Seeds. Itty bitty powerful ones. Fun fact. Mustard will fuck you up! The defenses mustard the plant evoled are really hardcore. Attacks music membranes, destroys cell walls, even affects DNA. Goddamn. But… If you don’t have feet you better taste bad… So there ya go.
We get mustard seeds and grind them up. And mix them with the acetic acid that is a byproduct of the fermentation of grains by lactobacillus… Wait. Maybe not lactobacillus… Anyway.
We mix it with vinegar.
It has a bright color and a sour tangy spicy taste. Good stuff. Mustard.
And people wear shirts. People like good stuff. Sometimes you eat something with mustard… And it’s brightly colored…
On mistake it’s on your shirt. Maybe it just happened cause of fate.
So you don’t notice. People are looking at you quizically. Some giggle. Smirk. You know…
As someone else stated, without the benefit of eye contact, body language and tone of voice there’s no way of determining when others are joking or actually being serious.
Furthermore, given that I am a new member here (and not Mindysan’s sock puppet as I saw someone joke) there’s no way I could know who’s for real and who’s just a wiseacre.
I will admit that my own experiences with the darker side of the web have probably jaded me, and made me more likely to be on guard.
If you saw the kind of fangirls I managed to accrue just from speaking my mind, you might understand why though; it was beyond batshit crazy.

This is basically just a defense mechanism for the community to eject trollies quickly and effectively.

And I guess this is what happens when your community’s defense mechanism meets mine.
I’m bitchy, and sarcastic to a fault, but I’m not a trolley; I just have this incredible knack for pissing total strangers off, even when I’m not trying to.
Whatever dude… All I can say is with me you get a double helping back of whatever you give me. I got a lot of shit over nothing and I will give twice as much back. I didn’t talk any shit to anyone until they started with insults and that I owe no respect to.
Well, this is all horrifically off-topic, but there’s too many posts for me to even think about transferring them into a new topic. So this thread is officially The Purge of BBS threads, but instead of just being anarchy, there may be arbitrary and capricious moderation as whim takes us.
If that’s the case and this is how people are treated then I would accept a ban as badge of absolute honor. I guess the negative critiques I have read about this site and it’s community might not be so far of. Tried giving it a chance and remained respectful and cordial but damn the vile comments and attacks.
That’s it fuck this site. If this is how it starts off this quick it’s shit and the users are shit.
Thanks for the invite Melz and hope my association with you doesn’t ruin your time here or give you bad name.
