It's shit. It's annoying. Anyone who uses it needs to hang themselves.

I have no problem with it.  It's interesting, from a sociological standpoint, observing that moment when a line or joke becomes bigger than itself.

Crisps?

Should be replaced/#REPLACED by appropriate classic cancelleds, which will also efficiently convey the offence, eg. #GLITTERED, #NEESONED, #BAKERED.

While your card is in the post for being so detachedly 'interested' by it, consider that it's another entitled infantile means of dismissing anyone without recourse to detail, fairness, context or truth. I don't think it's harmless.

It's the new version of 'talk to the hand', except with the added insistence that someone be permanently removed from the world due to some nebulous judgement on an infraction of any magnitude.

I agree with all this.  I was talking with more of an eye on the aesthetics of the General forum.  The multiple threads don't bother me.

I think I've been doing a mental coin-flip on what stance I decide to take on every one of these sorts of threads this morning, when I could easily have vehemently gone with the opposite side.  Which is another reason why I'd agree with you.  We assume everything everyone says is an outpouring of their very soul, when my Tuesday self might well come to blows with my Thursday self while defending my Sunday self's honour.  We can be so much fucking richer than that one work-in-progress opinion.

No, the rape case has been opened up again. The one which everyone knew about already. Never mind the details, HA HA CANCELLED I SAID CANCELLED

(That's the satirical point you're making right?)
