That link is fake. I don't know what it is because NoScript doesn't let it play, but doesn't seem to have anything to do with this project.
It's a Google Docs spreadsheet, duh!

So let me guess. It's some video variation of goatse.cx then. Not as effective however because many people run NoScript these day and it blocks such videos by default. I never understood people who post goatse links. Repressed homosexual desires perhaps.

The last page of this thread makes me feel like I'm back in time, reading an AOL chat room circa 1998.

No. This isn't like that. In this case Kosmonaut is genuinely claiming to be a homosexual. It isn't being used as an insult in this case.

It isn't him being horrified that an innocent looking link leads to a trip through the bowels of Internet. On the Codex? Why, I never.

I'm not horrified in the slightest. I never saw anything except a noscript link to some video. I don't blindly follow links with flash and javascript enabled. I've just noticed that Kosmonaut has proven himself to be the kind of person who posts goatse links. I merely posed the question of what makes such people tick. What motivates such people? I just don't understand it. Do you know the answer?

Maybe latent homosexuality?

When a mind does not *know* itself, it is flawed. When a mind is flawed, the man is flawed. When a man is flawed, that which he touches is flawed. It is said that what a flawed man sees, his hands make broken.

So... is this whatever between Kosmonaut and hiver the codex's version of the deep, emotional romance plotline that the BSN folks long for?

I don't really care about romances one way or another, but it is pretty funny to see the desperate rationalizations and pleading from people in the comments. Did I say funny? I meant sad and creepy.

It's funny. I keep trying to find comments about the lack of romances over there, but I haven't seen any yet.

Or maybe that you are a tween? You should know. What motivated you?
What motivates me is the butthurt of some posters that get angry because said links and start questioning the poster about its sexuality and motivations.

hiver is one of my favorite posters.

Edit: Guys, please don't derail further this thread, please.

Is that what people mean by 'trolling'? You were just looking to get some kind of reaction from people? Or were you trying to prove that you are clever enough to post a fake link? As I said, for me it was only the slightest of annoyances due to noscript. Did you not realize that your link wouldn't work for people who aren't running javascript or flash by default? We don't even see the first frame of a video. Are you familiar with noscript? Browsing the web with javascript and flash enabled is like fucking a bunch of cheap whores without a condom.

My guess is he thought it was funny? I mean, there was a time when such things were funny, now they're just kind of boring, but certainly nothing to get worked up over.

When it works, it works. When it does not... eh, it'll work eventually. BTW your countertrolling is boring.
