OK, **TSS**. 1. Public debate about foreign and domestic policy esp in the land of the free and the home of the brave has been limited by corporate media conglomeration to who did it and who should be “voted” out of office. It is nowhere more evident than here, among Dopers. Agree or disagree? Next up, 2) ---

81 posts before he presents an actual argument. That’s better than waiting until post #111. Someday in the year 2016, maybe he’ll be able to actually START the thread off on the right foot. Next up, B7. ---

> [@adhay](#): > > IYHO, briefly, WTF is my “argument”? Quite simply, your argument is “I want attention, and will get it by ignoring every standard of conduct the SDMB has in place”. It’s taken you the second page of your FOURTH thread to put that argument forward. The only possible reasons I could see for this are either “severe head trauma” or “troll”. ---

Come on, **TSS** , yes, no or maybe? let’s move this along, please. I know you know what I mean. **BrainGlutton** , you too, you Castro Loving lawyer turned librarian, so you say. Consider yourself (dare I use the word?) pitted. On question 1, YHO is? ---

I might if you laid all your questions out at once. And it’s spelled “brah”, not “bra”. I most certainly do not appreciate being referred to as a piece of women’s underwear. ---

I give him complete credit for turning me around. It wasn’t until I discovered his modest tome, What Uncle Sam Really Wants which I found here [http://www.thirdworldtraveler.com/](http://www.thirdworldtraveler.com/) that I began to put things together.

My mom used to make fried chicken every Sunday. Where’s the buffet? I’m hungry. They had me in that danged interview for 4+ hours today and I’m hungry damnit. Btw- I got the job. Go me! My butt itches. Don’t ya hate that feeling? I think it’s because I need to shit again. But maybe I should eat first so I have more troops lined up to help with the fecal expulsion. Where the hell is the line for the buffet? ---

But I would love to hear you restate your reason for pitting TSS in clear english in one post. I have no problem with the debate but you opened a thread in the pit. So pit him already. I would have the same issue with you had you opened this in Cafe Society, for example - it’s not the right forum. The fact that **Miller** was generous enough to allow you to continue this [del]trolling[/del] baiting, doesn’t mean you are right. Have you noticed no one has rushed to your support? ETA:\*\* Miller \*\*got in before I posted. I see your point but the fact that the OP is getting away with this pisses me off. I enjoy pointing and laughing as much as the next person but lets do it in the right forum. ---
