DUmmie FUnnies Thread Pulled Despite FOLLOWING The Rules
Self | November 12, 2014 | PJ-Comix

Posted on 11/12/2014 10:51:51 AM PST by PJ-Comix

I've been posting DUFU threads for years and am not one to bellyache ever. On election night I had a thread pulled because I used only one asterisk instead of three on quoted F words even though that was the practice before. I didn't complain. I accepted that due to the proliferation of the F words QUOTED in that thread, maybe it was a bit too much and promised to use three asterisks in the future.

So today I posted what I thought was a really fascinating DUFU reaction to the Jonathan Gruber video and it had a grand total of ONE F word which I made sure to use THREE asterisks. So what happened? The entire thread got pulled. WHY? I have absolutely no idea but if someone knows please let me know.

Anyway that DUFU edition can be found at the DUmmie FUnnes at: DUmmies Discombobulated by Jonathan Gruber Video

It’s because you didn’t use four!

It means “We’re in the middle of a fundraiser and our admin-mod lips have death-grip suction on the heinie of political correctness”.

I've found you can generally get away with "effin" with no loss of clarity.

dollar signs also make good replacements for "a$$hat".

"White Cracker" is ok though Charlie Rangle says so

If you just post a link, you’ll get lots of help bumping the thread.

This was a very important and telling DUFU.

We have learned a lot. The fact is that nobody likes ObamaCare, not the left not the right, not the middle class, nobody. The insurance companies got their payoff, at least in the short term.

As far as I can see the “moderate” Republicans are the only people who actually think ObamaCare shouldn’t be abolished.

I used THREE asterisks following an F which is exactly what I was requested to do. Before I used one asterisk only which was used for years but I was told to use THREE which is exactly what I did.

(I think it’s time we)
Stop, children, what’s that sound?
Everybody look - what’s goin’ down?

There’s battle lines bein’ drawn
Nobody’s right if everybody’s wrong
Young people speakin’ their minds
Gettin’ so much resistance from behind

(It’s time we)
Stop, hey, what’s that sound?
Everybody look - what’s goin’ down?
