    I've never gotten the ignore thing. It's weakness to me. I WILL exploit it. I ain't shutting up. You don't want to read what I have to say that everyone else is reading, who loses? Putting someone on ignore means you're a sounding post without the balls to man your own line.

    I always ignore those who can not behave themselves according to my view. And I don't want their posts to irritate my eyes. Moreover the persons who talk within a frame of labels and blinkers are not interesting for me to discuss anything. I am not in my service here, to keep on smiling to anybody whose dogmas I disagree with. I am sick and tired of this for the past decades.

    First. I behave according to my view. not yours. I am a moderator. I am big on verbal warnings rather than just slamming you. IF you have me on ignore, you cannot see those verbal warnings. What choice do you leave me? Try being in a position of authority. I don't want to ban anyone but look at the position you put me in (hypothetically speaking).

    From a personal point of view, using ignore is weak. It's running in the face of the enemy. When I open my mouth, agree or not, I'm manning my line. If I'm wrong, I'm wrong. I suck it up and move on. Bet you can find more admissions of being wrong from me on this board than from you.

    I didn't say it when I opened a thread about our Ambassador killed in Turkey. But I may had seen him in 1971, when I conducted entrance interviews among entrants of our Institute prior to their entrance exams. So you can guess about my further life and service.

    Good thing you added this. So, by the way, I AM a US Marine. I'll break your ass in half with your interrogation bullshit. Been through that school, got the certificate and everything. You ain't got shit on what the SEALS will do to your ass. If you want a war, I'll give you one you won't believe.

    So let's talk Christmas. What do y'all do over there for Christmas?

    That sucks. I'm not allowed to drink (the daughter will kill me) and I hate sausage. I think I know the NutCracker Suite by heart though. If it was 2 out of 3 we could get a Meatloaf song out of it.

    Saw him in concert. Dude can down some Jack and sweat bullets. I was a hard partier back then and couldn't keep up with his ass. I totally wanted that girld from Paradise by the Dashboard Light.

    How 70s.

    We know which two of us suck sitting around posting on Christmas Eve. We've been abandoned.

    And reverting to Gunny. I've read in quotes his post, which additionally proved that he has no clue of the subject he started speaking about. But he is a sergeant and I know what can potentially be expected from sergeant. That's why he with his ass is not interesting for me. He doesn't know such a simple thing that 'pure diplomats' don't have military ranks. So, I would recommend him to take care of his ass, just to be on the safe side.

    I'll forgo the insults because it is Christmas Eve. Second chance, Want a war? I got one for you. You're pushing and I got nothing better to do. Play nice.

    So what kind of decorations do y'all use? I am always interested in different cultures.
