That's too bad about Skinner nixing the group. It would have provided endless material for our entertainment.
Howard Dean was certainly gifted.His mommy and daddy gave him a great big trust fund so that he need never worry.
Cliff was gifted?
The primary duty of a parent of a gifted child is to make sure that they don't grow up like the people on DU.
The all-time best DU response on any thread:
"There is no end to the foolishness on this site."
That is the brilliant and gifted person.
Did you see the sarcastic threads yesterday about suggestions of group of average people, not super-intelligent people, etc? hilarious.
If the, ahem, "above-average" people didn't have a complex before, they will now, roflmao.
ALso, have you noticed all the pro-Israeli DUers lately? They've been very vocal. I'm pleasantly surprised. They've been standing up for Israel on all the Israel-Hizbullah threads. Very loud and in their face, and calling longtime DUers anti-semitic. It's been a hoot to watch the pro-terrorists DUers sputter and spit when confronted with facts, lol.
Go pro-Israel DUers!
I was watching "Everybody Loves Raymond" yesterday and it struck me that on that show (as well as many, many others) they spend a lot of time talking about High School and even Elementary School.
Is this "normal?" I had a pretty crappy time of it in school -- I as the little guy that they all beat up on. But except when it is pointed out, specfic events in my child life have zero direct influence on my life. I barely even remember people from then, much less events.
Do people older than 20 really sit around and talk and think about their school days?
Ah, yes, another winner in "Life's Lottery"....
It's been a hoot to watch the pro-terrorists DUers sputter and spit when confronted with facts, lol.
Got a link handy? I would love to take a peek.
Obviously Skinner is so gifted he doesn't need to learn how to spell "divisive".....I am sorry.....NOT!!!!
Cliff was the prototypical DUmmie -- lots of opinions with invented facts.
Actually, this phenomenon has intrigued me since I first started reading DUmmieland, in 2001, and noticed a lot of DUmmies never use capital letters.
At first, I thought this neglect was due to ignorance {public education} or laziness (too lazy to use another finger to hit the "shift" key). But now I think not.
During the later half of the 19th century, there was a pre-DUmmie, a pre-hippie, in Germany who attracted a great deal of attention because of the variety and scope of his "causes."
One of the "causes" was for the abolition of capital letters.
The proper word (which I coined, circa 1988, never having seen it anywhere before), for adherents to this "cause" is "nagelism."
Abolishing capital letters, making all equal, fits in really good with DUmmie philosophy (a philosophy which they never practice, though; elitism and differentiation is stronger among the DUmmies than most other sociological groups, large and small) of egalitarianism.

ROTFLMAO!! This is one of the funniest DUFUs ever!
There could be one of two reasons my fellow alum, a graduate of Yale, is orthographically-challenged.
One is that he might really have a short-circuit in the cerebral-cells somewhere that causes such spelling mishaps, and no big deal about that; we all have short-circuits of one nature or another.
The other is that people who really don't respect their "audience" don't care if their spelling is sloppy, and never bother taking the time and trouble to correct it.
So either my fellow alum has a short-circuit in the occupied space of the skull, or he has a subconscious contempt for the DUmmies.
Capitalization must be for "Norms" only
Neither do these brilliant DU's need to use complete sentences.
"The good ones and the bad."
...titter...
BTW: This is the funniest, most pathetic rant I've seen in your delightful DUmmies Threads.
"Abolishing capital letters, making all equal..."
equality for all letters.
I like it. :-)
Hve you ever noticed that DU types always blame some failing of American society for their own flaws as a human being? I wish one of these Abnormals (or whatever the heck they call themselves) would describe--in detail--the horrors they have endured from that pack of wolves known as American society due to their Specialness. I mean, take as much space as you need, let's see the list of all these terrible things Society has done for you.
Similarly, I'd love to see the Fagbag contingent list how many times a day you need all that junk you carry around! :P
