Yes, but your page count will go down when you start to add people to 'ignore'. :)

I'm on page 1997, as I have a very short ignore list.

I tend to ignore the ignore function. People shut up after a while.

Never mind the page count. I’m showing 49,996 posts. 50,000 is going to look beautiful.

Unsurprising news about Louis CK. Another creep bites the dust.

Will be interesting to see how this plays out, looks like their first action will come back to haunt them.

What a time to be alive

Like a dancing plastic bag in a famous film.

Though the forum is less tainted by sex offending.

I’m thinking of going for fizzy.bleach.

A fine choice, I'll try to remember the good times we had.

John Cusack is a sex offender?

It’s rare that a comedy successor does better than their predecessor.

Except maybe Lamarr / Amstell.

Louis CK seems to be creating from first hand experience.

Obviously don't want to cast allegations or anything, but is it that surprising that allegations come out about comedians like Louis CK?

I'd be surprised by something about John Richardson coming out. But most of the rest of them doesn't shock me.

(although oddly even in spite of his current beard, Franky B turning out to be a nonce would shock me)

Louis CK has now issued a statement admitting that the allegations are true. Which, at the least, is the right thing for him to do, the very least he, and other abusers, can do.
Anyone who has not watched One Mississippi or Better Things, both of which he had some involvement in (nominally in the former, as a co-writer in the second) should do so, they are both excellent.

I watched Two Mississipi but got bored two seconds in.
