Typical Languish behavior there- get on high horse about bigotry, then take cheap shot at the South.

I thought it was well done, myself.

I do find it a bit tedious that, from some people, every time I disagree with them, I get the whole "oh we shouldn't have let him back in after all". Especially as most of these people actually voted against me being unbanned anyway, so it's not like I somehow failed to live up to their expectations.

I voted to unban you, and now regret it.

And it has nothing to do with disagreeing with me, but rather realizing what an unpleasant human being your online persona reflects.

I say your online persona, because in person you seem like a pretty great guy. I cannot even really reconcile the two. Online you are a champion of bigotry and intolerance that I would expect to find in Alabama living in a rundown shack with his common law wife.

You, on the other hand, have the nicest online persona ever.

Indeed, I realize that my online persona is pretty assholish at times, and I am ok with that, and I think people who know me personally have no great difficulty reconciling the two. My delivery changes online, but the content is the same, I think.

I certainly never heard you argue in person that really, beating up people who don't act the way society demands is fine, and in fact, NOT beating them up is the root of imagined "pussification" of society.

Mississippi or South Carolina would've been a cheaper shot, with AmScip and Ide taking shrapnel.

How is it at all about "my antics"?

Meant light-heartedly in the sense of "your activities" or "your posting."  My post was intended as a little double joke about the relative scarcity of internationally-compelling news stories coming out of Poland, as well as the tendency for you to end up an active participant in most of the high-level, self-referential drama on Languish, whether it originated with you or not.

And for the record, I agree that you were not engaged in any bad behavior.   At least at the outset: now that the thread has jumped from 2 to 7 pages in the blink of an eye, I'll have to see what antics have ensued and whether yours have displayed proper comportment or not...

I voted not to unban him, and actually regret that vote.  Marti's been okay so far.

You people. *shakes head*

Why was he banned in the first place. What offense did he commit.

He tried to talk Raz into offing himself.

That's an overinterpretation. I suggested it as an option I would personally enjoy. I wasn't very convincing though.

I didn't say you did a good job.

That's all, really? I see a more nefarious agenda from the Languish hoity toities if that's the case.

Yi put it a bit more tame than it was.
