NY... Are you listening?
LMFAO at WC or anyone else claiming libs have an exclusive on crapping on people here or anywhere else. Extremists from both sides are equally despicable (and look in the mirror, WC).

I just thought I would shake things up a bit. I'm pretty mush typical in my fiscal conservative views and am socially libertarian. Just because I refuse to be politically correct, I am dubbed extreme?
Let me ask you something. If NY raises taxes of the rich, how many of them do you think will seek legal residency in some other state they own property in, and deny NY of their taxes? I think NY will lose revenue rather than gain it. The liberal thought is such the wealthy and businesses dry for tax revenue, then wonder why businesses and the wealthy move elsewhere, or overseas.

I must admit it was, yes. I thought that was pretty obvious though

Re: Well, I'm finally done with this place...
you said telling the truth isn't an insult, but when pressed, you admit your intent was to insult. your intent was plain, but your words were a smokescreen.

Re: Well, I'm finally done with this place...
This thread is funny as shit.
I've gotten mad at people in this forum too, when I started posting in it years ago, now I take it for what it's worth......not much.
I am constantly amazed by the volume of posts some people make in here.....mostly I'm jealous, because I'd punch my mother in the face for that amount of free time......ok, maybe not my mother, but Boutons Mom for sure.

Methinks it's much harder to keep a conversation civil under the blanket of anonymity. tbh fwiw imho iirc There's something about interpersonal interactions. They foster a healthy level of respect for other parties.
Meeting some of the posters here has helped me understand how their life experiences have shaped their views. It not something easily conveyed on a keyboard (I'd go so far as to say that it's impossible).
Not that I've ever intentionally insulted anyone here.

The truth is only insulting to those that are unaware its the truth. Shanks is permanently unaware of anything resembling reason. In other words, yes I had an inkling she might feel insulted.
Guilty as charged sir.
Interesting how she's never aware of how she insults others but is always acutely aware of feeling insulted herself. I guess other people must take the more direct, obvious approach :lol
In any case, I don't much care for Shank's bullshit or the high horse she seems to ride on when she gets flak for it.
That answer your question?

Re: Well, I'm finally done with this place...
I dunno....I've been part of discussion boards since the days of steam powered servers. While I've made some great friends over the years, most have come to fruition after a encounter in meatspace. Until then, it's words on a screen.

you carry baggage, she carries baggage, everybody carries baggage. the complaint about crookshanks unbearableness deserves more of the same. luckily for me, your silly baggage related to crookshanks is of no interest to me.

Re: Well, I'm finally done with this place...
I've never really understood how it's possible to be genuinely hurt by pixels. But it seems to happen. A lot.
In this particular case, though, I'm more amused/confused by the suggestion that the lack of civility 'round these parts is at all sudden or has become markedly worse in recent months (or that the MLK thread was a big enough straw to have finally sent the camel to traction) than I am by the general observation that people can be asshats in here.

Re: Well, I'm finally done with this place...
continual, petty sniping keeps in in front of my nose whether I want it there or not.
reality is that which, when you wish it gone, doesn't disappear. all the stupid petty resentment and backbiting here is like that.

+1
However, expectations are too high imo. There's no real accountability for violating said agreement, save inactivation of ones account.
Free of the fear of reprisal, your only hope for civility lies in individual self-restraint. Given the additional context of anonymity, I'm not at all surprised by what transpires around here at times.

Re: Well, I'm finally done with this place...
i don't treat anyone else here the way i treat skanks.
there's a reason for that.
i hope she can't handle it, but i think you can.
