Cencorship in a new age

I scoured YouBoob to find it. I need a good laugh this day!

[luv2fly]

I can't find it. Maybe it has been removed or my google search skills need polishing. I too need a laugh!

I really don't think it's too hard to conform to the rules set forth here. They aren't hard to comply with at all.

Then again, this is the internet and common sense occasionally gets tossed out the window.

Complaining about a ban on YouTube is hilariously stupid. Have to look for that after work.

...poor post on my behalf. I have looked all over and I cannot find it. I am hoping that someone will send it to me. I am wondering if Rob once more draws the communist conspiracist label again...

[JamesNYC]

I could tell without opening the thread that it was going to be about politics, and didn't bother.

People are simply too hyped up about politics, and there is no more middle ground.

Let me read about cigars, booze or food!

Greg removed it yesterday. It was on the FOH Youtube account.

I have a printed copy for entertainment value

... not looking to pick at scabs my friend, just looking to add a little humor to the day!!! Enjoying life certainly starts with being able to laugh at yourself when it is funny and sometimes when you think it is not... The next step is of course laughing at your mates!

Cheers, my friend! -Ray

Rob's house, Rob's rules. As simple as that.

Sometimes it's hard not to say bad things about some things and some people but I admit this is the best way to keep FOH being the best cigar community.

Mods,

Can we leave a couple of the most entertai... I mean offensive threads posted as a sort of "How not to do it" example?

I kid. I like poking the bear and inciting hate speech as much as the next leftist, but I also like this forum and don't want to be the **** in the punchbowl.

I know you kid

If we have to teach people how to behave, then they are not the people we want here.

Which is why this is the classiest cigar forum on the net! 3 cheers for self-moderation!

It certainly was self-moderation at its best. There were three reports to moderators before I closed it down.

4 trev. i also sent one to rob, but he ignored that on the basis that it was probably just me trying to ruin his weekend.

i fail to see why he thought that the two things were mutually exclusive

Dearest ken,

You generally incriminate yourself by sending an e-mail while I am fishing or otherwise spending time with my kids on a weekend.

I always text you "Don't engage"

You always text me "Too late"

[Ken Gargett]

dear hop-along,

have you ever thought that the only reason you get emails then is because you have abandoned your post and someone has to step in? it is a thankless job. mind you, the amount of time you are off fishing....

i would also suggest a new dictionary - one with the correct definition of 'always'. 'often', i would have accepted. 'always' is a tad harsh.

and may i ask just where in the rules it said one was not allowed to 'amend' posts? is there anything more perfidious than retroactive legislation? a slippery slope, indeed.

Don't push me.

Johnnie Cochran had an easier run in defending OJ Simpson than I have had in defending you. He only had to do it once.

Absolutely priceless! Way beyond laughing an ass off!!! This is Thursday humor at it's best! PLEASE, more!

so you are comparing yourself with the man who defended OJ, snoop dog, michael jackson, marion jones, puff daddy et al?

but then, how hard is it to defend an innocent man?

In your case...."the glove fit"

[Ken Gargett]

In your case...."the glove fit"

you are aware that there is a strong belief amongst some, and of course, i would have no idea as to the veracity of this, that cochran tampered with the glove prior to OJ attempting to put it on.

perhaps your analogy was more apt than i thought.

There is much lawyer in you yet KenKanobi

Your powers were but a little overused. Let us see if you have learned anything in your impending "second (and last) coming".

i am, of course, at your beck and call, though the saving humanity lurk is not as much fun as you'd think. i rather enjoyed being one of the people. still, i am, as ever, prepared to make the ultimate sacrifice.
