Never understood the ignore list thing - it seems to me rather like choosing to sit in the smoking section and then complaining about all the smokers there.
If you only want to listen to certain people, and can be offended by people with different views to the point of having to not look at what they say ever again, I reckon the internet really isn't the best place for you: you should be out talking with some nice, safe, like-minded, pre-approved friends in real life.
Skuzzy only works here, but he obviously gets paid enough to do it otherwise he wouldn't. Unless he's under the impression that the word "intern" is some sort of abbreviation for internet connection.
"Need an intern to help take a load off of the BBS, Skuzzy?"
"Nope. The exisiting system can handle it."
"You're sure?"
"Yeah"
"OK... I guess."
"Damn, he keeps asking me that. What an idiot. Why doesn't he offer me someone to help read through all this crap instead..."
