Another Oregon Story
Post 156298 by Oyéah deleted for the following reason: Hey, this is a crappy thing that happened, but not clear why this is a great post for Mefi, and the framing of the post doesn't really explain. -- LobsterMitten

The “Other Side” Is Not Dumb
Post 156205 by mecran01 deleted for the following reason: I'm kinda eh on whether this is great post material to begin with, but I think framing it with a pullquote about an illustrative device in the piece is gonna mean a lot of arguing about that device and the merits of it even if that's not what the piece is mostly about, which just seems like a recipe for not-great weirdness. -- cortex

Can't cut the throat of every cocksucker whose demeanor it would improve
Post 156150 by Brandon Blatcher deleted for the following reason: Eh, I'm excited for Deadwood too but this sort of feels like having-an-excuse-to-say-cocksucker-on-the-front-page as title choices go. -- cortex

Post 156129 by a fiendish thingy deleted for the following reason: Yeah, I get why this is interesting but it's seeming just a bit eeeenh, staring at an unhappy family's painful situation, without any further context.... possibly would be more workable if more context emerges? -- LobsterMitten
Greek wisdom: live with your friends
Post 156123 by BradyDale deleted for the following reason: Hey there, this is a good link but the framing of your post (with the "my personal take" angle) isn't really consistent with how things are framed here... drop us a line at the contact form in the next little while if you'd like to edit, or you can repost tomorrow without that bit. -- LobsterMitten

You Can't Trust What You Read About Nutrition
Post 156132 by mecran01 deleted for the following reason: Hey if you want some help reframing, let us know, but the metacommentary about your own framing makes this a bit weird from the jump. -- LobsterMitten

Sexual assaults in Germany
Post 156071 by mgrrl deleted for the following reason: This seems like an awful thing, but also like the police are only just figuring out what happened, and given the obvious racial/immigration angle, it's probably better to wait to post until more is known and there's more established info and analysis of this -- posting this now just leaves us with "shit that's horrible" and then a lot of loose anger and guesswork which will likely lead to unnecessary fights. -- LobsterMitten
I've been body shamed, have you?
Post 156068 by ourt deleted for the following reason: Sorry, this is a survey with kind of obvious results framed in a way that can only lead to fighting; plus it's positioned sort of weirdly as a promo for Yahoo Health? -- LobsterMitten
