2. CALL CONGRESS RIGHT FUCKING NOW!!!!

or, what?

[marym625]

4. What do we say?

[uppityperson]

5. It is a DU meme from many years ago. That was posted as an OP with nothing else, leading to

as you say "what do we say" comments. It was funny at the time and pops up regularly as a reply.

[marym625]

6. Thanks

I appreciate the history. I didn't know.

But, I was joking

[marym625]

3. I'm so confused

[WillyT]

8. Was Wondering If Somebody Was Having A Meltdown In GR...

[sibelian]

[Blue_Tires]

41. You could have just asked me directly, man to man...

But I know that isn't your style...

At least I know who alerted on me...

[sibelian]

43. Well, it wasn't ME.

So there.

[WillyT]

48. Man To Man... I... Didn't Alert On You...

Pointed out the mass postings, yes... but no alerts.

[NutmegYankee]

7. Heh, reading that forum might make the Putinistas perform seppuku to make it stop.

[WillyT]

13. LOL !!!

Just concerned... that is all.

[Cirque du So-What]

34. I'd be satisfied

if he performed Sudoku. Might keep him busy for awhile.

[malokvale77]

52. Best reply.

That's supposed to say, "good afternoon WillyT." If it says "you wear ugly shoes" or such instead, I'm sorry. Internet translations aren't very dependable.

[bluesbassman]

17. How does one even do that?

I think my browser would crash. 'Course I'm still on a TRS 80.

[sibelian]

18. "Why Russia is Very Nasty"

blah blah blah

[sibelian]

19. "Russia, the Very Bad Thing"

[sibelian]

I HATED IT

[sibelian]

22. "Why Russia is Very Bad"

Because of stuff

[sibelian]

23. "Russia - Could it Get Any Worse?"

no.

[sibelian]

24. "Russia and It's Spreading Yuckiness - A Retrospective"

man that place sucks

[marym625]

38. LMFAO!

Oh my god that's hilarious!

[sibelian]

44. "RUSSIA - Land of Infinite Existential Woe"

where even happiness is unpleasant

(actually that's probably scarily close to how Russia actually sees itself)

[marym625]

46. I watched Exporting Raymond last night

You could be right

[sibelian]

25. "Why Did God Let Russia Happen?"

Because he's a jerk

[sibelian]

26. "People In Russia - Why They Are So Very Ugly"

(it's because they're Russian)

[sibelian]

27. "It's Official - Russia is Generally Sub-Par"

says important man

[sibelian]

28. "Russian Shit Smells Worse than American Shit"

[sibelian]

31. yaddayadda

[sibelian]

32. #Ihavetoomuchsparetime

[Bobbie Jo]

58. You mean the OP?

If so, I agree.

I mean, why go looking for stuff like this and then post a cryptic "concern" thread in the middle of GD?

#Ihavetoomuchsparetime

Yup.

[sibelian]

33. actually I did a whoooooole bunch of HRC threads in one go

a while back, which was possibly a bit rude

[Blue_In_AK]

36. Wow, that's a lot

and I think I might have just made the wrong choice on a jury. Oh well, I can't get them ALL right.

[sibelian]

37. H'looooooo

Gone a bit strange round here lately....

[Blue_In_AK]

39. Whew, I was on the (barely) winning side of that vote.

Republicans would say I was the deciding vote.

[Blue_Tires]

40. You mean this guy?

http://www.democraticunderground.com/~-..__...

He's now posting on an alt account, iirc...

[sibelian]

42. !

well played...

[hifiguy]

45. IIRC DU has spamming rules.

Which definitely seem to apply here. Time for a time out, I think.

[sibelian]

49. well that's me screwed then

can I plead ironic piss-taking? ooops

[hifiguy]

51. I meant the linked stuff.

All the Russia stuff looks like spam to me.

No probs with you, sibelian!

[sibelian]

55. Phew!

(I wasn't lying about my "Hilary Clinton - International Lady of DARKNESS!" spamming. I did do it. It probably was a bit off.)

[malokvale77]

57. Your posts in this thread...

have cracked me up.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

[sibelian]

59. No, thank YOU dear sir/ma'am

[MineralMan]

53. Alerts, not callouts, please.

Use alerts to call attention to such things. Cryptic posts in GD for stuff in another forum don't help, I think.

[WillyT]

54. I Mentioned No Names... Just Wondered If Something Weird Was Going On... Plus...

How would one alert on such a situation... specifically ???

[MineralMan]

56. Yes, I saw what you did.

Hence my comment. Try ATA, if you don't think alerts will work. A callout doesn't have to mention a name to be a callout. You know that, too. Those posts were all different in content. There's no rule on DU prohibiting multiple posts, each with different content.

You said you didn't alert, and can't think of anything to alert on. My suggestion in that case is to do nothing at all. Cryptic callouts are not the answer. I can't see how it matters that someone posted several different stories in the Good Reads forum.

My suggestion is to either alert, if you think there are grounds for an alert, or just leave it alone. Just a suggestion. Many people on DU post multiple posts daily.

Just a suggestion, of course.
