    I don't think he is. He tried to come back recently and get under somebody's -- anybody's -- skin and it didn't work. He tried REAL hard to get me to take the bait because he DID have a problem with me. He finally left of his own accord that I know of.

    Howdy. I'm looking for a new home for arguing politics. I've looked around this place a bit, and I really like what I see. I'm an educated liberal redneck. My greatest fear is that someday the rubes who fluff trump will catch on to how they are being suckered, and I won't have anybody to play with.

    Welcome! It's interesting mix here, we're small but passionate. Unlike Scaramucci not too often vulgar.

    I find vulgarity tacky, but I don't mind rumbling some. I am a refugee of sorts, looking for a new place to play. Not banned from my current place, but bouncing around, because one rightard mod there went on a rampage. Also, we have been joined by a particularly boring batch of Deplorables. I am something of a scout for 5-10 others, depending. The last two places I set up did not work out well, so my recommendations may not carry the weight they did. I see you have a "steel cage" section if things get particularly heated. I do like what I've seen of the posts here, though I don't know if this place is as active as I'd like to see. Haven't investigated that much, though.

    Why is it that Deplorables always have over-compensating macho monikers and avatars? Oh, I guess I answered my own question.

    You and @PostmodernProphet are invited to start your own thread, in the Cage.

    This doesn't belong in the introductions. Thank you.

    I get the sense you are trying to hurt my feelings. Luckily for me, you hit like a sissy.

    Check your senses. Can't hurt anyone who has no feelings. As for the sissy part. Just trying to make you feel comfortable by imitating you.

    I've read the instructions, and I've posted with this kind of software before, but I could not post a video here. I used facebook and youtube as the source, and I posted with the url using the video icon and without it. Do I need to do it as an attachment? Am I too new? Anybody help a newbie out?

    This is the easiest way to post Youtube videos. Just copy the URL at the top of the youtube page, that's it from the Youtube side.

    Then when back here"

    While in a post, click on the "film strip" icon:



    Then simply place the URL of the youtube video in the box that opens up. That's it!

Need I say more?” - Chris Rock
