You know the rules: no popcorn questions.

OP didn't state a position, just asked a question intended to provoke argument.

Thank you for the PSA, Sent.

I will now kindly demonstrate what a proper debate looks like by posing this question:

Which is superior, a fox or a box?

I would argue that foxes are superior, in that while boxes are strictly cubical, we foxes are an abstract shape. We are also orange. Try to find an orange box.

I'm just going to casually leave this here.

I don't know where you were raised, but I was always told its what's on the inside that counts. So the box got a bad spray tan? So what! It has a chocolate cake!

Chocolate is poisonous to foxes, you...anti-fox...person.

Clearly, sir, I am a cat. And cats are anti-everything.

Hey, NightBirdBlue already swore feline allegiance to the fox cause, back when Chris threatened to hit me with a car.

Hm. I suppose I like foxes more than people who run over them in cars. How about we call a truce and give the cake to a fox-hunting dog?

Fair enough.

When did this become more beautiful than this?

First link is bad, man.

That's not orange; that's reddish-yellow.

I feel sad for whoever bought team fortress for the xbox.

They have team fortress on the Xbox?

Why yes they do!

Here's a screenshot of an actual Xbox TF2 server!

Now all we're waiting on is the crickets chirping.

No contest. Boxes are useful, for holding or organizing things. You'd have to skin a fox and sew the fur into a pouch or something to even remotely approach that level of functionality, and even then foxes are small enough you wouldn't wind up with very much space for all your trouble.

But boxes don't eat rodents or make for cute videos when two of them get on a trampoline together or fall asleep on a Facebook employee's car hood.

Ridiculously poor moderation. You guys are now just deleting anything where there's potential for disagreement under the guise of "no popcorn threads". 

What if one of us was to create a thread about literal popcorn?

You'd better fucking hope nobody dislikes popcorn, or it gets deleted. 

I'm guessing that would be fine as long as you stated an opinion on the popcorn in the OP, and the thread wasn't just intentionally designed to start a flame war. Just like I'm sure it'd also be possible to make a thread asking opinions about trolls, or grumpy capybaras, without actually being one.

^_^

Malky, if I were that horrible of a moderator, I'd delete your whining.  Or change your posts to be about something ridiculous.  Like sandwiches.

Miz is completely correct.  That thread was gone because OP broke the rules.  

In fact, I deliberately made this thread so that if ppl wanted to continue their discussion, they could.  All you have to do is state a position. 

"Or change your posts to be about something ridiculous.  Like sandwiches."

Please senty, take this cookies.

These cookies should run the country. They'd do a better job than anyone we'd otherwise be voting for. That's my position, that I'm stating.

Why does sentinel get cookies? 

And why do they keep responding to you as Sentinel? I find that strange...

Lol, started thinking of sandwiches and got confused.

Since this thread isn't really going anywhere anyway, Sethaniel, I've been wanting to ask, how and why are you listed as the co author to a Warrior Cats story??

The important question is why he stays the co-author.

Sorry, didn't see this til just now.

Serious answer: that author, out of all the WC fans, actually accepted the constructive parts of all those critical comments.  She added me so I could check spelling/grammar & help with link restrictions.

Why I'm *still* coauthor: Laziness.  Also I have . . . let me check. . . 47 unpublished storygames.

47? Wow, and I thought I was bad. Even counting my outlines in Twine, you still win this one. :D

James Coker, Fox Party, 2016

"We have foxes!"

Whenever I see you name I think of James Crooker.

Than of Crooker.

Than Of Crooker's remix of day n night.

Than I do a little dance.

Do a little dance.

Make a little love.

Get down tonight.

Still hoping Cruz manages to steal Trump's delagates. Kinda worried though. Cruz seems to be trying yo kill off Rubio (which is fair game, Rubio tries to kill Ted in Texas) by stopping him from a chance at beating trump in Florida. Which means two things. One, Cruz doesn't want a contested convention and B) Cruz thinks he can beat Trump in blue/purple states if hes last man standing. 

Not sure I buy B. A I get. Contested Comvention works for Establishment candidate, not hated by everyone candidate. But does Cruz seriously believe that he can beat Trump mano el mano? While Florida is marco's endgame, we need to see what happens March 5. Closed Cacus in the few remaining evangelical states. People have been saying that Trump does best in Open Primaries, where dems and indies can vote as well (and Dems have been under represened in their primaries, getting much less voters this year). Trump has only won one closed primary, Cruz won the other three (by close margin in Alaska tho). 

Winner takes all states are gonna be tough though. Hoping trumpmentum is culled before then. Praying for the best ha ha. 

Might actually consider buying the biggest gun allowed in Texas and flinging a few rounds at Trump if he gets elected and visits.

Enjoy GTMO.

Huh. Wonder how many lists you just got put on.

Oh yeah awesome night for Ted Cruz. Crushed it in Kentucky, looks like an easy win in Maine, wondering about everywhere else atm. Could this be the change this season has been begging for?!

trumpsupporters did you guys watch the debate in Michigan? Trump backtracked from h1b1 visas saying that we need more foreign workers. Are you sure this is the guy you want as the anti-immigrant candidate? Come on guys. Hes not even trying to hide it anymore!
