You really think you’re something huh? Strutting up and down the site like a cartoon dictator. Your insolence and sanctimonious self-righteousness knows no bounds. You’re a real fucking genius, huh? Glory be to UlyssesT, the holy moral authority of Hexbear Dot Net. You’re almost like the Confucius of Hexbear - trite bullshit disguised as sage wisdom and mindlessly quoted and repeated by the rest of the braindead tailist flock. Your “morality” is nothing more than a Nazi kangaroo court, you fascist fuck. You think you’re a philosopher? You’re nothing more than a Confucian-Hitlerian manchild.

    Wrecker: Well, frankly, I never liked Hexbear posters. They remind me of Regulan bloodworms.

    [the reactionaries laugh]

    Brave Poster: That cossack!

    Mod: Easy, lad. You ought to be more forgiving.

    Wrecker: Though... I just remembered. There is one Hexbear Poster who doesn't remind me of a Regulan bloodworm. That's @UlyssesT . A Regulan bloodworm is soft, and shapeless. But @UlyssesT isn't soft. @UlyssesT may be a swaggering, overbearing, tin-plated dictator with delusions of godhood. But he's not soft.

    Mod: [as BP gets up] Take it easy, lad. Everybody is entitled to an opinion.

    [BP sits down]

    Wrecker: That's right. And if I think that @UlyssesT is a Denebian slime devil, well, that's my opinion, too.

    Mod: [as BP gets up again] Don't do it, mister, and that's an order.

    BP: But you heard what he called the MegaPoster!

    Mod: Forget it. It's not worth fighting for. We're big enough to take a few insults.

    [swaps BPs empty glass with another]

    Mod: Now, drink your drink.

    [BP sits down and obliges]

    Wrecker: Of course, I'd say that @UlyssesT deserves his ship. We like Hexbear. We, we really do! That sagging, old rust bucket is designed like a garbage scow.

    [Mod's ears perk up]

    Wrecker: Half the quadrant knows it; that's why they're learning to speak exclusively in slurs!

    Bp: [outraged] Mods plz!

    Mod: [to Wrecker]Laddie... don't ya think you should... rephrase that?

    Wrecker: [in Scottish brogue] You're right. I should.

    Wrecker: [normal voice] I didn't mean to say that Hexbear should be hauling garbage. I meant to say that it should be hauled away AS garbage!

    [Wrecker laughs. Mod stands up, decks him, and a brawl ensues]

      :warf-wtf: Those wrecker alts are Hexbear posters. And it is a long story.

      :what: What happened? Some kind of social engineering?

      :sus-soviet: A cognitohazard?

      :warf-wtf: We do not discuss it with outsiders.

      We just teleported their posts to the dunk tank, where there'll be no redacted at all

          Although I like ds9 more, it is impossible to resist the weird charm of the original series. With $2.30 and some of the cornices actors available, they made some of the best TV so far. And also many other episodes.

            TV of that time just makes me happy they managed to put on a little show for broadcast. That was a task on its own, Twilight Zone and Trek really raised the bar.
