Document Confusion by Cameron

May 24th, 2007 11:00 PM

INSTRUCTIONS: Document the experience of confusion, in yourself or in others.

While following the strange and sordid history of this thread, I came across a post by Rubin. It was in classic Rubin fashion, with the ever-present "Rubin hates it!" sticker.

As I prepared to reply my admonishment, I noticed another post by Rubin in the same thread... Odd.

He hadn't posted there earlier. I was sure of it... I felt a little dizzy trying to determine what was happening... was this the same thread I'd been following? What is going on here?

It took me an inordinantely long time to figure out what had happened, and by then, the flood had began...Rubin Confusion

I don't know if it was planned, or was an organic tidal wive of silliness. But it was confusing and wonderful. I think there are more Rubin's and Rubin look alikes, but you get the picture.

I miss you SF0.

Seriously... what the hell.


EDIT:


stand on soapbox

It's come to my attention that a large number of these tasks submitted in the last day, have been in the style of a Rubin comment.

While I have been greatly amused by the doppleganger comments as they are eeiriely close to the Real Rubin(tm) comments; unfortunately the tasks are another story.

Rubin generally put a lot of effort into his tasks, these parody tasks are just clogging up the queue. One may have been funny, but really, it's out of hand.

I'm sure y'all know they will be rejected and Red X'ed, but you're counting on the moderators to do a lot of cleanup and unnecessary busy work, which seems rather thoughtless to me.

Anyhow, that's just how I feel...

remove soapbox
