I'm horrified, that's exactly the sort of uncivil insult
which sends sensitive souls to Facebook.

Well, it had to be said. Its rather clensing, though I still feel
dirty. He forced me into participating in this evil endevour. I
think I need more therapy. Missouri River sloughs next weekend and
then the White in October.

Usenet has been critically ill for quite awhile now. We should
regard its passing as a blessing and remember it fondly.

There's a roff on Facebook and if Google+ ever reaches critical
mass there will be a roff there as well.

roff is dead, long live roff.

Poor Wolfgang. He'll have to find somewhere else to be an asshat.

One of the reasons I don't bemoan the demise of Usenet is because
Usenet was accepting of anonymity. Social networks will work much
better and will be more enjoyable for most folks when anonymity is
not allowed.

so trading off sorting through anonymity in exchange for loss of
personal privacy is a good thing, you reckon? I differ, and have never
had any problem sorting through the spammers and sock puppets on Usenet
by myself.
Tom

Actually I love sock puppets, especially Personaobscura and Mikey's
various socks.

Dave

Have no idea who "Mikey" is, but thanks, I guess. As for "socks", you don't
have Clue One. But that's what makes you so much fun to play with.

Don't ever change.

Ah huh...... sure..... *If you don't know Mikey you shouldn't be here. *
*Really!

And, for everyone else: *See, ROFF is alive and well, suffering through
the Fortenberrys and the Wolfgangs........and all the unecessary
socks..... * d;o)

moron.

Now that's more like it, Facebook could never replace my dear old
loveable roff. I've missed it so. /s/

Apropos of #3, I recently endured 11, yes 11, days of diarrhea, the first
week of it I didn't dare get more than 50' from the bathroom so was
trapped at home unable to get to my doctor or a drugstore for Immodium or
Lomotil. The method of getting to the bathroom when an attack occured was
what us old farmers used to call "doing the green apple quickstep".
After the first week I was able to make a real quick trip to town to get
the necessary stuff to slow things down. (which, btw, didn't work) Found
out later through my massage lady that some sort of virus was going
around and I wasn't alone in doing this dance of doo doo. How nice,
misery loves company!

Massage?

Ahem.....

Should'a maybe wrapped that rascal.

Frank Sr.
...does anyone else have a cat that must accompany one to the toilet and
watch?

Ah.....well.....there's a simple, cheap, and eternally effective cure
for that.

Perhaps in its afterlife Usenet roff could serve as Mike Connor's
guide to North American fly fishing written by a guy who has never
fly fished in North America. LOL !!

The main reason for the demise of this group is you, and others like
you, you poisonous *******.

You wont last five minutes on any social media as soon as you get up
to your nasty tricks.
