If I start vocalizing my wish for members of Westboro Baptist Church to die by means of repeated forcible bison sodomy will I get banned?

Or do people only get banned for making distasteful comments about well known individuals that are popular?

Having been on the other side of their picket line and yelling similar things at them, my guess is no. They should all die in an eternal hellfire.

Here's a thought, if an individual has an issue why not contact a mod or admin directly? They're all on the same team and concerns can then be relayed to the rest via the person the issue was presented to. Easy peasy

Now for a real problem. My burrito fell apart.

Different final drive would be helpful as well.

If you post up something you know is distasteful, you risk either having it edited or deleted. The frequency of these incidents usually result in more severe reprecussions in an effort to curtail the behavior.

New photo project assigned in class. Recreate a scene from a movie or TV show in a series of 6-10 photos with our group of three, we decided on scene(s) from Dexter. Probably do one of his kills from start to finish, should be a nice project. I get to be Dexter

I've come to a realization with my recent suspension issues... Since the rear is much lower now I was considering just slamming the car, even after I get new coilovers. However, I was still at a toss up because I bought this car for its handling. While it's fun driving low and slow, it's not fun in the Miata because I can't enjoy it's naturally great handling. I never get tired of driving the car spirited thru windy back roads, but I do get tired of clenching my butthole while driving over bumps and potholes.

So the plan now is to order new coilovers and raise it back to a more functional height and make it a "handling machine" . I figure if I want a low and slow car I'll get something cheap that I wouldn't be tempted to make fast/handle better and just lower that to the ground.

Back on dry land after 3 1/2 months ashore. The A/C in my hotel room smells like wet dog. But, I'm near the water (and it's hot as hell outside). Been awake since 0300, think I'll take a nap.
