@2mkgz Ugh, forget it. Can I edit the question?
I give up even flagging these people.
 
user259867
Why given up flagging? It works.
 
@ASCIIThenANSI how? Did you even read the question?
 
user259867
Sometimes with a little help from a mod, sometimes without.
 
@2mkgz Meh, I feel like not bugging the mods with a flag anymore.
@Qantas94Heavy Yes.
 
1:01 AM
How would you edit this question then?
 
user259867
Handling flags is what they volunteered for.
 
user259867
Show me a mod who thinks that post shouldn't be flagged. :)
 
@Qantas94Heavy Take out all the swears, make it sound like a 'nice' post, collect my +2 rep, then flag to be moved to Meta.SE of Meta SO.
@Qantas94Heavy @2mkgz What do you think?
 
user259867
He's suspended on SO, so migration will fail.
 
@ASCIIThenANSI at which point you'll also waste other people's time by forcing other people to read this crap, then get 5 users to close this question, then another three votes to delete it.
 
user259867
1:03 AM
And on meta.SE it's off-topic.
 
@Qantas94Heavy Then just edit. Let other people deal with the rest someday.
The problem is that if we want to fix it, someone has to read it, and our only other option is to ignore it (another bad idea.)
 
Sure, let's disable flagging/closing/deleting on all SE sites for a week and see what happens.
 
@Qantas94Heavy No. Just no.
I think we should take some action, the problem is deciding what that action is.
 
delete
if in doubt, delete anyway
 
I think the quickest action we can take is getting those six offensive inappropriate flags which will auto-delete the question.
 
1:08 AM
@Qantas94Heavy So flag as offensive?
 
@ASCIIThenANSI I think it's quicker than getting a moderator or editing/migrating it elsewhere.
 
@Qantas94Heavy OK.
 
> I'll be deleting this post, It's not your guy's fault. I hope the demo gets fixed for others
he seems to be calming down a bit
 
user259867
Oh look, another SE-site-for-CMS proposal, django CMS.
 
@bjb568 very cool
!!/alive
 
@James Kinda sorta
 
how do we not already have a Django site?
 
@2mkgz whyyyyyy
Why are there all these CMSs?
 
2:13 AM
Dec 30 '14 at 2:46, by Shogging through the snow
a CMS is one of those things you're sure you can write yourself in an afternoon if you ever need it, until you need it and find yourself wasting way too much time supporting your little hack-job. So you look for something that can replace it where someone else is doing some of the heavy lifting...
we've had this discussion before
 
i need more proof
 
user259867
How can SE be very close to launching SO in Spanish while the search for Spanish-speaking CM is still open?

Sidevoting could be a 30K privilege. I suggest not documenting its effect on posts and users, leaving it to their imagination.
 
@AlexisKing Where is it?
 
I'm tired of you, unicode.

@bjb568 I suspect a complex tax evasion scheme.

I also suspect the majority of my one-star messages have a star from bjb.

I suspect the same is true for most of your messages with > 1 star
and mine
especially the ones where I make vaguely disparaging comments about bjb's taste in programming libraries.
Say what you will about him, at least bjb isn't pretentious

is there a bjblib available?
 
no

I want one
 
I do post random functions here sometimes.
 
I need to compile everything with -lbjb from now on

@yellowantphil it just turns all your error messages into photos of cats
 
@Shog9 The original had garbage that was somehow caused by a Windows copypaste bug from a window in one encoding to another without correct Unicode upgrading. The next stuff, well, that’s something else.

aww. Well, it didn't work, anyway.
 
@bjb568 wot
 
It has to do with how the Windows paste buffer works. Or rather, fails to work.

@bjb568 but unicorns don’t exist until Unicode 8

@yellowantphil Get to work then!
 
I posit a Windows copypaste bug for the original posting, but I’m shy on guesses for after that.
If you run a CP/M console in some random encoding and copypaste to the web, it will generate garbanzo beans. But what about those other revisions, eh?

@AlexisKing You forget: I have the OED and I know how to use it.
> bedead /bɪˈdɛd/, v. ? Obs.
Etymology: f. be- 2 + dead v.

trans. To deaden. Only found in pples. beˈdeaded, deadened; beˈdeading, deadening.

1656 H. More Enthus. Tri. §28. 27 ― His body so deeply overwhelmed and bedeaded with sleep.
H. More Antid. Ath. iii. xvi. (1712) 141 ― A dark bedeading Melancholy.
1681 Hallywell Melampr. (T.) ― Bedeaded and stupified as to their morals.
1736 in Bailey; and in mod. Dicts.
Plus unilook would not have found it otherwise.
I am bedeaded and stupified as to your scepticism.

@JanDvorak trans. To deaden. Only found in pples. beˈdeaded, deadened; beˈdeading, deadening.
The last one is beˈdeadening. Standard dictionary style abbreviation of repeated forms.

Hypothesis: somebody copied non-Unicode text from a Windows console window in some randomly queered up encoding into the original, mojibaking it mercilessly. But then the SE editing software kicked in with a bugg(er)ed vengeance and made a complete dog’s breakfast of what was already as unsavory as sin is attractive. So the second part is a bug if I am right. — tchrist 5 mins ago
That’s my story and I’m stickin’ to it.
It should be easy to repro.
There may, however, be some foul browser interaction that would impede that.
