Warning: Vent rant coming!!!! No need to fix it, I just need to primally scream for a minute

[tavalon]

I only have 5 people (oops, now it's 4 - one more got tombstoned) on my ignore list and the highest I will allow it to go is 10. I am very picky because no matter how often I disagree with the same person, sometimes, maybe only once in a lifetime, they say something that informs me, helps me to understand and be a better person. And each time that happens, it reinforces that I've chosen well in being picky about placing people on ignore.

That said, I'm getting so fucking tired of the stupidity and right wing memes being thrown at me whilst being accused of being a right wing shill. You can't have it both ways, not in this. I'm so close to just putting the whole damn place on ignore.

I've had 5 days off from work and I'm looking forward to going back because I could use a change of scenery in the stupid realm. I need some teh stupid from work to wash the teh stupid of DU off my palate!!!

End Rant

PS

I put this in the Lounge because it isn't really political but the irony is: you guys are actually the cool, smart kids. Maybe, I should just ditch GD and GDP for a while and come mix drinks with you guys

1. It's bloody depressing isn't it?

I spend more time in the lounge for that very reason.

2. I have a pretty thick skin most of the time

But, tonight, the right wing memes have been a flyin' and I just needed to scream. Thanks for listening.

3. That's why I'm here.

4. I left DU for about 18 months and came back about a month or so ago.

I forgot about my Ignore list until I ran into an incredibly nasty individual two days ago. I checked my Ignore list and lo and behold, 7 of the 8 on my list had been tombstoned during my 18 month absence. Am I good or am I good?

I was dismayed yesterday to see someone with knowledge of the U.S. constitution called a Republican appeaser because he/she refused to engage in hyperbole regarding treason.

5. It's like the Lodge at the Hunt Club here, y'know. You can sit down and lubricate a bit

before loading up again to go turkey shooting in GD

6. You bring the booze

and I'll bring the Tiki music! :D

7. Yes, you should come in here and mess around more often.

It's been a little sedate lately, but it can go plenty wacky.

Especially Friday and Saturday nights, when people tend to have a few shots or beers or puffs.

Good times, good times.

:hi:

10. Yes, I will

Thankee!

8. you had 5 days off work and you spent all the time on DU

:eyes:

9. No, not at all

But I spent enough time yesterday with stupid poop being flung at me. Usually, I manage to filter out the silly noisemakers. This time I didn't.
