Correct. Ancient OOT history. So long ago that when you cursed, it said [censored] instead of the little ****ing dots we have now but [censored] was also the name of the mod.

Ah, I see, thanks.


by d2_e4 m

Who the [censored] is [censored]?

Yeah, he was a mod in OOT. He's everything Rapini wanted to be. He was the exact mod you would expect Trump to be if the only power Trump had in his life was modding a forum for free.

Nice, bring it back to politics.

I'm on the Authoritarian Left. You think my regime would just let you practice Capitalism? No, my friend. Reeducation camp.

I see. So you're okay with authoritarianism? What if it's on the right?

Housenuts.

I have to say, I'm not sure I'm onboard with this. I thought he was a sucky poster and all, but not really banworthy.

HN pretty much a zero-content poster, but sometimes was funny. Trolly also zero-content most the time, but sometimes I find him utterly hysterical.

On the other hand, I wouldn't fight for his return.

Free Housenuts!!!

I have never had any issue with housenuts, I'm actually in a game thread with him right now that got ****ed up because of his temp ban so that sucks.People are often very different in politics threads than the rest of the forum because they are blowing off steam or whatever. Things and people are frustrating.I also have no idea of the history. I don't historically hang out in t

I've even heard that SRM is an excellent poster in a sports forum.

GO RAMS!!!


Free housenuts! Or don’t! I don’t care, it’s just funny!

Doesn't feel like you're qualified to make this assessment.

Fair enough.

I wish a few others would just lead with this from the very beginning instead of feeding me a bunch of wind by blowing sunshine up my ass over walls of text with takes pretending that they have what's best for me and my family.

this 1,000%

Trump math ITT. But yeah, I agree, too.


by rickroll m

In before Lozen says 80%

i’m not a trump supporter. i’m not going to fellate biden just to pass your purity test, and you don’t get to label me based on that.

if you think otherwise, quote where i said anything positive about trump.

the absolute irony of posting that you agree with that sentiment while doing the same performative act he's ridiculing... you have absolutely no self awareness

In before JJ says 1.5%

What's up? I didn't say you're a Trump supporter nor would I care if you are. Also, I'm not pro-Biden, so not sure why you would think that's my litmus test.

I'm just saying one can't agree about something more than 100%. It's either 100% or something less than that. But Trump thinks 500% off of $100 is $20 so you guys have similar math strategies, hence the comment.

this would be a reasonable response if either

A) people didn't constantly go over 100% for rhetorical reasons as a standard use case of the english language

or

B) you didn't constantly label me a trump supporter daily despite zero evidence of me actually supporting him

so acting like this was some completely neutral and reasonable observation divorced from context is a little hard to take seriously.


Bring housenuts back and let everyone call him the r word. It’s the only fair solution.

also, β€œthis 1,000%” was obviously rhetorical emphasis, whereas trump’s β€œ500% off $100 is $20” was him genuinely not understanding basic math.

those are not remotely the same category of thing - if you stopped being so tribalistic, you'd be able to see that yourself

that loser makes the same claims against me. recently lied and said i voted for trump thrice. dude goes weeks without smiling. hasn't laughed since the aughts.


Anyone who says "aughts" should be taken behind the barn and shot. Same with "noughties".

Okay, but there’s got to be a term for 2000-2009. Saying “00s” out loud sounds stupid. Aughts is fine.

I'm pretty sure you have claimed that Rick is a Trump supporter.

I can try to find the receipts if you want.

(I could be wrong and am confusing you with someone else.)

I like LandOlakes but he does lie more than most folks around here.
