Since I invariably wind up getting “name suits” types of comments, here’s the explanation behind it:

Around the turn of the millennium, I was trying to come up with a username to use on a particular site that had a shortish character count limit for usernames. My goal was something related to the fact that I would often be making my points in arguments with “holier-than-thou” types by taking what they were saying, and turning it on its head so the offensive stuff was directed back at them.

I also happened to learn shortly beforehand that many years ago “'ape” was somewhat commonly used as a verb to mean “imitate” or “copy.”

I’m sure you can figure the rest out.

  • Did you not notice the community you were in? I wasn’t serious, but you are - whether it’s due to hypertension, or an insecurity-driven need to overcompensate by showing off your “superior” knowledge is something I DGAF about.

    Go take some Tylenol PM with some herbal tea, get some decent sleep, and remember to unbind your twisted panties.

    Good night.












  • Sorry, I feel the opposite. With each day bringing ever more absurd crap & destruction from this admin, waiting for the time for this all to be over with has slowed down and stretched out (like a horror movie hallway) to the point of feeling like this shit will never end.

    The only way to make that graph make sense to me is if you added a toilet to the bottom.









  • I’m glad you still manage have a more positive outlook on the future than I do.

    Yes, my perspective is definitely colored by my experience in America, but if you think similar won’t happen elsewhere then I think you’re being overly idealistic - at least when it comes to the full population of the world. Those who enable the powerfully wealthy will certainly do better - at least until those who don’t are no longer much of a threat, and said wealthy no longer need their enablers.
