Because how hard is it to poach a goddamn egg?!?!

Just the tip.

How do you know he/she is male? Now that's racist! ;)

How do you know he/she is male? Now that's racist! ;)

I got tired of writing things like he/she, s/he, or "he or she." Calling he/she "it" would be worse. So it guess "he" it is.

mell says

No, that would be sexist... please don't confuse your prejudices.

Perhaps, to be politically correct, in the future we should refer to zzyzzx as a "shemale". That'll do it.

Alas, I recall a period with gender distinction.

Sad. For a minute there I was thinking you were classier than those other guys, elliemae. Obviously I was wrong.

Don't be uptight. Be happy.

I know, I know. But in today's politically correct worlds, it amounts to the same reaction. Even when there is clearly no race but religion or culture involved, everyone cries racism. It's the ultimate club to squash any discussion/enemy.

I was referring to da homeboy's original rant ;)

Homeboy says

You got a rise out of me, and I'm sure that was your intention. Hate speech is where I draw the line. It offends me.

I'll be looking forward to hearing from you when the Libs on this board start lambasting the tea party next time then.

Homeboy says

Patrick, are you still sure you want trolls moderating their own threads?

I did make one change to the moderation scheme: if you're a Premium member, then the thread owner cannot delete your comment. Unless he himself is Premium, which is not likely.

Only $5/month, first month free!

I'm off to work now. 3rd day at new job. It's not bad, but it does cut down on my forum time.

Get a corner office and face the front of your desk toward the door.

Patrick, there may be a small bug. I have trouble deleting my own comment in a thread started by a non-premium member.

Homeboy says

Sad. For a minute there I was thinking you were classier than those other guys, elliemae. Obviously I was wrong.

I never saw the original headline, so it didn't make sense to me ("ex realtor..."). I did comment on the stupidity of the headline.

However, having made a comment, I moved on and replied to mell. That comment had nothing to do with race.

Was I offended when I found out the headline? Sure. But I am classier than them other dudes. I gots me tons o' class and am proud to share it. Ya'll are my victims (I mean, fans...)

Threads morph into other comments. It's too bad that you were offended - and so was I - but zzyzzx says offensive shit every day. Some I let go, while others I make classy comments.

Troll zzyzzx started a pedophile thread attacking Sandy Hook kids , Patrick thought it was a joke, a joke zzyzzx made several times.

I've seen multiple racist threads, by the same people, pedophile threads and comments by zzyzzx and many, many bigoted threads made by various people all started on this Forum

I have complained and complained, there is no monitoring and you will never get it. Patrick does not care.

Homeboy says

ad. For a minute there I was thinking you were classier than those other guys, elliemae. Obviously I was wrong.

Your just figuring out that one Homeboy, you were VERY wrong. Sorry.

Yeah, you're right. Now that I think about it, Patrick started a thread awhile back about black people being more likely to murder white people or some such drivel. Although I didn't think it was very enlightened, I didn't find it overtly racist, so I didn't complain about it. But it does show you where Patrick's sentiments lie with regard to race.

zzyzzx's thread title WAS overtly racist, but what's more discouraging, I think, is that quite a few forum members saw fit to joke around about it, and not in a disapproving way, but in a "we're going along with you" way.

What's shocking is that there only seem to be a couple of people who even care.

You do understand that the joking around is their way of saying, "This is not an issue; you shouldn't be offended", right? You were belittling me by suggesting that this is simply a matter of "political correctness", and comparing it to a trivial example of such. But I do not find blatant racism to be a trivial matter.

I mean, for God's sake, in the 1940s they used to make jokes about black people being lazy and stealing. I guess we haven't progressed at all since then.

the amount of bigoted comments and hateful images expressed on this forum is mind blowing!

the majority are expressed as fun! comical! however a pattern has emerged with Troll zzyzzx his funny picture thread is a hate thread attacking anyone who is different from himself, be it gay, lesbian, especially female and the obese, it's never ending.

did I mentioned Troll zzyzzx pictured thread containing speech that patrick said is just a funny picture containing imagery of pedophilie hate speech attacking the sanyhook kids!

http://patrick.net/?p=1200568
and http://patrick.net/?p=1219883
POST #369 precedes the image and explains his thought process
POST #300 is disgusting
Patrick refuses to deal with it.

This image post was originally preceded by a comment that zzyzzx made about the Sandyhook kids and not being able to find a pedobears image about them, he then challenged everyone on this forum to find him one.

When no one listened he CREATED HITS OWN NAZI Propaganda linking pedophilia and Sandyhook.

I complained to Patrick he see;s nothing wrong with this image. I find it offensive.

Continuning attacks made on Woman by Troll zzyzzx

What's wrong with the "car repairs" post?

It never ends with him, here's another attack on obese people

Troll zzyzzx is a hateful pig

again more vile shit from Troll zzyzzx

He is perhaps one of these worst bigoted, hateful, woman hating racist i I've seen on this forums. It's not funny!

Right wing commies
Leftist Nazis
Point their fingers
Rumours linger

We don't care what you think

Branded sexist
Labelled racist
Want it clearer?
Check the mirror

Some would say that we're biased
Accusations that we are racist
Well, shit comes in all hues
Now this means you
Cause things ain't always like they seem

Mell - zzyzzx made up a headline that said "Black man steals iPod..." The man's race was not mentioned at all in the real article, because it's not relevant to the story. Other people don't do that, only zzyzzx. I never saw a single headline that said, "White guy shoots up elementary school", nor do I ever expect to see such a thing. To assume that people commit crimes because of their race, is racist. Please try to follow along here. I know the green guitar is real pretty, but try to focus, for fuck's sake. Or are you just trolling?

The original headline he made read : "Obama Supporter steals iPad Mini after FedEx delivered it"

he is an equal opportunity offender.

he hates woman as much as he hates everyone else.

Homeboy says

He did not say that. He was pissed precisely because it was left out of the article.

I don't find race relevant in that particular crime.

Speaking of black people, I have this man-crush on Idris Elba.

One of the sexist men alive.

I know nothing about zzyzzx and neither do you. If you want to jump to conclusions based on a couple of posts on a web forum, that's your right, but others may disagree.

Peter P says

He was pissed because the article didn't say, "A black man stole an iPod"? Why on earth would you want the article to say that?

Now I can't figure out if you guys are trolls or if you're just stupid.

mell says

I know that he put up a racist thread title, and that he deleted my post when I called him on it. I'm not claiming to know anything else about him. I don't really care; in this instance I only care about hate speech on a public forum. I haven't "jumped to a conclusion"; it is a simple fact that pointing out a thief's race when it has nothing to do with the story, is racist. He hasn't provided any other explanation, and in fact he even wrote in the other thread: "I'm making up shit to mess with people."

Thanks for telling me! OK, it's at the top of my bug list.

If you are so offended, why don't you "ignore" those people you find offensive?

What you don't seem to understand is that, the more you protest, the more play the original comments get. You are propagating the very messages that you find to be offensive.

So, let me explain this again:

A person starts a thread. Awesome. But as soon as another person posts to that thread, it changes. It may change for the better and continue along the lines of the original post. But it might just morph into something else. You have no control over the direction the thread takes, even if you make repeated attempts to redirect subsequent posters.

12x3, Homeboy, go ahead and dislike me all you want. I don't give a shit. But you could easily lower your blood pressure and make your viewing experience better by simply ignoring those people you don't like.

Good point, Mell. There are two people in their club now. Perhaps they should start their own forum. Just a suggestion.
