But… they’re fuzzy…and they’re cute…and they’re fuzzy…

Thank you, Ruby…you made my point much better than I did. All this nonsense about threads about cooking and flowers is totally beside the point…the two threads are directly related to each other, and if Quiddity had read the first one, she might have seen that. It would be so simple to go and read that first thread, to see if you can figure out what might be motivating people to flame out at Liberal, rather than just jumping in half-cocked, yelling about things you don’t know anything about. And denying that the two threads are related seems pretty crazy when you didn’t even read both of them! How would you know whether they were related or not?
Admit it. You’re a robot, aren’t you?
“What is this thing you hu-mans call…love?”
Unfortunately, no one bothered to speak to my parents before they nick-named me Muffin. Given that I’m a guy, you think they would have found something more appropriate, but no, they liked the name Muffin.
Unfortunately (or fortunately), they were truly wonderful parents, so I won’t be putting anyting untoward on their tombstones despite their giving me Muffin.
You will note I was asking questions and I did actually get some answers, which I appreciate.
Yes, dear.
The obvious solution is to get Red a Fokker and me a flying doghouse so we can battle it out. You get a 20% promoter’s fee for providing the vehicles and location, and he and I split the gate. I’ll even put him over on a screwjob in the first match…say he tampered with my fuel…and we book the rematch on PPV. I’ll go over clean, the fans go home happy, and we make some bank.
Thanks.
I saw the thread where people discussed which forums they visited. Surprised then (but maybe not now) at how many said they avoided the Pit like the plague.
Thing is, some Pittings are hilarious and over-the-top and clearly not meant to draw blood and they’re a hoot. Which is why I didn’t avoid the Pit before.
This was your statement.
This is my question. Is there anything else about which " Even if it’s .000009 per cent" applies? It is a yes/no question. If the answert is “no,” why not?
We do not need to examine the meaning of ‘minuscule.’ We do not need to stipulate whether the 4% figure is accurate, appropriate, significant, imaginary, or whatever the fuck. We do not need to know whether you were being hypothetical, analogical, hyperbolic, or whether you even have a fucking clue what the difference among those terms is. *All we need to know is whether, for *whatever reason you stated the words I quoted, those words apply to any other situation possible in the real world. I gave you some examples (axe murderer, rapist, evangelical minister, politician) but feel free to come up with your own.
**Is the situation, as you describe it, for whatever reasons you describe it thusly, unique, or are there any other situations that you would describe the same way? **Yes or no. Do you understand? Do you think you can do this? It seems very simple to me. Why do you refuse to answer the question?
Thanks. I honestly didn’t realize most people would react that way. Me, I’d think ‘well, I’ve worked my butt off so you’re not talking about me’ or else figure she was talking tough thinking that it would make us want to do better but was full of hot air. But, apparently, I’m an oddball.
That’s good to know, cause if you said you would do something like that, I’d be really down on you.
I believe you. Liberal owned up to having been pretty unpleasant in his time. And I said to him I’d have words with him if ever I saw it.
Given her ability to maintain such high standards of interaction and avoid saying mean things, I’d suspect she was more human than human.
I have no idea what you’re talking about. I read all the posts in the thread that I was in and upon which I remarked. There were about ten at that point.
You keep posting these meaningless waste-of-pixel non-responses. I can’t figure it out.
Wait. You . . . you’re a Turing machine, aren’t you? You’re sending random comprehensible but content-free signals to sustain the illusion that you can converse. I can see no other explanation.
Unfortunately, many people (that I’ve known) really don’t bother to acknowledge the differences and if you specifically ask them, like “How’d faithfool do in that game?,” the response you’d get is “They all suck! Nobody ever tries. I might as well just give up because they’re all so awful and uncoachable.” Even though, beyond a shadow of a doubt, she knew that wasn’t true and you could’ve been the only one to actually do everything right. Or whatever.
Wow, well, I know I sure hope it doesn’t come to the point of you having words with Liberal!
But thanks for adopting the role of word-haver. We sure did need one around these parts, ma’am.
Glad to hear it – I’d hate to be on the receiving end of a BM.
First off, thank you kindly right off the bat. If 'd remember how to blush this might be a good time. Unfortunately, the only way I’m able to do so anymore is by holding my breath for as long as I possibly can. Not just silly, but rather awkward and down right stupid. Only took me fifty years to learn that latter part.
BTW, mighty fine post/advice of yours just a few above my own. No need for humbleness, you obviously carry a bit more than your head atop your neck.
Not to worry. The virtual fight is still on although I’d advice not even try to dream I’ll be wearing tights in it.
Entirely Snoopy’s territory – poor Snoopy BTW.
And there goes my one fan on this Board! A thousand pardons ma’am :smack:
However I do have a twofold defense:
1-I’m not a native English language speaker
2-I tend to stick my fingers in all the wrong places. Whoa there! Wouldn’t want to be misinterpreted. I mean…I’m all thumbs
Take your pick…and give me back my extra “d.” Not like I am in the position to give my meager alphabet away!
Oh? And why is that? I’m not here to play tit-for-tat but rather to voice my opinion, as popular and/or unpopular as that might be.
In fact, I thought that was the premise of your whole “argument.” You know, treat everyone equally regardless of their past history.
You may, of course, PM, IM, MS or, preferably, BJ me the answer. And just so you know, I don’t disappoint that easily 'cept when it comes to BJs.
BTW, Jodi and I don’t pal around much either – in fact rather the opposite. But I’d be careful if I were you to tangle with her. She’s as lucid as they come.
The post of Liberal’s which was linked to in that OP was lengthy, and was from a lengthy Pit thread. It probably wouldn’t have been a bad idea to read the entire post, with all the posts Liberal linked to (there were many), to try to get a handle on the full context of what was going on before you make sweeping judgments. This is considered to be common courtesy, I think, even in the Pit forum.
Look. Read slowly. I get that Lib has been a bad boy. What I have attempted to convey is that I do not grok why that entitles random people whose names are unremembered by me to attack Lib when he posts something which is not bad or nasty. It is a narrow question. It is not ‘why does the Pit exist?’ or ‘why are people allowed to use bad words’ or ‘why do people get indigestion?’. It was, specifically; even if you hate someone, must you attack that person when the person is not behaving badly at that moment.
