The Demon Pit - off topic tangent stuff moved from elsewhere

[Proper Gander]

This is specifically so that interested parties may continue a crapfest that evolved in the wrong spot and other interested parties can laugh at them if they feel the need.

Random chat is legit waffle with an official seal of approval. I may or may not have made that up on the spot, but I like reading the random chat thread so if I can dump GoH’s political musings somewhere I’m less likely to see them, that suits me

Is it mandatory? I've been to the footy, the casino, and the strippers and no one's demanded it for entry.

Didn't you have to scan a QR code when you went to the footy?

I told the security guy I couldn't download the app and he let me in. No one was checking the green ticks anyway.
Everywhere else I just had to write my name, phone number & the time down. I could have written anything.

Hope you don't get covid so that nobody has to see the places you've been to.

I can't tell if you're serious or not.
If so, can you please provide a source that isn't Fox News or a Murdoch media outlet or Trump himself that proves the election was unfair. No opinion pieces, no bullshit, show me evidence campaigner.

Do your own research. And certainly don’t look to Fox News or Murdoch for supporting evidence. Those halfwits are no less culpable.

Outstanding call.

If anyone has a deep need to discuss US politics or other random shot could you do it elsewhere? Like the random thread or better yet the SRP board where tedious and implausible conspiracy theories can be really unpacked.

 

[GatesOfHell]

Lol what?

Might be time to broaden your reading, old chap.

It might even be argued democracy has returned... seeing as this time around the side with more votes took power.

If by ‘democracy’ you mean an orchestrated colour revolution and removal by surreptitious means resulting in coup d’état of the duly elected President, then I’m in agreement with you.

If not then it’s you who needs to widen the scope of information you choose to digest (or more accurately, that which is fed to you).

Sure. Just as an interesting aside though, were you aware that the term ‘conspiracy theory’ was first weaponised by the CIA to influence public opinion by casting anyone who criticised the ridiculous Warren Commission Report into the 1963 Kennedy Assassination, as a paranoid crackpot? Look into it. Rabbit hole goes very deep my friend.

That’s fascinating. Now shut up while I try and remember how to move posts.

I know. I’ve called for Weideman’s head. Coz he’s shyte. And that’s no conspiracy. That’s a fact.

Do you have privileges to move individual posts to another thread or do you need to be an admin for that?

That’s fascinating. Now shut up while I try and remember how to move posts.

Ah nevermind.

Hello and welcome to The Demon Pit, where conversations that took themselves well away from any relationship with the thread topic get moved to. Or it will be once I refresh my understanding of how to move posts.

Is this not just the Random Chat thread? Or is that reserved for BBQ talk?

Yeah, I think I was meant to make this a few weeks ago when I suggested. Well I guess I'm just more of an ideas man. Or did I?

Wait, is this post off topic? Bloody hell, try moving this to here and we've got our own version of inception.

 

[jhong]

The idea is we don't want to delete content that is relevant discussion but avoid the 2-3 pages of off topic stuff so posters don't have to read through it. So those who want to read it can continue here and those that only want to read or discuss the subject they went into a particular thread for don't have to wade through it.

 

[Proper Gander]

It amazes me that after ll of this time the contract tracing in this state is still ******* pathetic

Just to let you know, I ballsed up the thread creation and merge thing so you seem to have scored the OP. Congratulations

Ill come back and fix it but after I’ve had a beer

 

[Toump Ass]

Hope you don't get covid so that nobody has to see the places you've been to.

Honestly if I had COVID already and infected literally everyone I came in contact with over the weekend, I'd probably be doing the world a favour.

Change the time and date of your post or sticky it. idk.

So this thread is essentially just a bin then.

What's that Bill Burr line about Ebola?

"I don't know much about it, except that when you get it you have the uncontrollable urge to go to the airport."

Yeah. Kind of landfill, but containing junk people might still like to rummage around in.

I wanted that analogy to sound better
