from FB, would love to know how true it is ... "30% of Republican primary voters nationally say they support bombing Agrabah" -- nm* - Count Zorku Dec 21, 07:48 11
- We've discussed on here. Yes, it's true but similar numbers of Democrats have said the same thing in the past. - spamlet Dec 21, 07:50 10
  - What I don't understand is why use a fictional country at all? Asking if people want to bomb Saudi Arabia just as revealing of ignorance and hate. -- nm - mara Dec 21, 08:07 6
    - because people would see through "How many of you just want to bomb someone brown?" -- nm - Reagen Dec 21, 08:10 1
      - This, well, some would. -- nm - Count Zorku Dec 21, 08:12
    - Because the results would be bad for the relationship with Saudi Arabia (or whichever real country you use) - who's scruffy-looking? Dec 21, 08:09
    - I disagree, though. A reason to hate is one thing, no reason is another. -- nm - Spawn Solo Dec 21, 08:09
    - Well, using a fake country exposes ignorance instead of just hatred. -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 21, 08:08 1
      - right, in theory the question is designed to expose low-information voters - ML Dec 21, 08:12
  - to 2) of course. -- nm - Reagen Dec 21, 08:02 1
    - You have a kid(s). By default that means you've been exposed to those movies *scores* of times - Count Zorku Dec 21, 08:10
  - 1) That's why you need to rotate or randomise questions in a survey. 2) Hell, no. - Count Zorku Dec 21, 07:52
LIR: Maybe there should be a "mark as spoiler" thing similar to the NSFW one -- nm - Count Zorku Dec 21, 07:45 3
- I spent about an hour implementing the feature - as far as new features go, that's super fast. - Beryllium Dec 21, 07:48 2
  - Currently, does it implement if the word is in the post - Count Zorku Dec 21, 07:49 1
    - Has to be the subject. And it doesn't currently conceal link text. -- nm - Beryllium Dec 21, 07:59
Loved me some Star Wars, but there is one thing bugging me (spoils) - Qui-Gonn Jim Dec 21, 07:43 7
- Real life parallel (no spoils in IM - but it would give away Jim's spoils) - who's scruffy-looking? Dec 21, 08:20
- I was wondering that too. -- nm - R2-Deev2 Dec 21, 07:55
- This was one of the things that I was left (enjoyably) wondering about afterwards. (spoils) -- (edited) - ewokicripple Dec 21, 07:54

  - ""We will be hitting them because we are trying to make services like them [prevent] these sort of attacks, so they get stronger." -- nm - mara Dec 21, 07:55 3
    - So you're going to do it when everybody is off work for half the week? I only have Madden and Destiny right now, neither of which work w/o xbox live. -- nm - ewokicripple Dec 21, 07:56 2
      - I get the logic of that actually, especially around xmas as that is when people are setting up new accounts, etc. - Truman Dec 21, 08:00 1
        
        Right. If this sort of thing is going to have any effect, its effect is greater the more disruptive it is. -- nm - mara Dec 21, 08:08
- Don't they do that every Christmas? :) -- nm - Beryllium Dec 21, 07:49

- SWTFA spoilers - Spawn Solo Dec 21, 07:44 2
  - TFA more spoilers - Obi-Wan Kilobi Dec 21, 07:52 1
    - I like your last thought as it... - Mel Profit Dec 21, 08:06
- also Spawn, I will say that Rey is better looking in the movie than she is in real life. - Groindo (Green lives matter) Dec 21, 07:41 3
  - I liked her on Graham Norton but I will agree. -- nm - Spawn Solo Dec 21, 07:51 1
    - I was too busy looking at Carrie Fishers dog. nm -- nm - Groindo (Green lives matter) Dec 21, 08:02
  - This. But the accent... -- nm - spamlet Dec 21, 07:46
- Using TFA in the subject line would be helpful. Just saying. -- nm - mara Dec 21, 07:37 4
  - fixed (sorry) - I guess I kinda assume that Rey was enough of a key and everything this week that's spoilers is TFA -- nm - Obi-Wan Kilobi Dec 21, 07:38 3
    - I wouldn't have been sure that it wasn't some sports thing since I don't know all that many athlete/coach names -- nm - Count Zorku Dec 21, 07:44 1
      - well, to be fair, he did post it to Spawn, and all you nosy fuckers clicked on it. nm -- nm - Groindo (Green lives matter) Dec 21, 07:46
    - Valid points, but some of them have been joke posts; and on the last board, there were Martian spoils, although I realize they were pretty obviously - mara Dec 21, 07:41
