30 minutes, and they only seem to attract the attention of 3 or 4 people. That's dedication!

That's dedication!
I'm not sure that's the word I'd use; I was thinking of something a little less, um, complimentary.

Metaphor, schmetaphor...
As to philosophical "we wanted a truck and you are giving us a car" concerns, those I can't resolve, just explain the rationale for. If you disagree with that rationale, that's fine, it's like two different religions that have to coexist somehow.

Gin and tonic
I love the gin and tonic... My gut, not so much anymore
Anyhoo... here's my favorite microbrewery: Flat Earth Brewery.I know one of the owners, it's a nice brewery.
And my favorite there:

So, how did the chocolate taste testing go man?
I still haven't gotten around to actually doing it. Maybe next weekend.

what do you guys thinkI think the probability of him raising a happy family is approximately 0.

He did say that he lives in Oklahoma.

He did say that he lives in Oklahoma.
I assume that's intended to mean that he'll probably fail because he's a hick living in a hick state. Regardless of whether that's true, anyone who starts a family under those circumstances and with that attitude is almost certain to fail in many areas.
-
As a parent; he lacks the necessary maturity.
-
Financially; kids are expensive, and he hasn't finished school.
-
As a boyfriend/husband/partner; that sort of trickery does not encourage the kind of trust necessary for a relationship that lasts long enough to raise a family.
-
As a man, because he's a slimeball.
-
As a future parent; if his girlfriend finds out he did that on purpose, she just might deprive him of the ability to reproduce again. I hope so.

Darwin award candidate?

Not if the plan works.

Actually, that's why it may work.

Darwin award candidate?
Seems unlikely to pass the Uncommon Excellence test. Self-Selection also seems doubtful. Although his removal from the gene pool would be an indirect result of his own action, the actual removal would be the result of his girlfriend's action.
Not if the plan works.
Not a disqualification1,2.

I see Discourse is still around..

#HE'S BACK!!!!11!1!ย

So.. is the old forum still running, too? We should spin up an instance of PHPBB, just so we'll have three turds in the air at once.
-
I've missed seeing that byline:

It is, but it's very, very quiet. Only an occasional post every few days. Mostly by Nagesh.

But Nagesh loved Intercourse!
-
Yeah. Not sure what happened; he just disappeared.
Also, that could have multiple meanings; someone registered the name Intercourse here, and is a fairly active participant.
Very quick summary of a few interesting happenings while you were gone:
The Dicsores crew has left us to our own devices. @sam pops in very occasionally, but Jeff has disappeared entirely. They no longer follow the bug topics here; bugs must now be reported over at meta.d. They retain, however, admin priviledges, should they need to "fix" anything here.
Jeff's stupidity and assholery are running rampant over on meta.d. All of us who have accounts there (not me) use Burns as avatars. (Initially, all the same one; that seriously pissed some people off!) Jeff deletes posts that disagree with him, and suspended @Matches for calling him on it.
Still an average of around one new bug filed each day. Jeff still insists v1.0 is immanent. Most topics still veer off into Dicsores bashing eventually.
-
Don't forget that every comment produces a new bug.
-
"Burns avatars"?
On the bright side, you have Blakeyrat back!
What does Alex Pompadourmillous think about Jeff's reaction to real-world bug reports?
-
What the hell do you mean by "bright" in that sentence?
-
Hey, Blakey is a national treasure. Not necessarily our nation, but maybe one of the crap ones like Bangladesh or France.
I do not recognize your name.. were you on the old forums?
-
For 4 posts. I was a front-page commenter.
-
*draws machete* We don't take kindly to front-pagers 'round here..
-
"Burns avatars"?
On (I think) meta.d...
We all used the same graphic for avatars and they changed us back to the defaults and Sam made a post that you can't use identical avatars because that's a barrier to recognition.
So now we all use different pictures of Mr Burns.
-
:draws GAU-8:
we kinda rule.
-
Pfft.. that's not a GAU-8. This is a GAU-8!

I see you've played GAU-8-y spoonie before.

That's a right bloody outrage, it is! I'm taking this straight to the Prime Minister!

well son of a bitch, it came back

Do I know you?

XSS award!? I was the first WTFer to XSS Intercourse! That prize is rightfully mine!! *attacks screen with screwdriver to pry the award off*
-
You have that badge too, if you went to the preferences screen
-
@PJH, can we get a "where's my burrito?" award/badge?
-
And you probably wouldn't remember me, I only posted maybe 25 times over 6+ years on CS because I only posted on-topic in the sidebar section only. Which is why I only had 25 posts.
Now with dicsourse, everything is on topic because the topic is always what we or they broke in dicsourse today, so I can post tons.
-
Huh.. Knowing that I already have it makes it meaningless to me. Strange.
-
Huh, I only see 4 posts for you on Community Server. Then again, that means nothing, since CS is terrible.
-
Considering you had it within 24 hours.
Well, 24 hours plus however long before @PJH created the badges.I had to wait a long and lonely wait because I got a late start. Fortunately they opened an XSS with a piss-poor quick-patch they did to fix a merely annoying css/clickjacking exploit of mine and they turned it into an XSS exploit instead
-
Oh - i think darkmatter was taken. I am pretty sure I was darkmattar on CS.
-
58 posts in 6.5 years apparently
-
Ohhhh, I think I recognize you.
I like that your XSS came from a shitty, slapdash fix.
