Yep. beam me up scottie Jun 2015 #3

Your martyrdom is noted n/t Scootaloo Jun 2015 #4

I expect many folks who see themselves in what I wrote will have similar pathetic rejoinders. nt stevenleser Jun 2015 #5

I'm sure Scootaloo Jun 2015 #7

I know, right? polly7 Jun 2015 #11

Not too broad or unspecified for you to become upset. It's clearly spot on. stevenleser Jun 2015 #15

Not upset at all. i think it's silly Scootaloo Jun 2015 #31

Yep, so silly you just had to post multiple replies including a somewhat lengthy one. stevenleser Jun 2015 #88

Well, when you moved from "silly" into "jerk" I figured what the hell. Scootaloo Jun 2015 #103

Thanks for kicking my OP and again showing how much it hit close to home for you. nt stevenleser Jun 2015 #110

Sure thing. Let's have some music to go with it! How about some of the late, great Eduard Khil? Scootaloo Jun 2015 #111

i don't even think these people are really pro sanders JI7 Jun 2015 #6

Maybe. I seem to see a lot of the same names pushing Bernie arguing that NYC_SKP did nothing wrong stevenleser Jun 2015 #8

Or we just like Skip and think he should have a second chance LittleBlue Jun 2015 #9

The simpler explanation is mine. It also is the one that fits. nt stevenleser Jun 2015 #12

No, LittleBlue's reply was much better. polly7 Jun 2015 #16

Of course someone who would send me nasty expletive filled PMs would think that. stevenleser Jun 2015 #18

So is it ok or not to post your nastygrams? stevenleser Jun 2015 #32

Post them. I'll post your hypocritacl, lying, pig-piling bullshit too. polly7 Jun 2015 #45

You could post both. I am sure your nastygrams are in your sent folder. stevenleser Jun 2015 #47

Steven, you must know on some level it is cowardly to allude to an underserved, nasty PM Bonobo Jun 2015 #56

We all know what he's trying for. nt. polly7 Jun 2015 #59

This message was self-deleted by its author Agschmid Jun 2015 #63

Where in his post was he advocating violence? polly7 Jun 2015 #67

Why don't you go post some more empty propaganda filler with all caps? nt Bonobo Jun 2015 #68

Meh, I'm over it. Agschmid Jun 2015 #74

Well, the whole premise of this thread is cowardly Scootaloo Jun 2015 #73

Here is the link for anyone who cares... stevenleser Jun 2015 #105

I see a lot of bullies in that thread Prism Jun 2015 #115

Prism, you are a voice that I have learned to always pay attention to. Bonobo Jun 2015 #117

Wait. what? This is stuff that happened 3-4 months ago and you are still gnawing on it? Bonobo Jun 2015 #116

I totally agree. BeanMusical Jun 2015 #134

Yep, sounds like you're being smarmy, passive aggressive and insincere to me. Bonobo Jun 2015 #90

It sure sounds like it to me too. BeanMusical Jun 2015 #137

Yes, passionate and sometimes hot-headed? Sure. But a wonderful human at the same time. Bonobo Jun 2015 #138

Mr. Lesser seems a little creepy. BeanMusical Jun 2015 #140

No PM to me and as for it being a lie? Bonobo Jun 2015 #141

And ....... definitely, share!!! polly7 Jun 2015 #30

Oh I would love that. I said absolutely nothing to you to justify those PMs. nt stevenleser Jun 2015 #33

It appears you go the go ahead. Agschmid Jun 2015 #35

Stop barking and bite already. Bonobo Jun 2015 #36

He's trying his hardest to get me to post them first so he can alert. polly7 Jun 2015 #54

You were fucking treating me like a piece of shit on a thread you knew polly7 Jun 2015 #40

I was there. I fucking saw. polly7 Jun 2015 #46

Wrong LittleBlue Jun 2015 #19

Nope. I notice a general correlation. That does not mean every instance follows. nt stevenleser Jun 2015 #23

How do you explain the poll and the Hillary fans who are sorry to see him gone? LittleBlue Jun 2015 #34

You do understand what a general correlation means, right? nt stevenleser Jun 2015 #78

synonyms: dissimulation, false virtue, cant, posturing, affectation, speciousness, empty talk... Scootaloo Jun 2015 #50

That's a good example. BeanMusical Jun 2015 #142

Many people excuse all sorts of things for their candidate Bonobo Jun 2015 #14

That goes the same for elected Dems too... MattSh Jun 2015 #25

Well there ya go... nt Bobbie Jo Jun 2015 #173

It appears he was offended by that word, and was expressing that. Agschmid Jun 2015 #26

that thread seems consistent with this OP , he is objecting to defense or use of certain terms JI7 Jun 2015 #37

Oh dear LittleBlue Jun 2015 #58

Nope. I am happy for people to read all of my comments there. I am 100% consistent. nt stevenleser Jun 2015 #80

hmm daredtowork Jun 2015 #24

Let me get this straight. EarlG banned SKP for use of the 'C' word because Skinner supports Hillary? stevenleser Jun 2015 #29

My confusion lies in the C word wasn't actually used. Some "interpretation" was involved. nt daredtowork Jun 2015 #39

For clarity Egnever Jun 2015 #130

Way too close... Agschmid Jun 2015 #28

Besides it looks like the general rule on meta was dropped in this case daredtowork Jun 2015 #48

You do understand the difference between a jury and hosts right? Agschmid Jun 2015 #53

Yes I realize banning isn't conducted by juries daredtowork Jun 2015 #70

His comment and the comment he was responding to have been posted multiple times. Agschmid Jun 2015 #77

I'm referring to the whole OP, and all the similar ones. nt daredtowork Jun 2015 #83

If I was on that jury, I would have voted to hide. ScreamingMeemie Jun 2015 #51

This... Agschmid Jun 2015 #57

It should and could be either meta + personal. I stopped really alerting on stuff a while ago. ScreamingMeemie Jun 2015 #65

If no one alerts we don't do anything. Agschmid Jun 2015 #69

I know. I've been a host and a mod. I'm sure someone will alert on it. ScreamingMeemie Jun 2015 #75

And you'd be correct we just got one. Agschmid Jun 2015 #79

:) ScreamingMeemie Jun 2015 #81

Good. Hosts should abstain to avoid conflict of interests. Isn't that right? Bonobo Jun 2015 #147

Awww shucks, thanks. Agschmid Jun 2015 #172

Something screwy is happening. Jamaal510 Jun 2015 #43

Interestingly enough, the person who said "POS used car salesman" agrees with you. But there is... stevenleser Jun 2015 #84

Neither are ban worthy as a one time offense Egnever Jun 2015 #92

If he called a black man a n****r, would you think that was ban worthy? SunSeeker Jun 2015 #107

Well as I see it Egnever Jun 2015 #112

This isn't the UK --we sure wouldn't use their slang for cigarettes. SunSeeker Jun 2015 #120

Huh? Cleita Jun 2015 #95

Which part? That Obama supporters get accused of being worshippers? stevenleser Jun 2015 #98

You truncated his post, leaving off his "It's a real tongue twister" line. SunSeeker Jun 2015 #122

Fair enough Egnever Jun 2015 #126

Leaving out the most important part took the entire exchange out of context. MohRokTah Jun 2015 #153

a GOP candidate magical thyme Jun 2015 #152

There are some actual Bernie Supporters who aren't excusing his slur. It's refreshing.. Cha Jun 2015 #155

I'm aware of that. I don't consider it refreshing or non-refreshing. magical thyme Jun 2015 #156

It's very refreshing to have people who actually care that a misogynistic slur is being used against Cha Jun 2015 #157
