That wasn’t a very funny OP.
The bits where mswas is going on about how poor and misunderstood he is, on the other hand…
mswas:
A lot of people on this message board have no trouble understanding me either and have come to post about it. It’s funny how often I get these pile-ons where several people will come in and prove that they understand me just fine and the people who don’t understand me will ignore that and continue to act like they represent ‘everyone’.
Look up posts by Miller containing my name. You’ll see that he understands me just fine a lot of the time some of the same people in this thread are piling on as they do.
If only they’d “read your posts” instead of “responding to keywords” they wouldn’t misunderstand you so consistently. It’s obviously their fault.

I will close the thread as requested because the it wasn’t started in the Pit. If anybody wished to continue whipping mswas , they’re free to start their own thread.

Interesting, I have never heard of that, but of course it makes a lot of sense.
That’s why I claim that most of my detractors despite arguing with me daily don’t actually read my posts, because I am pretty much a straight up liberal, I agree with most of their political stances and say so explicitly. The one I don’t agree with is, “Conservatives are all morons and there is nothing of merit in any conservative position, conservative is a synonym for retard and liberal is a synonym for super smart intellectual elite especially if they post on the Straight Dope!”, so because I actually defend conservative positions from time to time people just respond to the keywords and attack me as though I actually am espousing such things. For instance a lot of these knuckleheads participated in threads with me where I talked about why I was voting for Barack Obama and yet they still think I hate Barack Obama.
I can understand how people who are totally unfamiliar with my posting my have trouble discerning the OP, but others who I tussle with on a regular basis should know better.
On another message board I post on where the ratio of liberals and conservatives is about equal and people actually read my posts they get on my case for swinging hard to left after Obama was elected when I used to be pretty centrist.
Wow, aren’t you full of yourself.
You really think that people remember all the posts you ever wrote that they read, and that they remember who said them? Because they don’t.

I expect that people who talk to me every day would remember them yes.
See? Now this thread is worth coming to. Several times over if you have the stamina.
mswas , where were you in the thread in which I asked this question ?
