When I was 14 I had to ban ex-Megadeth guitarist Jeff Young from my forum because he wouldn't stop calling everyone a "douche canoe" and destroying the vibes.

You can tell who did and who did not moderate IRC/phpBB/whatever back in the day, because all of us who did learned the true shape of online group culture: your culture is the shittiest person you don't ban

I'm pretty sure a stint on the contraption would fix my back

Yesterday I got blocked in a freeway exit because a driverless Waymo stopped in the middle of a busy 5 way intersection, blocking some lanes. Who do I honk at? Fuck these things.

also, tell me the rules before I even type it out!!

How about you tell me my password doesn't meet your arcane requirements when I enter it, instead of letting me fill out the entire page and hitting submit.

It costs like $20 to get one that you can install between the toilet and the seat. The only downside is the disappointment when you have to poop anywhere else.

apropos of nothing it's wild to me that any time i extoll the virtues of owning a bidet, invariably there's at least one person who is very insistent that they WANT to have a dirty ass like a peasant from a medieval ages and is appalled that i would even SUGGEST they wash themselves better. grow up!
