I trust that you mean the pointy end 
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Apparently I'm as wonderful and amazing on here as I am in real life. Go figure

Yep. I was welcomed here by a John Wayne imitator. All that followed were much easier to live with.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"No, from Canada."

Nothing much. UFOs landed on the White House lawn, we welcomed our Robot Overlords, and DD left.
Oh, and Donald Trump was elected President of the US.

Dalek Dave was a nob with issues, someone else said that we all are to someone - yes, but that doesn't make it any less annoying! Him and his sycophants were the main reason for me not hanging around here so much in the last few years too - pity CP doesn't have a 'block' facility like FB to filter out that kind of stuff, it gets kind of tedious sometime trawling through the crap to find something interesting here but these days if things get too dull or annoying I can always resort to doing some work!!

You must be confused, DD was one of our more entertaining members. But if one person's comments can make you leave the forum then perhaps the internet is not the place for you.

I guess watching a drunkard spout hate speech could be considered entertaining.

The Lounge is now the place to bash products and hate on companies and also post links to comics. That sums up most of it. 
There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

 That would add to the quality of the Lounge.

I find "more than one poster" to the lounge less pleasant than burning butt-hair.
So what?
If you let others decide how to live your life by inducing you to avoid where you want be to be simply for their sake - well - perhaps hiding in a safe place watching Mr. Roger's Neighborhood[^] reruns is the place to be whilst awaiting that meeting with eternity.

Is anyone else thinking that Member 96 might in fact be a sock puppet account for DD himself?
|
|
|
|

you can tell I'm not DD because I haven't said anything drunken and or racist yet; I was a member here almost from inception and pleased to see my account still works. not sure where my name went in the intervening years but 96 is a nice enough one!
