The bad, upsetting pig story should have ended with everyone getting fired and then getting jobs at Hormel, as that would be like a punchline.

I'm looking into it unless people want to dig through his posts for me and convince me he probably wasn't being ironic I think the point being made here is that wether it's real or not, (who knows), and wether you agree with what happened or not, (I know I don't condone inhumanely slaughtering a pig), you probably shouldn't be banning or really even probating people based on it. People say a lot of hosed up things on the forums, and some of it is distasteful and offensive, but banning someone for contributing to a thread in a relevant (albeit disturbing) way is counterproductive to the community. Of course this doesn't stand for obvious things like racism, pedophilia, blahblahblah, but as far as being something subjective as an event happening that you don't like, it's a slippery slope. I think modding on GBS is probably one of the most challenging positions on the site because it's really hard to figure out where to draw the line, so it's good to read that you're looking into his posts and not pulling the trigger without some thought.

I wouldn't like to see that either. Especially if it's an entire thread glorifying animal cruelty, and like I said, modding GBS has to be one of the most challenging positions on the site because a lot of the time you'd have to make a call that isn't always based on your morality meter. I certainly couldn't do it. As a side note, I find it interesting that there was a thread here a few months ago talking about what pieces of poo poo Pitbulls are and how they should die, and nobody did a thing about that. I rescue dogs and own two of my own Pits, and that had my blood boiling to the point where I almost asked Rich to gas the thread. But, I didn't. Because again, just because I don't like it, or agree with it doesn't make it Gas Chamber-worthy.

I certainly couldn't do it. To be fair, you should gas a thread like that. The pitbull stuff is just to rile people up. It serves no other purpose, and going after pets is an infinite well of outrage. Rich made a thread last year for all those infinite outrages, where people could have their circular arguments indefinitely and sane people would just stay away. Ralp gassed it.

Once the police brought a guy into the ER who was strung out on Angel Dust. He managed to break free and escape. However, he did not get too far. He managed to fall and knock himself unconscious in the construction zone next to the hospital. That would not have been that big a deal, except for the fact that he landed face-down in a two-inch deep puddle and managed to drown. When they found him (Which took a surprising amount of time), They asked me to come out and help schlep the body back into the hospital. They did this, mainly because I happened to be in the ER to get blood samples from another drugged-out individual and they needed another reasonably strong person to carry the dead guy.

oh man! remembered another one. I was doing in the annual Fire Alarm inspection in a building I've dubbed "Little Manila". It was a 100+ year old apartment building, the sort with a big central staircase to access every floor and with big wooden stairs along the outside. It had definitely seen better days. The last revamp must have been in the late 60s judging by the carpet, and it had since not been touched. It was a slum that housed almost exclusively fresh-off-the-boat Filipino immigrants...and one white guy in the basement in the grossest suite of all. I actually met the guy that lived in the suite on a different job, he was a night security guard at a high rise, and although he was completely goony (overweight, into Star Trek, Dr. Who and Dark Souls) we got along great. I can't remember if I caught him leaving for work or if there was a picture on the wall that tipped me off, but it was definitely like that moment in the Simpsons where you find out where Lenny lives. The place was a disaster. Empty pizza boxes, rat turds, a pervading damp and stank and crammed everywhere was goon memorabilia. Anyway, this place ticked off every single fire hazard box in the book. The basement electrical room was packed full of mattresses preventing access to the breakers, the hallways were packed with stuff. Fake palm trees, chests of drawers, household items. The people living in the suites used the hallways as living space on the regular. The doors in the corridors leading to the fire escape were blocked with toilets from the outside, which would have been fine since every unit had a secondary exit through the kitchen. The year prior we had written up a Filipino for placing his fridge in front of that door...but this year everyone decided to do it. To be fair, it did open up a lot of room in their kitchen... Of course, there were all sorts of issues with the fire system. It was disabled when we got there, and it turned out the front door was worked so loose that it slammed into the nearest pull station and set the fire bells off every time someone walked in. The sensors were all ancient, and my coworker decided to write one up even though it worked. The tile it was mounted on was visibly sagging under the weight of mouse turds, and I told him not to touch it but he did and got showered with a torrent of tiny turds. The building would have been the perfect firestorm. A fire system that's out of commission so the fire separation doors didn't work, the building reduced to a single egress that would then double as a chimney and so much clutter that the firemen wouldn't be able to get in anyway.

Anyway this time he'd gotten into his head to start loving with the birds, like he's chasing the pigeons down and occasionally actually manages to catch them and toss them on the walls, feathers flying in dusty poofs (not that he manages to actually hit the walls, birds can fly, remember? No? Well they can. Ya really.) Well suddenly he throws a tantrum (on top of his already ongoing tantrum I swear to God like a proper 4yo) and loads this one big fat black mean old duck looking bastard into a loving slingshot and cries havoc and launches it full tilt into one of the hovels, a real tall one that actually turns out to be a sty. I have no idea how they managed to get a hog five stories up the ladders of this hovel (or why they painted it green) but I guess the duck reminded it that it wasn't loving possible after all, so now it just collapses on itself like an accordion that was never built with any load bearing structures to begin with, and just comes crashing down destroying itself in this deafening rumble, and the pig just drops down in the middle of it and just explodes into a puff of gray smoke. And everyone cheered.

Used to work in a cemetery, occasionally unburied people. Some dude was buried between his wife and mistress, his kids found out and wanted their parents exhumed + cremated. This is decades after the fact. After hauling up the bronze vaults in the middle of summer, we took a lunch break. Afterwards, I held the casket open while a decades-old corpse was transferred into the tray or w/e it's called that goes into the crematory. Mostly solid. Fingernails came off when the mortician took off the rings. Smell was bad. One of my coworkers threw up. Turns out the kids didn't even have power of attorney! A local funeral home had Drama (owner was a cokehead, son of previous owner), they tried to bury a child in a styrofoam cooler. Dude got in trouble when he kept a body in a unrefrigerated closet for like 2 weeks.
