qu1j0t3 | that shows just how UN-representative they are. | Apr 27 02:04 |
XFaCE | Heck, even the REform party wasn't this ass-clownish | Apr 27 02:05 |
qu1j0t3 | i figure the fuckwit% in canada must be around 35% -- not enough to seize control of the whole country. | Apr 27 02:05 |

XFaCE | blocking them seems rather hypocritical if I may say | Apr 27 15:25 |
XFaCE | I am very hesitant to block people | Apr 27 15:26 |
qu1j0t3 | hypocritical if you like. | Apr 27 15:26 |
qu1j0t3 | i usually have a 3 strikes policy. | Apr 27 15:26 |
XFaCE | what's the criteria? | Apr 27 15:26 |
qu1j0t3 | but there's a lot of people who aren't worth the effort | Apr 27 15:26 |
qu1j0t3 | anyone who is rude, or defends mass murder, and so on | Apr 27 15:27 |
qu1j0t3 | merit an instant block | Apr 27 15:27 |
qu1j0t3 | people who want to debate in some form often never get blocked | Apr 27 15:27 |
qu1j0t3 | unless they break one of those rules | Apr 27 15:27 |
qu1j0t3 | 3 strikes works for stuff like name dropping. | Apr 27 15:27 |
qu1j0t3 | Jack Layton and his wife broke it. | Apr 27 15:27 |
qu1j0t3 | bonk | Apr 27 15:27 |
qu1j0t3 | there was a "We're spending Christmas Day at the Gretzkys" | Apr 27 15:28 |
qu1j0t3 | block! | Apr 27 15:28 |
qu1j0t3 | well, not block, but UNFOLLOW | Apr 27 15:28 |
qu1j0t3 | remember twitter has more idiots than identi.ca | Apr 27 15:28 |
XFaCE | ah yes | Apr 27 15:29 |
qu1j0t3 | racism - instant block. plain stupid - instant block. an example of the latter would be a reference to communism or socialism that, uh, doesn't make sense. | Apr 27 15:29 |
XFaCE | name dropping? | Apr 27 15:29 |
qu1j0t3 | XFaCE: yeah, i gave an example. but that would be un-follow, not block. | Apr 27 15:29 |
qu1j0t3 | if i follow somebody who name-drops 3 times, i'll unfollow. | Apr 27 15:30 |
XFaCE | why is that bad? | Apr 27 15:30 |
qu1j0t3 | heh | Apr 27 15:30 |
qu1j0t3 | it's offensive | Apr 27 15:30 |
qu1j0t3 | to me, anyway | Apr 27 15:30 |
XFaCE | I mean, if it was the Gates, then I'd confront him | Apr 27 15:30 |
qu1j0t3 | "Dinner at the Gates' awesome mansion! He's like a real life superhero!" | Apr 27 15:31 |
qu1j0t3 | even Layton broke this rule. | Apr 27 15:31 |

qu1j0t3 | also | Apr 27 15:49 |

qu1j0t3 | right | Apr 27 15:49 |

qu1j0t3 | they'll be around for a while | Apr 27 15:52 |

XFaCE | The problem is is that those blanks are due to shitty writing | Apr 27 15:53 |
