She called the snowflake-in-chief an uncomplimentary thing. In B&P’s ‘mind’ that kind of blasphemy is all the justification he needs for someone to get a one-way ticket to Gitmo.
it is a mistake to think there is a purpose to a dialogue with a performance troll.
I have no interest in just insulting people. I want them to actually answer a question. I will continue to ask questions until they really answer them. I want them to confront the contradictions in what they say.
I don’t think Gitmo has room for 200 million people.
What was the “terrible” thing that happened to this author?
Was she beaten?
Was she sent to gitmo?
I didn’t think so.
I didn’t say that something terrible happened to her. I said that something unjustified happened to her. The unjustified thing was that a simple problem with her visa that could have been handled in a polite way was handled as if she was someone who wanted to enter the U.S. for some nefarious purpose. They weren’t polite to her, and after she had returned to Australia, she complained about it. You said that the customs agents should have been suspicious about her because of something she said. You didn’t even bother to note that she said that after she had returned to Australia. In other words, you want the customs agents to treat people impolitely because of something they will say in the future.
Trolling perfmance art dialogue is of the same value as editing posts replies to look like the usenet in 1997. It is a silly waste of time.
Dialogue with aldiboronti who is at least honest, or adaher or even octopus.
That creature is just here to make you dance.
OK, so I’ve reached the end of this thread as of 8:20 PM EST, and still don’t know what she was suspected of.
I could speculate that someone made some sort of clerical error on her visa.
Loved the irony of these lines from the ABC News story:
[Some of] y’all are letting Blinky hijack the thread. Do not give in to his need for self-gratification. Make him take care of himself.
Things happen when you travel, or as the saying goes, shit happens.
Last time I travelled, I remember a woman on my flight who was given a hard time because she had a dog, and there were issues with the documentation that she had.
I don’t see somebody being asked a few questions and being delayed for a short time as a big deal really.
Next time, you should ride in the cargo hold like you’re supposed to.
I’m starting to think that is the actual Trumpista plan; To insulate the USA against every other country, and create a sort of mega North Korea, where the only “Truth” comes from government controlled media, and the impovrished, malnourished uneducated citizens are convinced that the rest of the world is a hellhole.
QFT. All the responses do is help him fap in the basement.
Ignore.
Ignore.
Ignore.
I’ve seen that suggestion here before. Even tried to figure out how to do it. Tried the FAQ and got no answer. I’d appreciate a quick tutorial or a link.
Thanks
Well, one simple method is to never, ever reply to something an obvious troll writes. That’s pretty straightforward.
Or, if you don’t want to even see their posts;
“Through your User Control Panel: User CP, Settings & Options, Edit Ignore List. Then, type their name into the empty text box and click ‘Okay’.”
Click on the person’s user name, and go to “View Public Profile.”
Near the top left of the screen on the profile page, just under the user name, you’ll see the title “User Lists” and a downward-pointing arrow. When you click on that arrow, you’ll see three list options; just click on “Add to Ignore List.” Voila!
But, more generally, you don’t need to even use the Ignore List. I don’t have anyone on my my list, and i never have. Just make a point of NOT responding to the obvious trolls like Blinkyandpinky. If people would just learn how the fuck to do that, the boards would be a better place.
Edit:
Beaten to it by a few minutes.
You talk like a magic 8-Ball where all the answers are statements specifically crafted to piss off liberals.
The USA can only trust certain other countries that share the same good values that we do, and there aren’t that many countries that fit into that category, so yes, the USA should definitely insulate itself against much of the world.
As for malnourishment, obesity is a big problem in the USA, so losing some weight would only do a lot of people a lot of good.
And last I checked, no liberal journalists in the USA have yet to be thrown in jail or assassinated for merely reporting, but liberal paranoia and hysteria does provide for good entertainment for types like me.
My Brother, and, sort of, my Uncle, both American citizens born in America. And what’s to complain? We accepted it as part of being American: a choice they were not ashamed to make.
(My Uncle was shunted off to a small room with a closed door and no windows, and left there for only an hour until it was sorted out: he wasn’t actually insulted at being treated as a criminal: I think he thought it was slightly funny. And having served in WWII, he was used to waiting for people to sort things out.)
If I’m misreading you then I’m sorry. In the last few months you seem to have become someone else. You are taking the position of someone who is so far right that you’re a parody of an ultra far right conservative. I seriously suspect a medical condition. Check in with your physician and demand a brain scan. Or are you just taking the piss. I can’t tell any longer.
