My reply was facts about hummingbirds, which is a damn sight more informative than the OP itself is. What rule does this violate? Is it likely to derail such an insightful OP? I'm all ears as to how this thread is what you want for DU.

So tell you what, I'll stop posting about famine and poverty and the environment, because clearly you guys prefer such witty and constructive OPs as this one. And besides, millions dying is so passe these days anyways, and doesn't drive up hits like a good flamewar does...

On edit, no need to reply, I'm out. You guys can wallow in the filth that you've let this place become. Have fun storming the castle!

1. Question:

Was the thread about hummingbirds?

[Forkboy]

2. I can only conclude that you feel that was an earnest attempt by the OP for constructive discussion

Which leads to my question: How far up your ass is your head so we can determine how long of a crowbar is needed to wedge it out?
