSR crowd is moving to G+ so they can protect themselves from the masses. It is easier to live in a fantasy world when you put up a wall to keep reality out of it.

I am not crazy. A asshole, but not crazy.

If you admit to it, why do you get so upset over stuff like this:

Quote from: I run with scissors;626265Those who dare question the believability of the situation are the assholes

Can't really have it both ways.  

I think you're more upset because people are disagreeing with you, and that people aren't uniformly getting torches and pitchforks in a lockstep hategasm.

But you know all this. What do you think you are getting by asking it repeatedly?

Because the implications are pretty different, depending on where the money is. The results range from "someone is late with work" to "fraudulent behaviour".

And my hunch is that people who still defend the disaster have not thought through all the implications of nobody knowing where the money is.

So my point is to make everybody think where the money is and what that means.
