Wildest Bill you crazy SOB, you’ve got views and you come to the forum on fighting ignorace to share them. Eris bless you, God bless you, IPU bless you (for you atheists out there;)), Allah bless you, etc etc… you come here and you speak your mind.
And instead of correction for it when you admit ignorance, you get bashed. You aren’t a stickler for spelling and fixing typographical errors and you get bashed for it.
But thank you for coming back every time. As prickish as many of us can be here, I think you do listen, and I think you do learn, and I think that’s what this whole board is about. Don’t be discouraged, my man.
You’ve been taking it pretty heavy lately, but keep coming back, man, don’t let it turn you away.
Wildest Bill: I dont know you, and I’m sure you dont know me, but I read your posts and think to myself, “this is why freedom of speech is great” I dont agree with you on a single issue, but we both have the right to tell our opinions. Keep it up, bud
peace,
JB
Seriously, though, WB, half the time when I read your posts I think “Are you fuckin’ kidding me?”, and half the time I think “That is one resilient SOB.” And when you’re not being political, you can actually post some entertaining and interesting things, IMHO. You’re like that old Members Only jacket of mine, packed in a box and stuck in my parents’ attic: out of style, missing a button, and kind of embarrassing to think about, but strangely endearing all the same.
headshok, I think I had that same jacket. Got it back in '86. Heh.
But back to the subject at hand.
Yes, Bill, you’re one goofy sumbitch. But as has been said before, you are in fact our goofy sumbitch.
The one thing you do that drives me absolutely nuts is the way you get all serious about your Christianity in one thread, then a couple days later you’re off asking for terrorists to be tortured to death in another.
Goofy and internally inconsistent.
But you are from Texas aren’t you?
Seriously Bill, here’s to you![sub] you goofy fucker :)[/sub]
Well, the purpose of this board is to fight ignorance. And, well, let’s just say that Bill presents a target rich environment. The nice thing about Bill is that he will usually, eventually, give up his crazy ideas and reluctantly agree that perhaps he was wrong. Bill, you are one of our most valuable posters.
Ah, well, perhaps I exagerated a bit there Esprix. Maybe Bill doesn’t so much change his mind as moderate the way he writes, after about 500 people smack him upside the head. But, he does listen. He does take criticism. OK, not always, but sometimes.
The difference between Bill and the other ignorant people is that Bill isn’t a drive-by. He sticks around. He listens. He doesn’t always learn, but at least he sticks around to take his lumps.
That’s cute; you’re saying you wants cites of him admitting he’s wrong, but you won’t accept a case where he admits he’s wrong. That’s a rather fascinating selection criteria.
Nevertheless, let’s see. In this thread he comes right out and says “I am probably wrong on this one.”
It took me three minutes to find that. Would you like me to find more?
By the way, that thing that flew over your head was the point of this thread.
Nuts. That’s what I get for being exhausted. I thought you said “pertaining to his ideas reagarding…” etc. My mistake, though why you discount an obvious example of his apologizing in your search to find when he’s apologized is beyond me.
If you’re seriously stating that someone is an “inhuman monster” based on the evidence on this frigging MESSAGE BOARD - evidence that, as near as I can tell, is comprised of his being a terrible typist and flying off the handle a lot - you need to get away from the computer, pal. Give up message boards for awhile, 'cause your perspective is shot.
