And kept digging, and digging, and digging, and…
This. 'luc, I’ve harbored nothing but positive feelings towards you during the 20 years we’ve both been on this board.
Until this thread.
I don’t want to be part of a pile-on here. I just want you to get a clue, so I can go back to thinking well of you.
Pretty sure that did get mentioned as she went out the door, around the time that threats of physical violence started getting thrown around, but by that point I was no longer involved with the bitch queen.
This is the peak post from the thread.
The trainwreck that is D’Asshole starts on post 9 of this thread. Like elucidator, he jumps into a 40 foot well and starts digging. People start throwing rocks down the well around post 17.
Gee, that’s swell! Allow me to review.
My premise, you may remember, is that scarce supplies be carefully deployed. That health care workers be the first priority, since they protect all of us.
Imagine a military parallel. The enemy has taken the Alamo, and is marching on Dallas. We are surprised, ambushed, we rush vital supplies to the front. For instance, helmets. Our heroes don’t have enough helmets, and action is taken. But General Dreedle interferes, he insists that a portion of those helmets must be dispersed to the commissary corps in the rear echelon. They are vital, essential, they supply the food. I say, General Dreedle, sir, that is a dumb thing to do.
Now, if all the soldiers in the front line are amply supplied with helmets, this is not a problem. But alas, no. I said I thought such a decision relative to protective gear…including cloth masks… was “dumb”. I stand by that. Of course, at no time did I recommend marching to grocery stores and tearing them away,
Two hours later, I am pitted. Was there a request for clarification, some further attempt to understand? The record is before you.
Now, I can understand how you might be swayed by the pitting, the calm reasoning and polite rhetoric. Which iteration of “I hate you” did you find the most persuasive? For me, it was the fourth, by the twenty-third repetition, it lost some flavor.
The notion that I had some disdain or animus towards grocery workers was laughable and absurd. I caricatured that absurdity, dripping with sarcasm. Which sarcasm was offered as proof positive of a hideous inhumanity. And accepted as proof! And repeated for its damning evidentiary power. Like, ten times?
We have loved ones, you and I. Suppose you take a parent, or a child, in to be checked out, you are worried. And you find out that the nurse doing the preliminary work was wearing the same cloth mask she wore for the previous patient? Would that concern you? Given that what concerns us here is an aggressively contagious disease?
In a time of desperate emergency, vital supplies must go first to those who protect us all! And may the Goddess bless them and keep them safe to Her bounteous bosom all the days of their life, amen. That is what I said, anything else is an embellishment. Repeated often enough, its a lie.
True enough, we must eat. But we can go a lot longer without eating than without breathing. I trust there is no confusion on that.
All that said, your warm regard is shared and returned, and nothing that has happened here will change that. I am not delicate, and have had unpopular opinions all my life. For every person here who likes me, there are probably five who don’t. Hasn’t killed me yet.
I remain, your friend,

'luci, at the rate you’re digging, you should pop up in China tomorrow. And the Chinese can keep you.
You keep resorting to the sarcasm defense. I, in fact, read it as sarcasm when you first posted it. But what you don’t seem to get is that responding with sarcasm in that situation was being an asshole. It wasn’t cute or funny or clever, it was jerkish.
You offend people due to what you say was just a misunderstanding, and instead of attempting to clear it up, you respond with sarcasm? And you think that’s a great defense of you as a lovable guy? Sorry, that’s what assholes do.
I would be disoriented.

Or maybe pro-oriented?
Wow, that is one fucking deep hole **elucidator **is working on.
It is sickly fascinating how many pixels he has spent on typing out “explanations” when really the only thing he has to do is say just two words.
Two.
Words.
But he can’t do it. And that, more than anything else, reveals what sort of morally bankrupt, disgustingly callous, revolting excuse for a human being he is. And is apparently determined to remain forevermore.
Criminal cases are brought to court as * Ohio vs Jones*, not Grocery Store v Jones.
Semi intelligent adults would KNOW that.
What is your, and Broom-Hilda’s excuse?
You made a very serious typo that rendered your entire post incomprehensible.
Fuck off.
Which typo?
The part where you started typing.
Not always. Like i said a company or individual can press charges:
*The Law & Criminal Charges
Pennsylvania Law does, however, permit an individual to file criminal charges against another person on his or her own. Rule 506 of the Pennsylvania Rules of Criminal Procedure permits an individual to file a private criminal complaint before a district justice. If you file a private criminal complaint, you become the affiant, or the person making the allegation just as if you were a police officer.
The same rules apply to you in filing charges that apply to a police officer. A mere allegation is not sufficient to initiate criminal charges. Filing a private criminal complaint in no way guarantees that criminal charges will be filed. Just as a police officer must do, you must demonstrate that probable cause exists that the person you wish to have arrested committed a crime. Probable cause is the legal standard of proof that our courts require in order for charges to be filed. In other than summary offenses, the district attorney must approve every private criminal complaint before a district justice is permitted to issue process.*
I already explained this to you. But in general, if a large merchant wants charges filed the local DA will cooperate.
Reminds me of Starving Artist repeatedly insisting that Sandusky’s old knees weren’t flexible enough to allow Jerry to rape kids.
Don’t give up **elucidator **, this is one of the most entertaining threads on this board in a while.
Do states other than PA allow that?
Whaddya think this is, GQ? 
How’s about you head off and do the research? I’m sure this thread will be much enriched by some facts, or whatever.
Off ya go, there’s a good fella.
Hey, lazy fuck, this took about 10 seconds to search. Assuming you know all the big words needed.
Now why would you go do the hard yards for him? It’s like telling the lazy fuck to tidy his room, then cleaning it for him anyway.
So he can’t tell himself he was right once again. Not that he’d ever admit to being wrong.
