I agree with all these quotes, just as I mostly agree with Mr Trihs.

Hey, if you want to play Caliban to **Der Trihs** ’s Prospero, don’t let my pity dissuade you. 😃

I _always_ think of\* Lord of the Rings\* when I see the word “pity”. Then, I almost immediately think of this:

"He would have finished him off then and there, but pity stayed his hand. _It’s a pity I’ve run out of bullets_, he thought, as he went back up the tunnel. . . " Bored of the Rings

You know, I think that the USA has done some generally over the top fucked-up shit. Not everything we do, of course, but enough mind-blowingly bad shit that it’s really hard to exaggerate the vileness of it.

If I think about it too much, _I_ want to rail against it. Rail in ways that would make **Der Trihs** sound like Betty Boop.

So fuck it. Fuck it all. You can’t defend what our nation has done in the last 5 years with regard to our shitting all over civil and human rights. You can try, but you’ll just sound like you’re deep-throating yard-long logs of steaming feces straight outta Cheney’s ass.

What? I’m sorry… _what??_ I can’t understand you… you have to come up for air sometimes! C’mon… I _know_ you’ve done this before! But, maybe you want to die like this. In Hell’s Heaven–your ecstasy everlasting–

DAMMIT! \*you know the Vice President’s digestion isn’t what it used to be!

That’s about what I do. I agree with the pitting as well, there isn’t enough room on the Internet to quote all of the Der Trihs hate.

**Der Trihs** reminds me of the main protagonist from **Air Force One**. I was going to say **Die Hard** , except Hans actually had style.

Sci-Fi & Gaming threads, mostly. Also general CS silliness. I notice because when he’s not “on message”, **DT** is quite unremarkable (in a good way).

They are, to be sure, critical of America, and of those who defend it unconditionally, but nowhere do they even hint that America is the “font of all evil.”  
[/QUOTE]  
They hint that because he never criticizes any other country. We never hear him slam Poland, for example, for demanding a reference to Christianity in the EU 50th anniversary declaration, or Iran for electing scum like Ahmadinejad, or Zimbabwe for torturing, or Saudi Arabia for being “rabidly religious”. It’s just America, America, America, leading one to conclude that he has a unique hard-on for our own special brand of evil.

As he’s said before, it’s because America is where he lives, and America is what he knows. He has said that he’d probably be the same about whatever country he lived in.

[QUOTE=lokij]  
_looks up from shooting Iraqi babies in the head_

Oh! Hi there, you caught me during some down time. I’m a Der Trihs style American and I’d like to speak on behalf of my nemesis, if I may. When I’m not at church praying to God to smite homosexuals and Europeans or polishing my SUV with a rag soaked in the blood of poor people I sometimes feel that I have it too easy. I mean, destroying the world and teaching my children to hate minorities is fufilling but sometimes life can seem a little hollow without a challenge. Luckily for me and my cabal of fat surburban republicans we know we can always count on Der Trihs to counter our evil plans at all times. That he only seems to work through insane ranting on a moderately sized internet message board might seem a bit unbelievable, but it is true my friends.. soooo very true. So keep that do-gooding scalawag around, we need a good chuckle to keep up our stamina as we prop up israel to bring about the second coming. God bless you all.

Meh. If it wasn’t the U.S. stirring up shit, it’d be someone else, possibly with even less class. And if it wasn’t Der Trihs blathering on, it’d be someone else.

[/QUOTE]  
That’s all well and good but it’s now become boring and predictable. He’s like a nightclub comic that hasn’t changed his material in 10 years. Any time someone says something complimentary about the US, **DT** jumps in to rip into the country.

**OP** – Places to see in Missouri?  
**Normal poster** - Branson is a lot of fun for the family.  
**DT** – And don’t forget the Trail of Tears state park that commemorates the typically genocidal ways of this vicious country. The US is always seeking to oppress and destroy minorities. It should be destroyed! Death to America!

Obviously I lack the mental impairment necessary to convey his twisted mindset.

I really wish **DT** would move to another country. Not because we don’t want him here but because he needs to update his routine.
