Sure, but he doesn’t seem to think there’s anything wrong with that.
In that thread he expresses disappointment that things have gotten so PC that (young) girls can’t take compliments (from men literally old enough to be their dads) about their tits.
Again: a 7th grader. Should have felt flattered. 
ETA he does make the point that it would be a flattering reference from an older relative to a 15 year old girl. Cause that’s not skeevy at all.
I would shake your hand, but I fear my finger bones would be crushed by your manly grip.

See, ya got yer basic Rooster-Tail, then there’s yer Scarlet Macaw and yer Crested Howler. But yer true conny-sewer now, he’s more about yer Sump Pit, yer Wide Sargasso Sea or yer Slough of Despond. But fer yer actual ah-fishy-o-nardo, now, lemme show ya the Hanging Gardens and the Trapper Keeper…
[Idle curiosity]Has there ever been anyone so reprehensible on the Dope that someone wouldn’t defend them? Because apart from maybe Cesario, I don’t think so.[/idle curiosity]
Minkler?
As the seventh grader in question I can tell you it was wildly inappropriate way back in 1982. It made me feel extremely self conscious and very uncomfortable. I have yet to meet a single person who I told this to who does not think my dad’s friend was a complete asshole. Don’t make remarks in public about a teenager’s breasts at all. Ever. This is not a difficult principle for most people to follow. It isn’t mania over pedophiles or jailbait as you put it. It is decent behavior that should be automatically expected of grownups.
Admire her large blue eyes. Complement her pretty copper hair. Tell her she plays badminton well, works nicely with others or gets excellent grades. Don’t fucking stare at her breasts and make remarks about them.
Jeez.
I think even he had people who said we should just “listen to what he has to say” and “well, he says he hasn’t hurt a child, blah blah blah.” Takes all kinds.
It’s sad that a grown-ass man has to be TOLD this. God!
Good lord that dude sucks.
His weird asides/ramblings are what get me. It’s like if Grandpa Simpson were more out there about his sex life and also neocon.
“I don’t understand these folks in Ferguson burning down their own businesses. Dorian Johnson starts off his day buying breakfast from McDonald’s. Way too expensive. Money is an issue for low-income people, you know. Actually, for my family, too. We spent way too much on fast food last week. Eight dollars on hash browns. No, wait, ten–forgot we went on Monday, too. Well, anyway. Point still stands. Whatever it were.”
Or…“Women shouldn’t get vagina surgery. Seriously–this trend is insane. Your rooster combs are okay with me, ladies. Actually, nothing better than lightly tugging on a rooster comb with your teeth to stimulate the clit. That’s some good eatin’. What were we talking about again?”
I really hadn’t realized what a dumb fuck this moron was until I read this…

Especially the part in his OP about rooting for these lowlife criminals. (see post #151 for a quote of the verbiage in question)
Did anyone even bother to read the OP? Did you see the words Murderers, Dangerous and this sentence, “[I**]I do hope they don’t injure anybody while they are free.***”
How could you miss that in such a short OP? My concerns for public safety while free is crystal clear. How could I have expressed it any more clearly for you?
Stick It to The Man. TPTB, The faceless, anonymous, big boss. *Everybody *understands that expression. It’s only been in use for fifty years. I was referring to sticking it to the prison system. The warden and jailers that make life hell for prisoners. Can you imagine the look of shock on their faces when they found those empty cells? The prison break hurt nobody. It was completely non-violent. The only thing that got hurt was The Man’s pride.and arrogance
Cop Killer. Why you can’t separate the prison break from their criminal past is beyond me. The prison break was brilliantly planned and executed. That almost certainly involved outside parties. * I’m acknowledging that*. A tip of the hat. Well played. Now its our turn to hunt these fuckers down and throw their sorry asses back into prison. Cuomo just put a $50,000 bounty on their headsfor information.
Did I really have to spoon feed this to you? Wasn’t it blatantly obvious from my OP when I immediately called them murderers? Theres a long tradition of acknowledging extraordinary crimes. The Great Train Robbery 1960, in England is one. Brilliant plan, executed by a gang of 15 men. Every damn one of them paid the price and went to prison. I and most of the world that follow crime are giving a tip of the hat for a brilliant plan and execution. Knowing they were hunted down.
What is so damn horrible about creating a mythology around violent criminals and cop killers? You are aware I hope Jesse James, Cole Younger, Bonnie & Clyde, Dillinger, Machine Gun Kelly, Al Capone, Pretty Boy Floyd all killed people? Several of these people killed cops. There’s still books and movies about them. Do you think I’m the only one that was impressed by this prison break? Do you realize a movie will almost certainly be made about this audacious act?
I’ve made mistakes in others posts. Hell with over 1600 posts here its bound to happen. I trip up over my own tongue. Say stupid shit that I later regret. It happens to everybody willing to post and risk getting their ass pitted. But I was very careful in my prison break thread to say from the very beginning in my OP, these two guys were convicted murders and I expressed concern for public safety. I did not in any way imply that I admired them as people. They are fucking murders!!! I admire their daring prison break exactly the same way people today still study and admire the Alcatraz prison break.
correction, 16,747 posts. :eek: Damn, I had no idea how that number got so high. But thats what it is.
You’re still a dumb fuck. I’m sure the warden’s concern is more about the menace to the public than his hurt pride.
Fucking idiot.
correction, The Great Train Robbery was in 1963. Yes it inspired multiple movies. Crime and criminals inspire movies.
The 5 min edit window is why my post count is so high. Every time I have to correct something its yet another post.
Then don’t make mistakes. Or preview. Or don’t post.
I wonder if it’s similar to my fascination with conspiracy theories - at a temporal distance. If it’s conspiracy theory that actually hurts people, then I find it disgusting (or at least distasteful.) The Sandy hook denialists - that’s causing emotional pain to people who have suffered enough. But historical or non-harmful theories? Let’s discuss! Who shot JFK? Was Shakespeare really someone else? I may not buy your theory, but I’d like to hear it.
This great escape is NOW. People may really get hurt by murderers on the loose. The Great Train Robbery or Alcatraz? The pain is in the past. Admire away. But don’t admire people who could very well go on to murder more people.
I agree with you on the breakout. They are evil men, and they should be in prison, and I really hope they don’t kill anybody while they’re on the run, or anytime, really, but I can’t help but grudgingly respect the audacity and success of that escape.
