How very childish of you. Thank you for displaying your intellectual shoe size for us.
There is no need to get this vulgar. You sound like the hard left in their name calling.
Um, do you live in a convent? What is vulgar about what I posted?
Free Republic is not "out of my way", it's where I go almost daily for news & opinions.
Your posts are not "out of my way" when they're in a thread that interests me.
FLT-bird: "...try to drag me back into a thread that has been off the board for weeks or months."
I have no idea what "off the board" means.
But if you are sincerely curious, the explanation is simply that when I get time from my busy life, I review threads like this and answer any posts like yours which were not already answered.
If it helps, you can think of me as a clean-up hitter -- my goal is to knock it out of the ballpark and bring home any runners already on base.
Of course you are free to answer my posts, or not, as you wish, your choice, no law says you have to do one or the other.
FLT-bird: "No self flattery is required to make that observation.
Its quite obvious."
No, you still flatter yourself, so I went back & counted them up.
Of my past 100 posts, FLT-bird was addressed on six.
But I only respond to your lies, so in the future stick to the truth and you'll never hear from me again, FRiend.
Oh, dear, you never stop with the nonsense, do you?
This thread was never "dormant".
So I went back and counted -- by my count FLT-bird made 53 posts on August 14 & 15 then refused to respond to any more until August 23, and that was just to complain I would "try to draw me back in."
But in the mean time, between the 15th and 23rd, the thread remained very active, with several posts daily, including one to you on the 18th which you didn't respond to.
So the bottom line is that FLT-bird is chock-full of nonsense and this particular complaint is just another on the very long list.
FLT-bird: "Then you and your little cabal tried once again to drag me back into the tired old discussion by tagging me over and over and over again weeks after I had ignored your previous attempts."
Complete nonsense.
Review this thread yourself, the truth is there for anyone to see.
FLT-bird: "Really man, get a life."
Really man, get a grip.
Oh look! 4th attempt of the day to rope me back into this old thread.
Oh look! 5th attempt of the day to rope me back into this old thread.
Oh look! 6th attempt of the day to rope me back into this old thread.
Oh look! 7th attempt of the day to rope me back into this old thread.
It sure is a good thing your little cabal isn’t obsessed and has so much going on in their lives. Otherwise, you’d be making numerous attempts to revive an old thread that scrolled off weeks ago by repeatedly tagging me day after day.
Oh wait.....
There’s that OCD shining through again...
Oh look! 8th attempt to draw me into this thread today.
Good thing y’all aren’t obsessed losers with no lives.
I know who this guy is! He Al Pacino as “Michael Coroleone’’ in “GodFather 3’. “I keep trying to get out but they keep dragging me back!’’
I thought he was the guy in Monty Python who keeps protesting “I’m not dead yet!” when they throw his mangy carcass on the cart.
“I feel.....happy!”

post #318: "off the boards"?
post #319: "dormant for weeks"?
post #329: "scrolled off weeks ago"?
What do those terms even mean, if anything?
In fact this thread has seen posts nearly every day since August 14 and many other threads go on for weeks & months, so long as people remain engaged.
So what, exactly is FLT-bird's problem?
As Queen Gertrude said to Hamlet: "The lady doth protest too much, methinks."
I think you nailed it the first time: flt comes onto a thread, throws out a bunch of stuff, disparages anyone who dares to disagree, and then focuses on deflection in place of defense.
Ho hum. Another day, another attempt to necro this old thread from one of the usual suspects. What a shock.
“So what, exactly, is FLT-bird’s problem?’’. He’s not taking his meds regularly.
Entitled or not, some people such as yourself insist on having them anyways.
