Serving up your own ball, that was just meanness and empty-threadedness for its own sake, which I though was basically the main complaint.

lumberjim. Case in point, regarding how long it takes to get to know someone. At first people kept saying "where's LJ?" or "we need LJ" or "LJ is so funny" or "we love you LJ" and I was thinking I didn't know what was so great about him. After a while, though, he gets really funny, like now. I could have judged him right off the bat, but instead I took the time to get a grasp of his technique, and now I see he is really rather insightful, and funny.

Lucky for you, Steve, it seems "drunken posting" is, in fact, allowed here.

If censorship means that I don't have to waste my time reading mindless pejorative drivel, great. Vive la censorship. I've used a lot of naughty words, written unpopular opinions and even levelled a few insults and unkind words at Cellarites in my time here, yet *never* have I been censored.

Who the hell is jochser to come in and give unsolicited censorship lessons? I don't need them. People who use online services make one critical error - they almost always assume that they can say and do anything they wish, but they can't...unless they own the service. Therefore, UT *can* say and do anything he wants. *I* cannot, and I accept this as a term of service here. If Jochser wants to conduct an Internet Freedom of PooPoo Speech course, let him/her/it damn well buy his/her/its own server and bandwidth, and go for it. Otherwise...piss off.

So is stoned posting, so is high on (insert drug of your choice) posting. So is sober posting.

Sorry to be a party-pooper, but this thread is getting a little chatty. Please stop having fun.

We're sorry...would it help if I threw in two or three paragraphs of profanity worthy of a Marine Drill Sargeant, or perhaps posted a picture or two of Goatse Man?

Heh! My give a damn's busted. Besides, I don't have any beer. Will vodka do? *Hands Patrick a tall citrus vodka and tonic*

Remind me to tell you my Colorado joke, sometime. Say, you're not from Texas or Cali, are you? :p

Oh, you're just mad because we stopped talking about you. Here, have a vodka and tonic, and I'll turn up the country-western jukebox just for you.
