Sometimes I feel like I don’t even know you anymore. :sobs:
PS: Neither of you can call me Shirley.
Because being as insulting as possible while keeping juuust within the rules is what passes for “debate” on the Straight Dope.
New Mexico? Wherever you live, it’s in the southwest somewhere. I don’t really care.
And fine, you don’t support the Tea Party, you’re simply a small government, nominally “independent” libertarian.
I’m not going to tell you again. If you want to argue politics, go to GD, and if you want to bash xtisme, go to the Pit. His politics and yours aren’t relevant to this discussion.
Not sure who that was directed at, but if it was at me, it is misplaced. I started this thread as an honest question as to why certain insults were banned and certain other ones (that seemed equally insulting, to me) were not. I think Marley answer the question adequately.
We’ve had several Pit threads decrying the nasty tone in GD, but I don’t think any of them has moved the tone one mm in the civil direction.
Don’t be such a whig, Marley.
At least you didn’t say Whigtard.

I’m a fully ‘independent’ ‘libertarian’, though I’ve voted Democrat more than Republican (but Independent more than either) and have zero connection with the Tea Party. You do realize that the Tea Party and libertarian leanings are not synonymous, right?
Why bring it up then?

Because I don’t like the southwest. The people who reside there seem to have nutty beliefs.
Your OP? Reasonable.
What threads of this nature sometimes turn into though are giggling schoolboy “What about this word, huh?” competitions to see who can be the naughtiest child in the room.
Pardon me. Would you have any Grey Puopon?
I’m sorry-I left my Grey Poupon in the other Bentley.

/Nigel Powers There are only two things I can’t stand in this world. People who are intolerant of other people’s cultures… and…the Dutch!

I think we should ban the word “Puopon” as it is clearly an underhanded slight at aficionados of Grey Poupon.
I thought you retired?
From having opinions? Dream on.
Closed. This is just too stupid. Red Barchetta, take your issues with Czarcasm to the Pit in the future. You’ve been told that before and the next time you drag it into a thread where it doesn’t belong, you’re going to get a warning if I get there first. We have rules about harrassing other members and you are pushing your luck.
