What happened to america1-3?
Aw, how will he found about about the llama farms to go to with his daughter this weekend? That one seems more time-sensitive. Guess he should have asked that one on his real account.

This depresses me. Somehow I thought things would turn out otherwise.

25: The Train Episode
This was the first MeFi podcast I've heard, and I liked it. jessamyn writes like she talks. Is cortex ever a participant? Or pb?

How do you find the Social Explorer? I just found it by searching MetaTalk for "Social Explorer" where it was mentioned in an old post. How would you navigate to it from this page, though?

Ah, thanks pb. I thought it was something like that.

Who are the other occasional moderators, besides pb?
TPS, YouTube has had comment thumbs up/down for a while now. Months! I know because I fight the losing battle of thumbs-downing anything offensive.

Half past twelve
And I'm reading the blue in my flat all alone
How I hate to spend the evening on my own
Autumn winds
Blowing outside my window as I look around the room
And it makes me so depressed to see the gloom
There's no cortex out there
No jessamyn to hear my prayer
Gimme gimme gimme a mod after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase the trolls away
Gimme... [more]

Look, Ma, I'm full of piss and vinegar
Nothing against the poster, but maybe the thread would have been better with more than a link to a comingsoon.net article. When there is no context, people just post on what they know, some of which was wrong -- e.g. Heston always being against gun control (he wasn't) and only being a b-movie actor (he wasn't). Obit threads on controversial figures are always going to have mixed responses, but there is a definite tone set when the post is bare-bones like this one was.

Dammit. I should have checked MetaFilter before playing my Scrabulous turns. There were colors?

Dave Faris isn't as crotchety as Bruce. What happened to Bruce, anyway? He hasn't posted in a long time.

Should we FPP the Obama speech?
Unfortunately, while some people may think this thread is the best, there's also some ugly things in here. I must've missed the previous comment you were referring to in your "apology" klang, but if what you're saying is what I think you're saying, wooooooowwww...just wow. And I know you tried to apologize for it, but repeating the very offensive insult in your apology kind of defeats the purpose. I can see why the mods want to leave the apology and such, but,...

Exposure to that set of ideas would also cover the left-field references to masks and roles.

Is Yahoo Answers Vicious or What?

'I am not a Microsoft "fanboy"'...
The only thing that sets off alarm bells is that he favorited his own question.
What's wrong with this? Is it like posting on your own wall on Facebook?

He should have known he would get responces like this from wacked-out liberals.
Oh, the shame...totally fooled by orthogonality's posts. A flicker of suspicion, sure, after seeing how long each between the ad loading and the flaggery, but then I thought, "It's orthogonality, this guy has posted a lot of really good stuff. It must be true."

hototogisu, only one of the comments he's made has not been on a post of his own. So actually, no answers, one comment to the blue.

Fallout from the Givewell affair
Is this thread finally winding down? I remember when it was just two screens long.
If anyone had the time to chart the evolution of this thread, it would be interesting to see. Something like this:
1. Callout
2. Banning
3. Apology
4.-39. ???
40. Quiet flameout and account deletion
41. Group hug

I don't see Metafilter looking bad in this. A self-linker was called out, there was some hubbub, all farily civilized, and deftly handled by cortex and jessamyn, if not Matt himself.

So was AngryVICTIM carefully plotting this bizarre FPP, biding his time until he could vomit forth that tirade, making normal comments all the while? Huh?
