Even modern-ish cars that have a transponder key which looks like a "normal key" can cost over $100 to replicate, even without a key fob.

Which state is it where the only thing preventing you from open carrying a tank cannon is your ability to physically carry it?

Everybody Poops by Tarō Gomi

Yes, but this isn't it. This is just a screen cap of an average British morning show interview with him, since the election is tomorrow.

Oh, certainly not. I move with the grace and elegance of Wile E Coyote hastily throwing a kitchen knife that cleaves a rope bridge in half, dropping me into a canyon (but only after I look down)

Literally a corpse dragon that farts and pukes effluvium.

Okay, you lost me here. Farting and puking effluvium is a distinctly feminine trait.

The point of rule 8 is explicitly and in no uncertain terms to weed out dreck, shit, garbage. Low quality bait, weird anonymous bigots, bad bespoke twitter opinions, etc. The dunk tank is a place for us to post garbage takes with the goal of deconstructing the brainworms or at least having some fun laughing at a moron. There is no shortage of bad posts on the internet, but just because you saw it doesn't mean that we have to as well. The dunk tank is a place where we can punch up together, rather than all of us getting riled up every time one of us sees one of the billion bad posts launched daily into the digital void by random morons.

If you'd like to continue getting mad at random internet strangers, you're invited to subscribe to /c/shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml or just reply to the bad comments you see on other sites directly with your dunks.

Posting isn't praxis, nor does it need to be. You can quit JAQing off and "begging for an explanation" now.

It's pretty clear at this point that no amount of explanation is going to be sufficient for you given the way you've continued to antagonize both moderators and everyone else who has tried to clarify the situation to you in this and previous threads.

The dedicated comm has already been determined to be /c/shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml as it's an already existing community and it also helps foster increased interactions between Hexbear and Lemmygrad.

The disaffected rule 8 posters already have an alternative space available to them, those that refuse to use it for some reason don't somehow gain the right to post their content elsewhere just because they're frustrated with the rules.

The slop trough is open right now at /c/shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

I encourage you and everyone else disappointed by rule 8 to subscribe there.

Yes, absolutely. Dunk tank content removed under rule 8 (and even before it was formalised) is always some random irrelevant take posted by a nobody with no platform, of which there are literally hundreds of millions on the internet. I think the most notable posting we've ever even had to actually think about whether rule 8 applies is some small time twitch streamer with under 1000 followers who posted something racist on twitter.

The goal of rule 8 is and has always been to limit the absolute dogshit takes that random bluesky accounts nobody's heard of, shitty YouTube commenters, or bad Facebook posts made by some random guy you used to work with 5 years ago.

The intention is to allow for the picking apart of posts made by people with a reasonably large platform or even vague association with the levers of power, without having to wade an endless supply of boring bad takes from nobodies in order to find something worth dunking on.

The rule has been explained multiple times, your disagreement with the rule does not make it unclear.

How do you look at a guy who acts and styles himself like that and not have "pedophile" ever enter your mind when thinking about him?
