I'm endorsing "frame" as the new "like". 

Yeesh.  Here come the quote tunnels.

In general Louisiana s*cks at bannered routes

Sacks? Socks? Sicks? Secks?

The asterisk as a wildcard need not represent only a single character.

Louisiana shocks at bannered routes.
Louisiana smacks at bannered routes.
Louisiana singletracks at bannered routes.

Sometimes threads have serendipitous page breaks. This isn't that weird in context, but when it's the first thing you see on the page:

Why the fuck would I need goat milk soap in the middle of a road trip?

I mowed the lawn one time at 2 AM while I was tripped out on Percocet.

My great-great-grandfather ... really hated NE2 and would talk at length about how unpleasant NE2 is -- how an encounter with NE2 would always be the worst part of one's day. He used quite profane language when speaking of NE2, sometimes of actions that were, anatomically speaking, quite infeasible.

I hope someone read that for the first time right here with no context whatsoever.

Not from here, but from a thread on r/Albany on how to have fun around the area:

Reddit is where all the people not having fun go. It's a bad place to ask.

The Key Bridge thread just keeps getting weirder.  If I need a laugh, I can read the TV Tropes page for My Immortal... or I could read this post from NE2:

Q: Do horses vomit?

A: Horses are anatomically and neurologically incapable of vomiting, a trait that sets them apart from most other mammals. This is due to several physiological factors: the cardiac sphincter at the junction of the esophagus and stomach is exceptionally strong and does not reopen once food enters the stomach, even under pressure.

Additionally, the esophagus enters the stomach at a steep angle, making reverse flow nearly impossible.
Horses also lack the neural coordination required for vomiting, as their brain's vomiting center is poorly developed or absent. Compounding this, the stomach is positioned deep within the rib cage, preventing effective compression by abdominal muscles. These design features, while evolutionarily stable, come with serious health implications.

Because horses cannot vomit, they are especially vulnerable to digestive emergencies such as colic or gastric rupture. If they ingest something toxic or suffer from severe bloating, they cannot relieve pressure through vomiting, making early veterinary intervention critical. So while it may seem like a quirky biological fact, it's actually a high-stakes limitation in equine care.

I'll make it clear, you can write this down, I want to fuck a woman as a horse. None of this is a secret, I just, to be clear, many jokes have been made about this but I stand by it. My moral principles are ROCK SOLID. I'm... my feet are firmly planted in the ground. I've got my boots up, they're planted firmly, you cannot move me from my position. This isn't a secret. Talk to a therapist? Why do you want to be the horse Vaush? Because then I'd have a giant dick. Okay? Couldn't you have an uh, a big dick the other way? Well yeah, I mean yeah um, I could have a big dick hypothetically in any variety of scenarios but then it wouldn't really be a horse dick. "Well you could be a human with a horse dick", yes but then I wouldn't have that powerful stallion energy using it. There you go, that's it, that's the whole thing.

Why is the reincarnated Beltway just an AI caricature of an angry roadgeek?

[Max Rockatansky]

He was using AI off forum as well when he was engaged in similar arguments about the Key Bridge.  He strikes me as being surprised that the community didn't agree wholesale with his tunnel idea and in turn is going to act like a baby about it in retaliation.  I've noticed there is a uber safety slant to a lot of Beltway's latest series of misgivings.  Maybe I should write a letter to DOGE describing how many wasteful pages there are in the Key Bridge thread?

But hey, the "horse dick" quote was at least a classic that came out of the Key Bridge thread meltdown.
