... even if I had to steal it from A Secondhand Conjecture.
There are a lot of folks--including liberals, conservatives, libertarians and everything else--who visit Delawareliberal and ... get handled a little more roughly than they expected. Sometimes they go overboard and ban somebody, which I think is not a good thing--but what the hell it's their blog.
Anyway, when they're running true to form, this would be the best summation of their standard:
OK jason, geek, dv, pandora, cassandra, nemski, and DD--did I nail it successfully?

Anyway, when they're running true to form, this would be the best summation of their standard:
If you expect to come here, spout idiotic opinions, write poorly, or just otherwise make an ass of yourself, don’t expect to be mollycoddled. If you are not smart, not funny, or simply don’t add to the collective discourse, you will be beaten like a Russian bride and sent on your way.
This is not quashing dissent. This is the cold boot of failure kicking you straight between the eyes. Just because the American educational system has taught you that everybody is a winner, and that you have some twisted right to have your opinion not only heard, but respected, doesn’t make it true.
Frankly, some of you need to be told that, objectively, you suck. And if you do, it will happen here. You have been warned.”

Which is more than ironic since they comprise the vast majority of DL blog posts ...
write poorly
Egad. Jason and DV, for starters, could give a grammar teacher a coronary.
or just otherwise make an ass of yourself
You mean like relishing in the illnesses/deaths of conservatives? Like referring to your political opposites as "evil?"
Yeah Steve, I think you covered it quite well.
Rats, you blew my game. Now I'll never get them to comment.
And yes, Jason and DV give me coronaries with their grammar. Half the time I edit, and the other half I just drink.
Yes. You nailed it.
Jason
One of these days, though, you'll grow the f*** up and become a man.
And Hube is an “adult” who reads comic books. Need I saw more?
