Huh. I bet somebody is getting banned.

And by somebody, I mean you, MrMoonPie.

Uh.. did you look at the comments? He wasn't calling the guy a shit weasel, he was noting that the guy's comments seem to be following a certain trend. Probably some adolescent joke.

Seems to have come from the Salon article on Stephen King linked in the Feb 19th post:

"Dreamcatcher" features "shit-weasels" who grow in victims' stomachs, then -- after the victim suffers prolonged and odiferous farting -- eat their way out of the victims' anuses.

Everyone's got their own fascinations, I guess.

zempf, i'm assuming that "the guy" you refer to is me. What trend do my comments follow?

Aaaaugh!

BlueTrain: i think zempf was talking about nagchampa, not you.
posted by modge at 3:47 PM on February 21, 2002

To further clarify...

zempf, I read the comments, and was joking around. A pretty bad joke, evidently. I just thought it'd be funny if MrMoonPie was banned for pointing this out. Ha ha. Ok, yeah, it sucked.

I do actually think nagchampa will be banned.

Wow, the plethora of takeoffs on that just fried my brain.

Are you calling me a liar, jpoulos? You damn sh*t weasel!

The plot thickens.

I just received an anonymous email (from www.davidstill.org) that contained the following message:

fuck you, shitweasel.

Welcome to the club, Doug. I got one a few weeks ago that said I was an ugly c*nt. Or something.
posted by mr_crash_davis at 6:10 PM on February 21, 2002

That was from me. It's a term of endearment, doncha know.
posted by Optamystic at 6:35 PM on February 21, 2002

And I didn't get you anything! How callous of me.
posted by mr_crash_davis at 7:06 PM on February 21, 2002

Yeah? I dare that coward to send something like that to me.

doug-I just received an anonymous email

crashdavis- I got one a few weeks ago that said I was an ugly c*nt.

Someone named "spidernat666" AIM'ed me about 2 weeks ago and wanted to jabber about how "canada sux" and said they had found me at "that olympic site-metafilter." Bizarre.

Is someone stalking the MeFi detention club?
posted by jonmc at 7:17 PM on February 21, 2002

I've had someone show up at my blog a few times and call me 'evil and ugly', 'a metafilter snob' and assorted other endearments, in the comments threads, and near as I can tell from the times and the referrers, they came directly from my profile here.

'Course I am evil and ugly, so it's all good.

I don't think that's quite cricket.

posted by rebeccablood at 7:44 PM on February 21, 2002

I think I've had one e-mail EVER about something I've said on MeFi.

Maybe I'm not saying the right things.

It takes two clicks to find your email address, Neale. Way too much work.
posted by mr_crash_davis at 7:54 PM on February 21, 2002

Man, you throw down the gauntlet and...

Half a dozen dirty emails. And who told you that about my mom? That was years ago. People experiment in college.

...dammit.

Hell, even I wore army boots then.

What?
posted by Neale at 8:35 PM on February 21, 2002

Why you... I got one very nasty email from you, Neale. And I sent one nasty one back. Well I now apologize because we're both the same kind of shit weasels nobody every writes nasty emails to. Talk about exclusion! So, if I send you one, will you promise to send one to me too? ;)

Oh please let it be some "morning zoo" reference that nobody gets.

Shit, distractions, distractions, distractions! Now I forgot to bill skallas for the ream of Screenwipes and the gallon of Kleen Q.

Oh it's like that, is it? Well then, here's my little hommage to Neale's famous 1142 thread.
posted by MiguelCardoso at 10:06 AM on February 22, 2002

Ha. Say that in MetaFilter. I dare ya!
posted by ColdChef at 10:17 AM on February 22, 2002

You want me banned so that you can have me all to yourself. Which of course you could have done anyway, months ago, if you hadn't proposed to...that...woman!
posted by MiguelCardoso at 11:15 AM on February 22, 2002

You just REFUSE to post in MetaFilter! Miguel, you can't keep that perfect 1142 forever. You must learn to let go. Much like I've let our relationship go...
posted by ColdChef at 10:01 PM on February 22, 2002

Ah, I see now that perfection was fleeting...well, it was a lovely milestone. Even if you and I were the only ones that noticed it.
posted by ColdChef at 8:42 AM on February 23, 2002

Damn I was actually waiting for someone to start a pool to see how long Miguel would restrain himself for posting to MeFi and thereby keeping that magical 1142 comment number.
posted by riffola at 9:07 AM on February 23, 2002

Oh yeah? Look, Riffola, at how long it took ColdChef to reply - eleven hours and forty-two minutes, 11:42. Well, almost. In the old days, when he still could bear me, it would have been seven or eight hours max.(Well, he never liked me much - just the idea of love, perhaps...).

No, I did try, but Chuck Jones died. :(
