AAAAUUUGGGGHHHHH! I QUIT!!!
Not a soul responded to my 4:06…I’m handing in my planning hat. Biffy, Cobble? Help me here! Cobble…I don’t know when I’ll be back on so if you get any answers outta these folks, you still have my real email address right? My snappy one isn’t working right now. Let me know what happens so I know whether or not to talk to the folks at Ellis.
Okay – here’s a funny incident from my Saturday night. I’ll pose a question to you all.
You are standing on a deserted corner waiting for a taxi to take you to a bar when a drunk youngster approaches you. He wants to give you a hug. Do you:
A) Hug him
B) Extend a hand for a handshake
C) Tell him to get lost
D) Promptly punch him in the stomach
Soo…..same questoin, but the drunk youngster is trying to hug your WIFE (or significant other)
No one — but no one — agreed with you that DIBS’s use of the N word was derogatory. He was, in fact, pointing out that the word was offensive and shouldn’t be used. Yet you can’t let it go and take it as proof of his, this site’s and nearly everyone else’s covert racism.
Now you go and tolerate some one else calling you “boy.” I know if I had written what BHO wrote, verbatim, you would not have tolerated it. And you would have been right. But why do you tolerate it from BHO? Where do you draw the line? I suspect that there is no line — that you will blast those that disagree with you for anything, and you will tolerate anything from those who agree with you, and you have no consistent views or standards on this point at all. You have failed utterly to articulate a viewpoint on this that is anywhere near compelling to anyone, and when pressed with a difficult question, you either blow it up or change the subject. Why is it, exactly, that you hang around this site you hate so much?
I would not have brought this up if you let the n-word flap die, but you can’t stop bringing it up.

oh no – this was a forum thread
your thread was getting out of control so I stopped following around 11am – haha
ugh – why do people insist on picking! -you did hold your own I thought!!!
my brother sent me this today- thought it was just too funny. supposedly a true story.
A teacher passed out lifesavers and The children began to identify the flavors by their color:
Red………………….Cherry
Yellow………………Lemon
Green………………Lime
Orange ……………Orange
Finally the teacher gave them all HONEY lifesavers. None
of the children could identify the taste.
The teacher said, ‘I will give you all a clue. It’s what your
mother may sometimes call your father.’
One little girl looked up in horror, spit her lifesaver out and
yelled, ‘Oh my God! They’re ass-holes!
Biff, Sammy’s is out of this world!!!! I am not crazy about their steaks but the liver and the appetizer still has my heart skip (both for good and bad reasons) everytime I think about it.
DeLepp, I am not much of an outdorsy person but it was a great time. A lot of people were there biking.

Gem- I’ll go look at that- anyone you want me to beat up for you?
And to answer your question- I don’t know. some people just like poking a stick at someone.
What,
No one — but no one — agreed with you that DIBS’s use of the N word was derogatory. He was, in fact, pointing out that the word was offensive and shouldn’t be used. Yet you can’t let it go and take it as proof of his, this site’s and nearly everyone else’s covert racism.
