1. No. My life is too boring.
I never run across anything that controversial. :(

19. For your amusement....
Subject: Your ignorance re Remington 700 rifles.

From: "TREVOR D P********" <pr4mnce***@email.msn.com>

Dear Web designer:

Your ignorance of the Remington 700 Titanium model shows in the distasteful graphic:



It's obvious that you are alluding to the shootings in Maryland.
The actual caliber and type of rifle used have not been conclusively determined. (emphasis mine)

This model of Remington rifle is NOT available in the caliber purportedly used in
the recent shootings in Maryland.
In other words, the .223 Remington cartridge is NOT available in the rifle you
pictured.
The rifle you pictured is NOT and can NOT be the type used in the shootings.

See for yourself at Remington's site, specifically the page about the Titanium model
700:
http://www.remington.com/firearms/centerfire/fi_700tul.htm

You don't have a clue about firearms, do you?
You don't have a clue about what is tasteful or tactful in reporting a story, let
alone the Facts or Truth.
Your ignorant sensationalism is beyond description, yet typical of those that have
an agenda to stigmatize firearms and their owners.

Just wanted you to know how off the mark you were in your portrayal of an ongoing
crime that has not been solved...yet.
Thank you for the opportunity to express my opinion. You certainly have expressed
yours.

Sincerely,

Trevor etc etc

11. Called Condi a bad name!
They thought it was sexist, but it has several meanings & the one I was going for was "unscrupulous." For some reason they didn't buy that. I wonder if they'd have felt it was sexist had I used it to describe a male cabinet member.

We all make the occasional mistake. For example, back when the poll feature was new, I started a poll on "When did you stop beating your wife?" It was gone in a flash.

Looking back on it, it WAS rather tasteless....

20. Yes. Once
Edited on Fri Nov-19-04 05:13 PM by slutticus
I posted a link to a site that shall not be named. At the time, I didn't know it was forbidden.

It was gone in the blink of an eye.

Oh...and also...I posted a question in ATA about it, and that one dissapeared too!

I became beligerent. That was the last time I ever posted while intoxicated.

23. Controversial, no, but...
...I was recently in flagrant violation of the no sex threads rule. It was a copycat, and I couldn't resist the joke. Sorry mods!

24. Yes.
I posted something from the Rude Pundit blog about "Rape a Republican for Jesus," and it disappeared within a matter of seconds.

I officially rock. I guess.

Edited on Fri Nov-19-04 10:55 PM by sans qualia
It was one of those idiotic "Ann Coulter is a man" threads. Anyway I alerted the mods on it and then it just disappeared.

32. No, but I've been the last to post in a number, which makes me
feel somewhat guilty.
