Punk-ass divisive threads that have nothing to do with politics tonight.
No, I don't think FReepers are invading or Karl Rove has anything to do with it. I think it's worse than that. I think we're generally a bunch of brain-parasite-infested maniacs with affect disorders who can't function above the 30% percentile socially. We have no sense that we're here to advance an agenda and get things done. We habitually ratchet on whatever just because we have no other context in which to do so. None of you are invited to my house because you'd probably piss on the carpet. Thank you, and prove me wrong.

2. while i see where you're coming from..
you're putting up your own rules for what's acceptable. I don't agree with every opinion expressed on here. far from it. But I love DU for being a forum where people express their views, off-the-wall as they may be. It's diversity of opinion, my friend. Anything short of blatantly hateful stuff is freedom of speech. Put those you don't like on ignore or alert the mods if you have to. But as bitter and blanket an accusation as you made against all of us here is uncool.

6. Of course I'm putting up my own rules for what's acceptable.
That's my opinion in the diversity of opinion here. And I tried to make this so exaggerated that people would know I'm not talking about everybody.

7. your subject line gravely confused me n/t
You're not supposed to put "n/t" there unless there is no text in the subject.

5. It is tough to stay focused and almost impossible to
get anyone aroused enough to take action.

But it is a free flowing forum. To really be active one needs to go to other sites. I use DU as an information board and a way to see which way opinions are flowing.

You have not exhibited that.

Please try to do so.

21. But I have exhibited that you are way worse, which is even better.
See post #19.

19. Wait, this one is way worse than that one subject line.
Not your sophomoric repeat that this this phrase is a way to make my point.

I think I know I mean a "yes" but it's all wrong. That is, I think I disagree.

24. I have probably never seen any thing in my life that makes as much
...nonsense as this:

I have now idea what this is about, and I don't think that you do either.

13. Respectfully disagree
The last couple of weeks it has seemed a little...unsettled. I'm hoping it's just a cycle of frustration which will work itself out. I was frustrated myself for awhile but some good people here helped me back to the main focus, which is not to fight each other but to stand against the GOP. There's some nuggets of wisdom to be found on DU, once you prune away some harsh rhetoric.

I see you've been here awhile, so something must have kept you coming back. Hopefully you'll see that again, or at least find some people who you respect and gravitate to their threads.

In any large community there are bound to be a few who feel a need to P in the pool. Heck, even small families have a few of those.

p.s. I had a CT scan, no parasites. :)

15. As for me,
I would not piss on your carpet. I may steal the silver though. Thanks for gobbling my 300th post, you saved me a rant of my own. :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

22. I don't understand why people are so attached to threads...
...that act in retrograde to what people are supposed to come here for. Enough to damage my property. I just don't get it.
