Lurkers De-Lurk Thread
— Ace

Welcome the lurkers.

Do not frighten the lurkers. Do not move suddenly towards the lurkers. Treat the lurkers as if they are fawns in the morning haze.

No not with guns. I mean fawns you want to pet. No, not on their deer-genitals.

Come on, just fawns. Nice animals.

Just be nice. Is this so hard?! Geeze Louise.

Lurkers, you should probably just continue lurking.

Banned? First, see this thread by Andy.

10 I mostly lurk. Sometimes I comment and usually, I am misunderstood. So I return to lurking. But I have deep admiration for the comments here.

26 I was a lurker for many years. Then I started posting more often (nowhere near Sven levels, but fairly regularly). Had to stop last year because of time and health issues. So...am I a lurker? A part-time moron? Someone who asks too many questions? "I know it sounds absurd, but please tell me who I am!"

I used to lurk. Then someone said something that pissed me off. So I posted, the horde made mash out of my argument, I looked the fool.

But they're good natured, and fun, so I kept coming back. Worst decision I made, mostly because it's a giant time sink

189 I have fawns on my front lawn many mornings. (Vid in nic link.) I walk out and wave and hoot hello and sometimes they just go on grazing. They're best when I have kitties come out of the house with me, and mostly pay attention to the kitties and ignore the deer. Perhaps you should put a fuzzy kitty pic in the post, Ace. Lurkers, I'm a paranoid lunatic buzzball of shyness and self-consciousness who thinks they're talking about me every time I see a reference to a troll being spotted. Okay, not every time. But, I totally appreciate lurkdom. It's hot in the kitchen. Even in the usually warm and friendly confines of AoSHQ's twinkie- and MRE-stocked commissary. You might need something cooling to endure it. I saw a recipe for mint juleps a ways back that might do it for some. Remember what René Descartes warned: I blog-comment, else I am not.

219 I just listened to the Classic Rock Mystery Link, and I'm not sure I would classify that as a "fade-out". Sure, there are no more lyrics after it starts, but it's basically another song. I do agree that the second half of the song is superior. Love the piano.

The official said a work group from the consulate was in Boston to investigate the situation and assist relatives of the victims. The official Chinese news agency Xinhua reported that relatives have requested that the deceased not be identified.

Well, I'd say that the three-legged stool actually is.  iirc, one of Huckabee's advisors crowed about getting rid of one of the legs (not the Social-Con leg) back in 2008, and we all know how *that* turned out...

 

Ditching any of the legs in the name of pragmatism is probably going to lead to backfire in the end.

I {ace} found his website and emailed him to ask his doctor's name. In the interim, I badgered my own doctor to prescribe Klonopin, but he did get back to me, told me his doctor's name, and wished me good luck. Good news, he told me. "You don't have a brain tumor and you're not going to die." I thanked him and told him the Klonopin seemed to be working for me. "Welcome back into the fold," he said, and I liked him very much for that. ______________ Sure, the preceding 4,000 words to that paragraph talked about, among other things, the book. But I recalled at the time thinking that Jay wasn't a douchebag - as I liked Jay's work (notably Action, Suicide Kings not so much) and had been on ace for a while, it made an impression. Like Silly Putty. _

Ignore him.  I'm pretty sure that those numbers are wrong.  iirc, when the final poll numbers were looked at a few weeks after the election, the Evangelicals appeared to have turned out for Romney more or less as expected.

 

The oddity in the religious voters category was that Romney apparently got a couple of percentage points fewer Latter-Day Saints than McCain did.  That was a definite "Huh!?" moment for me.

FYI, I am a retired writer-photographer and have been writing and self-publishing books for fun. I have a couple of books on Amazon now, along with a two-part SF novel as Kindle only. Two more novels have been completed and will be published when I get around to it. I am spending this year as a camp host at Moab, Utah, in the red rocks country.

386 I am here to admit that I am an unabashed Ace of Spades lurker.

I lurk because I never bother to read the comment threads any more.  I haven't even read this one.  I only am using comments to post back to the cob in order to share my thoughts on the unusual topic raised.

I never read the comment threads any more, because they are really long, boring, and rarely add any information to broaden understanding of the issues brought up in the articles.

There is a reason Ace calls those who comment here morons and moronettes. 

It wasn't always this way, but now it is.

So with this exception, I shall resume lurking, and ebulliently so.

Trolls get hammered and public figures get gutted.  However, poster on poster violence is fairly unusual around here.  Tempers get heated, like in the late stages of last year's primaries, but while punches are throw folks rarely try to use the Tibetan Death Touch.

I've seen the knives out far more often over at HotAir or even on non-political blogs about cars and such.

424 I think the hard social conservatives are a huge barrier to convincing the Libertarians/social moderates from supporting Republicans. Anti-Abortion, anti-gay marriage, pro drug war...these issues are difficult to defend to somebody who values maximum individual freedom. The only reason I vote Republican is because I fear a poor economy more than I fear some sort of phantom theocracy. Considering how the Republicans like to spend money, I'm losing even that reason.

There are two smart ways you could fix this:

1. Cut the number of damn games, period.

2. Go the soccer route - expand to 174 games and play each team twice. If you're the Yankees, for example, you play 6 games (3 home, 3 away) against every other team. That's it; no unbalanced 19 games for thee but none for me schedule.

Okay.. this bugs me and always has. Why do some doctors and nurses use

the term the patient "expired'? The "patient" wasn't a fucking credit

card. He died, or passed away. He didn't "expire". BUGS. ME.

This term is used so much because there is a lot of death involved with nursing and doctoring and if one wants to discuss that touchy subject terms like "expire" and "coded" are used because most people don't know exactly what those terms allude to. It's tough talking about death, even in the medical world...

494 So this is what happened to Chris Dodd, he is now in charge of the MPAA.  New movie ratings will now cover the whole of the screen to explain exactly why Morons will like the movie - excessive amounts of gore and sex.  No word if the warnings will rival one of Ace's movie reviews.

511 Lefty Rag Salon: “Let’s Hope The Boston Marathon Bomber Is A White American”… Weasel Zippers: “White privilege is knowing that even if the bomber turns out to be white, no one will call for your group to be profiled as terrorists as a result, subjected to special screening or threatened with deportation,” writes author Tim Wise. “White privilege is knowing that if this bomber turns out to be white, the United States government will not bomb whatever corn field or mountain town or stale suburb from which said bomber came, just to ensure that others like him or her don’t get any ideas. And if he turns out to be a member of the Irish Republican Army we won’t bomb Dublin. And if he’s an Italian-American Catholic we won’t bomb the Vatican.” Remind me again how many white irish catholics were on those planes on 9/11?

654 Here is a moron factoid that I read somewhere today and stored in the vast wasteland of my mind:

"pumpernickel bread." So named by previous German morons, as "pumper" meant flatulent, and "nickel" meant devil or demon. Bread is named as it is, apparently, hard to digest. pumpernickel is described as the "devil's fart."
[Jug-eared Nickel comes to mind]

I was raised with brothers and their friends, and have sons. In my all-male amazingly flatulent world, I found this to be important and may conduct a scientific study with the males in my family when my anthropology study of WaPo in Mist is concluded.

689 Note to commenting novices: When referring to a previous message, do not rely upon the message number. When some innocent lurker gets his first-time post whacked troll comments are deleted, all messages move up one. (This is why the #2 comment is known as "a heartbeat away.") The proper procedure to refer to a previous message is to 1. copy the message link perma-URL hidden behind the message number, then 2. create a tiny URL from that, and 3. paste the tiny URL in the commenter URL field; 4. refer to your nic in the content of your message, 5. also copying and pasting the previous commenter's a) handle, b) date-time stamp, and c) parenthesized hashtag. If you'll observe, that's how all the oldtimers do it. It's because of all the harsh penalties if you don't. (I sure hope nobody takes this seriously.)

730 I am an occasional commenter who reads ( err lurks) when I lack the time to stay, read 700 comments, (if you can't start earlier) then start a conversation. I enjoy the posts and banter, but it takes time to get to know people, and that normally is easier in a smaller group. It is rather like shouting hello into a huge crowded party where everyone running about screaming and hanging from the chandeliers. Not a bad thing, and certainly fun to watch, but it does make it difficult to start a conversation

Posted by: Catseye at April 16, 2013 07:35 PM (c7wu3)

774 Still more of a lurker. By the time I see the threads they're pretty much burned out, so I end up conversing with the spambots.

776 I have to restrict myself to lurking. I'm too slow to ever make the top 10 list. Sven's tiara is safe from me.

777 By default I must lurk as I work overnight, sleep during the day and spend my evenings with my family.

778 I was a lurker since at least 2008. I know I started coming here in that election cycle. Only really posted recently and still feel like a lurker. I can provide references that I'm not psycho, or at least not in a bad way (Hi Dave!! See, I'm posting!!). I'm forced into lurkitude at work because one of my coworkers was hit with the ban hammer. He thought you all were overly sensitive. I'm pretty sure he earned it. Seems to block all IPs from my office now. Oh well, I guess it's for the best since technically I should be actually WORKING at work.

780 " I can provide references that I'm not psycho, or at least not in a bad way" I almost spewed a mouth full of shiraz over that one. There is no good way psycho, but there is good way moron-ette. Knitting comes next after you find me 22LR at a reasonable price. ;-)

783 It is definitely possible to be good psycho At work, we pool ammo orders to get a discount. Helps to be part of a large group of strong 2A supporters. I don't think banned coworker shoots. Maybe that's the problem...

785 De-lurked...aaaand...this is not terribly satisfying. Going back to lurking in 3...2...

Posted by: Travis at April 16, 2013 08:47 PM (HIV13)

786 Mostly I lurk.  Sometimes comment. Usually late.  Maybe one day I will be first.

787 772 Just got the nerve to poke my head out. Are there sammiches? I'am a basically a newbie here, but once I started reading the posts I jumped in like a fish wanting to breathe water. The down side is all the sammiches are spam, spam, spam, and not a drop of mayo or mustard in sight.

788

Am I a lurker if I post about once every six months?

 

I read the site every day. Without fail. Even at work. But, because I typically get home from work at about 1 a.m., I tend to miss (participating in) the good conversations on here. Sigh.

 

Anyway, even though I don't say much, I feel like I know you guys.

789 De-lurking in progress.

I post a comment once in a while. I type exactly 15 words. No more no.....

Posted by: Six at April 16, 2013 10:14 PM (gW5fI)

790 Delurking for the first time. Read the blog faithfully every day. Can't read in front of the hubby anymore. Can't always explain why I am crying from laughing so hard. You morons are the best! OK Back to lurking......

Posted by: Buckeye Katie at April 16, 2013 10:44 PM (1M/xn)

791 Ok. de-lurking first time I think (after at least 6 years here) to say "Howdy Morons" - ace, the cobs, and regular commenters - yall are awesome - this place is actually like my security blanket while I'm working over here in Africa... read all the posts every day, and at least one or two of the comment threads all the way through just to keep up with how everyone's doing.

794 83 I lurk.
Mostly because my stunning observations have usually already been made by someone else with much greater communication gifts.

And I'm still working on my crib sheet for the varied initials employed (JEF has me stumped) and trying to sort out what the sock references are... And I fear the Barrel

797 I've been a lurker since Bush/Kerry. Stop by for the articles, stay for the moron hobo horde of commenters. I chime in every now and then, but I like to watch. Makes me feel like a naughty girl...

I've made three comments in the three years I've been reading Ace. Which is weird because I'm usually pretty active in most communities I frequent.

Posted by: LongestSilence at April 17, 2013 04:44 AM (vrxSh)

801

Naturally, you tell us readers here in your fine establishment to identify themselves, and I'm only 13 hours late.

I comment very rarely, but that's because I work for a living! No seriously, I will make a comment every now and then, because most of the time, I'm reading all of the articles and associated comments.  How can I NOT lurk with so little time available?

Posted by: ICBMMan at April 17, 2013 05:11 AM (SRlAF)

802

I lurk; therefore I'm not.

I close my eyes while reading these posts. If I can't see you, then you can't see me.

Who ordered the breakfast tacos? What do I code it to?

They were good.

Used to Blog at "File it Under" and was always treated well by the Moron hoard, which meats that we kept the knife fights tetanus free. But I got a "big boy" job with a person of stature so now I must merely play in the shadows on the bum's bonfire and drink from the spittle left in the cast off bottles of valu-rite.

 In my experience, that whole fawn thing works the other way around.

 

 The ewok and moron horde get a little skittish whenever they accidently bump up against the truth... That happens when they're drinking too much cheap vodka.

810 I have been a moron in the mist for years, commenting only rarely and then retreating back into the forest.

I'm going back into the forest now, but one day I'll comment again.  Carry on.

Posted by: BrendaK at April 17, 2013 07:20 AM (J9FJX)

811 In case any of the still-lurking or recently de-lurked 'Ettes check back in: 'Ettes of the Moron Horde is a Ravelry group for Horde 'Ettes. Ravelry requires a free account and focuses on needlework, but the group itself is a general interest place to have another point of contact and learn from each other.

Posted by: Polliwog the 'Ette, assault Hobbit at April 17, 2013 07:21 AM (wbeNt)

812 Is it "lurking" to just come here and read shit? Or is there some special thing people are doing to be classified as such, like peeking in your window while you are posting, hiding naked in your shower, etc...

Because if it's the latter, then...well, I guess I AM a lurker.....

595 Anna, I knew about kikimora! I am a little more up on my Russian/Slavic folklore, partly from former co-workers and partly from Ilona Andres books.
