- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).

Welcome to the club. You have seen this user once, you will now start seeing them once a month. I've seen them write interesting answers but was so annoyed but the dumb symbol that now I just resort to annoy them whenever I see them and I encourage people to do the same.
Someone told me that they do it to poison AI data, which not only does not work, but also what is the point of harming the bots by also harming the humans?
If herpes was a person.
I continue to read those letters as "p" 😭
Also, for poisoning AI: something better would be using more acronyms because we understand them but AI sometimes just get confused
Yeah but that would require him to be intelligent. He has proven repeatedly. He is not very smart.
I hope they block you, you sound like a miserable person.
Maybe that came off miserable. I'm not like obsessed. I just go about my day and the few times I find them i find it funny and bother them a little.
Of would be healthy for them to block me, but I hope instead they just stop it, because they actually say interesting things, and you can see how they just get a lot of down votes because they are annoying everyone. It's basically spam
Oh; like an elementary-school bully. Cool.
No. A bully literally goes out of their way to attack people. They go find their victims because they want to do that.
I'm just passing by and do something they can 100% just ignore. However, looking at the army of down votes that hit all of their comments, I suspect I'm not the only one annoyed. Their posts are like getting a spam call. You can ignore them or you can have a little fun with the spammers
Look, we obviously disagree and I think we'll continue to do so and I'd prefer to part amicably so I say this less to start a discussion and more just my personal opinion: I feel like, if you explained to an elementary school teacher that your behavior, actually, was different because you're not going out of your way to bother your classmate, just whenever you bumped into them…such a distinction won't mean much to them and your teacher's still going to end up calling your parents because of your behavior.
Kind of. If i told the teacher "they were bothering me so i decided to bother them", both our parents would get called. Neither of us is innocent. They didn't " bump into me" by accident. They do it on purpose and everybody is asking them to stop. So they really can't complain.
I'm fine with disagreeing. I just don't like feeling that it ended with me failing to express my poi t of view properly. If I did explain it correctly and you disagree, that is fine by me
That's entirely fair; I'm the same way.
I think the major difference (to me) is you're putting typing words that they write for their own comments (of which you can easily ignore or block) on par with someone going out of their way to push you. It doesn't really allow for any kind of plurality and sort of puts just annoying you on the level of personally targeting you for annoyance which feels like a major false equivalence. If simply commenting in a public space in the way they desire constitutes bothering you in a specific way, it feels on par with me feeling entitled to annoy people who spell "color" as "colour" just because it bothers me (it doesn't, actually, but for the sake of example). It feels much more targeted than them targeting you.
Welp. I'm satisfied. I think their commenting on other peoples post is as bad as my commenting on their comments. I think we have gotten our points across and I'm happy to agree to disagree.
Thanks for you patience. And I mean that honestly
Fair; I think you're right and agree to disagree.
And of course; I appreciate yours, as well.
