Is it just me, or....

[Yurt]

Yurt you are correct, it does make it fun but after a while the constant obfuscation they exhibit almost to a man gets a little frustrating.

Then ignore them. It makes the board go round. Makes it fun for all. There probably are many "viewers" who see the discourse and think, wow, want to join a board that has a healthy discussion/debate going on. If it is all one sided, then its like talking to yourself after awhile and to me, that gets boring. Not that I don't like hearing myself or hearing myself when I am right, or hearing others say: wow, you are right (huh), you are right; it is just I like counter viewpoints. It is a check and balance so to speak.

Cocky hangs out with children?

LOL! I could make some slams on my former abode-on-the-internet, but I'll refrain.

LN is OK in my book. She sometimes pisses me off with her bullheadedness and anti-authoritarian stances, but that stuff kinda goes with being young, now doesn't it?

Gotta remember OCA, I used to live on a "Librulls-R-Us" website populated by a few thinking liberals from both sides of the big pond, and the more common h. librullus Americanus in the vein of Rosie O'Donnell.

I was invited by cockySOB and then invited some other liberals. Lily would be one I believe.

Yep!

Hey......I'm older than Cocky and I've known him longer than Liberal Nation! Just wanted to get that in.

Women just get finer with age! Just like fine wines!

Don't 'ch just know it!

[loosecannon]

Its just a temporary thing and i'm dead serious on that. Of all the libs that have graced the two boards over the years very few have stuck around for any length of time, I think its the arena of ideas thing that throws them for a loop.

because children ^ say the damndest things

[Mr. P]

Don't 'ch just know it!

Hey! Those don't get better, just errrr a bit lower.

[lily]

Damn.........you made me look!

Sometimes, others, it is engaging to discuss things with those that don't share the same view point. In other words, "Debate Policy."

Oh I agree 100%. I just can't stand the annoying ones, and most of them will never, ever, admit that they are wrong.

A woman isn't truly sexy until she's hit 50 and is in awsome shape. Then you know she's a keeper.

[glockmail]

That's the one aspect that does not get better with age. But... its a minor one compared to the others.

[LiberalNation]

I just can't stand the annoying ones, and most of them will never, ever, admit that they are wrong.

and I bet that's how most of the libs on this board feel about cons.

[CockySOB]

Oh I agree 100%. I just can't stand the annoying ones, and most of them will never, ever, admit that they are wrong.

And I'm trying to remember if you ever admitted being wrong yourself. Seriously glock, you come off sounding the same way. I wish I could say most of the time, but it's all of the time.
