Can we hold a bake sale to buy** Oakie** a big ol’ barrel of Lightin’ Up? Boy’s in some serious need, here.
It’s not because you’re not a liberal. Hike up your well educated skirt.
When you tell everyone that you’re smarter than them, you come off as a pompous dick-hole.
Screw that. I’d rather have the baked goods. Brownies being a personal favorite, but chocolate chip cookies, rice cripsy treats, cake, pie…pretty much anything like that is most welcome.
I didn’t say I was smarter than everyone. I said I’m smarter than Spartydog. Granted, that’s sorta like being more athletic than Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, but still…
I have no argument with the south per se, just the states, that elect republicans. Remember Tony Blair? Even if you personally approved of him I’d bet you know some people who don’t.
Imagine trying to share a country with a whole mainstream national party of Tony Blairs and get a functional country working again.
So let’s see you bash California…unless the Governator changed parties this morning…
As a Southerner* I would like to rally my support behind the OP, as soon as someone helps me out with a few of the bigger words.
- Sort of. Non-native resident, longtime inmate. Yearning to break free.
I’m quite willing to allow that the following is subject to confirmation bias and all the other problems inherent in subjective personal observation, but the bashing of California, or New York, or New Jersey, or Canada, or France, or any other place in the world doesn’t tend to run into the 10 page plus train wreck that seems to occur any time anyone hints that the South or (God forbid) Texas is anything other than perfect.
As I said, it’s just personal observation, but it’s been consistent across the three discussion boards I’ve frequented over the past 10+ years.
Disclaimers: as a Canadian, I have no particular dog in this fight, and I hereby certify that I’m allowed to speak to grownups as I am over the age of 30.
Is this where I insert the :rolleyes: or is it the :eek: thing?
I grew up in new York. I now live in Los Angeles. Both places have their share of incompetent assholes too. Stupidity does not recognize borders or state lines.
I generally voted Republican until these last couple elections. Now, had the 2004 Bush campaign came out and said “We’re running on a pack of lies, and intend to plunge America into chaos, war and recession!” I don’t think they would have gotten many votes.
Also, it is relevant to note that Republicans haven’t always been shepherded by neocons. And that there have been some shitty Democrat presidents, too. That have also lied, been party to wars, deception, etc.
Well, now you’re talking! Course, gonna have to see some sort of assurance that you are…ah…adequately experienced to deal with 'luc’s Brazos River Brownies. They’re not for everybody, you understand.
If you can buy bags of dicks down south, I fear there is something to Spartys complaint. Are they separated by color and size/ Are they flavored? My mind is shutting down…
Hmmm…considering I just posted a youtube link to the Lawrence Welk Show version of “One Toke Over the Line” in another thread, I think I qualify…

Another $15 (US)
worth.
Man, I love this place.
For the answer to these and many other questions – such as expiration date and side orders – you only need open this bag.
…the horror…the horror…
How do feel about dicks? Pretty sure there’s a bag of them around here somewhere. Fresh, hopefully.
Sounds like Sarah Palin’s stump speech. Zing!
But seriously folks, we’re all fucked. Invest in gold toilets, platinum grills, and radium toothpaste.
Someone with a reading comprehension as pathetic as yours shouldn’t be making accustations about education or stupidity.
That’s because when a “good ol’ boy” does it, you look the other way.
