Bad News From Upstairs

I've been accused of being childish and should stay in the CH (where I belong).
 
I've also been accused of trying to be intimidating by creating conflict where there is none.
 
I've been told to keep my stick poking (he shudda said schtick, ya?) to myself.
 
I've been deemed sad, too.
 
I'm sensing a pattern here.
 
Seems like I'm being harassed and I believe that is against the TOS, ya?

I read about it but I didn't take the 3 trolls' bait and decided that sooner or later Cakewalk will figure out that the absence of criticism signals an absence.
 
It seems sad to see Bob getting caught up with the judge and jury gang. He seems like a nice guy.
 
I'm giving myself a "Well Done".

If they're on the verge of achieving everlasting world peace and you interrupt to foment something, shame on you.
 
OTOH, if they're discussing relatively trivial things in a self aggrandizing manner, just tell them they missed your point entirely and then drink some chocolate milk.

 In order, then, to discover the limit of deepest tones, it is necessary not only to produce very violent agitations in the air but to give these the form of simple pendular vibrations. - Hermann von Helmholtz, predicting the role of the electric bassist in 1877.

I've been back a whole day and I have been good and haven't yet ventured upstairs to say anything about bargain bins and remaindered stock once.
 
I think that deserves a 'Well Done' if anything does.

I wouldn't accuse you of being intimidating.  Unfunny, yes.  Intimidating, no.

Bapu even gets trumped in the 'unfunny' stakes among some of the 'milk monitors' up there.
 
Imagine that, being more unfunny than two Bapu's put together.

I don't think the upstairs really exists.  I think it's a mythical place like Mordor, Ceti Alpha V, Crematoria, or Deleware.  I'm just kidding, of course.  Everyone knows that Mordor is real.
 
Anyway, I think the world is a much safer and better place as long as we keep that area sealed off.

Well one thing for certain- a few up there are very consistent.
 
I think the OP not only brought up well known issues/concerns but also did
a fine job at putting a few in their place.
 
I too have been very interested in what the bakers have been doing- especially
knowing that "others" have addressed and are addressing other major issues
that if Cake isn't paying attention  could make 2014 a very bad year for them. (IMO)
 
Of course there are those that are much more interested in track lane performance or how many colors they can change than wondering why the processor cores aren't being used or why they can't use multi instances of a plug-in....but sooner or later they will and that's why Cake best be addressing the heart of the matter because it won't be long and dealing with AAX isn't going to be an issue.
 
And man it's great to see Jon back....."milk monitors" LOL....Ace.

 I didn't  venture up there. I have no idea what's up . Is it worth the effort? No one has ownership of what anyone else says except the TOS. I have never seen strong arming and gang tactics change anyones mind or shed  very good light on the gang whoever they may be.
 
 We all know how cuddly and friendly Bapu is, can't pull one over on us.

Sometimes when I come to the CH I am reminded of an old joke my dad used to tell.
 
Guy goes into a homey neighborhood pub for the first time. As he's enjoying a beverage, another patron stands up and loudly says "seventeen!". There is a moment of silence, then the room erupts in laughter.
 
A while later another patron shouts "twenty-nine!". Another brief silence followed by laughter.
 
The guy asks the bartender what's going on. The bartender explains that the same guys have been telling the same jokes in there for so long that they've assigned numbers to them for efficiency. No need to actually tell the joke if everybody already knows it.
 
So he decides to join in. He stands up and announces "twelve!". Polite chuckles, but nobody laughs. Turning to the bartender, he asks what he's done wrong. Bartender says "don't feel bad, some people just can't tell a joke".


All else is in doubt, so this is the truth I cling to.

I saw it and thought it was stupid, was glad the OP took issue with it. It was like someone (BB) pointing at you while telling you to not point at people... really dumb.
