This closing of threads stuff is so very.
(That means it is bad)
Sometimes it just cannot be helped. Once the reports start going in fast and furious? The Mods have no choice BUT to act. The balance will always be heavy toward the banal. Millions of people around the world use the site. Thousands and thousands AROUND THE WORLD use the forums. A few manage to skate on the edges of the rules and slide over the line now and again.
A vocal minority will always hold more sway than a few witty joculariasts. The site is useless if it gets on the wrong side of internet censors. And that is a LOT easier than it might seem. And pretty difficult to rectify once it happens. Thus has it ever been.
Call them fun suckers, prudes, whatever. They don’t answer to jokesters like us. They don’t answer to the minority. Their job is to keep MFP accessible to the majority. Always will be.
This is neither a suggestion nor a complaint. It is a statement of fact. YOURE FIRED.
Just because it’s a fact doesn’t mean I can’t complain about it. Now fetch my steed, my lovely lady Sancho Panza!
Sorry, Don. We are more like Ken and Barbie. You are actually kinda like Skipper.
As you wish, li’l buddy.
Well I just happen to be wearing a coconut bra so this is actually pretty accurate.0 -

Please quit stocking the vending machine with Sun Chips and Nutri-Grain bars. Can a brother get a moon pie up in here? Damn.7

Yes, we know. MFP's Chit Chat milieu is a second chance for some people who didn't get an invite to join the popular gang in high school so they're making up for lost time by recreating some warped version of that petty kitten that was a waste of time even in the day. But keep your mean spirited manure on your walls and your PMs, mkay?5

I would like an owl, penguin and parrot emoji please.3

Manure is actually pretty darn good stuff. Best gardens I ever had was when we had horses and a manure pile in the back.
Plus it’s fun to say manure. Sometimes to be fancy I pronounce it man-oo-Ray. I suggest everyone do that.1 -

because amazon marketing/devs solicited answers by emailing people who bought the product like they’re taking a survey then auto populates the response, super counterintuitive for people less computer savvy (like older folks) and it resulted in stupid/unhelpful responses
Whoa. The "sorry, I don't know the answer" answers always made me irrationally angry but I just got my first email with that "survey".
It still makes me irrationally angry.

I’ve been thinking about the buttons .they need “like” “dislike” “eye roll” “liar liar pants on fire” and “would bang”
Someone told me that the Inspiring button was the "would bang" button.
Have I been using it wrong?6 -
I want an elephant and dolphin emoji too.0

This all depends on perspective, I guess. I find some people don’t care about the point and simply enjoy being argumentative.
Oh for sure, there is always someone who enjoys playing devils advocate or giving their two cents just for the sake of it.
Me 🤷🏽♂️2 -

Nah... Like makes Awesome redundant
I like inspiring, It doesn't work so well in chit-chat but in the other 90%, it's needed
What we need is an LOL button2 -
