So, uh have the Lowtax judgments started? I thought there was a competition to see who would get the privilege of banning/probing the Lowtax account.

Lowtax posted:

So I can't make fun of a small group of people who were actively and personally insulting me, because they're trans and that's an attack on the ENTIRE community? I made it absolutely crystal clear, repeatedly, that I was not speaking about all trans people. I do not believe that I shouldn't be able to make fun of a small group of people who are making GBS threads on me on my own forums, just because they are trans. I didn't go on any mass banning spree in that thread. Why am I unable to mock people making GBS threads on me just because they're a small part of a marginalized community? I said nothing bad about the community itself, just that group of people, and I think I should be allowed to voice my opinions on a youtube chat channel about people personally insulting me, regardless of their gender or sexuality or race or whatever. It's not me judging and condemning an entire group of people, and there's absolutely no argument that could convince me I was speaking about the entire trans community, and that makes me transphobic.

Yeah, now that you mention it he only lists store income, not ads.

I assume there are ads beyond what people buy in the store, anything else is blocked on my browser.

Either way the whole "the forums actually cost me money" narrative that Lowtax would always throw out whenever he wanted a handout has finally been confirmed as most likely untrue. I mean, basically everyone figured it was a lie anyways but it's nice seeing it confirmed.

I think there's a big distinction between talking like that to kids/animals and other adults. If someone baby talks at me in real life I'd probably take it as an insult to my intelligence. Telling a dog "Ahhh googoogoogoo, you have such a scrunchy facey-facey face!" is different than saying "me haz to go potty :(" while we're having drinks at a bar.

I had an employee once who would constantly say she had to "go potty" but I broke her of it by constantly replying "potty, why is it ya birthday or somethin?" or shouting "P O T T. WHY?!? CAUSE YOU GOTTA poo poo." In closing I think I would be a great fit for your company moving forward.

I said they were lame and then when people started telling me thinking sea shanties were lame was somehow being cruel to people stuck in covid infested countries despite that being nothing to do with why I think they are lame I tried to derail the meme thread with a throwaway comment about how sea shanties were actually racist so I can't say I haven't earned this. I unbookmarked the thread as soon as I did it because I'm a piece of poo poo and I can only assume I succeeded and have earned this bad av that made me turn off avatars entirely

Huh, I'm not exactly sure what a "scupper" or "hosepipe bottom" is but none of those things seem like they would help a drunken sailor. I'm starting to think all these suggestions are, in fact, practical jokes.
