I don't see anything wrong with it except maybe the mod thought you could have just written it. I don't know tbh.

I thought we were talking about images? You mean a picture of a quote or a cartoon of a quote, right?

For example?

There's no way to do that with the forum software. Though somewhere in this discussion Sophisticat provided a Chrome plugin that works as far as I kno...

All for that too. (Y)

Try some bitter sarcasm. That always works. :)

@"Michael" *Urgent Agu lol bot call!* :D

Personally, I was too lazy to get off the couch but it beats football that's for sure.

Aw, ok then. *Pats Agu on head*. :)

Actually, what I said was Hillary deserved to lose and I never supported her. But yes, you were right in your prediction and I was wrong. Well done!

Sure, why not? I seem to remember you running a few victory laps when Trump became President. I didn't piss on your parade. ;)

Yes, and it was fair criticism. I'm steering clear of those discussions now (the one the quote is from is a more recent one btw). I find it difficult ...

Lol.

Apologies for the distraction, folks. Now back to the party. :D https://youtu.be/oOt_dduY8_g

By the way no, he didn't do that at all. And it's shameful to pretend that he did. What he did was criticize the comparison between the Nazi state and...

I want as much diversity here as possible too. I also welcome feedback and complaints. But not hypocrisy. That's all really. Thorongil will continue t...

Exactly how we felt about your comments in the gun discussion although we didn't go as far as to post childish gifs in response, and some of us, inclu...

It wasn't just the gun discussion. Here's an example of a comment by a mod in another discussion which you labelled as "a case in point" of the bitter...

Sure, and nothing in the sarcastic posts directed at you was bitter then. Your definition of "bitter" is when a mod does it. And it's not the first ti...

No, you're a classic hypocrite who cries about poor treatment and then does exactly what he complains about. And what's worse then makes up ridiculous...

When a mod is sarcastic towards you, you whine, call it bitter and use every opportunity to seek pity for your "ill-treatment" then you go around deli...

Would it be too much to ask that you heed your own comment? Or at least stop being a hypocrite. Cheers. (Y)

*Rubs hands gleefully* (No, no idea but...*rubs hands gleefully again*).

Or ban him and replace him with a bot. (Y) Can you make it happen Q? :B

Lol.

They didn't create it in a vacuum and at some point if they're given too much everything will collapse anyway (the economy needs people wealthy enough...

:D

Good on ya, Oz. /uploads/resized/files/kh/cqwmzdcyddy7w5yf.png http://www.bbc.com/news/world-australia-41992344

Yes, I did say that and I did qualify afterwards what I meant too.

Yes, I would, there's a certain alchemy of perspective involved. How easy it is to fall in to the trap of impotent moral outrage. Yep. Yes, even criti...

Just to prove you wrong, I'm going to leave all these dumb non-introductory comments here. Enjoy wallowing in the mud you bastards. Edit: Hello, I'm B...

(Anyway I need to call it a night. I'll pick it up again tomorrow.)

You have a habit of reading into comments and OPs whatever it is you happen to want to talk about. That may be convenient for you but it's not going t...

You say "arguably" but so far you've only asserted. Give us something more to chew on.

I wouldn't disagree. But it's a case then of viewing that in context too. Is the conflict one that really threatens or ultimately reinforces social st...

I don't like all this talk about authenticity vs faux authenticity any more than Street really because it's itself corrupted by a kind of romanticized...

(Incidentally my vpn isn't working so I couldn't watch all the vid but I saw the first few minutes and got the general idea I think.)

From the above, the question of the OP is something like: "How do we most successfully approach a critical analysis of social problems?" and the thesi...

I'm just going to delete non-introductions from now on, folks. Too many Shout box type discussions around already.

Well, in anticipation of Agu's reply I was going to talk about the deeper issue of being unable to escape a hall of mirrors but at least knowing you'r...

(Y)

Don't you think a sensible first step in sociological critique would be to examine the lens through which you yourself view social relations instead o...

It's bizarre the way you keep repeating the same mistake as if you wanted to prove how necessary the discussion is. Thanks. I think.

Well, we don't hate you and wish you well in your quest for spiritual enlightenment. You no longer posting Star Trek gifs everywhere is a good first s...

(Y)

Astrology...

Ok, Leo. Well I would have said that but it sounded too complimentary. Now tell us how it works. Even if you don't believe a word you're saying. (Y)

As long as it's not the same as me. That would mean we're virtually the same person. :-O

Duly noted.

Fair enough.
