Yknow, the hamster talk reminds me of the time I got a firsthand demonstration of why even religious private schools need more regulation.
So the school I was subjected to, like a lot of small private schools, teachers would teach multiple subjects. My algebra 2 teacher was also the Biology "teacher". So there were ferrets, gerbils, hamsters, and an iguana in her room. This one day, she decided that since the ferrets had always been in captivity, they wouldn't have hunting instincts.
Me, being the only person sensible enough to realize that about 2/3s of the school's approved biology book was more like a bad novel, pointed out that most predators only get taught technique, not predator/prey relationships. But, she insisted it would be cute to watch the ferrets play with the hamster.
Everyone else in the class was a female, so my response was "Well, you're wrong, but I know you won't listen to me, what could I know. So I'm just going to stand over here, keep my hands in one piece, and let the girls all scream and grab onto me when the ferrets pull the hamster apart."
Naturally, I was right, she didn't listen. The hamster died within the week from it's injuries, the girls screamed loud enough to be heard through multiple closed doors a hundred feet away and teleported from next to the animals to latch onto me (almost strangling me, of course, and ironically, they all hated me, but I was the only male present), and the "Biology teacher" looked like she was taping her knuckles for a cage fight for the next 2 weeks.
Was rather entertaining.

T_T That's sad. I wish I could send my a completely random nondescript army of hamsters to invade her house and slowly starve her off from the resources necessary to maintain life as a normal human being. They would somehow lock the door and keep her from getting out, they'd chew over all the wires, leaving her food unrefrigerated. Within a few months, she will be eating anything that she can find that hasn't been spoiled by the harsh mistress of time. The hamsters would of course also dedicate several troops to stuffing her plumbing, leaving her with no water but what she can gather from inside her house. She would be left hopelessly sucking all the moisture she could out of old plants and-
Of course, err, that would never happen. That's silly, I mean, a few hamsters couldn't do that much. Hehe. Right.
B-b-bans, anyone? Bans? They're funny, right?

You mean to tell me that there are all of these troll TS sights, and I've never seen any of them before? I feel like I'm the elephant in the room i guess :/

I believe the original TL joke on it comes from this thread: does anyone know where i can download ram.

For anything bad tech advice related in-joking found on TL that you may not understand, refer to the links provided in this post by ETT:
Veg 4 lyfe! I have a feeling that his computer has actually become sentient and actively despises him.

Bot edit.
User was banned for this post.

woah TL.net bot is quick. i saw that as a post, clicked report but the text in the 'report this post' was 'bot edit' (sorry for submitting the report, i was reeling in shock.
don't know why i would expect to be able to work faster than code... maybe because whenever the bot posts i picture it as a metal robot sat at a keyboard somewhere...

Based on the last thread, I think the computer's hatred is understandable but not really necessary to cause problems.
Where can I download a C++ nowadays?
I must have mistyped something when I went to download it because I do have a g++.

ymfaw was just temp banned for 2 days by Falling.

Reason: "PS. Make sure to call me racist, ban me..."
Ok. You know half the time I don't even read the rest of the post when I see "ban me" except perhaps to see if I should ban for longer. Don't martyr.

They never do. I just think people think that they look cool, like they are proven right when they get banned.

Maybe they'd think twice if said martyring sacrificed more than just an online account...

Duckcraft was just temp banned for 2 days by boesthius.
That account was created on 2012-04-11 07:35:45 and had 26 posts.
Reason: You just don't get it. TL isn't your university bulletin board.
So I was curious what this was all about, and checked Duckcraft's history:
![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/xE6E5.png)
I thought the search must be glitching, so I checked the topic IDs. Who makes the exact same thread five times over the course of five days, despite it getting closed every time? On the one hand, Duckcraft is very lucky not to be permed. On the other hand, it would have made me sad; I always die a little inside when a really cool account name is lost when it's taken by someone who's then immediately banned.

I'm happy I'm not the only one who feels this way. I get flustered when I see someone with a cool account name get banned. I mean WTF? If you were planning on getting banned you should've picked a shitty name like the 12 year olds on xbox live do, and save the cool names for the people that aren't asshats.

Lol asshat. Haven't used that one in a while. Last awesome cuss i came up with was fuckhole instead of asshole. I laughed so hard my buddy started laughing.
On a relevant note: No bans for quite a while now. Must be a good day.

It wouldn't be very difficult either, how do you think those forum trolls (not real fictional trolls, thank god) would fare against a well-placed shuriken and/or a katana?
Criminal charges be damned, I'd do it for a shuriken as my forum icon.

Yeah, asshat is a damn good one to bust out once in awhile. Butt Pirate is rather hilarious as well. =) It is always hard on slow ban days like to find something cool to add to the thread. If you need something though, play the TL Birthday Ban Game that we were all playing like 10 pages ago. =)

Oh my god...I had not even thought about the epic icon like a fucking shuriken. I wants.
