What a tiresome hypocritical ball of s#!t. you are.
Sorry but that’s a bit harsh. Effectively it may have been a vote for Trump but he did not vote for Trump so it’s out of line saying he did. Our system is dysfunctional. We shouldn’t have to vote for somebody we don’t like just to keep somebody we dislike even more from getting elected. It may work that way but that is hardly anybody here’s fault.
You’ve made that clear.I disagree, in the strongest of terms.
Where can I get the other half of this conversation?
I didn't want to derail the thread this was posted in, but I feel like many of us are actually more in-line with our thinking on various topics than some of the discussions here might often reflect. There are many posters here, Archy included, who post things I agree with. Sometimes we have to wade through deflectory debate tactics and unnecessary whataboutisms, but most of us are guilty of that from time to time.Now I’m getting worried I may be wrong…I agree with @Archy1221 on this one. :lol:
Yeah I think most of us (not all obviously) want pretty close to the same things at the end of the day. Many/Most of the disparate views and subsequent arguments arise because of differences on how to get there and the unhelpful but human nature gotchas along the way.I didn't want to derail the thread this was posted in, but I feel like many of us are actually more in-line with our thinking on various topics than some of the discussions here might often reflect.

I don't really have a point here other than it's refreshing for people to find and admit common ground on things even if they tend to have disparate views and arguments on a lot of other things.
You KNOW we would enjoy have a beer or bourbon together while listening to Teach’s classroom stories. I think almost all of us would enjoy the bar or garage beer for a night or a Chardonnay glass for Guy I guess. Probably only 2 people here I can think of that would be absolutely awful to spend any amount of time with.Yeah I think most of us (not all obviously) want pretty close to the same things at the end of the day.

Back when I was in college, I actually met up with quite a few of the posters here. This was probably 2010ish? Some Lincoln bar. I think knapplc was there and several others that unfortunately I just don't remember now but they were pretty prominent posters at the time... might even still be regularly posting, if I could remember the names lol.You KNOW we would enjoy have a beer or bourbon together while listening to Teach’s classroom stories.

I’m not sure I could have handled Loe either. Mostly because he/she probably couldn’t contain himself/hereelf from talking crazy and it would be a buzz kill while trying to enjoy everyone else’s company. Similar to “Mr. Christ Like but also tells @JJ Huskerto go f#&% himself and his horse while telling us to be Christ like” blowhard Knapplc. I can only imagine how awful having drinks with that person would be…..unless he/she pays of course.

Anyways, it was a good experience. I don't think there's any currently active members that if I met them at a bar that we wouldn't get along. The only one of recent note would've probably been Loe Doesn't know, but since he's no longer welcome here, that isn't isn't a problem. And that's not really because of his political views but just because of the things he said and the way he treated people, especially in DM's in such.
