Steady - mustn't rock the boat now.
If I was part of a rock group playing in China (which I am not and never will be); if I was brave enough, I would maybe utter the words "Free Tibet". Similarily if I was an Olympic athlete on the Podium (which I never was and never will be), I might be brave enough to signal a protest to the Chinese people about the behavior of their government. However its much easier to be complaisant.... [more]

After some of your recent comments, I can't blame you for wanting to get rid of the thread.

It's MetaFilter Survey Time!
Rats. What was it? Maybe there is a valid differential between people in different time zones. 100 is a very small number out of 60000 supposed members even if you slashed it by half 100 out of 30000 is but a mote. signed: disgruntled.

It's a great pity that metatalk never gets sidebarred.
This has been one of the more informative and interesting discussions that I've seen in the past 4 years.
It is a pity that about 70% or so of mefites will never see this and unfortunately includes many of these who need to see it most.

Metafilter: Get your own blog
"Get your own blog" was a very polite and sensible thing to say to that tosser in the other thread. I fear it maybe much politer than anything said to jbickers here. As for sense.....

Write your congressperson?
I think more Americans should visit Cuba; that way they will find out how very generous and pleasant most Cuban people are. They are highly literate, have a great health care system and a shitty government. The country that wishes to prohibit people visiting Cuba has a literate populace, a shitty health care system and a shitty government. If more USAians went to Cuba maybe they would realise that the bogey man is more a myth; though Americans are not known to deal well with fuel shortages,... [more]

really, your own blog is more useful for this.
58 comment thread 15 from poster including this little gem.
Does this fuckwit get a time out or what? I only saw the bit of vitriol directed at myself after the thread was closed. I also missed the poetry but if its anything like the rest of the drivel I probably didn't miss much.

Back-Taggers, Back to Work!
I am a slacker ..... but then its been summer and the beach, and evening walks along the waterfront and in the gothic part of town, and al fresco eating; barbeques on the terrace, and siestas in the hammock....I am a slacker.

A hiatus isn't a moratorium, but it'd be nice.
We have a lot of savvy technical folk here. It would be really nice if someone could write a script that makes a hand leap out from the screen and grab the poster by the throat whilest a Sergeant - Major type screams "Listen up fuckwit...is this all about you still? Do we need any more crap round here from shrill little whiners like you." and then slaps the idiot round the ears a couple of times. I think this would probably work really well.
