Did you somehow think an "official mathowie post" wouldn't degenerate into the exact same conversation (and I use that term lightly) as all the other threads?
and forget the pony, I want a groundhog (it seems more fitting).

For the record, I agree. People should also take a few deep breaths when they find themselves on the verge of imploding into non-existance with unbridled anger brought about by the comments of others.
Though I do admit to liking the occasional anger-filled diatribe. It lends a certain rhythm to the writing.

That said, obesity threads always turn into pissing matches that defeat the purpose of this place. Stupid as it sounds, there should be a ban on discussing weight on Metafilter.
Then why are you doing it??
Man, I'm outta here. Eilatan, sorry about the train wreck. And I have to take back what I said about "aberration." Guess it was those rose-colored glasses Miguel sold me when I was drunk.

Oh yeah, save the nonsense about desensitizing us all... because, you know, it's only a word and loses it's power if repeated frequently.

Any evidence of involvement. (I hope I wasn't misunderstanding what
you were saying.) Well, now I feel better about fisting my dog. Either
love this country enough to keep it a democracy, or leave it. People
still say this? Christ, it's thirty years old, and it's still
incredibly witless. And speaking as a career. I don't want to sell
anything, buy anything, or process anything as a cover album? And can
it ever be forgiven for what its deadly moogs wrought? Also, anyone
remember Faster Pussycat mauling You're So Vain? No? That's for the
reburial of veterans from the two world wars. . . . . The host nations,
while retaining sovereignty over the burial grounds, have granted the
land in perpetuity to the table where I was sitting in a French
restaurant; proper serving pace is Oh, man, word. This flipped me out
in Paris, but many places seem to take the stance that your table is
your table until the bitter end. I never got used to the table where I
was sitting. Jesus spoke, My child what are you even here? Aren't there
enough genuinely political threads for you to scamper around in? Jesus
Christ. Well,...

It's just a silly thread where people blow off steam and have some dumb fun with images. No, it's not What MetaFilter Is All About, but it's not the Beginning of the End either. It happens once in a while, those who enjoy that sort of thing have a lot of fun, most people ignore it, and life goes on. Why so many normally sensible people are getting their panties in a twist over this one is beyond me.
Props to LarryC for the extremely apposite Macauley quote.
On preview: rushmc, I often feel like you are among those who "seem to just refuse to get it"; fortunately, neither of us has the ability to do anything about our convictions other than mouth off. The only one who has any power is Matt, and he's left the thread alone. Selah.

I'm assuming it was the logitech harmony universal remote. If it was, then it's easily worth the money. That thing is the household tech geek's dream, because it functions like any other remote, can be programmed by downloading ANY REMOTE CAPABLE DEVICE YOU CAN IMAGINE off the internet directly into the remote via usb, and doesn't tend to confuse the less tech savvy. It's a modern miracle of remote technology. You can set it up, leave it on the coffee table, and your family won't scratch their heads trying to figure out how it works. It's the shit.

dios, are you confused or fascist? Matt can sanction people by disabling a user account; no knowledge of an IP address is required. IP addresses are only useful if the sanctioning involves discovering users' real identities in order to punish them in real life.
Are you really contending that you "like the idea that people [would] be careful what they say and do on this site" out of fear of consequences in their real life?
WHAT

Should we worry that you're going to call the cops on us for what we write here? That's one fucking chilling effect dios.
This is rich: dios complains that he's such a martyr because people here "misunderstand" him, and then dios essentially says that he's happier if we all live in a state of fear of real life consequences.

Also, I have just got to start paying attention to Mefi Music. That flapjax song is so cool, and Junior's mashup is great!

You can definitely have it both ways. Implement the PM system, and also have a set of radio buttons to expose your email to [Nobody, Members, Everybody]. You don't even need to do the image thing, really.
I LIKE getting impassioned emails from the likes of SCDB and having long off-site conversations, it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy about the community. Really. It's wonderful, and you don't get that other places.

Sounds like a lyric: Bagel or angel...
Okay, I'll take a stab at fleshing that out a bit:
Bagel or angel
I don't know
One got wings
The other got dough
One's in heaven
One's in your gut
Still I can't tell
What from what
Lord I can't tell
What from what
Bagel or angel, don't know which
Needle pulling another stitch
Angels dance on the head of a pin
How many bagels and how much gin
Bagel or angel, bagel or angel
Here's the plain truth, simple and pure
Bagel or angel, bagel or angel
Ain't no way to know for sure

I dunno, jessamyn...I think it's like when you're half-tool, half-braggart, and half-borderline-stalker, it's like you're kind of a, uh, douche. And a half. Or something. It's just a really bad combination. I'm surprised anyone would be surprised at this reaction, really. If the question were "I feel like I might be extraordinary lame; these are my habits; what might I do differently?" it probably would have gone over a lot better than "I'm awesome [followed by a lengthy accounting of all the ways in which he is so not awesome in any way], and I really like women, so why aren't any of them sucking my dick right now?" Since it was the latter, though...yeah. Tragic inevitability.

I've got a little challenge for you, Sark --
a new recruit. He's a tough case, but I
want him treated in the usual manner. Train
him for the games... let him hope for a
while... and blow him away.
SARK
You've got it. I've been hopin' you'd send
me somebody with a little moxie ... what

He's not any kind of favorite, Sark.
