Lengthy prose piece primarily devoted to description of life in an idealized historic American society of the last century, redolent with sympathetic emotional preferences for classical virtues, and simplistic morals.
Confusing reminiscence of events from someone’s youth, possibly the poster, possibly not. Hearth wrenching tragedy and enduring of suffering related with tear invoking pathos. Simplistic and self serving description of the nobility of human tragedy.
Blatantly partisan political endorsement unrelated to any previous post, or line of discussion. Assurance to all that God will triumph, and the those supporting the posters political aims will enjoy the fruits of their faithfulness.
Attempt to prove that God is pursuing denizens of SDMB by triggering resurrections of thread.
Response to post made on page 1 of thread, skipping quote of post, making everyone wonder if it’s really worth it to go back and view said post for him/herself.
References to private Christian-college education. Inference that OP is more qualified than other posters to comment on this topic.
Hint that OP will help out God by bumping thread to the top every month or so, so that more SDMB members will see convicting writings of OP.
Wondering if thread will ever die and give OP time to complete scale of ancient Jeruselem, the better to appreciate the nuances of Bible stories.
Uncritical or sarcastic, automatically accepting reference to the stellar theological work done by Paul and Jan Crouch on TBN.
Reference to Darwin recanting evolution on deathbed.
Humorous reference to .gif in naive appreciation for image no one can see.
Unwitting parallel drawn in first statement regarding nature of faith versus temporal discernment and the broken link to .gif as yet unknown to poster.
Lengthy diatribe of great pith and moment punctuated with wry cynicism describing visceral perception of Diety and generalization of vague ‘human condition’ assertation.
Self-correction. Amended statement withdrawing generalization. Sheepish admission of blatant guesswork before successive posters seize opportunity to reveal inherent ignorance.
Non sequitur of semi-personal nature in effort to endear possibly acerbic majority to self.
Semi-rhetorical dissertation of dichotomy between large corporate coffee franchises and locally owned “mom-and-pop” [sic] cafes. Analogy drawn to “repressed buds only waiting to bloom.”
Insertion of various minutiae in effort to clarify. Rebuttal of self. Ad hominem directed toward “middle management complacents.” Summary vilification of “Mac-Daddies” bent upon destructive tendencies.
Pause.
Pause.
Medication takes effect. Poster inquires as to topic of current discussion. Withdraws after offering information on canine’s diarrhetic dysfunction and cumulative effects on chintz.
Unsolicited and unwelcome whine about the fact that she (McKenna) is using parent’s computer while waiting to move out of apartment three states away wherein resides her own computer with cable connection. Complaint about slowness of parent’s modem and wistful remark about how slow her own will soon be since no cable connection available at location being moved to. Growl at cable companies and cavalier treatment of New York City’s outer boroughs.
Remembers OP but after three pages has forgotten what they were actually saying. In finest SDMB tradition, decides this is no obstacle.
Segue into unrelated story Dad told about nuns at school. Contradicted by a Mom story about nuns at school. Surmise that nuns treat girls better. Reflection on nuns poster knew that were actually pretty cool and very kind and helpful. Defensiveness about this reflection. Overly hysterical remark about anti-Catholicism being the anti-Semitism of the left.
Signoff. Just as send button is hit, realization that sig (pithy Duckman quote that loses everything out of context) is also back in Boston on old computer.
