TOSS violation)...*** And 'The Truck' ad

This abbreviation should be banned. It makes me think of someone with a stutter and that is a slight on a minority group and that is not politically correct and SI would not want to be in that camp. Say what?

***'Tough shhh shhhit' violation. Don't be one or we'll oust you. So like if we use profanity or engage in any type flame they get to get rid of our sorry asses and save on the megabitespace while no longer carrying our info after we have ponied up our 'lifetime' membership dues. Sounds like maybe they have too much power. Sounds like not a lot is happening with ATHM and this fotter is all we have to graze upon.

Hey, David, I think you need to call IR for @home and TELL THEM that you have the perfect slogan for them...

BACK UP THE TRUCK!

Announcer with a heavy voice, slowly with dramatic pause:

'When you have a shitload of stuff to download back up to our connection.
Your life
will never be the same
again.
The heavy mover...@HOME!
Back up the truck.'

I was discussing black holes. Wasn't I?

Regarding the metric man (assuming the poster is a man).

Apparently he enjoys enticing other posters to flame him and then reports them to SI. I've received several PM's with that warning. I conclude that nothing meaningful can emerge from discussions with this person.
