I think it was deleted.� I can't find it anymore.�

Oliver Stone.� Sheesh.

It's in the general forums.
I don't think it was anywhere near the line yet , but apparently Erik is taking no chances these days.

Oh, THAT thread! You mean the one I willingly participated in? It wasn't too bad-yet...

We both participated in it. It's a dangerous discussion , and that makes us both dangerous people. We should feel awfull and go punish ourselves. Sing the "Barney song" 10 times. That should lower our IQ's by 20 points at least. Instant lobodomies!

Danger IS my middle name...

I thought it was Wenceslas.

history has taught us that it would have quickly degenerated to the point where certain long term trolls would start posting pictures of Chinese skulls again to prove how evil and wrong the Japanese were. That was a particularily tasteful thread that started off just as innocently.

Which makes it so DANGEROUS! WE CAN'T DISCUSS SUCH THINGS!
It will inevitably lead to offending people! Or learning something! That's the same thing!

Some people are offended by people disagreeing with them.

No they aren't.

Yes they are!

Hey! As a moron-American, I am offended that you would suggest *I* would like that GD farm game on facebook. I can't tell you how many freakin' times I get asked to participate just because I know something about chickens and turkeys!

There's just one answer to this....

Explains the high attrition among Major Mike's troops.

Speaking of chickens and spam, on one camping trip in my younger days, it was too windy for a campfire and I had to survive on cold chicken-based spam substitute. Whoever thought there would be a demand for such a product? I guess it was cheaper, but now I can't remember why I bought it unless it was part of the "suffer in the wilderness for a while to make normal life more acceptable" approach.

A SPAM substitute? For folks in Minnesota that would be heresy! HERESY!

It's called Treat tm.

If everyone would green button the trolls, such discussions could probably be done.

It certainly does no one any good to ignore the ugly things in history....apparently Erik has learned that lesson.

History as a whole tends to be pretty ugly. I propose to ignore people who get ugly about history.

I just ignore ugly people!

But not unfixable! You must work harder at it.

See! Follow the Martian! (but not too close, or he'll put a restraining order out on you).

Now, I'm hungry.

I get on here so infrequently, I must pad my count out with a bit of spam...

I need to add some spam as well. At one point a forum member suggested my comments were without merit because I lacked a sufficient number of stars.

Hey, more chicken-related themeology, more betta.

Well, you've come to the right place. Lots of "Legion of Merit" here, with precious little to say-excepting spam, of course (COUGH) Onime (COUGH). Ordinarily, I'd have divided up the previous two sentences into two separate posts, with this sentence serving as a third post. This last sentence would deserve its own post.

Before you know it, you can be a spam-bot like the rest of us Threadsters.

Yes? You rang?

Actually, I make it a point to refrain from saying anything of substance. Experience has shown me that this is a great place to shoot the breeze, but I'd rather not discuss touchy subjects.

In other words, I'm not a complete moron, I just play one on the internets.

I'm offended by the offense, offended by the education and offended that you asked me to clarify my perceived offense.

Can't say's I have. When in PA, scrapple was quite popular in and around the Amish country where I lived / worked. It's pretty darn close to spam-albeit with a little more cartilage thrown in. Mmmm....cartilage.....
