  • There have been several just today.

    I don't need to be anonymous to note this, but this was the closest (and possibly most appropriate) forum to post it.

    Not funny. Don't spam CI by bumping years old threads if you don't have anything to contribute to them. Right now all I see are emojis...

    I think someone's cheese might have slid off their cracker.

    To be fair, though, living in these times will drive anyone over the edge. I'm tempted to be harsh, but I think I'll just pray for her instead. :pray:

  • They better STOP IT. I deleted the empty posts "necro-bumping"  10 year old threads for NO reason.

    If your account has been accessed by a child/nephew/grandson I don't care, but I might have to ban your account until you come to me to tell me what happened.

  • Garland Grilled on Whether 'Traditional Catholics' Are 'Extremists' for Nearly 1 Minute

    [color=var(--secondary-font-color)][/color]
    [color=var(--secondary-font-color)] By [color=var(--secondary-font-color)]Bradley Cortright[/color] September 20, 2023 at 2:53pm [/size][/color]

    Attorney General Merrick Garland was grilled for roughly one minute on whether he believes traditional Catholics are extremists before finally sharing his view. 
    Rep. Jeff Van Drew (R-N.J.) asked Garland during a House Judiciary Committee hearing Wednesday, “Do you agree that traditional Catholics are violent extremists?”
    “I have no idea what traditional means here,” the attorney general responded, to which Van Drew explained, “Catholics that go to church.”

    Garland pressed on as he raised his voice, “The idea that anyone with my family background would discriminate against any religion is so outrageous! So absurd!”

  • What does "necro" as a prefix mean? Never saw that before.

  • Necro as a prefix means "dead".

    Necro bumping is "bumping" (or posting to) old, dead threads that have been long buried and forgotten.
