WHO is that FROM?
I can't stop the world from turning around, or the pull of the moon on the tide, but I don't believe that we're in this alone, I believe we're along for the ride...

It's a joke post.  That's not what the original person actually said. 
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

It's also a relatively well known copy-pasta.

I wasn't necessarily taking the threat seriously. I was just thinking that the language being used was taking it too far, AND that the threat might cause the person it was being leveled against some stress or anxiety, both of which are reasons I thought that sort of thing wasn't ALLOWED on DTF.
 In fact, I know enough about the military to know that if you are SEAL, you're NOT a MARINE...you are NAVAL personnel, or a SALOR, and a SEAL does NOT have the authority to bring ANY of their fellow military persons or weapons to a civilian's home, certainly not for the purpose of murder, or even intimidation. You need to be a POLITICIAN to have that kind of authority. You know...like a president who uses drones to kill people, and then BRAGS about how GOOD he is at it...!?...

So fking tired of being an oversensitive naive moronic fkin bitch. I CANT STOP IT. I CANT CHANGE. IM STUCK. This world eats me alive. My purpose is simply to be what others shouldn't be. A shriveled fking beacon of sad energy. I have lost. I am lost.

The A.S.S. top 75 songs stopped 25 songs in, this one didn't even reach 10 songs and apparently stopped already. I think we can almost puzzle together a top 50 from the various incomplete lists :lol
people on this board are actual music fans who developed taste in music and not casual listeners who are following current fashion trends and listening to only current commercial hits.

But I mean seriously, if you're gonna stop doing something because someone calls you out, then it's pretty obvious that he/she was right.
