Haha- fuck you Oafrah!

Of course! It all makes sense now: Wee Bairn is Oprah’s Peter Morris!

There is a distinction between giving in to peer pressure and simply taking good advice. Clearly, you have yet to learn this.

I was simply noting that it makes you look petty and small-minded; if you can live with that, it’s no skin off my nose.

If that gave you belly laugh, you must shit yourself watching “According to Jim”…

Do tell, why is it taking good advice to stop calling her Oafrah? Is she going to sense it and smite me? Unless she’s on this board, who is it harming?

Did you not understand that part where I noted it makes you look petty and small-minded?

You, though you lack even half the wit to comprehend why.

It was a petty rant and is admittedly a very old, very petty gag. But it amuses me. And like I’m gonna type a name as stupid as Oprah fifty times?

You would think after eight count em eight attempts at humour in this post, that you would have succedded at least once.

I read philosphy. Idiots don’t read philosophy.

quoting a funny movie don’t make you funny.

Sure they do. It’s called community college. I keed I keed!

I’m just glad I didn’t ten responses thinking that post was serious.

But this thread is evidence of an intersting dynamic on this board. You make a post that goes against the collective mindset, and not only do 100 people jump in to call you stupid, but with some weirdly heightened vitriol. It’s not like I said the Holocaust never happened, I said I don’t agree with one aspect in the life of a famous person who wouldn’t spit on me if she walked by. And probably 2 of the 100 even give a shit about Oprah, its just here’s achance to show how smart I am, or witty or whatever.

Add to that posters like** miller** who exposed himself as a chickenshit by railing on me for my comments, and then when Dio at least partially agreed with my sentiments what did he do? He then asked Dio a question with no venom, very politely, full of repsect- and why? Because he’s too gutless to do battle with Dio, who would rip him another asshole (I don’t blame him though, I wouldn’t want to battle him either.) Point being, same “crazy” view, two different posters, one gets five pages of assualt, the other polite respect.

And miller I’ll supply your response so you don’t have to bother- **Dio ** is unquestionably deserving of your respect, I am not. And I agree 100%. He is my personal favorite, one who I have never disagreed with his posts, so I agree with you on that apsect, but the point still stands. Person A says the Holocaust never happend, put him the loony bin. Person B who you like/fear/whatever says it, oh, uh that’s different.

You didn’t present it properly.
File for future reference.

Plus it did nothing to bolster your case.
File THAT for future reference, too–in future, when come back, bring relevant cites.
And pie.

Why? Be specific. Show your work.

In spite of repeated requests, you have yet to produce a cite that shows that she in fact DID claim “over and over” to be “on top of the daily events”. Your Wiki article says nothing like that.

“My post is my cite”? Uh huh.

And may I ask–if you despise her so much, why do you watch her show every fucking day?

So you’re changing your OP? You are no longer Pitting her for running a pedophile’s paradise–now you’re Pitting her for spending too much money on one of her schools? Fine, fine, whatever, just trying to keep the OPs straight here.

Yes, let’s not discuss anything in the abstract here, because that would be, like, debating, and we can’t have that–we’re here to vilify a plutocrat, dammit!

[applauds]
Preach it, brother! :smiley:

<puts weight on back leg; prepares to throw insult>

you know that wee bairn is an anagram for** ewe brain**?

My work here is done.
<dusts off hands>
I suggest you go to Africa, work at this school and suffer 300 thread count sheets–they ain’t all that comfy.
Why are the poor not allowed minor, trivial luxuries? Is it bad for their character? How very Victorian of you.

Why do I strongly suspect you won’t see the burning irony inherent in this?

Ah. And now we arrive at the inevitable “you’re all against me!” whine.

:dubious:

What you said was:

Hardly the minor quibble with one aspect of Oprah’s life that you suddenly seem to think it was. Sounded more like borderline libellous “Oprah is lazy, stupid, a braggart, a liar, a poser, and an enabler of molesters who eschews personal responsibility for her actions”.

“Disagreeing with one aspect of her life” would be more like, “Geez, why does she wear those friggin’ big COLLARS!?”

Oh but I do. Most of my latter posts are phrased to take the piss out of others who think they’re so clever, outwitting some drooling idiot.

eleanorigby is an anagram for big- something. ddg the school incident = one aspect of her life.

but again- because its wasteful! She can buy them all solid gold toilets, its her money, but I can call it wasteful if I want- whats so hard to get about that?

and why is she taking “full responsibility” for something not at all her fault miller?

and ddg, I would love to respond one by one like you did, but I taint smart enought to figure out to how do it that way, and writing it down would be time consuming.

What, are you handcuffed to your grandmother?

Is every room in your house equipped with a TV that plays nothing but the Oprah show and lacks the ‘off’ button?

How utterly helpless are you, that you can’t choose to not watch a show you hate??

At work my sup watches at the same time I’m on lunch. She’s a huge fan, so I can be an asshole and ask her to turn from a show she loves, or I can tolerate it, or I can sit in the car for an hour. Being a tolerant person (rare in this post), I watch it while making snide comments- about her weight, her being in the closet, etc.
