I like cookies. I’ll have a few cookies every now and then and they’re delicious. But one time I tried to eat a cookie as big as my head … I ate it for a good 30 to 40 minutes. That’s far too much time to eat a cookie not to mention I just stopped enjoying the cookie less than half way through and started to feel ill.

Point is no one can enjoy THAT much cookie. But everyone can enjoy a little cookie.

You’re right no one can enjoy that much cookie, but if for shits and giggles I decide to try and eat a cookie that big that should be my right. If others don’t like that big of a cookie they don’t have to watch me eat it.
I don’t even make parody threads, I’ve made 1 in the 4 years I’ve been here, but I think this shit is ridiculous. So the moderators are deciding what is an “interesting parody thread” or that parody threads all together don’t belong?? I personally don’t want another person deciding what is interesting or funny FOR ME and what isn’t. I would like to decide. There are threads in here that I post damn near 20 times in 1 page, then there are threads that I avoid all together. Guess what, I get to choose which threads I like, I don’t need a moderator to choose for me. This is bullshit[/quote]

loook man I already posed my idea on how we can “self-regulate” the parodies and they shot it down like the Germans over Pearl Harbor…

Good Day to You Sirs!

No one caved to anything on this. We just happen to think that for the most part these threads are a waste of space and detract from the site.

If there were any “caving,” it would be to allow such threads to continue due to the posts by a few members on this thread. [/quote]

???

We have a thread entitled Man Purse, but a parody thread “detracts” from the website?

We have the They rapin everybody thread, but a parody thread “detracts” from the website?

Really?

Is it just me or did nomoreforwear’s parody of this thread get deleted? [/quote]

FUCK YEA!!! YEA BITCH!!! It was deleted!! thank you mods!

this is like lebron james video being confiscated so know one would watch him getting dunked on. hopefully it doesn’t backfire on me. suck it,polo!
[/quote]

Here is nomoreforwear’s OP in his failed parody thread:

[quote]nomorewar wrote:
ok we get it. You came up to a cleveage party and thought it would be funny if you posted
cleavage pictures of another person’s ex.

these party trends are no longer fun. The only good one in the last couple of months was
steelyD’s penis party,and I only liked that one because it was about penises(can you blame me?)

BUt cereally, these party trends are now ghey.[/quote]

The response was strong and negative. DBCooper compared nomoreforwear to a dingleberry. Others remarked at how big a fail it was. Funny pics were posted by Wormwood among others. Lankey mentioned how people in this thread were making fun of him. It was pretty funny, although not in the way nomoreforwear had hoped. [/quote]

meh… no one will remember this post.

also… I fucking hate your avatars!!! they make my wanna fap everytime! well except big baby.
[/quote]

Yeah, you would want to fap to his original avatar (which I can’t find).
[/quote]

You remember my original avatar? [/quote]

Pretty sure it was a picture of…wait for it…Larry David.

Which explains why it makes nomorewar want to fap.

(Unless you had an avatar before I noticed you were even posting)[/quote]

haha, I’ve actually never had Larry David in my avatar. Although my first avy was of David Letterman, so your jab is stronger if anything [NO HOMO].

If the Mods are seriously going to start moderating GAL because they think certain threads are a waste then I’m not buying anymore supplements from this site.

Might seem immature, but I think this is bullshit and if thats the only bit of power I have to influence anything if at all on this site then I’m using it.

For the record I don’t even like 99% if parodys, I only bother reading parody threads created by people I know to be funny. ID, Vegita, ect. But I don’t like Mods telling me what’s funny and what’s not even more.

Agreed. This type of forum is the ultimate meritocracy. Popular threads get posts and stay near the top, bad threads die. There is no need to remove threads. Possibly relocate them to get them better traffic if they have been mistakenly put in the wrong part of the forum. Yes remove comments or pics that are in breach of the rules. But no need to kill threads artificially. Natural selection takes care of that for us.

^ lol, I was reading my quote thinking, “I didn’t say that”.

Kinda placed your post in the wrong spot there.

there will come a time when we can all parody again. it’s just gotten out of hand. until then, we can all find different ways to amuse ourselves.

x2

I can understanding T-Nation censoring stuff that unfairly attacks their products, they have to protect their business. But censoring the Get A Life forum is complete horseshit.

By the way, if the mods are going to censor what’s not funny enough, they might as well ban nomorewar.

I kinda agree with Vegita on this one. Sure a lot of the parody threads are stupid as hell, but so are a lot of the actual threads in GAL.

EDIT: Not that I care too much one way or the other, I’m probably not going to get up in arms about this.

Where is LowfatMatt? Are you going to stand idly by while the evil Mod Brian destroys the GAL forum?

now that is funny.

seriously though, no one will care in 2 months. I hate censorship too, but life will go on, i promise.

Testing testing!

looks like I’m not completely banned from TNation, but most of my posts aren’t showing up anymore.

Vegita, you still able to post?

I’m here.

You definitely did have LD as an avatar, I’m sure of it!

And as far as the whole censorship issue, that’s not what I was asking for but I suppose if you all need a pariah, I’m your man. I certainly don’t care one way or the other and I’m surprised anyone is getting their panties in a bunch about this.

Hey AndrewG - you gonna friend request me with that new account of yours?

And V - I told you my powers on T-Nation are untouchable, bitch!

yeah, seriously V, i thought this shit was below your pay grade?

you don’t need parody threads to rake in the lulz.
