Poor Sass was confused the other day, I found a "spit roast" animation but couldn't find the pig, the fire *or* the spit!

How does *that* work??

From: Cael Merryman

Do you or have you actually had teenaged children? By and large, the ones most convinced theirs were doing nothing wrong were the ones most fooled by the kids. My son is about to pass the 30 year old mark and turned out pretty all right, but he managed to get away with a few things in the years between 13 and 21. As did I, and my dad was a senior noncom with the base MPs (as in, very, very senior). Talk about a support and reporting network - if I didn't get a ticket, I got a talking to that was more painful than paying cash. I STILL got away with stuff (I think - maybe they were just tired of responding to everything a kid with a drivers license can do).

So my parents don't intercept the fact that I was heading down to the dam runoff to drink some certified awful Texas light beer and, what, they should lose their car or something? And what exactly is SL/LL going to do to a parent that doesn't supervise, even assuming that kids and parents are on SL? Put it in the TOS? Come on.

No, never had teenage kids and never plan to. But LL doesn't have to put anything in the ToS at all. Just as a courtesy, they should warn people that online fraud will be prosecuted and that lying about age in an online registration form is fraud, and using that registration is theft of service. And then they should act on it.

I truly don't care if Little Johnny goes on a Texas 3.2 bender, falls off the dam and drowns along with any local cheerleaders he knocked-up. I do, however, care that the little sh!t lied to gain access to an online service. That should be punished severely, before he follows in the path of Enron execs and hurts people on a grand scale. And quite seriously, if the parents haven't managed to get the kids to understand that what they do online is serious business, the parents need to be replaced: they're not doing their jobs.

Maybe you're supposed to put the animation in your roasting spit object? (And, may I add, EWWWWWW, gross.)

Come on, by this time shouldn't the identity of the poster "B" be obvious to us all?

I must be dense.....

The only thing denser than me when it comes to identifying said poster, is iridium.

Conventional wisdom is that Broccoli and Lewis are the same critter.

Yeah I know that story - but did Broccoli get banned for being Lewis after all that time?

Otherwise why?

Prok? I had a few guesses, but none of them are banned as far as I know.

Obviously I am guessing, I do not know, but I think my guess is pretty tuned in to the poster's positions and diction. Trout is closest to my own guess.

So you're fine with Trout arguing with himself? Doesn't make sense, and to suggest that the positions are in line with his is beyond silly.

No I do not think it is Trout. My guesses as to who it may be are closest to his own.

lol - She meant my guess of Prokofy was closest to hers, not that I was arguing with my own alt.

Although, I've had some hysterical arguments with CTF Mumfuzz in group chat a few times.

CTF: VIVA la revolucion!!!
Trout:Goddamned long-haired pinko commie.
Etc.
