I'm guessing they've got an automated script to poo poo them out. Why people repost them though... Beats me.

Spalec posted:Has anyone ever used the phrase 'Wake up' and not been spouting utter nonsensical paranoid conspiracy rantings? It seems to be overtaking 'I'm not racist/sexist/homophobic but....' as the catchphrase for idiots. All of my crazy friends end all their posts with ellipses, like I guess you're supposed to draw the same crazy conclusion they do. So it's a lot of "Well I know that whenever I observe chemtrails I feel a lot worse like an hour later, so..." Can anyone else corroborate that paranoia and conspiracy lead to rampant ellipses?

I think this is one of those cases where the possibility that she was joking is actually worse than if she were serious.

My mom does not behave herself at two in the morning  Walter Melon is my sister, Marion Gaze is my mom, the rest are my sister's friends who mom mostly doesn't know.      Best part is, the majority of this went down while my sister was asleep so she had no idea what was taking place on her status. I just called the house to arrange a grocery trip and while talking to mom I heard my sister suddenly start confronting her in the background about "what's all that poo poo on my status?!" Mom: "but I clarified, I meant leotards - can I call you back?"

I want to risk my baby's health possibly for his/her whole life just so I can push it out of my vagina  Also can someone explain to me why some women freak out that THEY MUST DO NATURAL BIRTH NO MATTER WHAT ? Something more specific than "it's natural!"

As my first pregnancy was a c-section and my second was a natural I almost didn't make it on because the doctor on call couldn't be assed to contact my doctor to confirm my scheduled c-section, I had plenty of women tell me that it was so great/beautiful that I had a natural birth instead of a c-section to the point I was starting to feel okay about assault charges since I was ready to punch out whoever said it next.

I got a lot of "likes" on Facebook by posting about a job interview, and I've noticed that good news brings people out of the woodwork. So as a joke, I posted an obviously made up post about a Canadian girlfriend. Named Winnifred Margaret (Winnipeg) from Manitoba. 22 people liked it, and I am trying to figure out how many of them got the obvious joke. Are they playing along with my troll? Or did I succeed in trolling when I didn't even want to?

RyuujinBlueZ posted:I hope you die cold, bitter and alone. To me it was such an obvious joke that I thought it would be immediately obvious that I was making a joke. Having a Canadian girlfriend is on the level of "walking uphills to school in the snow, both ways" or "it fell off the back of a truck". But maybe I have become too accustomed to deception and sarcasm?

People who don't spend a lot of time writing or reading lots and lots of paragraph-format text will do that. It always reminds me of Gravity's Rainbow, a not exactly level-headed piece of writing. And it goes the other way too, people who are really bookish sometimes talk in a stilted way.

Plane tickets are a regular expense and the subject of who's going to emigrate is under discussion. Plenty of people meet and date long-distance over the internet these days. It's not really implausible, and you sounded sincere. I'd guess your friends trusted your sincerity and are actually happy for you.

I know a dude at work, who pretty much only posts "I'm not a republican, but..." followed by crazy far right wing talking point. Today, apropos of nothing:  He's a pretty chill dude that I get along with aside from his wacky political views, and he doesn't really bring them up at work at all.

That's a hell of a thing for someone to get self-righteous over--especially while you're in labor, which I think adds a certain extra layer of tactlessness to the entire proceedings. Without a c-section and some very perceptive nurses and doctors, there's no way I'd have left the hospital except in a very small box. (Evidently I'd engaged in some pre-natal slapstick, and got the umbilical cord wrapped around my neck.) So the entire more-natural-than-thou mindset, particularly when applied to childbirth, leaves me baffled and annoyed.

Birthing and feeding debates get rabid, possibly because it's such a personal and fairly intimate subject. The sort of person who has trouble comprehending that what's best for them might not be best for others can get entrenched pretty firmly.

My mom's insane Yngwie-listening wannabe cougar friend is back. Crying because he guessed one year older. If some crazy middle-aged lady was hitting on me and had already left the tip I would've guessed twenty years higher.

US hospitals do have a tendency to push women into having unnecessary c-sections, which is a well-known issue to campaigners for bodily autonomy, but that's no reason to judge anyone for having one and doesn't mean it's not often the best choice. It's a sticky subject where things can easily get out of hand and people quickly end up talking past each other

He's probably a Tea Party type who considers himself "Independent" because his beliefs are actually further right than the official Republican platform. It's not an uncommon phenomenon.
