Fuck both of you. That's ALL YOU GOT.

Go to hell, seriously.

I honestly don't know what's happening in your life, but this kind of reaction is bigger than some words on a screen.

Shawnee123 01-15-2010 01:57 PM

No, that's just your condescension coming out. See, if you keep perpetuating this, it permeates everything and everyone's mind. Oh, it's just crazy Shaw again.

For standing up and saying what's on my mind...

I think they call this gaslighting. Some of you are quite good at it.

Satan get ready for some company, XOB and LO are coming for a visit, have Chris make a nice quiche ;)

I actually I'd never heard of gaslighting so thanks.

After you relax a bit why don't you go back and relax a bit more then reread this thread. You aren't the only one who I tweaked about getting wound up over Rush, you're just the only to take it personal and escalate things.

For those of you that have not gotten the memo I am the forum asshole today! :)

Shawnee123 01-15-2010 02:04 PM

I would ask you do the same thing.

I mentioned that I've heard a number of people who I described as conservatives have said a number of times something along the lines of "I don't like Rush BUT..."

It was a fine observation. It offended YOU, though, like you said about YOUR comment, it was directed at a number of people, not just you.

It's a pattern. I think you escalated it, and I think you did so very calculatingly. I don't care if you don't see it, I don't care if the cool kids don't see it. I dont' care what you label me or say behind my back.

That's the change you've seen in me: I'm not apologizing for being me anymore. I don't need to sit at the cool table in the Cellar. I'll say kind things when I feel kind things, and I'll call bullshit when I see bullshit, and I'll defend myself when I need defended. How is that any different than what anyone else does?

Examine yourselves folks, I can't be your scapegoat forever.

Shawnee123 01-15-2010 02:04 PM

Yeah, you are, and who the fuck is Chris? ;)

Though presently single, Satan has had three romantic relationships so far. His most significant relationship was with Saddam Hussein in South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut. However, Saddam was emotionally abusive to the comparatively-meek and ineffectual Satan, and seemed more interested in Satan for sex and world domination than out of love. With some prompting from Kenny, Satan finally got the nerve to break up with Saddam by throwing him onto a giant rocky spike and killing him.

Saddam returned to Hell in "Do the Handicapped Go to Hell?" (with the explanation that, since he was killed, he was just going to wind up right back there). By this time Satan had a new boyfriend, a man named Chris.

Ohhhhh...a cultural reference I didn't know! Thanks!

FTR...Shawnee isnt the only one to notice the condescending attitude that is sometimes exhibited here on the Cellar. I was quite astounded by Bruce's comment to Cloud the other day.

Shawnee123 01-15-2010 02:33 PM

You mean when he called her a cunt for having the audacity to feel a bit put off by a comment he made? Seemed a bit overboard to me too. Was she upset for a silly reason? Probably. Is that reason to call her a cunt? I don't know, I guess we should learn to shut up when we're told. I figured there must be a backstory that I didn't know, as I watched the pile on. *shrugs* Paint it what they will, it's shitty.
