Hey -- you were the one who included France! :P

It's getting pretty ugly in here, isn't it?

Trust me, this post belongs in SC and not Bonfire ;)

Everyone has issues that causes their own personal radar to go meep meep meep. I think we can figure some of them out -- some folks with guns, others with Bush.

Some of us seem to have radars that go meep meep on people and not issues. As soon as someone that sets off your radar posts something, you see only what you disagree with in it. This is usually followed by several posts between the two in fast succession -- meep meep meep meep meep meep meep meep until someone hijacks the thread, or a warning is issued, or something even stronger overcomes their radar.

If you think this might apply to you, look around. Who pisses you off no matter what they post? Imagine what they look like seeking blindly, going meep meep meep on their own, and have a beer.

Another idea. I am the voice of reason and level-headedness. All are welcome to use my postings as a measure of the sensibility of their own postings.;)

Wendy I have no idea what your talking about:P;)


I think some of us me included focus on the parts that are very important to us. What we take personal.
There is a bunch of people on here and I know they would say the same about me. That I know what they will post before they post it.
Also those of us that spend a lot of time in here kind of get a feeling for what the person is about, at least in there political views.

But all in all with only one exception I don’t have bad feelings towards any one. If I ever met Ron, John, Rhino, and the many others I don't agree with politically. I would buy them a beer and talk about skydiving. Life is too short

Nice use of color to illustrate your point.

I think she should have used at least 4 colors. I start singing Jingle Bells whenever I read it. It's highly distracting. What were we atlking about? :)

Ditto on that from me, Darius. I may not like some of your political views, but I've got lots of friends whose politics I disagree with. That doesn't mean I can't enjoy their company at the drop zone and beyond. I can keep politics separate from other things.

Sometimes you don't understand.
Sometimes I am what I am.
Sometimes I just can't be everything you hoped I'd be...
and sometimes I wish that you could see I'm not like you, I'm not like them, I won't pretend.
Your secrets are the true reflection of who you really are...

After looking at the list of updated (and subsequently redacted) threads, I think it's time to bump this thread :D:D

Folks, if someone is pissing you off that bad, it's about you, it's not about them.

Shameless bump of my very own thread. Play the ball. If the player who pisses you off is playing person-to-person defense, fuck 'em, go play a different game for awhile. Leave them wondering if you saw their last post, or make it clear it just wasn't worth responding to. Nothing will piss some of those folks off more.

Hey, that’s my MO! Seriously, the main reason this drags on and on is simply set neither one of the players is willing to let the other one have the last word. It is so childish.

Wow, you’ve been trying for nearly 20 years! Thread bought back memories. Popsjumper and I became very good friends, sadly he passed away before he could vote for Trump (he liked Trump). John rich and Kallend sparring over guns in a never ending circle :)

Interesting that this still holds true now more than ever - and never has it been so lonely. . .
