What Happened When The Mods Pulled My Post?

I just spent alot of time posting!

I see that, looks like you hit a small bump.

What happened?
Well, someone set up us the bomb?
I'm serious!
Oh, well.. looks like your post got pulled.

Augh! I spent alot of effort on that! How did it happen?!
Couldn't be because you were doing it wrong?

What the, how'd you get that video of m-- uh.. I don't even wear that!
Right Skippy. *cough* Well, since you asked, here's how posts get removed.
First, if it is against TOS it gets seen.

Then it gets marked.


Okay, I have that much.
Then the mods gather:

Pictured, mods gathering.

I don't think that's how it looks, I..
Look, do you want an answer or not?
...Yes?
Right, carrying on.
Then they back their vehicle up to your post.


Whoah! What the heck is that thing?!
It's a machine, that eats other machines.
With this:

I don't see what this has to do with my post vanishing, can you tell me wha-
Watch it question boy! I have a flamethrower!

You want to vanish like your dog did?

What the?! No, not Roozer too!
To be fair, your dog WAS drunk.
What?! Who would even... please don't point that flamethrower at me.
Right, and after they saw your post off the entire forum, they set it on fire.

Wait.. that man. His face, and fire! Oh GOD WHY?!
Oh, HIS post was all about his face, so the mods set it on fire.
After that, they used the ashes to open a gate between our world and theirs, like this:

BLECH! That's horrible!
And those tentacles! GAAAH!

If you think that's bad, you should see what happens when the mods get their hands on a bad thread.

Pictured: Mod hands

Oh look, here comes a mod now.
Looks like they want to ask you about that thread you just posted.

Gaaah! Tell them I'm indisposed!

Pictured: Moderator, dunno which one.

Tell them yourself, they're right behind you.


Wait, don't run away!
We haven't gotten to what happens when they edit your thread title!

This concludes our sordid fictional tale.
If you liked that, we have plenty more in the book "Oh the horrible things you'll summon!" rumored to be written by IamnotaMod

I finished “Anna Karenina” last night. “The End,” the reader announced ... with the author’s having totally failed to tie up all the loose ends. Danged Russian!

Man. I hate when that happens! LOL!

I’m trying to decide what I want for breakfast. Or should I say “brunch?” Maybe an orange and some cheese slices...

Last night, I didn’t sleep well again. It would be nice to have an unbroken night of sleep. I was going to try and go to church today, but I’m just too tired to make the effort of getting dressed. Sad stuff, that. :o|

It’s my medium pitched voice and the fact that I manifested on this plane, right?

That, and the tentacles do tend to muffle things.

24 when I got up, but it has gone up to 40 as it is a sunny day with a few scattered, puffy, white clouds.

Goodness! The movie was much better at tying up the plot threads than that! Dang Dostoyevsky!

Dean Koontz does a superb job of tying up loose ends in False Memory.

Other than that, its a very nasty piece of work, which I couldn’t stop listening to.

Did the movie say what happened to Vronsky in Serbia? Did Stepan Arkadievich die in debtor’s prison?

I’ll go back to history lectures in the kitchen for a while. The great thing about history is you know how it ends. So to speak. I mean, we won WW2 and all that.

LOL! Do we? I read a SF story some years back where we invented time travel in the early 40’s and sent a soldier ahead 50 years or so to find out out how it ended.

Ended up at the country home of a crusty recluse who didn’t want to be bothered.

What do you mean who won you idiot! Who do you think won!?!?

The soldier looks around sees the Japanese car, the Japanese stereo, the Japanese TV...

That’s amusing, but if he went ahead 70 years, he’d see Japan’s economy in freefall, existential threats from Red China, and the oldest population on earth.

Proving that even alternate history isn’t what it seems.

Phooey. Can we at least agree that the Egyptian pharoahs are dead?

Dean Koontz is an awesome author. I’ve read almost all of his books. False Memory was a superbly scary book.

Dean Koontz did “Lightning” which was a time travel book, and the first one of his works that I ever read. I didn’t put it down until I finished it. Most of his work affects me like that.

No. Sigh... I guess that we are left to assume that Vronsky died of a broken heart.

Also, I don’t recall any updates before the end about Arkadievich.

I guess the movie wasn’t all that much better after all. [wry smiles]

Since my junior year in high school, I have been a huge science fiction fan.

I have gotten rid of some paperbacks, given to charity.

But we still have over 1,000 hardback books in our library.

They’re not all science fiction, but SF is a large percentage of them.

LOL! S.F. My initials. Destiny!

LOL!

I don’t know how many books I have, but they range from sci-fi to history and everything in between.

I have eight crates of books in storage, and I want to get them out. While I was visiting with Tax-chick, I noticed she has DVDs in nylon cases, and I realized if I did that, I could free up at least another two book shelves! That still leaves me with VHS tapes that need to be converted to DVDs, but at the moment it is cost prohibitive.

Doing that conversion and putting them in more cases will free up another two shelves, and I can bring my books out of storage.

We have a small library here, as well as a couple of book cases in the community room, where we can donate books and take what someone else has donated. Most of them are readable, but not necessarily worth keeping.

Wow! Up six notches and sincere compliments from professionals! It doesn’t get much better than that. I’ve been reading some of the soil science materials because I’m interested in rocks and dirt, and the information is both plentiful and complex. Those young people will set out in life well-prepared!
