War Room Lounge v175: A Call for Acronymity

[BEER]

I think it's a temporary ban, but he really needs to pull his head in with the flaming.

Can we just tell him to stop replying to everything thread with "this is the left" or any variation?

He seems like a decent dude in the lounge, but his entirely empty and repeating rhetoric is annoying.

The dude told me, at one point, that I wasn't a "leftist" but a "classical liberal" because he literally has no idea what any of those terms mean.

 

[The Diplomat]

whoa, curb your enthusiasm there, Dippy. Did I say or imply that? Everyone had access to Epstein's private jets.

That's what I said.

 

[Graves The Elder]

didn't read that way, but whatevs

 

[Fedorable]

the day is okay and the sun can be fun
But I live to see those rays slip away.

It's really not that hard to avoid getting banned for flaming. You just have to actually address the thread topic, and not tag people into threads simply to flame them.
There's some subjectivity on what's "over the top" flaming, but as long as you aren't making /murderer accusations or threatening people, you're typically OK.

So are we saying reinstate @Social Distance Warrior (why did I tag him?) but with a "no trolling/no going crazy" policy?

Thats cool if its just temporary. Tbh he does need to chill a little. I didn't know him well but we meshed well together ... always backing me up and liking my posts and id do the same.

Imagine being non-urgent, in no pain, with no risk, and on work comp dime, during pandemic. That has to be a triage category just below mop heads that need cleaning. I'm going to grow old here.

The ER is where all the uninsured (and/or illegals) go for free, no deductible top-level care from some of the best docs in the country. Always have. Not a recent story, but 20 years ago my mom ends up in the ER at University (of Cincinnati) Hospital. I stop in and they said we'll get you back there in just a minute and I said OK and sat down next to this guy who was early 20s and built like a prize fighter. Had a bottle of Big Red and a bag of Fritos from the vending area, I figure he's there for his mom or grandma, like me basically. Talking on his phone. All of a sudden I hear what he's saying into the phone "Yeah, I'll be over there later. I had to stop here at the ER, I got a sore throat and have had this cough for days."
It was unreal. I would describe him as "happy and animated", waiting on a doc/prescription at the ER. No chance you would ever peg him as needing medical attention, much less emergency, immediate medical attention. They called me up and took me back to where they had my mom so I didn't have to stew on it further, but it was fucked up. So fucked up. Bums and illegals afforded better care than those who are taxed to pay for their care. Makes sense.

Anyway, I hope they get the staple out of your finger. That's messed up, anyway. Why would there be a big staple like that in a brand-new butt plug? Didn't you say it was brand-new? First time out of the package?

Atleast you bullshit better than Kong or Zebby.

I was surprised when I returned (to lurking) after a couple of years to find all the fighter bashing. I remember when accusations of steriod use could get you the ban hammer. Now the WR seems to be more civil than the heavies.

Ha! I remember the 'roid talk bringing up very strong warnings or bans. I guess once everyone in the sport got popped a couple times they eased up on that. lol
No idea.

I'm just pissing on his grave, tbh.

You think you're better than us?

If someone is respectful I always return the favor. If someone is an ass I ALWAYS return the favor. The problem is we have more assholes than respectful people around here.

I much prefer to engage in serious discussion but thats rarely the option.

Hah! Who is "us"?

What is your views on morality as a subjective or objective system?

Also, do you prefer unregulated capitalism, regulated capitalism that pays for socialism, or communism?

Wheelie and The Chopper Bunch.

But since you were the only one to see it. They are having fun. Made a cake, ate tacos. Danced on XBox Kinect. Now I'm walking and knocking every 5 seconds to make sure nothing weird is going on. I personally am NOT okay with two girls spending the night with a 13 year old boy, but my wife insists and he's actually pretty "innocent" in that regard so far. But that won't change tonight. Not on my watch.

Are they his age? He looks like a cool kid. Seemed very happy and enjoying the moment. Not sure about the dancing after tacos and cake though.

Australians?

Had to google it, that one didn't make it across the pond.

They danced, then had tacos, then made cake. And yeah, all the same age. Cool kids, their parents own a bar down the street from us.
