The unfair banning competition and the fallout that came out of it is pretty much the primary reason I don't really post in SE++ anymore.
Even though I didn't "win", my petulant behaviour towards the entire proceedings managed to engorge the hate-boners of the people who didn't like me far more than they already were, and it just made people who didn't dislike me before jump on the bandwagon.

The guy in the next cube over regularly digs his own grave in conversations with people that drop by. It's painful to listen to.
I want to get a little rope ladder to throw over the wall when things start to get especially bad.
Give us an example!
Usually it's something really technical where he takes a position that's not easily defended before thinking things through.
Once though, my boss dropped by and asked him if he was working hard. Just like a joking "hey, workin' hard?". But apparently he was not and he was reading the news and launched into a big defensive speech about how he was just taking a short break. To which my boss immediately said "how many breaks do you typically take"? You can imagine where things went from there.

I wouldn't mind a ban-by-popular-vote system, as long as we were never allowed to post about it.
Ask Pony how that goes.
I voted in that thread, TFS was banned and Pony wasn't. So I assume he'd say "pretty good"?
Actually the unfair banning competition was a terrible idea. It basically just created bandwagons of hatred that didn't need to exist. It was terrible for the community and poisonous to the atmosphere of SE++.
I was actually sort of annoyed with being included in the whole thing against my will so I wrote a colossal asshole post, because I figured I might as well go out with a bang. I didn't figure I'd win anyway (I always figured Tube would win, I was surprised when TFS did and Tube came second) so I decided to take the opportunity to shake my dick at the haters.
This, in hindsight, proved to be a bad choice.
Oboro lobbied for people to vote for teefs
it was one of the more unfortunate social dynamics I have ever witnessed
I still pop in 2112 and moving pictures from time to time
My girlfriend hates Rush. Well, technically she hates Geddy Lee. She has a no-Geddy rule.
Rush songs are okay as long as they're instrumentals. So I could put on YYZ or whatever if I wanted to.
I haven't had the itch in years, though. I never deliberately listen to Rush anymore. But if I'm in a bar or something and Spirit of the Radio comes on the jukebox... I will admit to quietly enjoying it.
every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.
the "no true scotch man" fallacy.

Not always. The unfair banning competition was the perfect examplar of Tubes admin style. Though I can't say it was better before tube. He just brought his own style in with him.
edit: meant to say better there

Deebaseron my way to work in a suit and a tieAhhhh...come on fucking guyRegistered Userregular
Can I use like...an oven tray to cook on a stove? Or pretty much only a pot/pan?
I'm such a noob cooker.
You could technically, I'd avoid it. Just cook it in the oven? With meat especially because you can cook unevenly and get food poisoning and shit like that.
i guess you never saw the numerous threads she derailed and dramabombed, or the numerous threads she derailed with her incessant love for talking about how much she loved black dudes, or the awful and catty things she did, or her passive-aggressive posting that was so prevalent it became a forum meme
Forum meme? Enlighten me?
not a doctor, not a lawyer, examples I use may not be fully researched so don't take out of context plz, don't @ me
i am pro zeppelins as long as i can get the led out

RentI'm always rightFuckin' deal with itRegistered Userregular
i mean seriously it is not possible to communicate with mlp fans. they are in their own deluded bubble which ignores objective reality so they can just yell angrily at anyone who leverages even the slightest criticism of their children's television show
and the worst part is is even when there's no criticism, they go out of their way to tell other people who don't give a fuck how awesome the show is and rub it in and post really fucking stupid pony specific image macros and make Inside Jokes In All Caps and ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Oboro lobbied for people to vote for teefs
it was one of the more unfortunate social dynamics I have ever witnessed
I remember that.
When TFS started to transition, Oboro tried really hard to invite her to Sisterhood of the Travelling Yaya Pants
Like TFS started posting about transitioning and Oboro was like "OH HEY SISTER LET ME GIVE YOU ALL THIS ADVICE ON BEING TRANS" and TFS was like
who are you
go away
I didn't ask for your advice
then TFS learned more about Oboro's special kind of personality and was even more horrified
so, Oboro turned into a catty bitch and turned on TFS for not wanting to be her Trans-Sith Apprentice
it was really bizarre. I actually felt bad for TFS, publicly admitting to being trans is hard enough (especially to a community that knew you before that and still uses masculine pronouns about you) but then when one of the first responses from a transperson in that community is someone like Oboro.
yowza.

I mean ... in theory, yes.
But burners and pots/pans are both circular shape for a reason.
The reason being that using a baking tray, you'll have no idea how far/evenly the heat radiates, and you'll also look silly.
But I mean, if you had no other choice, and just wanted cooked something in your face, then ... yes, this is a thing that can be done! :P
