After getting into it tonight with another Freeper, I started going through the latest posts. Boy, we are an angry nasty bunch tonight. People are calling each other names and hurling insults. Much more so than "normal."
We should all switch to decaf and hold hands sing kumbaya.
Anyone else good for a group hug?
It’s the alcohol.
Not just tonight.....
Emotions are at a peak, recently...
‘0’ will eventually re-unite ‘us’.....
Somebody needs to start another Mormon thread to calm things down.
I would be nasty too, if I had to live in the Obamination.
You want to see nasty? Make a typo in a post and you will see NASTY!
I have to say that it works against all of conservatism, patriotism,civility,etc for us to be fighting against one another in a vile manner....its probably comes right out of the Saul Alinsky workbook...encourage your enenmies to fight one another...
A thread about Mormon soldiers in the civil war who believed in evolution and supported Ron Paul.
That should do the trick.
In the re-education camp. I think that's what has so many on edge.
I think it might have something to do with the attention whore skipping CPAC and others getting some light. But that’s only a guess.
Okay, I feel much better
"So, you wanna go back to my place?"
"Alright."
and equate Mary with Jesus.
I’m just tired of people not reading what I post, and then railing on me for something I didn’t say. Too many people here just want to fire from the hip when they “think” they see something that’s not there. There’s this knee-jerk faction here that can’t wait to be snarky, sarcasta-bitches toward others they think have said something, when in reality they misread it or didn’t read the full post. These are people that are not operating here on the benefit of the doubt, they assume the worst and it’s time to rip into someone - yay!
You try to somewhat patiently correct them and they stay snarky about it. You snark back and then they’re all “hey grow up man” when they get their own attitude back.
Just tired of it. Read things fully and carefully. Try to make sure you grasp the overall context of what someone’s saying. Otherwise you’re just proving to everyone by your own words, you can’t read, and you’re a knee-jerk reactionary - you know, the way a liberal would react.
Bliss-ninny!
>>>Anyone notice an increase in nastiness tonight?
Actually I’ve been noticing that since about the time the Giuliani supporters were purged and the Birchers and Paulists filled in the gap. It was a bad trade.
"You talkin' to ME?"
That’s about right. Even catching myself falling in with it.
I gave up booze for Lent. For me, it's the absence of alcohol.
Well, there was this gay Mormon who advocated the legalization of marijuana while campaigning for a Romney/Huckabee ticket.
You know the guy. He’s the one who has petitioned for the Park Service to sandblast Lincoln’s face from Mount Rushmore because of the states rights thing.
I’m in a good mood tonight. It’s freezing outside and I just ate a Chocolate Frosty. Of course, I haven’t been on FR tonight to deal with any of the grumps.
A month? Try 10 years. Its like some folks don’t get out or have a life.
I have to admit. My posts vary considerably according to my mood.
I’ve woken up and said to myself “self- why were you arguing with this unknown asshole Jeff?”
