WTF invades The New Coffee Room; a hypothetical

It is the year 2030 and Paula Abdula, newly elected president of WTF, invades the New Coffee Room to depose its leaders for failure to determine the sexual orientation of each of its members in a highly organized, well-documented, 22.5-year research program.

Many threads are destroyed, sockpuppets run amock, and unhappy civil war breaks out amongst the general population.


How would *you* feel if this happened to *you*?

That is pretty much what goes on here already.

There is a line we cross when we go from "I will believe it when I see it" to "I will see it when I believe it".

We welcome invaders but if they become regulars they are part of the family.

but now the TNCR has been liberated from the tyrannical right and no other members will feel oppressed and they will be able to express their thoughts without fear of reprisal and abuse- you see it's a humanitarian thing! :sombrero:

Nothing is as effective as homeopathy.

I'd rather listen to an hour of Abba than an hour of The Beatles.

The problem with having an open mind is that people keep trying to put things in it.
