Are You a Jerk?

[The_Wizard]

Are you good at heart but have a mean streak when it comes to conservatives. Do you ever find yourself drunk at the keyboard wanting to pick a fight(online)with a republican or neo-con. Well now is your chance.

I, The Wizard, post on a conservative website in an attempt to bridge the gap between progressives and conservatives. Usually I manage to hold my own, but after a couple of months now, it's becomes tougher to fight on my own.

If you're quick witted, intellegent, good with facts and have a little time. Jump in and give me a hand. Sign up at:

If you don't the Bushies win.

Thanks

1. i no longer have the energy to point out the obvious to the willfully obtuse.

but go have fun...

[SammyWinstonJack]

12. Agree. nt

[jobycom]

2. You do realize that without question marks, the title is an insult, right?

:rofl:

[RevCheesehead]

4. He posts in Freeper-speak.

A not-so-pleasant side effect of visiting places that should not be named.

[Blashyrkh]

8. You don't start an insult with "Are You"...

[jobycom]

10. Are you ever stupid!

See? :rofl:

Oh come on, it was a joke! :rofl:

[Blashyrkh]

27. That's grammatically a question. Which by definition cannot be an insult.

But hey, I speak English.

[jobycom]

29. No.

The word order is important in English, but not absolute. The word order does not make it a question. The inflection, which in written form means the punctuation, makes it a statement, not a question. Shakespear used the device, and it's not really all that uncommon. Puck's famous line, "Lord what fools these mortals be!" comes to mind.

[Jackpine Radical]

35. What, are you REALLY stupid, or just evil?

[alcibiades_mystery]

11. Are you ever an asshole!

Ahem...

[MannyGoldstein]

3. I Eat The Right For Breakfast

I love battling the Right online - but I always get thrown off for using polysyllabic words and using math, science, and facts. Actually, I get in trouble for this on DU, but I've not been tossed off yet.

I'll give your site a whirl.

[The_Wizard]

5. Sweet

Thanks a heap

[Maddy McCall]

6. Are you a spammer?

Did you come to DU only to recruit people to that dumbass website?

I think I'll pass.

[The_Wizard]

7. No

Just trying to make some headway

[hwmnbn]

9. Naw, I checked out some of his posts......

over there and Wizard is holding his own. On a cursory review, there is the usual RW bullshit but without much of the vitriol that I've seen on other boards.

I'm already on two forums and am spending way too much time on the net. But who knows.....I might do a drive-by post. :evilgrin:

[The_Wizard]

15. Love to see you there

[hwmnbn]

56. I took the plunge....

now to yank some chain... :evilgrin:

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

37. LMAO

:rofl: Yes, Represent!!! MKJ

Are you sure you can weather the utter difference in opinions, :rofl: MKJ

[The_Wizard]

13. OK here it is

Like I tell the neo-cons it easy to live your life thinking your right when you surround yourself with people who think like you. This is the first left site I've posted on. And while a wonderful site... I'm surrounding myself with people who think like me. I'd enjoy it if we took it too them.

[conspirator]

53. Talking to them is like talking to a brick. And I am insulting the brick here. n/t

[BeHereNow]

14. I have sworn not to waste my breath on fools. Rather...

I sit on the banks of the river, and "wait for the
bodies of my enemies to float by..."
As recommended by an ancient Chinese proverb.
Make no mistake- the idiots will go down "shoulder to shoulder"
with the people who actually see the picture clearly.
No need to discuss the situation with them.
I already see the outcome.

BHN

[The_Wizard]

16. I say that all the time...

I sit on the banks of the river, and "wait for the
bodies of my enemies to float by..."

[BeHereNow]

17. Then you are familiar with the saying?

Good for you-
So what are you doing?
Wasting your time like that?

BHN

[The_Wizard]

18. Know thy enemy, know thy self

I feel it is important to learn as much as one can about the opposition in order to know what is expected of one's self. You also don't want to become what you are fighting against.

[Madspirit]

22. I know my enemy just fine.

53 years now. I'm more than familiar with my enemies...
Lee

[Madspirit]

19. Sorry Wizard

There was a time I would have joined right in. My head, my heart and my nerves just can't do that anymore. THEY aren't worth it anyway.
Lee

[The_Wizard]

20. Good luck, dude

[Madspirit]

21. Not a Dude...

Unless you're using it "generically"...

[The_Wizard]

28. Austin, TX...

Pardon, Ma'am. I didn't really have time to check.

[Beausoir]

25. I feel the same way. Never wrestle with a pig. The pig likes it and you just end up getting dirty.

I ignore them, I pity them, I disdain them. And they don't get one single penny from me.


I "vote" with my pocketbook.

[Warren DeMontague]

23. No.

[lonestarnot]

24. Ack. I'd have more fun listening to my faucet drip.

[gr8dane_daddy]

26. I think I'll try it incognito...

I'll go in under the name "ReaganSucksDonkeyBalls". Do you think they will find me out?

[The_Wizard]

30. With these guys...

Maybe with no flashing lights around they'll catch on.

[The_Wizard]

31. Let's try a new approach...

I know the last 7 years have sucked, for all of us. We've all clawed, bit and scratched, while pulling our hair out. I think it would be fun to flood these guys with left wingers. Turn their forum into a progressive playground, with green energy, and soy products for all. How about not even interacting with them and just talk amongst yourselves.

[gr8dane_daddy]

32. Yeah...

start threads about global warming, genocide in darfur, green energy, etc....

that will get them riled up.

[zippy890]

33. kick for the Wizard and his online battle

:dem:

I'm not very good at that sort of thing, but I expect others are here.

[northofdenali]

34. Are you series!!!11!1!!?

I might get my patties in a wade and start catsing asparagus!!111!1!!! Jeez, you'd think I'd at least offer my yachet. In case you think I'm a moran or something. Heres a pitcher:


And i wuz at the march th e other day. There was a bunch a libruls\ there, but I had my sign






Sorry, Wiz, I think I've become ingrained in the DU firewall......... :rofl: BTW, welcome, and don't think I'm catsing asparagus! :hi: I mite even be democrat!! :rofl:

[tavalon]

36. Sorry, arguing with diehard conservative bushbots

is like trying to teach pigs to dance. It doesn't work and it tends to piss off the pig.

[shenmue]

38. Sorry, I'm under doctor's orders not to drink anymore.

:shrug:

[Richard Steele]

39. If I don't, the Bushies win?

Pfft.

[deutsey]

40. Actually, I prefer sticking my head in a toilet and flushing repeatedly

That's about the equivalent of going to that site to "debate."

[conspirator]

62. I now what you are trying to say Dude n/t

[deutsey]

66. Obviously, you're not a golfer.

:hi:

I think the numbers are in our favor. :evilgrin:

[The_Wizard]

45. Thank You

Lately the most is 7

[formercia]

55. It amazes me

that even this many would take themselves seriously.

[Psst_Im_Not_Here]

42. My patience has all but dried up for them

I've battled them on my video on YouTube, my blog, etc. There comes a point when you have to throw up your hands and take a break. I'm currently on a break. In many cases, there is just no point to debate some of them. They won't deal in reality, no refuse to deal in reality. And like my father always told us, "Who's the bigger fool? The fool or the one who argues with one?"

But, have fun and watch your blood pressure!

[Solly Mack]

43. I've a less than nice sarcastic streak that people on the receiving end

see as a mean streak :D

That said...Uh..no

Not by any stretch of logic does it compute that Bushies win if I don't go slumming

[seabeyond]

44. i did a both sides board. i liked the people. got tired of then resorting to name calling

calling me a liar, and refusing to acknowledge simple facts that are easy to validate. i cant do a two sided board anymore

[Maddy McCall]

49. I was there with ya, sea.

What a waste of time that was. Utterly ignorant righties and stockholm-syndrome lefties.

It was an experiment in futility.

[seabeyond]

61. you know

hadnt even thought of it like that with the lefties. but that was exactly the feel.

[porphyrian]

46. No, I'm an asshole. - n/t

[enki23]

47. not infrequently. but i'm also extremely impatient.

and so, while i can definitely be a jerk, i don't have the patience to spend my time being a a lonely jerk in a world of retarded assholes.

[AlCzervik]

48. actually i'm a moran.

[TwilightGardener]

50. 'Fraid so.

[Greyhound]

51. Sorry, checked out your "ask the wizard" thread and found it was just like

every other example of this dreck on the "internetz".

There is no bridge possible since a bridge requires two banks and whenever they are confronted with a reality they don't like they move the shore and the bridge collapses.

There is no debate possible since debate requires a series of cogent arguments and rebuttals, neither of which they are capable of.

Quick wits and intelligence are useless against such pithy replies as "You strated the finger pointing because it is you pussies who do not know how to win. You know when the lat time a dem won, he stuck the suspicious bastards in camps and made sure they knew where they stood. He made propaganda films every Fing day, so please wiz dumbass, remember your history, you are only 39 years old..."

Maybe you believe that you can make some headway with this lot, and more power to you, but I cannot share in that belief. My experience has shown me that even when the ice caps are gone and they're drowning in a tidal surge, their final though will likely be that it is a punishment from God for not killing enough faggots when they had the chance.

[hfojvt]

57. it seemed to me that there was some Gore bashing in the AAL thread

and it was coming from the Wizard.
Gore said he invented the internet?

[Greyhound]

67. There are a couple of other similar examples (sexist remarks IIRC),

I attributed it to "fitting in" with the brain dead crowd. As I said, I think this is a waste of time and energy, but I am loathe to dissuade any less cynical than myself.

[mwb970]

69. I couldn't make it through the "Ask the Wizard" thread.

What is the difference between this hellhole and Free Republic, other than the somewhat better-designed website? These guys treat politics as a religion. They are blind cultists, not pundits. There is literally no possibility of persuading them of anything they don't already have locked into those pea-brains they pretend to "think" with.

It is a waste of time to try to "reason" with True Believer Bushbots. Their twisted remarks would seem funny as hell if this all weren't so tragic for our country.

[Javaman]

52. I refuse to waste my energy any longer on the willfully ignorant.

if they want to keep their fingers in their ears and sing all day long against the truth, they can knock themselves out. but when the shit finally hits the fan and their world crumbles I will be the first one to help them up, laugh in their faces and push them back down, oh and then walk over them.

[madinmaryland]

54. Are you a herk?

Herk - an all-purpose word that can be used as nearly any part of speech (e.g. "Herk you and the herk you herked in on."). Used with some occasion in the DU Lounge. Created by DU'er ZombieNixon.

58. Around conservatives

Yes, big time.

[calimary]

59. Only if I vote republi-CON.

Either I'd qualify as a jerk or I would just have had a lobotomy.

[Decruiter]

60. No thanks! (Get away from me kid, ya botha me!)

[mmonk]

63. I've found it's hard to argue with a belief system.

That's why I think impeachment is important. They will remain the way they are until there is sunlight. I've tried to share facts with some people on the right that are clearly not opinion but they will always see it as opinion (not being arrogant as I seldom just argue politics because I think it is a waste of time, but try to present documented facts but they refuse to believe it).

65. Gays should leave America?

I glanced through a few of the posts there, but the one that caught my eye was this guy who's tired of "gays" whining about being mistreated. Here's what he has to say on the subject;

"If gays don't like America they should leave and move to Iran, who will gas them like the Jews were gassed in Germany. Or perhaps the gays would like prison camps instead."

They're so sentimental. How can we help but dislike them as people when they say things like that?

[The_Wizard]

68. But there is a reason...

They say things like that because it it a well known fact that gays lure new recruits into gaydom with violent video games and fatty foods. A leading study, conducted by top men proved it... and that is good enough for me.
