Social Scott Adams (Dilbert Creator) RIP

[Darkballs]

Let me explain:

No one is dumb enough to believe that's real.

Boom! Well done.

Nevermind.

RIP based noticer

 

[Stoic1]

I think you missed the point of my post, I made a comment because I knew you spent your entire day camping this thread like a loser and you just proved my point.

Did you, uh, say some disparaging remarks about the deceased Mr. Kirk?

Apparently, you are.

Apparently, you are.

You forgot to add the last line:

The Washington Post finally settled on "Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, extremist leader of Islamic State, dies at 48."

Guess that was an accident. You weren't deliberately trying to mislead a bunch a stupid trumpers, were you? Or did you just not read it yourself?

Yes, yes, you are. Another L for our LOLyer.

Sorry I caught your lie.

 

[Prefect]

Have you heard him speak?

He was a lunatic.

I think he was either autistic or a psychopath. Great comic but void of anything that makes a human being a human. I throw autism out there as how I heard him logically justify his racism and was proud of that logic. Like do you think people are tuning in so they can listen to you talk about how you want nothing to do with black people?

 

[Xanzito]

Sorry I caught your lie.

Lie? Lmao, i posted a link to it. They changed after backlash, but that was the headline, wasn't it?
Just take your L, eat your crow, and be a good lolcow.

 

[Darkballs]

Lie? Lmao, i posted a link to it. They changed after backlash, but that was the headline, wasn't it?

Nope.

The first version of the Washington Post's headline called Baghdadi "terrorist-in-chief".


Then they changed it to the one you were butthurt about, and then they settled on a third one. So not in any way the secret liberal bias you were complaining about.

But by all means, lets have anyone who wants to read the article and see for themselves.

If he said that then he is a separatist which is racist imo. Like Katt Williams said, if you’re still a racist in 2025 you’re an idiot.

I’m paraphrasing. I forget the exact verbiage he used

Yeah, I'm no psychologist but he sounded off.

It made me sad because I loved his stuff for years.

 

[Loiosh]

Hilarious the only poster I've ever seen here admit they are a racist has a problem with someone cause they are a racist.

Are you talking about the fact I've said I believe everyone is racist to some degree and it's a function of the fact we're tribal?

 

[Loiosh]

Pretty much everyone I engage with in here is probably “hateful” on some level. It’s just the internet dude. Funny insults and light flaming comes with the territory

Not going to lie, this place has seriously fucked me up.

I started off in the heavies but after a number of years I got tired of it. Some friends lured me to the Berry and I spent years there.

Then the pandemic hit and I was alone in my apartment indefinitely.

I had avoided the WR for years because it's obviously toxic but during the pandemic it seemed like the best place for news, and here I am five years later, it's the only place I post. It's been a terrible five years (I've lost several friends and family members including my mother for whom I had to enforce a DNR) and this place is not where I should be.

It’s toxic no doubt. A lot of people can’t handle it. So many bans this year

Sorry for your losses

The "logic" was a small poll that had like 15 black respondents.

I thought that he was trolling until he doubled down on it.

 

[Batjester]

Loved Dilbert and had many of his comic strips cut out of the newspaper (remember those?). DGAF about his politics or whatever, dude was funny and brought laughs to cubical life. RIP.

This is great example of why the news is dead. Because having the facts isn't beholden to ink anymore.....lies and misinformation don't cost a dime anymore. It can be edited as much as needed to suit any narrative.

Thanks internet.

 

[Yoricks Wisdom]

never heard of him.
