Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

[Warpiglet-7]

Information overload, man. As a society, we're drowning in a quagmire of vid-clips, e-mail, and sound bites. We can't absorb it all. There's only one sane solution: blow it up!

Like do all the coke so you can keep up?

from the article's survey "Additionally, about 12% of respondents say they are polite out of fear of future consequences."

This is basically Roko's Basilisk only somehow less stupid.

Not related to the above.

It's always so disappointing to see people you admire talk up people you despise. It never results in thinking better of the person you despise. But it always results in thinking worse of the person you admire.

I have the added layer of complexity of being related to those admirable people you mention.

That thing where there is only one post on a new thread page and it is by someone you have on ignore, so it just looks like a blank page.

Just checked in on one of those threads (you know the ones). I have my settings configured to show me 20 posts per page and there were only 3 visible to me. Yep, glad I'm not following that thread.

I guess the question is, are one or two people you have on block dominating that page of the thread or do you have half of ENWorld blocked?

I haven't had more than 2 people blocked, ever, as I strictly use it situationally. I did see 1 or 2 posts per page occasionally, back then.

I do have more people on my ignore list these days. I find there are some people who get on my nerves a lot faster now than, oh, say, a decade ago before ... <waves his hands around at "all this">
