Angelslayed: WTF is going on?@! pardon miasma: I DON'T KNOOOOOW -Luger Angelslayed: MY ACCOUNT IS LOCKED

Now what the hell does any of that besides "post whore" have to do with banning someone? 'sides, hasn't it been confirmed he's not Choken? Anglesault was fuckin' obvious, I don't know what took so long. I was pretty sure it was. My bad! Sorry, Hawk 34!

Just when I was starting to warm up to the guy! what's going ooooooooooooon

I have no problems with that moron being removed. Was on the iggy list. But, EHME remains. Blah. Anglesault gone too? I didn't notice him doing anything bad lately... He should be banned, if only because he keeps making inaccurate accusations and attaching things to people, that aren't true at all. Good observation on who deserves a ban, Ohio resident/NASCAR fan/high school star/post whore

So, um, who did these bans?

Even with Encarnacion and So Taguchi in the corners?

Camper Van Beethoven - Key Lime Pie Lou Reed - Transformer Lou Reed - Berlin U2 - War David Bowie - Low Faust - So Far

More to do with I was bored and can't leave because of my god damn meds. I want to be here less and less.

2Gold, you're getting waaaaay too into these nonexistent subphyla here. Just quit while you're ahead on this one.

The hell has Rrrsssshhhh done to anybody? Adminbot is on the fritz! He's gone Maverick! Call the Reploid Hunters!

Because we cherry-pick which PBPs have to get out and stay out. Love your ball team? Get the fuck out. Flood the board dozens of times and come back only to talk about how you're too cool for the board? Open arms, baby!

Table that. We as the Anglosphere have considerably bigger fish to fry.

Oh God, it's the same fucking thing. If you're bothering to split hairs over it, you're a nerd, geek, AND dork.

Jingus is the one poster here I'm afraid of, or rather, afraid of becoming. When I become some fat creepy mope living in his parents' basement who has squandered all his limitless intellectual potential and regressed to just some Robitussin-swilling lowlife on the fringe of society, that's it for me, I'm outta here. Judging by the fact that I have an unadulterated post count in the 17,000s, I'm already traveling down that road. If I don't right this ship, I'm hopeless. What a fucking mess.

This thread is not complete until we submit our Upright Man PMs

Whoa, it's that Sarcaustic guy! He's been gone for like three years.

Whenever some of these immigration reform bills are discussed on talk radio (which I had to hear over break...ugh), my fellow right-of-center guys are like "okay...hey...but wait a minute.........THIS AMOUNTS TO AMNESTY!!" with no lack of righteous indignation. 1) Why don't I have any righteous indignation? 2) Do they even, really?

So I love Key Lime Pie, in which direction should I go next w/r/t Camper Van Beethoven albums?

Oh yeah, classic cliche right there. Brings back memories of when I cleaned my PM box! #: Soup

That fucking sucked. Don't post.

God, I've squandered all my potential in life. I think at this point my responsibility to myself is to cut my losses before it's too late. What about English classes? Don't you think it's important in life to know how to communicate well? I think at this point we're overcompensating in our reaction to the problem at hand, and now we're acting as if sit-ups are more important than anything in North American school curricula. P.E. is a necessary respite from the traditional academic subjects over the course of a seven-hour school day, which leave us sedentary and stressed. It needs to be there, but my God, people, it's not more important than American literature or European history unless you have no aspirations whatsoever to amass knowledge in life.

I'm not sure if you're arguing against gerrymandering or this silly "I only want to vote for someone just like me" mentality we seem to have in this country. I'm sure it's a little of both. The latter was a big part of Carol Moseley-Braun winning a Senate seat in IL: "I think we should have a black woman in the Senate."

You joined the Marines, not known for cuisine. What we're talking about here--or were before all the tangents--are underprivileged children of low-income families who rely on their public schools for some modicum of nutrition that they cannot get at home, and instead of providing what growing kids need, they're getting greasy pizza slices and fries. There's a reason why people are upset here.

It just hit the scene right after I memorized it all! Velvet partition, December '92. Ah, the fall of the Communist bloc. Those were fun times for geography!

lols u said music is key!!!! Just a quick note (I did it again!): in our fervent and correct defense of physical education in our schools, we're saying "I MEAN GEEZ KNOWING HISTORY AIN'T SHIT CUZ U GONNA DIE, FATTY." There's still something to be said for the pursuit of knowledge, which is being ignored almost as much in public schools as everything else. Nobody is learning for learning's sake, and few teachers that I've had have even tried to foster that. It's just assessment, assessment, test, exam, quiz, ace it, lose it, next chapter, repeat. There's no retention there. It's bad enough with the IBs and APs and ACTs and SATs and XYZs and SOLs and on and on and on, now throw in the NCLBs, and education has been completely reduced to bubble sheets, it seems. If I have kids, I don't care how maladjusted they end up (they're half me, so they're already fucked), I'm keeping them out of public school as long as I can. Just hand them some World Books, atlases, and let them go nuts. That's how I learned the countries, their capitals, and languages of Europe at age 6.
