That's a really cute video. I like how the parent's weren't immediately like "ah don't touch it!"

When I was six, a deer got hit near our house by a car. There was a fawn that wasn't hit, and it wandered around for around a week after that. It was really friendly, and would let us pet it in our yard. On my sixth birthday, it even wandered up into the patio where we were having my party (no mean feat, as there were stairs up to that), and wandered around, looking at things. Best, birthday, ever.

Why just wear a T-shirt when you can wear a magazine!

Quote

News + graphic t-shirt = T-post, the world’s first wearable magazine. All subscribers receive a new t-shirt, or "issue" as we like to call it, every five weeks. News story printed on the inside. Graphic interpretation printed on the front. All around conversation piece.

Emphasis mine.

I think Jeph just pops in once in a while, looks around, and is generally disgusted. Not about anything in particular. It's always seemed to me that he finds the whole thing ridiculous. Forums full of people brought together (initially anyway) by their fandom of his web comic.

He banned a guy in QCD. I had in fact just PMed Ben to ask him to ban the guy; I guess Jeph had looked in following a message being reported to the mods. He had some interesting ideas, but from time to time went way over the top in argument and got abrasive and personal as well. I had been trying to rehabilitate him, but failed.

That silly, silly man! He should know better than to visit QCD. In fact, he does know better, and has commented on it before.

I know, it's a morbid, masochistic curiosity that he cannot control. I can't really blame him. But I do.

(Paul, I'm sure you realize that despite my tone, I have the utmost respect for the guy. But really, this isn't the first time.)

OTOH it's been six months since the last time he saw the need to step in.

Many people may not want to discuss the comic, but for those who do, QCD is reasonably sanitary these days. However, I suspect that Jeph, like many creative types, would really rather that it wasn't discussed at all, ever - but given that discussion would be likely to appear somewhere, by providing the forum he has at least a vestige of control over it.

benji · « **Reply #889 on:** 12 May 2011, 08:44 »

From what I saw in that thread, it wasn't the content of the guy's posts so much as the sheer contempt he showed for those who disagreed with him. Such bans have happened in most forums here at one point or another.

In general, the QCD board has gotten pretty sane recently from what I can tell in my occasional lurks there. Which is mostly to say, good job Paul and Is It Cold In Here. You two have made quite a difference in a short period.

pwhodges · « **Reply #890 on:** 12 May 2011, 08:47 »

The reason I didn't get the guy banned months ago was simply that his contributions were intelligent and interesting while he kept the lid on his bad behaviour - but sadly in the end he just couldn't.

Damn, that long already? I guess a couple times a year isn't that bad. I just have no sense of time passing.

Also, I agree that some latitude can be granted to someone who otherwise posts intelligently and contributes positively to the discussion, but if the balance shifts too much the other way, bye-bye!
