Fuck the mods
First off, to be clear, I don't agree with this statement, I think it's the wrong stance.
But after that, I think this is a really an interesting point. [In general I understand a policy of not inciting violence] but if for instance, (purely hypothetically) the country were to fall into civil war (a crazy suggestion I know), wouldn't this policy instantly seem inappropriate?
I mean, encouraging people to join the war effort would be a matter of course, to quash that sentiment and silence those voices seems unethical.
As we slip closer to that possible outcome, surely the time for seriously talking about violence would come before the first shot is fired, right? So where do you draw that line? At what point is a statement which incites violence "violating site rules" and at what point is it "legitimate discussion of impending hostilities".
And I for one, am very interested in how mods feel about this question.

Wow, I have literally never heard that version of the story.
Ok, I've officially employed this method, mixing it with some other suggestions in the thread.
Cha-cha-cha-lava,
La-la-la-chicken!
Oooh chicken jockey
It's a chicken jockey!
Peaches peaches peaches peaches
Woooon-derboy!
I did get a satisfying "no dad, that's not how it goes", but then it resulted in him singing it a few more times... I think I'll just keep it up until it's clear to him he's being trolled, then we'll see what happens.
I don't wanna sound old here...
I got bad news for you, that's basically all we're doing right now.
Oh shit... I don't think he's ready for that level of weird...
Hah, now I just want to know what he'd think of it.
Where would we be without black olives on pizza
We'd have pizza people actually wanted to eat!
Don't get me wrong, if you want to keep more pizza for yourself, then olives are a great deterrent and that's a legit strategy.
If you want to do a real case study, get only two pizzas and put olives on one, pineapple on the other, and just watch.
Brutal...
Right!
Nice try son.
Honestly, this is probably the answer.
"SORRY KID, I CAN'T HEAR YOU OVER MY MUSIC. WHAT? IT'S CALLED RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE, YEAH YOU'D LOVE IT. WHAT? NO, NOT TILL YOU'RE OLDER"
Haha, that's a pretty good plan for whenever he does something annoying. Just "well actually" at him until he stops.
Oh man... That's the dream. I think I've missed my window for that though, at this point the wife is pretty committed to keeping him.
He has a set of shark PJs, and whenever he wears them I sing [his name] shark do do do do do...
And he immediately responds "STOOOOP DAD! PLEASE! I ALREADY TOLD YOU BEFORE!"
And I'll never stop doing it
His uncle took him to see the movie (a real bullet dodged for me).
I saw the honest trailer for it and decided it was exactly as much of the movie as I needed to see.
Wow, you actually managed to find the other song I absolutely hate when he plays!
Our neighbor got him started with undertale and let me tell you... He is not good at it, and man does he get angry when he dies.
But his undertale tantrums are another story, for now let me just express how tired I am of hearing the undertake soundtrack which he plays on loop, especially megalovania!
You know I played that game once, I thought it did some clever things, but never again... That boy has ruined it for me.
I do live for those moments...
That is some damn fine dadding right there. I think this is a perfect plan.
Ok Lemmings look, I love life and I love my family, so I'd hate to have to blow my fucking brains out. So what's another strategy for tuning out this incessant lava chicken?
Alternatively, does anyone have a time machine and enough money to convince Jack Black to not do the Minecraft movie?
They took the wrong one...
Exactly... For Halo 2 and TF2, even if this rig were running at 50% efficiency it could do 200 fps at max settings.
That's annoying, it totally displayed on my side. I think I fixed it now, but kinda ruined my joke...
Oh I see. So you're telling me a military bought overpriced hardware... We should alert the media.
Hey, I have no doubt that these are overpriced poorly cooled boxes, Alienware has always been more form than function. But on the other hand, it's a single vendor and they can just send a machine back if it acts up. I'm betting they don't want their IT people dumping time and effort into custom builds, so having a single vendor is likely the much preferred option.
And I wasn't wrong before, the specs are fine, they'll play basically anything. With suboptimal cooling the fans will be loud, but there's a good chance that won't even matter on an aircraft carrier.
A pizza flavored Hot Pocket is just a calzone...
