Damn, Ike. How old are you?

BTW, if you seriously want to warp your children, buy them Disney videos.

Sorry, I couldn’t resist. :dubious:

Hey, everyone cut **Skordopordonikos** some slack! He’s just trying to protect his daughter from them goddamn commie Liberal freaks who love criminals and gays and want to stop ordinary folk like us from owning guns and shooting whatever we want. Dammit, if it weren’t for those Liberals out there, we’d own Iraq, be flooding Alaska with oil and I wouldn’t have to pay any taxes! The blacks would sit where they were meant to on the buses, or rather they wouldn’t ride them at all. What’s more, Little Bunny Foo Foo would have been praying in school and saying the pledge loud and clear every morning and would never have wanted to do shit to the field mice. Not unless they were Liberal field mice, who hate our country and its freedoms, which of course we shouldn’t expect to use.

Skordopordonikos, I hope your daughter grows up to be a hippy. A commie vegan one who loves gays.

Does your son look like you?

You don’t mention being divorced and I have a hard time believing a woman would fuck you twice.

and there I found soul’s piping hot,  
all on the spit a’ turning.”

That Mad Tom. He sure gets around.

**Skordopordonikos** : there are two options about this, please pick the one that applies:

a) You did sing that tripe to your three year old, in which case

Y o u - a r e - a - m o r o n - (to say the least)

or

b) Y o u - a r e - a - l y i n g - t r o l l

in which case, just shut up.

Actually, i’m thinking just a troll.
