ENOUGH WITH THE DOGCRAP ALREADY!!

[praxiz]

Someone puts flags with Bush's picture on it, on top of piles of dogturd, and then takes a picture of it. Disgusting, but I approve of the symbolism.

Then, they spread the pictures around the internet, and I eventually see one. I'm disgusted, but I approve of the symbolism.

Then, people on Democratic Underground puts it in their signatures, and I have to look at it every day.

So I have to stare at dog crap every day? Hm? Do I? We get it! You loathe Bush! We all have issues with the guy, obviously, but ..

REALLY...

HONESTLY ...

do we HAVE TO WATCH DOG CRAP EVERY DAY!?

I get nausiated every time I see that picture, and quite frankly, it's still just disgusting to watch.

Maybe some people don't get sick to their stomachs when seeing fecies, but I have to struggle hard to keep my lunch down, every time I do.

So pretty please with sugar (and a flag of Bush) on top. No more dog-crap signatures, please.

And also, please keep this kicked if you agree.

1. Firefox + Adblock = The end of your problem

Simple as that.

[kick-ass-bob]

11. I second this solution.

Then you can see all the other sigs.

On edit:
Now reading through the rest of the thread, it seems you have other issues that you need to deal with.

2. Turn off signatures in your "Preferences"

[praxiz]

3. Wait, so it's MY problem?

Ok, so if I post pictures of decomposing prostitutes, or people throwing up, or stuff like that - in my signature, I can just tell people (who complain) to push off and make like it's their fault? Tell them to "use firefox and adblocker" or just "turn off signatures" alltogether?

Whatever happened to: "Do not post messages that are inflammatory, extreme, divisive, incoherent, or otherwise inappropriate. "

[ghostsofgiants]

4. Never said it was your fault

Just offered a solution.

[praxiz]

5. What if I want to see other peoples signatures? nt

[ghostsofgiants]

6. Umm...

Adblocking the dog crap images would prevent you from seeing other signatures how exactly?

[Misunderestimator]

26. And with Firefox, you can just right click on ANY pic and block it.

Really, a very simple solution.

9. Poop ain't extreme --- Poop is a fact of life.

;)

[ghostsofgiants]

12. Very true

Now if someone shows up with a bungee jumping signature, then we've got trouble.

[Misunderestimator]

18. Um.... My response was a pretty good suggestion...

People can put whatever they like in their signatures. I have them turned off in my preferences.

But, hey, thanks for the "response" to my suggestion. :eyes:

8. Fine. Consider yourself ignored.

[StopTheMorans]

13. are you replying to yourself; and, if so, is it possible to ignore one's

self :shrug:

[kick-ass-bob]

16. It's not. I tried it once. I failed miserably

:cry::cry::cry:

[StopTheMorans]

19. fair enough. are you also enraged with dog shit?

:shrug:

[StopTheMorans]

10. WAAAAH, I HATE DOG FECES!

should we outlaw dog parks too? maybe large stretches of grass where stray dogs poop? :crazy:

[LynneSin]

14. You need to put a cork in your dog's butt

then no more dog crap

:D

[parasim]

15. I totally agree with you

I also approve of the message that image brings. In fact, I used it on the label of a CD of some recordings that I did which included a lot of Bush soundbites. The image is disgusting and was perfect to get the point across I was trying to make.

However, I soon realized that the image was so disgusting, people wouldn't listen to my CD because they were sickened by the image. Revolting images certainly can be very effective in getting a point across, but sometimes by their very nature, can also drive people away before they get the message.

Kind of like that Paris Hilton hamburger commercial.

17. As self-absorbtion approaches infinity,

the difference between disapproving of something and calling for its banishment approaches zero. :eyes:

[StopTheMorans]

20. CRAP SNAP!

Well put!!

[Zuni]

21. You obviously haven't seen this yet then

[ronnykmarshall]

28. That's the shit!!

[StopTheMorans]

22. dog shit kick

[asthmaticeog]

29. Hmmm, "dog shit kick?"

That sounds like a Greek Week event, after the tug-of-war, before the hot dog snarf...

[StopTheMorans]

30. i actually thought the same thing upon posting it

:freak:

[MrScorpio]

23. Shit happens, Baby
