So, is it just me, or does this Trump-Russia thing look like it might be going… nowhere? So, all reports from the Flynn story are saying that Trump directed Flynn to talk with Russian officials during the transition. That’s might different than during the election—and during the election is probably worse than during the transition. Sure, you can cite the Logan Act, but barely anybody’s been prosecuted for that, and it would only fuel the GOP’s talking point of a witch hunt. It seems that Trump Jr. was very eager to collude during the campaign—but there’s no evidence of it going to the top, which is good for Trump.

I’m just not seeing a clear link between Russia and Trump that’s serious enough to warrant a crime. I think the obstruction of justice possibilities are more founded than the collusion stuff, but the House wouldn’t impeach based on that alone.

I don’t know. I really just don’t know here.

No fun allowed, Frink.

Well it’s not entirely hand oriented.

Warb’s now had a harsh finger wagging from the powers that be, and I think we can all leave it under the bridge. Er… in the water. Or however that saying works.

JEDIT- Water Under The Bridge! (looked it up)

I first misread this as “Warbler Under the Bridge”.

Ah, the Chili Peppers’ hard-to-find follow up song to Under The Bridge 😉

Heh, good one.

But their logo is a cow!

Yep. 502 Bad Gateway.

I would never want to be a Bruce.

Like it says on the xkcd about page:

It’s not actually an acronym. It’s just a word with no phonetic pronunciation – a treasured and carefully-guarded point in the space of four-character strings.

Also, from this very thread on July 8, 2016:

Public Service Announcement

In light of the many incorrect capitalizations of my username, I have created a capitalization guide:

• My username should never be put in ALL CAPS, as in YHWX
• The first letter should never be capitalized, as in Yhwx, even at the beginning of a sentence

As a consequence of these two rules, the only acceptable form of my name is ‘yhwx’. No exceptions. That is the only way.

---

ADDENDUM: The correct order of letters in my username is this: y, then h, then w, then x. No exceptions to this either.

For those of you who have a username that’s not particularly pronounceable - like yhwx - how do you say it/hear it in your head? For example, yhwx, when I see your username, I read it as “Why-wicks.”

There is no standard pronunciation — the username was randomly generated. It was supposed to be like xckd. If I were to say it aloud, I would spell out the letters, as in “y-h-w-x,” but you can choose a personal pronunciation.

Same goes for those of you with long or compound usernames. Do you use a chunk of it, like I do for my own username (“Ash”)? Do you initial-ize it, like I do with moviefreakedmind (“MFM”)?

It’s all in the name. If there is a nice-looking and short initialism, I would use that. If it’s two words joined together, whichever is the more appealing word is what I would use.

I believe it’s super moon night tonight.

JEDIT: Nevermind.

I am not lying here.

There was no malicious intent when I bumped a certain thread a few hours ago.

This is one-hundred percent the truth. I think y’all would trust me enough to know that I am telling the truth. The current controversy was not even running through my head. I was looking through this thread, where it is linked to. I thought that post that I made might be funny. I am not lying here. Again,

This is, to the best of my knowledge, the truth as I know it.

So we just need 214 more movie threads and we’re there?

On it.

That’s the spirit.

The Wikipedia donation drive has gotten really annoying this time around.

It wasn’t even supposed to relate to the whole *sigh* controversy.

OK.

I think that too.
