sincerest form of flattery on the Poli-Board

[Ibanez]

Observations: There's a whole bunch of ditto heads that all follow each other

As for the conservatives

JohnstOng - Darwinian straight
Cluck - mentally challenged but straight
OL FU - Grandpa straight
89hen - Rock solid straight
AZGF - oozes machismo and very straight
CID1990 - straight for a guy from the South
T-man - Cerebral and straight
ASUG8 - A gentleman's straight man


The Liberals

Expandos - queer, like a 3 dollar bill
dbackjon - Ru Paul gay
Grizalltheway - Drug addled and beaten daily gay
Jelly - Perez Hilton gay
Kalm - This gay could be converted
Ibanez - Facebook friendly gay.

FIFY

Is "facebook friendly gay" like, the gay you can take home father?

And spot on with ASUG8. We should all aspire to his level.

[HI54UNI]

No love for us “fuck the world, we hate everyone” types like me and DSU?

There are a bunch of you guys that I rarely take issue with your posts
I almost never find anything too disagreeable - You and Ivy and DSU are easy to work with

(Except lately Flaggy has gotten my attention)

But for example:
89hen and AZ can post ONE SHORT SENTENCE and send me over the edge... They've got mad skillz
and as stated JohnstOnge absolutely launches me into another dimension

So you're saying they get really good mileage out of their posts?

I'm generally annoyed with most of Chizzang's economic posts.

[89Hen]

I've adopted Ivytalk and 89hen as my curmudgeonly uncles. I imagine William F. Buckley when I'm addressing them.

Cripes, I'm the same age as you asshole.

You're an engineer. Engineers only make sense to other engineers.

I think that was pretty much spot on. Except you and I won't get along if all you drink is coffee.

I'm good with most people. AZ and 89 are affirmed Conservatives and I'm generally appreciate their point of view.

Cleets was spot on with dback. He'll go down in flames defending the liberal ideology, even if that meant he had to defend skinning old people so that young people could stay warm.

Cluck & T-man, while interesting and raise many good points (that's difficult to admit) always have to attack the poster. Cluck does it more on the sly than T-man.

I identify more with liberals but even liberals are too much for me. In the past 9 months, my views on abortion for instance, has shifted dramatically.

I find it amazing that some of you go into to such detail and conduct research to post on the internet. I hardly do (and I guess that's to my discredit.)

The only post that I can consistently agree with on most topics, and when I read his posts actually come away with some useful information is Cid1990.

Cleets, you do some good work but you are exhausting.

The rest of you, eh. Step up your game.

[CAA Flagship]

Two out of three aint bad Cat.

Which two?

[ASUG8]

I enjoy Cleet's haikus most of the time. He a master troll when he wants to be - I don't always agree with him but he makes a lot of valid points. Fortunately I was able to have a beer with him back in the day before he went on the wagon.

It's all ball bearings.

[89Hen]

I'd love to take some credit for that, but I have a feeling some other life event had some impact.

It certainly has. We're nearing the goal line.

Exactly why waiting periods for abortions are a good thing.

You're even against waiting periods??

And I enjoy your new agey outlook on things. I find your posts a good challenge: wonderful surface thinking dressed up to look like something more.

You're surprised?

[Chizzang]

Why thank you Joe...
And I enjoy your antiquated Iron Age view of the world as well
Which you also dress up to look like common sense (but miss woefully)

You should write a book, dude -- a collection of the best New Age cliches about the Christian outlook.

To be honest Joe, from outside your cult, and it is a cult, it's very clear your spiritual life indicates almost a complete abandonment of reason and common sense. It's this fact alone that pretty much negates any semblance of dialogue with you. I think it was Thomas Paine or Derek Jeter that said it pointless to argue with someone who has abandoned reason, it's like administering medical care to the deceased. Or something like that.

I of course don't have a problem with you or the fact you're in over your head in a archaic, cannibalistic, ancestor worship cult that glorifies suffering and punishes success and achievement. It makes for great drama. Cleets though wisely heeds Jeter's advice, which you often misinterpret as "running away."

Christianity already has a few books...
But it is true Christianity needs a new one because they (as a whole) almost entirely ignore their books



The old joke is still true
"You'll always know when you're arguing religion with a Christian
because they'll be the ones who know nothing about the Bible"

Serious question: is there anything in the bible regarding religious arrogance?

[BlueHen86]

The Poli-Board has reached a point where it's the same people saying the same thing while arguing about the same stuff over and over again.

The board needs to evolve, there is certainly no intelligent design here.

[houndawg]

Up for discussion:
Political Forum Flattery

Example: Stalkers
I follow (stalk) Johnstwrong around and contradict everything he posts (regardless of content)
This is clearly a type of "Forum Flattery" even though it is childish

Example: The dishonorable Debaters
D1B and JoltinJoe argue till way past bedtime and long after the argument is actually over
Its not actually stalking because they create threads TO EACH OTHER

Example: The Suck-up
This is the guy who - without fail - agrees with everything some other guy posts
Be it political or otherwise

I know how JSO feels, I got 89hen out there, brooding and hating............. envy is such an ugly emotion...
