Since I moved to this new platform, there have been over 300,000 comments on this website. I say that as a point of reference, so that you can fully appreciate what I am about to tell you.

The last several hundred comments on this thread, which I have now deleted (something I have never done before), were some of the stupidest shit I have ever seen on the internet, let alone this website. And this is a website that has included discussions of me falling while naked in the shower after having mopped myself into a corner, endless discussions of Hola Fruta and other frozen treats, and even threads about what gives Laura W. indigestion. Think about that.

Some of you need some quiet time with some warm milk and a binky. Some of you need a slight understanding of history and a complete tutorial on what exactly constitutes nonviolent protest. Others of you need professional help and probably lithium. This thread is now dead, you are not invited to continue this idiotic discussion in any other thread, I am locking the comments to this particular post, and I will leave you with this quote from Billy Madison:

“Mr. Madison, what you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.”
