Guess she can't recognize dedication and perseverance.
And she calls US stupid.
Tempers flare. The Marines are big on Esprit de Corps.
So are we. This was like an Army - Navy throw down in a bar. OUR BAR.
It's over. At least "it's over if she doesn't swing at us again."
Getting into a bar brawl with us can do nothing to enhance her career.
>one of whom has since been identified as the head of security for the church, Jack Wilson, 71.
Hey Millennials … it was a boomer who got things done. KEKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!
English much? Srsly … does this guy draw a paycheck for that illiteracy?
At first I was like "WTF!" and then settled back down to watch it play out. it was fairly predictable … Anons can cause an immediate spike in views on the order of 300k over a fairly short time (anecdotal from a small sample a few days ago). Christian hinted at the flood he was getting (I didn't go there to look). Some of the less temperate ones will leave intemperate comments, many others will not have a Twitter account and be unable to post. ALL OF WHICH CAN BE MEASURED. This incident could serve as a proxy for a poll about how strongly Anons feel about the whole movement thingy. Sociologists / statistics people got a big chunk of data in a very short window of time to ruminate over. In parts of the world, it is already afternoon on New Years Eve. In other parts of the world, it's very early New Years morning. This should be a fairly quiet time for us.
I don't know that anyone was provoking us in order to check the response or not, but if not they certainly missed a good opportunity.
If you ask Anons to take a poll, you'll get very little in the way of response (note how many polls we've been asked to take part in recently). But if you piss them off, I suspect you would get a lot more participation.
Anyone making an analytical study of this place already knows its norms and are probably able to assign value to deviations from it.
Interesting. I think we were just tested. By whom, I can't even guess. But tested nonetheless. Jessie and Christian were not on our radar at all until an hour or so ago. Their introduction was sudden and attention grabbing. Yup … pretty confident we just got played.
At the time, we were chewing over whether it was some version of AI but it was demonstrated how it could be done manually by holding multiple screens open. HE / IT moves when the baker does. If we didn't have a variety of bakers, I would think that it WAS the baker doing it. But we do, so it isn't. IS it done that way? I'm not sure it matters. If nothing else, it's taunting us to code around the graphics. And THAT is well outside my wheelhouse.
That's a bubble wand. The bubbles act as a lens.
If things are as you say, then she's doing the "Stolen valor" thing.
