Why don't you just tattoo < 0 on my forehead?

:nuke:

[redqueen]

1. Or you could consider posting better OPs.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

2. lulz

[redqueen]

4. You must have seen the 'before' version.

:blush:

[whatchamacallit]

9. Well redqueen there's the rub

What if you're not capable of "better OPs"? What if you have something to say, but you lack grace and style? This will have a chilling effect on straight forward, heart felt, dialog.

[redqueen]

10. Chilling effect? The RW talking point against the Fairness Doctrine?

How pricelessly perfect!

:rofl:

[whatchamacallit]

12. Let me get this "perfect" bit straight

So... the term "chilling effect" is a de facto RW talking point and my using it is perfect because I'm so much like a right winger? Thanks for teaching me about good posts...

[redqueen]

14. No, I'll explain it for you.

You and a few others are soooooo upset because DU now has a more democratic feedback system.

Your choice of terms was hilarious, because it's used in the same way by wingers. I was not implying that *you* are like a winger... just that your argument is the same, and IMO the similarity of the situations is amusing.

Clearer now?

[whatchamacallit]

15. I'm clearer about you

unfortunately.

[whatchamacallit]

26. What does that mean? (n/t)

[Bicoastal]

16. What's so difficult about "grace and style?"

Just don't be an ass, that's all.

[whatchamacallit]

18. You seem to be having tremendous difficulty with them

:eyes:

[Bicoastal]

22. The Greatest Page doesn't seem to think so.

[whatchamacallit]

24. Well there it is

The superior crowing of elite. Pitiful...

[Bicoastal]

27. I'm no elite. I just don't go looking for fights online.

Which is what you're currently doing.

[whatchamacallit]

28. I made a post regarding how I felt about the new feature

YOU showed up in it swinging from the start.

[Bicoastal]

29. Yes, your wonderfully incisive, neutral post about how people who don't like your opinions...

...are one step away from carving characters into your skull.

Accompanied by a mushroom cloud.

How the hell do you THINK we're going to react? With a reasonable discussion about the pros and cons of your argument?

MAN, you're passive-aggressive.

[whatchamacallit]

31. Well we can't all be queens of the greatest page

You're right, why do I care. I'm feeling better about this unrec thing by the minute.

[Bicoastal]

32. Awesome. Glad we sorted this thing out.

[Teaser]

34. nah, Bicoastal is stylin.

[LanternWaste]

42. A salient point cannot be hidden by awkward language,,,

A salient, relevant and germain point cannot be hidden by awkward language or a lack of grace and style; only by awkward minds-- the same minds that would refuse to perceive the point regarldess of how badly or well-written was in the first place.

3. I have some India ink and a roofing nail.

Sit still, please.

[eleny]

5. You could make it your Avatar

Only a matter of time before someone does that.

[mamaleah]

6. Are ya kidding me?

"ZOMG WITH THE UNREC FEATURE, NOT EVERYONE WILL THINK WHAT I WRITE IS THE GREATEST THING EVER"

QQ much?

[Bicoastal]

7. Why don't you at least TRY posting something NOT about the rec/unrec system...

...and see what happens?

Although, quite frankly, your posts today have been so irritating that I'm not optimistic.

[gkhouston]

8. You've got to use the time you have. n/t

[johnaries]

11. Ok. Kick and Unr

[lukasahero]

33. If this post is respresentative of the quality of your usual posts

well, I'd say the unrec might be a worthy invention after all. :shrug:

[sfpcjock]

41. that's OK. I'll do it LOL

<0

Some freeper immediately unrec'd my sweet little Thursday evening story in the Lounge. I think it's a waste, and if I wrote any better I'd probably have Judy Miller's job at the NY Times now :)
