Still bullshit. If they’re not a troll and people are interested enough to keep posting, why close it for that reason?
Hey, I’m just trying to understand a phrase I never heard before. Not sure why you think I’m “full of shit”, do you think I really understand but am pretending not to? I can assure you I’m not quite bored enough for that. And although you clarified it somewhat, I have to admit I’m still not sure what you meant, in the Satan context. You say you weren’t calling yourself Satan’s prison-bitch, so I guess that mean you are calling Satan your prison-bitch?
Well, I appreciate being granted the permission to answer.
Yes, I’m an ordained minister of the Universal Life Church.

Well **Revtim ** , I am not familiar with your church and for that I apologize. I don’t mean to offend you , Sir , but you come off as kind of a smartass. I am speaking to you as a man and intend no ill will towards you or your church. Now, don’t take this next part as ass hattery , but my church is The Catholic Church. I know you’ve heard of it and its many works. Some works good. alot, not so much. This I can’t change . The only I can cantrol are my own works . And you know who I get my direction from on that , don’t you ? Jesus. That’s right my friend. The Son of God.
I’m sorry about the permission to answer thing though. That was uncalled for on my part.
I’m thinking the mods might want to close this thread too as that **Redfury ** guy sounds like he’s about to blow a gasket .
Got to go now. Time for a Honey Do .
Does that work better than MapQuest?
Noted, but is it really the mods’ duty to lock threads and thus protect us from things we want to post to?
OK, apparently it is.
Regards,
Shodan
“Good” by what standard? It was sustaining itself through reader interest alone.
Omegaman: "Well I am not going to pat myself on the back nut…"
-I know there is something about this I’m not getting but… back nut?
Please, gentlemen, let’s not make this about IQ.
So lock all bad threads, so only the good threads will be on the front page- thats tantamount to censorship 
There you go again --picky picky picky .
It was a typo. It was supposed to be "on the back , but " I wont pat myself on the back anyway. Thats not my bag . I do what I do and somebody else judges the results.
In that case, can you stop putting spaces in front of all your punctuation marks? It’s really annoying.
Dont pick at him. He’s pissed off . Let him be. I wasn’t joking when I said it. It reminded me of a movie called Sexy Beast. It’s about a retired mobster who lives in Spain and it seemed like that’s where Redfury is from . I could be mistaken though. It wasn’t intended as an insult . Seems everyones really touchy as of late . I see the moon is full . It seems like their are a lot of problems when it’s full . Lock all your doors and windows my friends. You never know who might be skulking about.
Like I said before I didn’t pay much attention in typing class. I apologize if it annoys you. Are you telling me this as a moderator or as a poster. It seems a lot gets by when you piss the right people off , huh ?
Where’s my friend Tommndebb at ? Maybe he could clarify it for my dumb ass .
For the record it would be 2 mods, **fluiddruid ** and Giraffe as well as TubaDiva and her boss, who I’ve not yet been introduced to yet,who think I’m totally in the wrong here. Correct ?
I know you all live in different time zones and what not but if you all would like to ban me or even give me a warning I think I would appreciate your attentions to this matter if you please . Sirs and or Ms or Mrs. .
Respectfully, Omegaman.
If giraffe was telling you something as a moderator, you would know. Believe me.
BTW, when you say something like “where’s my xxx friend at?” you don’t really need the extra “at.” Just saying…
I don’t see any great loss in closing that thread. If Lib and Dio want to talk, let 'em start their own thread or do it through email.
Omega seems like a good kid but I didn’t get the feeling he was contributing substantially to the discussion that arose. Get a new thread, start fresh and we’ll see.
Giraffe is less a moderator and more a legend and demigod of the Dope and the Serengeti. He likes chocolate covered Acacia leaves. Or so I am told.
Your name reminds me of Samurai. Great warriors they were (are) . Keep up the good work.
Ever read that book "Hagakure " ? Have it in my hand right now . Fierce warriors , those people . Read that one from cover to cover just like the Bible. It was chock full of usefull information about how weak men are . Good information to have . Not every religion is bad .Not that I am stupid and think the Samurai were a religious order. (added that–picky,picky,picky) You have to have the guidance of God and the wisdom of men to really be an actual human being. Hope that makes some sense . You seem like a smart guy to me.
Well thanks for weighing in old timer. Never hurts to have another opinion. And thanks for the spelling lesson too. How nice . Just saying …
RedFury, I just don’t get people who taunt those that they believe are “basketcases.” That doesn’t even sound like you. What’s up?
Are we going to exclude posts by “nutters” now or just ridiculing those with a “problem”? As I have explained before, I have been disabled by mental illness since 1989. I take a whole bunch of medications for it. As a result of either the illness or the medications, I sometimes have trouble concentrating, remembering what I’ve posted and writing coherently. (And in rereading some of my posts, I see that I get carried away.)
I’m already aware that some of my beliefs and experiences are scoffed at and misunderstood.
If a moderator (while acting as a moderator) is going to be ridiculing or excluding “nutters” rather than addressing the actual problems with the thread itself, I would like a heads up.
Closing the thread was an unnecessary intrusion. It stomped on the spirit of the Dope.
Thanks DTC.
Sure, I’ll pray for you, Omegaman. In the meantime, I wish you stillness and peace of mind.
