Bollocks!

Who's this bloody Admiral??
October 25, 2017 at 12:41
You should try that with Trump. Next election, knock on doors and tell people "Trump's not for you, please don't vote for him." (Y)

Ok, I'm not going do a love-thy-neighbor speech. We've had enough biblical references for one day.
October 24, 2017 at 15:20
Ok, well the possibility that you were censored is 1/1. Let's keep things if not civil at least not grossly inflammatory.
October 24, 2017 at 15:09
Proving yet again why we need you back. :)
October 24, 2017 at 14:57
Uh, you referring to Trump or Agu? The latter flame isn't going to pass my admin censor button.
October 24, 2017 at 14:52
You don't have that option? Shit, they have you by the nuts, dude. Ha, no, it was just my colourful way of explaining only half of the vids were Peter...

I just checked. The Peterson index is down to 50% and the second vid is titled "The End of Trump". I guess they've been reading my posts here. :P
October 24, 2017 at 14:46
I don't know that it's all that sophisticated. I watched a few Jordan Peterson videos and then everything was Jordan Peterson videos. I've had my fill...

Haha, I was being a little facetious. Serves you right for spamming us with Trumpaganda. ;)

Three then. Abort mission.
October 24, 2017 at 03:02
Thanks, I could hardly ask for a better demonstration of my earlier point in response to Posty. In other discussions, you say Trump is a clear example...

How many lightbulb jokes does it take to screw a comedian?
October 23, 2017 at 10:48
:D I'll stop now, don't want to take the chill out of TL's chiliagonaversary.

The military grade binoculars are on the way. (Y)

I can only hope for Agu's sake that he is trolling us with these vids and doesn't worship the overgrown Oompah Loompah as much as he makes out.
October 23, 2017 at 10:35
8-) :D
October 23, 2017 at 10:25
The second then he insists he has the biggest lolly ever made ever and refuses to share it with anyone until they write only nice things about him.
October 23, 2017 at 10:15
Watched the first twenty seconds. Apparently someone who Trump doesn't like has bad ratings. I presume the rest continued at the same kindergarten lev...

FB has a utility?? :s :)
October 23, 2017 at 02:11
To a degree that's true of course. What can happen with videos like this though is that the producers ask a bunch of students and pick the answers fro...

It doesn't follow Tiff that because most of us voted that intellectuals are often narcissists that I am a narcissist.

Wrong. Pepsi nose. Sorry, but you'll never beat that.

Good point. My melancholy manifests itself in a kind of restless good cheer these days, rather than anxiety which is the killer, so I am indeed armed ...
October 22, 2017 at 11:13
That would be my approach but it doesn't come in a bottle at the local supermarket. Telling a melancholic person to just laugh at it all is unlikely t...

Ernest Hemingway — ‘Happiness in intelligent people is the rarest thing I know.’ Philosophers are at a disadvantage from the start.

Well put. I think there is definitely an issue of psychiatric overreach, but it's unfair to demonize the entire profession for that. Rapid cycling bip...

I admit to watching only the first minute or so. Can't stomach American newsotainment.
October 21, 2017 at 17:25
That's it.
October 21, 2017 at 17:10
Yes, I'm not saying it isn't either. Who knows how messed up Trump is? He's at the very least a narcissist.
October 21, 2017 at 17:03
They are all biased. Towards money. But there is obviously some financial incentive not to be competely wrong on news as they could lose credibility.
October 21, 2017 at 16:59
This is not a news section. It's explained right below the video. "In a new book, 27 psychiatrists and mental health experts asses President Donald Tr...

It's a conversation about a book presenting the opinions in the book. They are not reading the book as if it's the news.

*Returns serve* (You don't get to gerrymander the terms of the debate to immunize yourself against evidence). Tangent over. Hopefully.
