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

' faster than the Concorde'

No, about the same.
Concorde used to arrive before you'd left.

LHR-JFK
1030-0920 BA001

LHR-IAD

I do miss that ol' bird, rattling the windows and scaring the animals.

Afternoon, all. The Montoya wedding started on Tiempo Latino, over 1/2 hour late. The bride was not entirely happy with how she looked, I deduced, but eventually she was pulled together and charming.

I was complimented for my singing, and Elen will be compensated for playing the guitar, eventually. DP and I performed as a present.

Afternoon TC,

A successful morning all around then!

You sing Solo ,then?

[Tax-chick]

Yes, and also (more often) with a choir. Most Sundays, and weddings, funerals, and quinceaneras, which are 15th-birthday celebrations for girls.

[ThomasThomas]

Saw this on Facebook

[Tax-chick]

LOL!

[Tax-chick]

Jake wanted me to feed him, so he walked all over the keyboard hitting random characters, and then sat down on the Enter key.

I love catz.

Concorde used to arrive before you'd left.

Several years ago, I flew out of Perth, West Australia on the 8th of the month just before midnight and went on to Sydney....hung there for a bit, then boarded the long flight up to Honolulu - arrived at 11:15PM on the 8th.

[moose07]

Time travel is great isn’t it!
Have done the 24hour flight the other way, left LHR on Saturday 17:30h arrived Auckland 06:25h on Monday!
The internal clock was producing errors for days.

[moose07]

Could you post Jake’s ramblings, please.
There could be hidden data or a message hidden within.
I will know if you fake it....:)

[Tax-chick]

The computer cleared it out and announced, “Username or Password Not Recognized.” I fed Jake and he went outside.

[moose07]

Once again the advancement of mankind if foiled...

[Silentgypsy]

I know what you mean. Going out in the evening is my least favorite thing to do. If I still had decent night vision, it wouldn’t be so bad....

[Silentgypsy]

You totally crack me up!

[Silentgypsy]

Sounds like a fun wedding!

[Silentgypsy]

The subspace continuum is disrupted with that sort of post. However, who cares?

[Silentgypsy]

That’s telling Jake a thing or three.

[moose07]

Hi SG,
There are those around here who regularly put wormholes in the continuum ,so a little time travel shouldn’t hurt from time to time...:)

[Anoreth]

Power is out here, inconveniently just as I was about to make another drink. Now I can’t open the freezer or watch TV so I guess I will go to bed.

The Movie Reviews

"Stand Up Guys" with Al Pacino, Christopher Walken, Alan Arkin, Julianna Margulies, Mark
Margolis, Lucy Punch, Addison Timlin, Vanessa Ferlito, Katheryn Winnick, Bill Burr

2012, Rated R for violence, language, and brief drug "use" (prescription drug misuse) 95 minutes

In spite of its "R" rating, this movie is an actors' showcase and comedy, beautifully performed by
Pacino, Walken, Arkin, and the others. Pacino gets out of prison after spending 28 years for
robbery and murder when an accomplice in the crime was killed by what may or may not have
been a bullet from Pacino's gun. The father of the dead man is a top-level crime syndicate boss,
and he has given Walken, Pacino's BFF, the option of killing Pacino or dying himself. Walken
picks up Pacino at the prison, and they renew their friendship. They eat at a nice restaurant and
visit a house of ill repute where Pacino lets off steam off camera. They pick up Arkin at the old
folks' home, more fun and car thefts ensue. As the mobster's deadline approaches, they try to
think of alternatives, but the mobster threatens Walken's granddaughter, and the story takes
a-whole-nother tangent. it was really good, funny, and well played.   ★★★★


"Parker" with Jason Statham, Jennifer Lopez, Michael Chiklis, Bobby Cannavale, Nick Nolte,
Clifton Collins Jr., Patti LuPone, Emma Booth, Wendell Pierce

2013, Rated R for violence and brief nudity, 118 minutes

Parker (Statham) is a crook with a code. He never steals from those who can't afford to lose it,
and he always plays by the rules and expects his accomplices to do the same. His girlfriend's
(Booth) dad (Nolte) recommends a gang that is planning to steal the gate from the Ohio State
Fair, estimated at 1Mega$. One of the crew botches a distraction fire, and someone dies in it,
but they make off with the cash. As they're driving off, they announce to Parker that they will
pool their shares to finance the next heist, some antique jewels that are going up for auction.
Parker, sticking to the rules, objects, and they shoot him and leave him for dead. A local family
finds him and gets him to a hospital, and his path to setting things right again begins to take
shape. It was typical Jason Statham (pronounced "State-'m" - I heard him say his name once on
the special features), but this time I think he was trying to outdo "Die Hard" He really took a
"beating." Anyway, we thoroughly enjoyed this one.   ★★★★
