No. It’s stupid elitist attitudes like this that are what’s wrong with this message board. If I were new, I’d be more put off by ridiculous comments like yours than at any membership fee.
And gobear, I’ll start out by saying that I can understand your feelings on the issues in this thread. Considering what you’ve been through, it’s quite understandable. However, to show that life is indeed a two-way street, I have some friends who are Haitian and quite healthy. I doubt they’d appreciate the implications of your humor. I also doubt they’d get bent over it, either. Afterall, it’s just a joke, right?
Just like beauty, so too is humor in the eye of the beholder. It’s yet another of those little things that make us all different. It’d be a pretty boring ride if we all had the same viewpoints on things, huh?
Great, now you’ll get the same PC sausage jockeys bleating that it’s terrible how you’re making fun of someone having sex with a poor, widdle, defenseless animal.
He’s been here (well, lurking at least) since March 2001. And you’ve only been here since January 2001! He only joined two months after you, you stupid fuck!
Oh, that’s right … you’ve read the Handy Guide On How To Win Friends And Influence People on the SDMB. :rolleyes:
As far as i’m concerned, it’s all about signal:noise ratio, clayton_e. And I gotta say you’re all noise, and no signal. Prolific posting does not an Interesting Doper make.
Now, run along and play in the traffic, little boy.
My first response when I heard about the WTC, was “Well, I guess George’s missile shield doesn’t sound like such a good idea now, huh?”, and everyone in the room laughed, even though we ALL knew it wasn’t funny, just a reaction to the horror. I often react with humor - it’s how I cope. Had I seen this thread before today (I don’t come into the Pit too often) I probably would have beaten (pun NOT intended) llamasex to THE EXACT SAME JOKE. Oh, and I’m NOT a newbie fuck, either. I’d also expect to be ABLE to make a statement like this in the Pit, because THAT’S WHAT THE PIT IS FOR.
