Edit this is a dupe because the OP is an Asshole!!!

[acmejack]

Please be sure to read all the comments from the Thread Police ensuring that the OP is aware of that fact!
The OP is shamefaced and considering ritual suicide to satisfy the many rightly outraged observers who have taken note of and called his attention to this inexcusable breech of etiquette. I shall take a brief hiatus to contemplate the remainder of my miserable life.

Please disregard this old, dated and totally unworthy of your attention news item. I most humbly apologize again for wasting your most valuable time with a duplicate story. Thank you.

A US woman has been arrested on suspicion of murdering her newborn baby by burning her in a microwave oven.

China Arnold's daughter had high-heat internal burns, but no outside marks, Ken Betz from the county coroner's office in Montgomery, Ohio, said.

"We have some forensic evidence that is consistent with our belief that a microwave oven was used," Mr Betz said of baby Paris Talley's death.

The mother denies the charge, which comes over a year after the girl died.

[Texasgal]

1. Does anybody ever

LOOK anymore to see if this has been posted already?

[acmejack]

3. I didn't see it and I did look.

If I beg your forgiveness will you please let me off the hook? Where did you see it since you are apparently all over this?

[kiahzero]

9. Fixed it. (n/t)

[Texasgal]

5. It was right under

your thread... kinda hard to miss.

[Karenina]

6. DUPE!!!!

[kiahzero]

7. There's a difference between less than a minute and 6 hours.

About five hours and 59 minutes, in fact.

[acmejack]

10. Sorry I haven't found it yet.

I beg your forgiveness at any rate. Believe me I do check apparently this one was missed. But I'll be damned if I can find it your link took me to an invalid topic. Either way I certainly do apologize to the thread police! Wow.

[kiahzero]

11. I wasn't criticizing you.

I was pointing out to Karenina that two people posting a similar thing can easily happen within the same minute, because the first post wasn't there when the second post was being written.

[Texasgal]

12. Oh Good God!

Stop with the dramatics. Jeez.

I was just commenting on how people don't seem to LOOK anymore to see if this topic had been covered.

The thread is a good size thread and was right under yours.

[dsc]

13. It's position after he posted is irrelevent

It could have been ten pages down while he was typing and only got elevated by a late post.

[kiahzero]

16. It's been on the front page since it was first posted. (n/t)

[Karenina]

19. Oh, you're SUCH a stickler for detail!

;-)

[kiahzero]

22. I need an avatar that says "Pedantic."

Is it any wonder I'm going to be a lawyer?

:D

[Karenina]

25. NO!

:rofl::hug::rofl:

[Little Wing]

2. Yes, we know

[scarletwoman]

14. Yeah, it's all about YOU.

:eyes:

[davidinalameda]

15. actually it's all about me

but who's keeping track

:)

[scarletwoman]

20. Well, shit. I thought it was all about ME.

Oh, the humanity!

;)

29. We can pretend it is, for awhile, if you like. Or, we can pretend we pretended to...

[scarletwoman]

32. *gasp* can't. catch. my. breath. laughing. too. hard.

I think I have reached DU nirvana. I may never post again. I humbly bow before your photoshop mastery...

I am not worthy,

17. Suicide really isn't called for

.......a week of bread and water will suffice. ;-)

[RB TexLa]

21. But that is a person's right if they choose to do so

[kiahzero]

18. I laughed.

Edit delivers.

[Karenina]

23. Etiquette, before you post

please check the first 2 pages and do a simple search. That eliminates the need to be "outraged" over BULLSHIT.

[Texasgal]

24. wow...

Just wow...

Perhaps thicker skin may be what you need?


OOPS meant to post to OP. Sorry. ;)

[Karenina]

26. Hä?

Did you respond to the wrong post??? :shrug:

[Texasgal]

28. Yes... and here I was

whining about a dupe! LOL!!

Sorry, I was trying to respond to the op! :hi:

[lonestarnot]

27. WTF?

:shrug: Acmejack you are bad bad bad! :rofl: :spank: :spank: :spank: but I love you! :loveya:

[Bjornsdotter]

30. I see dupes all the time

....no big deal. If they bother some people, let them use their ignore button.

Many times the actual dupe is the first one I see....after all not all of us are here 24/7.


This is the first time I've seen this story.

Cheers

[XOKCowboy]

31. OK first thing you have to do is hot skewers to the eyes....

then pull your fingernails out with pliers and, since this is your first time, cut off your pinkie at the first joint. Only then can I excuse your transgression.

Next time... Whole finger! So watch it!

[uppityperson]

33. SO WHAT IF THERE ARE DUPES!

how you dupe police, do you remember, lets say, Schiavo? Or the Pope? Or any of the times when there are 30 or 40 dupes on sort of the same thing NOT TO MENTION 2 posting the same article? get over it. And acmejack, just ignore it. This isn't necessary or the way to handle it.

[ProfessorGAC]

39. What He Said!

Or She, if you're a ma'am. Geez, talk about a tempest in a teapot! What? Do dupes use up an 50% of the server space or something!

Besides, this is kind of an interesting story. Can't see how any harm is done by getting extra people informed at a later time.

34. This is my favorite thread of the day.

36. K/R!

[gulfcoastliberal]

37. Can't help but agree! K&R! nt

[NaturalHigh]

38. Don't let the thread police get you down.

Some people need to get a life, or at least get a clue.

[Philosoraptor]

40. I for one cannot forgive your duplicating ass.

And I will never respond to one of your repulsive duplicates again. You have the rope, you know what to do.:sarcasm:

[ProfessorGAC]

41. Way To Pile On!

Funny post, Raptor! Sheesh what a ridiculous display on this thread, huh?
