Good system lmao

Good system lmao Isn't that standard procedure though? They keep throwing tons of No Hope cases into the system hoping to either land a Chudge willing to rule in their favor or otherwise slip through enough cracks that they can create some sort of wiggle room in the future?

I recently discovered I have four friends requests from the same highschool acquaintence, two with profile pics, one misspelled. I knew she wasn't the brightest bulb but seeing someone fail to interface with a login screen is just off-putting, like they're less capable than a bot script

StealthArcher posted:We have goon based sites? Had more like. SA used to have file forums and when they closed them a few splinter sites opened that were private and required proof that you were a Goon, so you put a code in your Yahoo ID and it confirmed. Lots of us never changed it which is why you see "random" numbers in some old Goons profiles.

They also used to be used for identifying yourself to get into a goon gaming clan but discord bots have basically entirely replaced that.

I have zero clue whatsoever to post what happened to me today. I live in NE FL and it was a nice day so I took my kid to the beach after we'd left a birthday party. Some big gently caress off truck with some big gently caress off flags had set up camp there. One big US Flag and another big gently caress BIDEN flag. I knew what I was doing and getting myself into when I did it but did it anyway. I very politely asked these gentlemen if they thought that displaying a giant gently caress flag was really appropriate and pointed out that there were a lot of young kids there. Now me, personally, I don't really give a poo poo by and large but I still found it to be impolite and in poor taste. I told them that I can't loving stand Joe Biden myself and understood their frustration, etc. etc. but maybe we can dial it down maybe just a tad in a family setting. I pointed several 6 and 7 year old kids. Holy poo poo. I took the bait and they were waiting to reel me in but I'm lying if I say I didn't do it on purpose. One guy pushed up in my face and got chest to chest with me almost immediately. I can't fight for poo poo but wasn't scared and kept pointing to my son. "He's 11 years old. Is this the example we want to set for children?" "Oh, so you're threatening me now?" The dude started lecturing me about the music I let my son listen to and the movies I let him watch. I told him that I monitor those things pretty strictly, that's my business and also pointed out that I wasn't blasting any music. But they were just looking for a fight that I wasn't going to give them unless they pushed for it. My son knows the word "gently caress" and hears me say it all the time. These assholes deliberately flew those flags to invoke a response. And they got one. On my way out, I asked the beach monitor/toll booth person if we were allowed to fly "gently caress _________" flags on the beach. She advised me to call the sheriff, lol, and I passed. Gonna go out on a limb here and guess how that might have gone or, further, if I was flying a BLM flag or one that said "gently caress COPS". See how that goes. Wish I had captured it on video but I was legit worried about getting sucker punched and needed my hands available. These people were looking for and ready for a fight right away.

I mean, "Let's go Brandon" is rather pathetically coy so being transparent in their contempt is a step up. How would that chud even know what media you let your kid watch? I think you did pretty well, it's crucial to stay calm and not let them escalate things since it just makes it easier to justify any kind of violence they were looking to cause all along. But I also know that can be really hard because I know if it were me my adrenaline would be racing and it would be hard not to let my voice waver or get strained. But the calmer you are the stupider you make them look, and it can help keep you calm when they are acting so over the top it starts to look funny and you are trying not to laugh at their reaction.

We (and I assume your son) need you among the living! Like somebody flying a gently caress biden flag has gotta be desperate for attention and probably exactly the kind of bully who'd only pick up fight they can win, and then play victim to authorities. Now, subtract son and add kickass bod and/or fighting skills... well probably still not worth it, but I wouldn't try to talk you out of it.
