Crap. That was really stupid. Please ignore.

I, too, felt that posting about a Thurmond's death without even bothering to wait for a link was pretty chintzy.

Me fail Metafilter? That's unpossible!

So let's see - linkless post and obituaryfilter all in one(although the latter seems to pass without comment these days)? Off with his head!

While we're on the subject, I was especially amused by "I don't even know if this merits a MeFi post, but my web server is down and I had to put the story up somewhere."

Rule of thumb: if you have any doubts whatsoever about posting something, DON'T.

This comment pretends to take the previous poster to task, but is in fact more an advertisement of the poster's own self-perceived clevern...oh, fuck it. It's been done.

Posted counterintuitively as an answer to a perceived problem of an appalling pus bucket of self-indulgence. Very subtle approach: spread the effect by lowering the dosage and upping the times of ingestion.
