Sorry. I think I may have a low tolerance for "sacking" because it reminds me of a particular breed of douche I went to college with for the first couple of years.

did they sing all-male choral music in 2-part to 10-part arrangements, too? because if so, I was also one of those douches ;_;

Naw, trust me. Nothing like 'em.

djp, a very specific type of douche

so everyone has noticed that Mordy's "death of the author" comment was pretty much pro-WCC in that it's a ref to separating textual content from the original author's intent? Like, no implications to the original author.
Kind of killing me that it was basically putting forth an argument that the thread contents were in no way indicative of the originator's train of thought, and it was taken the exact opposite way

I'm mostly just scared for this author Mordy apparently plans to murder.
― Burgled Hams (Old Lunch), Friday, 19 October 2012 20:33 (eleven years ago) link
just because an author dies doesnt mean its murder, it could be an accident hint hint
― --bob marley (lag∞n), Friday, 19 October 2012 20:35 (eleven years ago) link
is that a threat?
― Anime Mann (diamonddave85), Friday, 19 October 2012 20:38 (eleven years ago) link
what's great is that in intepreting mordy's comments as being threatening, that's some reverse death of the author shit

i think that WCC's characterization of Mordy as "mansplaining" originated in a number of other threads, and as a result of past behavior, she interpreted his behavior in the button thread as following that pattern.
― sarahell, Friday, 19 October 2012 20:59 (eleven years ago) link
past interactions do color one's perceptions of current interactions, right? that is a pretty common phenomenon?
― sarahell, Friday, 19 October 2012 21:01 (eleven years ago) link
I don't know that it necessarily completely erodes reading comprehension, though.
― Burgled Hams (Old Lunch), Friday, 19 October 2012 21:01 (eleven years ago) link
all of our posts are independent works of art that should be read w/o consideration of the author's behavior
― iatee, Friday, 19 October 2012 21:04 (eleven years ago) link
at least thats how I approach ilx
^that post gets a 5.2
― racewar driver (k3vin k.), Friday, 19 October 2012 21:07 (eleven years ago) link
and i hope that all the lols at WCC's misunderstanding of Mordy's death of the author reference aren't of the "omg she is crazy and stupid" variety, and are more of the, "what a disaster for communication!" type, because the former comes across as a bit smug and snobby imo
― sarahell, Friday, 19 October 2012 21:13 (eleven years ago) link
i put it more in the category of 'seeing what you want to'

probably had something to do with the unique mordy-colored glasses she was wearing ie everything he says is mansplaining/etc
― set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 19 October 2012 21:16 (eleven years ago) link
forgets to take those glasses off sometimes
― --bob marley (lag∞n), Friday, 19 October 2012 21:17 (eleven years ago) link
all the lols at WCC's misunderstanding of Mordy's death of the author reference
it was an extreme example of how ~everything~ is about her
― mookieproof, Friday, 19 October 2012 21:18 (eleven years ago) link
fyi the first post on my fb feed today was a link to a mansplaining tumblr
― sarahell, Friday, 19 October 2012 21:18 (eleven years ago) link
did we make it?
― terrell sug (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 19 October 2012 21:19 (eleven years ago) link
no, it was not by an ilxor, though the person who posted it is friends with a couple other ilxors, none of whom were involved in this recent incident or threads about it
― sarahell, Friday, 19 October 2012 21:20 (eleven years ago) link
you see sarah tumblr is a little bit of a social network a little bit a blog, kind of like blogspot crossed w/facebook, do you get it now
― --bob marley (lag∞n), Friday, 19 October 2012 21:20 (eleven years ago) link
wish i could travel back in time 10 years and casually drop the phrase "mansplaining tumblr" into a conversation
― congratulations (n/a), Friday, 19 October 2012 21:20 (eleven years ago) link
xp - you are one of the most consistently funny posters, dude.

I would add iPad to that sentence too.
― she started dancing to that (Finefinemusic), Friday, 19 October 2012 21:27 (eleven years ago) link
iPad still makes me think of a personalized menstrual product tbh
― sarahell, Friday, 19 October 2012 21:30 (eleven years ago) link
well you see sarah, an iPad is not really personalized
― 乒乓, Friday, 19 October 2012 21:32 (eleven years ago) link
you can get your menstrual product engraved fyi
― mookieproof, Friday, 19 October 2012 21:33 (eleven years ago) link

ilxors should be tempbanned for lots of things. temp bans aren't used enough.
― congratulations (n/a), Friday, 19 October 2012 21:44 (eleven years ago) link
it's three days away from ilx, it's not a big deal
― congratulations (n/a), Friday, 19 October 2012 21:45 (eleven years ago) link
to summarize, mods should be tempbanning people on a daily basis
― congratulations (n/a), Friday, 19 October 2012 21:46 (eleven years ago) link
random ilx holiday for u! you could be a winner
