Stimulus 2

[infinite monkey]

I never hid that I'm shawnee, so if you see yourself as some sort of TMZ you're not.

I think glatt's response was good. Simple. From a guy who doesn't say anything remotely mean even if he wanted to. So you jump on THAT, and once again expound the virtues of themerc?

Puh-leez.

I don't even know what a TMZ is, and I know everyone knows you're shawnee. I just don't like the new persona - not that I was overly fond of the previous one in recent times.

It's a shame really. I used to have a lot of time for you, and even felt sorry for you when people gave you a hard time. You know this because there was a time when I tried to offer you support over an issue you were having with a number of members on here.

Anyway, let's not waste any more time on this bullshit.

I've posted two posts this morning, one in current events and one in politics. This was the one I came to second. I'd just watched a bunch of you do the usual dog pile on merc, then came here to see glatt make a comment I considered completely out of character for him. I was surprised. Pardon me for being so, but I guess those of you who aren't merc fans can smuggly assume you have another crony now, although I doubt that's the case. I don't see glatt joining any of the little 'I hate merc' covens around here, but I guess you can live in hope. If he did, it might validate some of your accusations, at least in the eyes of some of the more stupid posters here.

That is all. Have at your flame war now. I personally couldn't be fucked bothering with you anymore.

Yeah, I guess I shouldn't have said that. The thread kind of went from empty drivel to downright mean.

I don't hate Merc., but there are times when he doesn't care, and posts anyway. Tonight he was on a roll just before I posted that. I figured I'd call him on it. But I just added to the negativity.

Thanks glatt. I appreciate the illumination. I guess my post was in response to the same thing, but from the other side of the fence.

Friends still?

Dude, I totally respect you. If we have an issue I would rather take it off line and figure it out. Playing it out in public serves no purpose. You are right, I often just totally don't care. And I could give a shit what people think or feel, what you see is what you get. If you want to continue this I would be glad to exchange with you. If not no worries, it changes nothing for me.

So poignant. So real.

Bottom line: Obama is shit for a president.... Although I could support his re-election if both the Senate and the House went to the Republickins. We don't need a single party in charge of this country again.....

So government failed on 9/11, and yet the politicians' answer to failure is always the same: Give us more money and power. And we do. When will we learn?

Wow. You come in here with nothing to add to the subject but to single Ali out and shit
on her - AGAIN. Uncalled for. Unnecessary. Pointless. Mean spirited. Hypocritical.
Bitch wasn't strong enough a word.

[infinite monkey]

OH hai! What a surprise?

How've you been?


My response was to single out Ali, yes, for her insistence on calling out glatt on a very innocuous comment...probably related to the part (some thread? this one? Another one? Who cares) where merc couldn't own up to calling glatt a tool.

glatt a tool. Are you fucking kidding me?

But Ali, and you, class, can call me out on it. There is strength in mindless unison.

I just could not let that one slide by.

I only needed the right timing.

[Pico and ME]

Right.

[TheMercenary]

Tool time. Anyone can be one. I can own up to it. At the time it was not what I was responding too but hey, carry on... Is it really all that important? Are any of us that important? No....

[classicman]

Well there's two. Cue up Monnie and Spexx and the clique will all have chimed in. Oh joy.
