I would imagine PYF would be one of the easier forums to moderate.

"Hey idiots, no one has posted a funny cat picture in two pages. Be better at posting funny cat pictures in this, the PYF funny cat pic thread."

Moderating done.

you have very clearly never read a PYF thread, it's almost impressive how such a banal forum can just create massive bubbling cauldrons of contempt that occasionally boil over into multi-page shitfights

Just the PYF funny pictures and meme threads. So apparently I have just gotten lucky.

Edit: what the hell, I feel like I have inadvertently been page sniping like crazy lately.

That reminds me of those real weirdos who think once a woman has had sex she's like a used condom or something.

My wife was taught this kind of poo poo. The analogy they used was tape. Each time it gets applied you lose some of what makes it special.

Its a really hosed up lesson.

Remember during the debates the one thing Hillary said she admired about Trump were his children.

I remember that being the only question in the debates Trump answered considerably better than Clinton. Clinton side stepped the question and made it about his kids, while Trump unequivocally complimented Hillary. I really didn't think he had it in him.

She admitted it.

That had to be tough. Sorry to hear about that.

Did she admit it angling for forgiveness? Or was it clearly the end of the relationship?

I just got an email from my boss giving me poo poo because she felt I didnt put the correct people in the To: and CC: lines in response to an email I sent like 10 people.


Bitch it was a general email to 10 people I just added them at random. Also I can’t remember ever paying attention to who was in which line on an email.

I sent her a response asking her if there was an outline for SOP so I didnt mess it up in the future.

Eh, I have to agree with your boss. This is the way I saw it put and it stuck with me:

quote:

Be discerning about your use of To: vs. Cc:. Why? Ever receive an email where it's unclear who has the action because everyone is in the "To:" field? We designate the To: field for who has the action (could be multiple people). Cc: is simply for their information—with no expectation that they will take action on the email, other than receive it.

Seems like a small thing, but really helps in long email chains with lots of people.

I grew up in my Dad's basement, and he kept the upstairs at like 64-65 year round. I'm just permanently used to the cold. I loved that part of Wisconsin, because there was always a slight chill and there was always an excuse to wear a hoodie.

While discussing this with a customer from Alabama, I mentioned I keep the temp set to 64 in the winter. I do that because I like the cold, but they think I do it because I'm cheap and made fun of me. :(

The next Star Wars should open with Poe getting hanged after a military tribunal finds him guilty of disobeying direct orders multiple times, getting a bunch of people killed, and leading a mutiny. Now THAT would subvert expectations. None of this "I like that mutineer's spunky, can do attitude" bullshit.

Edited for spoiler tags.
