Jesus, lissener...

Guess that might be the end of it, but,[b[lissener**, I’m left wondering how exactly you did kick her in the cunt? Just told her she couldn’t have a refund? What happened there? Did she bend over with the wind kicked out of her sails? Stand gape-mouthed at your tour-de-force reasoning of why certain movies are beyond question in the renting? Basically, I think if you rent a movie, you pay for it, and damn the resulting mental torpedoes.

Yet, I see the offense Twickster saw; it seems like an uneccessarily nasty hyperbole in preface to a OK thread about movies you like. Though why ya would call everyone an asshole who doesn’t agree seems pretty immature.People’s tastes differ, that simple. I’ve worked plenty of retail jobs where ya get crazy-making customers, but never want to kick em in the Nads for a complaint.

Oh lord, his other thread’s topic idea was inspired by the Scarecrow Video Movie Guide and is an amusing idea for a thread. If you’re using his thread topic to reinforce that bullshit “lissener calls everyone an asshole who doesn’t agree with him” meme that’s really reaching. Everyone who posted a movie title in that thread is just as “guilty.”

Good thing I did no such thing then. In any case, for clarification, you should actually read the OP. And I’ll add a couple of visual aids.

ETA: dang, slower than Eq again.

I wouldn’t call him a misogynist-I’d call him a misanthrope.

Just don’t call me late for dinner!

Always one to own up to my own shortcomings; I did read the OP, and the whole thread, and, now see that my response was colored by your use of kicking her in the cunt. So, perhaps I’m old (2 years older than you from what I read in the thread), but why is kicking someone in the cunt at all funny? I’m not a prude at all, and like movies at the odd/edgy spectrum, but that phrase made me feel like: “So this uppity Black guy comes up and complains about a movie— 'course, I lynched his stupid ass.” That’s the best approximation of my response. Don’t use smileys often, but

:eek:

Please explain it more, if possible.

Just read the linked OP. And posted to the thread.

I don’t get the rage. lissener was trying to get everyone to agree, I thought. That wasn’t nice?

On preview: But why does he have a blank post?

ETA: Oh, thanks Q.E.D.!

Highlight it.

ETA: And it’s hard to get people to agree when you poison the well up front by saying that people who don’t agree are assholes.

And now he’s going to lie and say he did no such thing.

Not much to explain; it’s already been admirably deconstructed upthread by** lavenderviolet**. It was hyperbole intended as humor. It was actually a quote, but I can’t remember where I heard it. But it made me laugh, whoever I stole it from.

It’s because you’re gay, dear :slight_smile:

OK, I see what you’re saying,but with the particular customer, where did that go?

Well, as to my post in that thread, I’d have to agree with him. :stuck_out_tongue:

Just very slightly more seriously, I don’t ever go to Cafe, so I don’t know what the norms are there, so maybe I’m using Pit norms to compare inappropriately.

I will admit that the use of the C-word in that context squicked me.

Sorry, I’m a Tigger kinda guy.

For most people here, sure. But with lissener, you figure he the reaction isn’t all the ridiculous. I’m sure he really wanted to kick her in the cunt for disliking a movie he gives his approval to.

Except lissener would use the word “nigger” instead of “stupid.” But, hey, we’re all too enlightened to be offended by words, right?

You need to back this shit up. You can’t say this kind of thing, even here, pulled entirely out of your ass.

Either retreat with your citeless tail between your legs, like you said you’d do, or back this outrageous shit up. I have never said anything here that justifies such a charge.

You, twix, are the single human being–and you can imagine, I’ve been at the receiving end of more than my share of namecalling–who has ever even suggested that I’m a misogynist. 45 years, millions of heated arguments, real life and online, no one has ever called me a misogynist. And to extrapolate even further and call me a racist?

Serious, twix, find a cite or see a doctor.

I bet Chefguy says exactly the same thing about you. Ring any bells?

See a doctor? Seriously?? Because she thinks you’re a giant dick? Oh, fuck you, you petty little man.

In fairness, Jesus has been used pretty commonly for years in everyday language and very few worry about its use. The other word is stil not used in polite or everyday company.

Sorry, badly phrased. I was agreeing with elelle that your phrasing, as reported by you, had the same effect on me as if you’ would have had an encounter with a black person and described your reaction by using the word “nigger.” Thus the “would” in my post. I’m not saying that you have actually used that word, and I apologize for setting that hypothetical as though you had.

And with that, I’m out of here, not to return – because if I’m serious about not letting you piss me off, this seems like the logical place to start.
