Click to play. It is short. I have always wondered but never bothered to look it up, if this fool is really a reverend. Sure doesn't talk like one. Or pay his taxes like one. Or spell like one. R-E-S-P-I-C-T? Just another race hustler, like Jesse Jackson.

I'd stay up late to see the results of that election. Even if I have to go to bed at 2 minutes to midnight.

I could see those being the hands that threaten doom

What does that term mean?

Number of negative replies far outnumber positive. I got that term from my son. Youngins like to make everything verbs these days.

Getting "ratioed" is a bit more nuanced than simply more negative comments then positive.

There is sort of a twitter pattern and hierarchy that plays out with popular or viral tweets. They usually have a very high number of likes followed by retweets, then comments.

Liking a tweet takes the least amount of effort and generally just means 'I agree' or 'this made me chuckle.' It's easy to do so there are generally more "likes" than other interactions. Very popular tweets might get thouands or even tens or hundreds of thousands of likes.

Next come retweets, which generally means 'I agree and I want my followers to see it too.' It still takes little effort, but there is a little more ownership attached to it because you're somewhat endorsing and attaching yourself to that person's line of thinking. There are usually fewer retweets than likes but you still might see popular posts generate thousands of them.

Leaving a comment takes the most amount of effort and even the most high traction tweets generally only get a few thousand comments. Essentially the ratio of comments is low compared to retweets and likes.

When someone gets "ratioed" you see the reverse. They have very few likes and retweets, but lots and lots of comments. It basically means that no one wanted to be associated with the moronic line of thinking, and people are going out of their way to come out of the woodwork and call out the OP for being an idiot.

So if you see a tweet with 2,000 comments, 20 retweets and 30 likes, that is one that's been ratioed.

Crap.
I guess I should have labeled them.
Cause now I don't remember what they were.
But, being political, Facebook probably didn't like them.

I recall the press vilified Dan Quayle for misspelling potato.

Mr Quayle was no Jack Kennedy, but I don't think he was a "race hustler" either.

Sounds like a guy with a hidden nitrous system in a Vega.

Maybe this should go in "the sad but true" thread?
