"An internal server error occurred. Please try again later." (Sift Talk Post)
>> ^lucky760:
We've discovered it appears to be thanks to Googlebot. It seems angry and out to destroy Siftbot for some reason.
It's been hitting old sifty from many dozens of different IP addresses repeatedly every second and every once in a while siftbot gets knocked down for a minute and that's when the dreaded "An internal server error occurred" message appears.
We're not sure of the reason or exactly how to stop Googlebot at the moment, but we're working on it. If any electro-whiz gurus have any ideas, feel free to toss them in our direction.
Robots.txt but then VS won't be indexed. Can you contact Googlebot about this issue?

Bill Moyers - Excellent panel interview on health care
But seriously. Besides the tinfoil hat conspiracy theories... laws get passed that corporation disapprove of all the time.
It just takes some goddamn balls to do it.
Christ. Obama, if you pass healthcare reform NOW... in three more years when you're up for election either you will win handily because people will be so happy they can't stand it or you will lose because your government.. I don't know... kills people or something I don't really see a downside.
But you will be the incumbent president with MUCH more ability to be reelected than any challenger just as any encumbent president. But America despises weakness... more than anything. Jimmy Carter was portrayed as a wimp by Reagan and lost handily... because CARTER ACTED LIKE A WIMP! For the love of christ, Lyndon Johnson was a democrat! That dude was made out of fucking concrete and held meetings while he was on the shitter.
JUST DO SOMETHING OBAMA... AND DO IT WITH ALL YOUR HEART AND SOUL.
There is nothing Americans love more than a Rocky Balboa. Any guy that throws EVERYTHING he has into a fight, and keeps getting knocked down but gets back up to fight again... americans eat that for breakfast.
But if you go out there and get knocked out because you were afraid you'd hurt someone's feelings... well, join Jimmy Carter (a great guy, but not the greatest president) at the one term presidents' table.
American girl flips the bird, throws drink in dudes face...
A real man would never initiate violence against a woman. This is a rule that is biological in nature. For most aspects of life, I consider men and women to be equal, but not here. If she were to throw a real punch, then yeah, you could sit her down on her butt, but not until she attacks first. Thrown drinks do not count.
This video shows a complete failure of polite society on several levels. As soon as voices were raised, everybody should have been paying close attention. As soon as she threw her drink, several men should have stepped between them. As soon as he knocked her down hard, several men should have made him bleed. Even if he had pushed her into the pool, there should have instantly been a line of men forcing that asshole out of the area.
More than even seeing a woman get knocked down, what pisses me off is all then men standing about doing nothing.
I consider myself to be more of a lover than a fighter, but if I had witnessed this, one of us would be going to the hospital.
The Worst Fountain Dive Ever - Thanks To Showboating Tosser
IT NEVER FAILS: IF SOMEONE GETS KNOCKED DOWN OR KNOCKED OUT, THE NEAREST MEATHEAD IMMEDIATELY LIFTS THEM TO THEIR FEET. The fucking guy probably has a spinal injury and a concussion, LEAVE HIM ON THE FUCKING GROUND.
For my money the guy who pushed from behind should be in jail for assault. I know if someone did that to me they would have a horrible accident themselves some time in the future.

Left 4 dead survival plan backfires
Some dick did that to me playing the demo once. We already had one person down, he shoots the car and runs to the safe room. The other two of us get knocked down while the hoard comes. We fight them off with pistols while laying on the ground and manage to survive, but he wouldn't come out of the safe room to help us up, even though it was clear. He waited several minutes for us to bleed out for the level to end.
I'm fixing to go play in a sec now that it's unlocked. I really shouldn't because I have somewhere I have to go tomorrow.
KMFDM - Juke Joint Jezebel
I finally saw whats left of KMFDM a couple years ago, in Atlanta... ridiculously fun... pit was very intense but with serious comradery... get knocked down and three people pick you up, that kind of thing.

That's what sent us all off... You did label those who enjoy it as brainless dipshits via that comment, and that's what gave us cause for some 'discussion'.
Later you honed that comment to be more along the lines of that you hate people who suggest that this is a great song, which I tend to agree with, but at the same time if said people also enjoyed a wide range of music with integrity and artistic value as well, are they not allowed to think a simplistic, catchy tune is also great?
Part of the problem was that I never thought anyone would pay serious attention to my initial comment, so I didn't spend the time editing or clarifying it that I normally might.
Thank you for at least acknowledging my follow-up statements, though I must object to the word "hate". I don't hate anyone for their love of this or any other song. If you think this song is a finely crafted piece of art, as so many people I've met seem to, then I think you need to reevaluate the definitions of "fine", "craft" and "art", and suspect you need to be exposed to more.
Kronos, for the record, this was never an argument and I harbor no hostility. Let's call it a "heated discussion" and move on.
Hugs and kisses,
Carl

Oh but... oh but...
xxovercastxx:
"I have not labeled anyone a "brainless dipshit" for liking this song. "
And
I specifically said I don't have any issue with people who like this song, so I'm starting to think you all just enjoy being offended and/or arguing.
Except that your original comment was You know how sometimes you have one of those moments where you just realize that you're surrounded by brainless dipshits? This song at the height of its success was the biggest such moment I can recall.
That's what sent us all off... You did label those who enjoy it as brainless dipshits via that comment, and that's what gave us cause for some 'discussion'.

Still, I'll join in the lament of really great music not being appreciated by the masses, but enjoy listening to what I enjoy.
And to illustrate the point that I have no claim to 'great taste'... here is some of the artists on high rotation in my media player:
The Beatles, Metallica, VAST, The Waifs, Live, The Whitlams, Bryan Adams, Enigma, Chris Isaak, Barenaked Ladies, The Tea Party, David Gray, Green Day, Era, Bernard Fanning, Dave Matthews Band, Marcy Playground, Regina Spektor, INXS, Vivaldi, Pink, Missy Higgins, Meat Loaf, The Wallflowers.
See... in that small sample of what I enjoy I'm sure most people would have some that they'd go 'Nice' to, some they'd go 'Oh my god, how embarrassing', some they go 'Who?' and so on... everyone has different tastes, different RANGE of tastes. I enjoy many, many other artists than those few I just grabbed off my media player, and within them there are sure to be more cringe worthy artists, more 'who's, more 'nice'... let everyone enjoy the full range of what they enjoy.

^Voting down a song is fine, even saying something like "This song sucks" is fine. But calling people who are all enjoying a song that you don't like "brainless dipshits" is NOT fine, IMHO.
Of all the songs I really enjoy I don't think this a GREAT one, but I do think it's a REALLY FUN song, especially if you're drunk and singing along with your friends. However, if someone truly does believe this is a great song, so what? You say a person like this, just because he or she thinks this is an awesome song, is damaged goods?! Their lives are missing something?! I disagree wholeheartedly.
I'm not having a tantrum; I'm just pointing out that you are a music snob. I take exception to labeling persons as "brainless dipshits" because they happen to like one song. Am I supposed to take that lying down and say "Yeah, I guess I really am a brainless dipshit", or am I allowed a countering statement?
If you don't like your offensive critiques being critiqued, then don't offer them.
I'm one of the few people I know who asks for critique on a regular basis. I'm always looking to improve myself. Up until the comment quoted here, you haven't offered any critique. Spoco did, and I recognized him for it. I may not agree with him, but at least he gave me something I could think on. All you did was tell me I had a sad life because I don't enjoy shit music. Curious, did you tell dag and bamdrew how revolting they are for agreeing with me?
I've also said 3x now that I'm not criticizing people such as yourself who think this is a "really fun song". I have not labeled anyone a "brainless dipshit" for liking this song. You have built a straw man here; falsely representing my statements, playing the victim of a comment that never had anything to do with you.
It seems nobody is reading my half of this discussion which is a bit frustrating. Looking back, I can see the initial misunderstanding, but almost everything said since then has been based on what you claim I think or feel rather than what I've said I think or feel. You're all completely welcome to disagree with me. Quantumushroom I'm not, but it's no rare occurrence that my opinion clashes with the majority. It would be far more productive, however, if everyone based their understanding of my statements on my statements rather than what you say I said.

^HIGHER standards!? Or maybe just DIFFERENT standards? Wow, you're just SO sure that YOUR standards are THE standards that ALL OTHER standards must standardize themselves to YOUR standards. Talk about being full of yourself.
I don't care that you voted against this video. That's fine; everyone has their own tastes. But your smug, superior attitude is sickening. Are we all "brainless dipshits" to you here at VS, or merely just the 25 of us who voted for this video? Have you come here to save us from ourselves; to rescue us from our own substandard tastes? How kind of you to condescend to even talk to us philistines!
Show us the way, Standards Messiah!
In this particular case, HIGHER. This has nothing to do with how I perceive myself so you'll have to find something else to be offended by. I simply expect more from music than a beat and 5-6 sentences repeated over and over.
This song is about drinking and being drunk. The music is mediocre at best. No depth, emotion, talent or creativity whatsoever. Many people are happy with a beat and some words they can sing along with, whether they mean anything or not; the popularity of this song proves that. I expect more.
If you fall into that category, that's fine. The "brainless dipshits" comment was referring to all the people proclaiming this "such a great song!" back in the day. It's not. It's cookie-cutter pop drivel that they play over and over on the radio stations you hear in the office.

^What a sad life you must have.
What can I say? I like to have a connection to the music I listen to. Just because I have higher standards doesn't make my life sad.

Woodchip Industry in Tasmania
You know from the size of the tree trunks where I live, that nothing here is older than about 50 years old. That means that almost everything at some time has been cleared. In some ways,this realization offers some consolation, because to look at, you wouldn't think we live in a barren wasteland.
There's quite a lot of greenery and trees, so it shows that nature can regenerate and regrow. You only have to look at some old photos of the timber-getting days to realise however, that this greenery is but a sad shadow of what used to exist. Trees with trunks so thick 5 men couldn't touch arms around it, were everywhere, then. There's nothing like that anywhere, now.
There's no majesty in nature here, now. Just a struggling attempt at regrowth that gets knocked down every few months with each new housing development that our corrupt and immoral government allows with its stamp of approval.
