If I start a non-political thread in CdS

Rootbeer · Post by **Rootbeer** » Sun Jan 10, 2010 5:42 am

will it get moved to another forum?

Just trying to understand the layout. I haven't posted here for a few years, and I'd like to know the depth and breadth of the field before I start throwing touchdowns IYKWIM

I suspect it is about harry and his "no negro dialect" comments.

Almost as good as biden and his dumbass 'clean niggah' comments.

Sure will be fun to watch the dems wiggle over this one.

Can somebody 'splain to me how this clown got to the top of the congress food chain along with the even more ridiculous skeletor bitch?

He's a Mormon. Born in a small rural town, in bumfuck nowhere, full of inbred family members.

Reid, not Rooty, that is.

So, on top of being a general all around dumbfukk, he's an inbred mormon 'neck?

Let me ask this one more time, dems, How in the fukk does this guy become HNIC of the senate? How the hell does he even make it any higher than local dog catcher?

Just to show my bipartisan spirit, I've asked myself the same question about more than a few republicans, but, none of them seem as ridiculous as dumbfukk harry and skeletor lady.

Re: If I start a non-political thread in CdS

It will turn into one. We're political animals. I mean even the "pile ons" not related to today's issues or social issues are in fact - political.

Here are the current first 10 threads in CdS:

-If I start a non-political thread in CdS
-OK-- all you "sunbelters"---
-Hockey
-Welcome to 2010
-Thomas Hooker Munich style lager
-What is a liberal progessive?
-is anyone here against capital punishment?
-Remember Topanga from Boy Meets World?
-Smilie Addition
-Whatever happened to your Health Care debate?

Currently you have 3 polithreads among them. I think I'm confused...is that not enough, or is 3/10 too many?

Listen, here is the rule of thumb spelled out for the simple-minded and/or those cursed with Utah residency - start whatever thread you want in here and rest assured it's ok unless your nick is Lillian Vernon or Pitkkle.

I've been wondering the the same thing myself. Apparently he has mad backroom negotiating skillz. Or something.

Daschle was a complete failure as a Dem leader. I think they should give Al Franken a try. At least he might shake a few things up.

I know, right. Most of the board thinks we're the same person so we should probably avoid being seen together in the same thread.

This board is full of political threads, posts, opinions, banter, debate, and general political douchbaggery. Tell me you new. I was just poking the board with a stick to see if it would twitch. I didn't mean to pop one of your righteous indignation boils. I'll use a blunted stick next time.

For the record my current* political stance is this: politicians look out for their own and for their contributors. If you are neither, you are screwed. Your only option is this: a. bite on some leather while they rip your paycheck through your arsehole; b. kick the bums out. ALL of them. Don't give me that, "but my politician is good". No he/she is not. They're all self-serving, self-perpetuating, public leeches. ALL. OF. THEM.

Other than that, how have you been, anonymous internet friend?

Funny, poptart, but I hope when people think of moi, they are not thinking about dogs humping stuffed cartoon characters.

I fancy myself more of a Lane Meyer type. Remember in Better Off Dead when the asian guys pull up next to Lane and say, "Truly a sight to behold. A man beaten. The once great champ, now, a study in moppishness. No longer the victory hungry stallion we've raced so many times before, but a pathetic, washed up, aged ex-champion."

Are you settling some long lost cyber dispute between us?

Are you racking up bode$ to spend at the oneboard online store? If you move ten threads do you get a coffee cup in the shape of a maxi pad? You should, you big internet fight winner, you.

I bet if I call him a melting snowman he'll ban me for life. He's kinda sensitive like that. Doesn't take criticism real well. He's fragile. On the inside, I mean. On the outside he's like all tough black leather and rhinestones. Like, mean rhinestones though. Rhinestones that look like bullet holes! And shark's teeth! Yeah. But on the inside he's like an infant Carol Carpenter.

Because it sucks. So do you. Try having something that even vaguely resembles a take next time.

Awesome.

If I understand you correctly, I should have a take that doesn't suck, thereby raising the bar, yes? I should make a personal goal of getting racked, and thereafter checking the scoreboard? Should I bring the juice and get the jungle blowing up? I'm all about all that stuff. I'm loaded with witty catch phrases that don't mean anything. For example, the blim flam in this thread is vumpitty bizzle. I'm gonna give myself a tongue for that one. That was some straight-up solid-gold bizzle on my part.

Not sure I've ever seen a thread get trots'd after 30 some posts and then rescued. That was quick.

Rootbeer reminds me of Dog, but I saw no reason for this thread to be shitcanned.

Honestly, I haven't read you in well over two years, but what I remember from 2007 is not a single interesting or thought-provoking opinion from you. You were always caustic and ugly in print, but that's no feat and no reason to celebrate. Now you have m0d powers to help you get over which must help tremendously since you couldn't argue your way out of a stiff wind two years ago.

My integrity got the better of me and I read your last 50 posts or so. You have some good opinions. I recant my earlier statement and adjourn this banter until you say something I dislike. Fare thee well.
