Today's DU service message from an irritated uppityperson
You don't have to read every topic on DU.

If you think a topic is stupid, you don't have to post to say so or to complain how reading said "stupid topic" is a waste of time. If you do post to say "why did you post this it is stupid", realize that you are kicking a topic you think is stupid. The OP may appreciate the kick, but you are wasting more of your precious time posting the complaint and we really don't need that.

End of today's DU service message from an uppity uppityperson. And yes, I know it's redundant.

60. Ah, the flavors of Neopolitan!
And all that from the insane picture of a crucified Christ strapped in an undignified way to a trailer hitch (and I challenge anyone to find a dignified way to do that - other than the obvious of not doing it!)

13. I Think This Topic Is Stupid
I think this topic is stupid.

Wait. I don't want to say that this topic is stupid.

My time is too precious to say that this topic is stupid.

Perhaps this topic isn't stupid after all.

Please do not post a reply to this post saying that this post is stupid.

I'm replying to your post.

I'm doing so because I think I am stupid.

But my post is NOT stupid.

I need to go call my good friend, Stuart Pid.

His good friends call him Stu.

He's pretty smart.

29. Do You Also Know His Friend, Morris?
Stuart Pid has a good friend, who by the way is also a good friend of mine.

His name is Morris Ronald (no one knows his last name).

His good friends call him Moe Ron.

36. NO! NO!
You have Morris Ronald confused with another good friend, Morgan Anne (no one knows her last name, either....I understand she keeps changing it).

Her good friends call her Mor Anne.

She likes to make people think that she is a he.

She pisses me off, too.

44. I Think I Have Them Both On Ignore
I think I have both Mo Ron and Mor Anne on ignore.

I really don't know, though.

I'm too stupid to know how to check.

I'll go ask my friend, Dumbarton Ass.

His good friends call him Dumb.

53. That's ok, I am tolerant. But I started noticing that I was doing it myself, ie
dismissing people's posts before reading after looking at the number of posts. This was a sign that the origin of stupidity and evil is inside of me, not outside.

54. Thing is, humans are very trainable
Give us enough low post count trolls and we will make the association and after we make the association, we will cement it into place. We like stability too.

I try hard to notice the low post count folks who say amazing things so that I can balance it. I do have to admit that I'm always surprised when I hear something blatantly sexisr, racist, homophobic or just plain freeperish from a 1000+ post count. I guess I just wonder how they slipped through.

58. Just hit "alert"
That's what I do when people post in GD about their health problems, marriage problems, local weather reports, reports on their pets, announcements of hitting a post-count milestone and all the other crap that doesn't belong on a political discussion board.
