Small Town Mayor Steals From Dead Marine, Cheats Marine's Mother, Defies Courts.

http://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/9056473/detail.html

That’s what’s wrong with small-town politics! Anybody else, & he’d be rotting in jail right now, for fraud! Because he’s the Mayor, he ain’t cooling his red monkey’s ass in a cell. :mad: :mad: :mad:

I wonder just how many people who are buried by his funeral parlour still have their Wedding Rings, when they fill the hole in? :dubious:

Do you just look for shit to piss you off?

No, you fucking Astro-Monkey, I do not. (& I’m giving you the benefit of the doubt, by using the prefix “Astro”).

I usually look for items of intrest. Like the one in THIS THREAD.

You just need to look outside the Pit, occasionally.

I guess I don’t understand why he hasn’t been arrested.

Wow. Why is this putz not in jail?

What do you have against Astro-monkeys?

You need to look outside your mom’s basement occasionally. That way something could happen to you and you could post about that in the Pit.

I did look. And guess what I found?

That puddle of sunshine, rainbows, buttercups & unicorns named askeptic.

And I mean that in a good way, you bet. :dubious:

Ignore the buttercup.

Millions do. :smiley:

I think I’m missing something here. What is askeptic up to? Humor, beligerance, or medication?

I’m not up to anything. I just asked a question. Bosda’s the one who started frothing about astro monkeys and rainbows.

Honestly, we do this every time Bosda posts one of his little “Look at this, its so outragious” pit threads.

There are assholes everywhere, stealing from soldiers, raping kids, beating dogs I just don’t see why some people feel the need to post them regularly. I am not saying it should never be done but some people get a little one trick ponyish about it.

So, no belligerence or medication just expressing my opinion, last time I checked that is allowed.

Sure, it’s allowed. It just makes you look like an asshole to uninformed outsiders.

I guess I don’t mind the one trick the pony does.

I can’t speak for what askeptic is up to, but I can say that I agree with his sentiment. It appears to me, and has for some time, that Bosda has essentially appointed himself the SD Newscaster, trolling the internet for outrageous (humorous, horrific, whatever) stories that he can post just to… I don’t know. Just to post? Just to keep us in the know? The OPs tend to be the same thing, over and over- link, snippet, maybe a line or two commentary, but nothing really insightful, and rarely something that would directly impact him, that would be comething I could understand him getting emotional enough over to take the time to post about. Then he leaves it up to others to provide the commentary. I have this weird sense that he posts, then sits back to watch everyone make his thread for him, nodding sagely and thinking “I made that happen. All those people are communicating about an issue because of me.” Like an MC or something. It doesn’t take any thought or planning or real effort at all, and I personally find it a bit insulting… like each one of Bosda’s posts has an undercurrent of “Dance, monkey!” to it.

It’s a shame he didn’t include his sig in the OP, because I have a few things to say about that as well.
IMHO, YMMV, and all that.

YMMV. I don’t recall you being an asshole so I will just say that I think your characterization of my relatively innocuous posts as assholish, was unfair.

Fine by me. I don’t watch TV news, nor do I read newspapers. I rely on the Pit for my informedness.

So I thank Bosda for keeping me in the loop.

So Bosda, what’s that crazy Wizard of Id up to today?

So why not just ignore the thread? Wasn’t the thread title clear enough for you to realize this was the type of thread you obviously don’t care about?

I’m continuously astounded by this type of complaint. There’s plenty of threads I’m not interested in, perhaps by posters who have a habit of making said threads, but I feel no compulsion to berate them about it. I simply don’t open the threads.

It’s so bizarre to me that someone would make the effort to open a thread they are uninterested in, let alone make a post.

Seriously, just don’t open the threads. If the title somehow deceived you into opening a thread, report it.

Revtim, your post was disgusting. Especially paragraphs 2 and 3. I had to read them four times each to understand how disgusting they were. I hate you for that.

I think Revtim should have put those paragraphs in a spoiler box, so that tdn would have had to go out of his way to read them, and thus be extra snarky in his subsequent complaint.

Not that I’d do anything like that myself, of course.

Revtim, I guess you failed to notice, this is the pit. People want to post shit, we can tell them how we feel about it. I was not really rude, just sort of tossed off a comment. Bosda is the one coming back like a flaming asshole. I am constantly astounded by people who are astounded by people expressing thier opinions, in the pit of all places. Imagine, a person posting a critical comment about something posted in the pit. Are you sure you were astounded, cause if you were, thats just…astounding.
