Two things:

1- Google+ app, you just annoyed me.

2- Fox and Hound here thought a game was more important than the president's words on a national tragedy. A game that children play is apparently more important to this place than a few minutes of the President's time as he speak on, and expresses our national grief, the tragedy that occurred in Connecticut recently. A game, whose outcome will not change national policy, whose outcome will not create peace in any conflict and whose very existence is trivial compared to real world actions with real world implications.

The Fox and Hound in Lone Tree, CO apparently thinks having the President on one of over 26 teoevisions in the place is a waste of screen space.

Well, Fox and Hound, for choosing a children's game over national tragedy, I leave you never to return. And as I explained to the waitress, I may return, but I will not spend money here any longer.

They shouldn't be playing the nonstop mournfest, sure, but a presidential address? Considering how rarely it happens, it seems like tuning in on a couple of screens in a place that's all about what's on wouldn't be out of the question.

That was my point, Gabi Fielden. The President broke into the football game to speak and then they found the game on another channel. 

So f*cking stupid.

I was responding to ryan and didn't realize you meant they had actively changed the channel away from the presidential address. That is lame. If I were a customer id stop visiting too, but since I'm not they probably don't care that I won't be stopping in.

So, I asked Andrew Tamm, who filled my Stream with a hundred (sarcasm there) animated gifs and cat pictures to remove me from whatever Circle he has me in where he posts the animated gifs and cat pictures. It was either that or unfollow him and I didn't see any reason to unfollow him. Me asking https://plus.google.com/112885755521259735422/posts/78dwnvvgh4p <==edited to add the correct link Then he plusses me onto Public posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/EuuR1tnU3vJ https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/8r6Grcm2Jpj https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/74PgSu6iL2s Then one of his friends (or Circlers) starts plussing me into posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/107120198886093172821/posts/gRW9JhWLs5T Don't get me wrong, I'm all about sarcasm and messing with people, but this seems sort of childish to me.

I'm shutting down Google+ for the night and quite possibly for the weekend. Why? This stupid #gifwars thing people are so proud of. This Adam Black guy said he doesn't like gifs and now everyone is mass trolling him. Having been mass trolled like this I can relate to him easily enough. Have an opinion and the collective might of Google+'s lower class denizens jump on a bandwagon. I just saw a post where someone wanted to jump on board and had to get clarification she was tagging the proper Adam Black. She wasn't even connected to him ! Nor was she a part of the original discussion. She just wanted to follow the herd. When I called her out of it she claimed, "one gif doesn't make a troll." Perhaps not, but she's contributing to a larger troll effort. One straw doesn't break the camel's back, but thousands will. So, tonight, Google+ disgusts me. It probably will tomorrow as well. And possibly Sunday. I gave up Google+ for two months this spring
