2006 ELECTION. PEW

[Thorngrub]

I made sense out of every last bit of it (no apology necessary;)

I don't think Bozo should be banned, I just think he should Shut the fuck up.

[Mary]

FWIW, whether PEW gets banned or not makes no difference to me in the long run; so many cool people here I enjoy talking to. That said, this overzealous reaction to him seems a bit out of whack, and I can't fathom any real reason to ban him. He posts a lot of stupid shit and he's pro-life? He tried to prove the soul exists and failed? Are these really reasons to throw someone out of this community?

Sometimes his threads are amusing. On rare occasion they're even interesting - I rather enjoyed chatting about post-punk. Sometimes they're just irritating - so don't read the irritating ones. Problem solved! The dude rarely posts on boards he hasn't started himself anyway, so he's exceptionally easy to avoid if he's so insufferable.

Cheers,
M

Apparantly I hit a nerve when I revealed that I steal toilet paper from corporate johns. It seems a few people here have had some unpleasant experiences in that area...

Yes, sometimes the threads are amusing, but still... everyone gets involved in a conversation and it heads into a trudge through bullshit. I mean, really...

And we all know he isn't serious about anything, and he's baiting people, so what's the point of talking to someone who's sole reason for discussion is to get people riled up?

[Matheus]

Kinda like the whole Ann Coulter deal...

I tend to agree with Mary. I don't find PEW nearly as annoying as I do the crusade-like campaign / indignation that seems to arise anytime someone like this annoys a few people.

[luke]

I'm pretty sure pew is just Riley in disguise trying to distract us from the real issue at hand, which is the fucking Awards Show.

Do these kinds of crusade-like campaigns happen often here?

[Galactus]

We need the awards show to come back or there might a be crusade-like campaign to have riley spanked like a naughty naughty boy.

[Galactus]

Obviously by spanked I meant banned or at least a good talking to.

Exactly. Just tell him to shut the fuck up and be done with it.
