Welcome to the world of useless_facts! Who'da thunk the truth about humans was so easy to sum up? Specifically, this 'truth' is that humans are clearly natural herbivores, judging by their teeth compared to existing carnivores and omnivores.
Wank spews back and forth, with 'justification for vegetarians', folks fuming at PETA, resentment for oppression via dental records, biological anthropology lessons gone horribly wrong, and the brilliantly confusing ETA bon mot from the OP:
Note: Please don't think I'm trying to say "GO VEGETARIAN" or anything. I'm just stating facts. You can SEE the fact so don't go all HASTY on me.
Edit: I don't feel like responding back to all the bombarded comments so here, the teeth part is a "theory". Not in my mind though, but a theory for most of you guys. It's a pretty damn great theory if you ask me.
But humans not needing meat to survive is a fact. GET OVER IT.
Hi-larious, either way. Gonna go gnaw on a rock, now.

9:06a - More useless_facts wank
![[info]](http://www.journalfen.net/img/userinfo.gif) christylou82 posts an icon in the useless facts community which she admits is not quite useless, but knowledgeable to know.
Things are fine until:
suwiel: Are you...trying to piss people off?
kasmoie: seems apropriate, unless you think that these facts aren't useless enough, then we may have a problem.
but why would that piss anyone off?
njyoder: Probably because it's an anti-semitic statement that intends to disparage Jewish beliefs? If Jews want to make arbitrary beliefs about clothes and hooven animals, they should be able to without Jew haters like you stepping in.
And we're off!

1:50p - Move from clairvoyantwank...
..when it hit two pages. So sue me, it's delicious. And we haven't seen GAFFwank for ages. And it's got textbook Godwin. Enough excuses.
From zero to Godwin in six posts!
I feel the need to blow off some steam over here so don't mind me. I'd love to hear your opinions of what I have to say, but mostly I'm just venting in a place I know a lot of people will see it. It may or may not have been said before… but… I dunno, it helps me to vent in public. Now, on with the rant.
It's typical pro-choice blowing-off-of-steam, complete with obligatory statement that the Bush administration is going to overthrow Roe V. Wade. I don't follow the whole abortion mess regularly because I get all angry and scream and hit things, so I don't know if Korde's rant is paranoid hyperbole or legitimate fear. But that's not the fun part! The fun part is when, sic posts down, Ermine shows up to represent her peeps in the pro-life movement, and amid the usual arguments we get this little jewel:
I honestly don't see the issue with abortion. Who could be opposed to life? Well, I suppose I can recall a certain group who promoted the mass elimination of "undesirables" whom they didn't consider worthy of human dignity: We call them Nazis. But what they did was wrong, right? This is different.
My question is: howcome no one ever mentions other historical genocides? It's always Nazis, Nazis, Nazis... c'mon, people, I know there's more than one of the things. How about givin' the conquistadors some lovin', know what I'm saying?
There's a little bit more about whether or not this appropriate use of Gabbery, but this fades out quickly in favor of HYPERBOLE!
These people think God speaks to them.
Therefore what they say is akin unto God's word.
Ergo, they are God.
God, I love GAFF.
( Okay, since the Guru relegated Gabbery to members-only in an effort to reduce bandwidth costs or something, here's the highlights and then some, C&P'd because I can't seem to save the webpages and my 'capping skills are... not. )
*shakes hand* Owww... if someone knows a better way to archive the thread, for god's sake tell me.

Didn't see this one, so here we go.
Over in bad_sex, a story is posted.
It's posted behind a cut, but in a fairly large, sickly green/blue font.
Raventhon takes great offense, as evidenced by its comment of, "why the fuck did you post it in a non-black color? It doesn't make you cool. It just pisses people off."
Arguments ensue, cliched graphics are used, and community info is quoted.
And there was much rejoicing.

6:42p - bad_spellers_suck_more!
 kazumitsu posts her tale of woe in bad_rpers_suck.
Unfortunately, it's laden with more typos than a Mary Sue has extra-special abilities.
And the crowd goes wild.
kazumitsu immediately calls shenanigans dyslexia, but the real wank doesn't start until razielfan plunges in to defend her little buddy with the Scimitar of Condescension +5.
