Hey, if you're boycotting Target, get your boycott card ready because there's so many more companies to stop giving your money to.

Which ones are you boycotting, and why Jason ON?

I'm not boycotting trans bathroom usage, Lorne Thomas​. So, none.

The question had nothing to do with the trans issue and just about boycotting companies and why you would boycott them.
I would guess your long standing boycott of the reading rainbow has been largely ignored.

You know, there are times I think you're just trying to sound stupid, Lorne Thomas​. This entire post is about the trans bathroom issues being out front and center by the terrified Right. So, when you ask which company I'm boycotting, you're asking in reference the subject matter being discussed, unless otherwise stated. Which you didn't.

It's called context.

You seem to misunderstand that question mark at the end of a sentence that is, in fact, a direct question. (Sometimes people will simply forget.) In this case the a comma is used to to separate the question from a qualifying question, so it is as a point of fact two complete questions. 

I understand your confusion I asked you two direct and related questions, which was apparently one question too many for you to comprehend.

The confusion is in your inability to relate context.

I try to keep it simple, short, and the big words to a minimum. It's like talking to a child honestly.

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
