I've deleted dozens of posts just in the last couple of days and I've had enough of baseless complaints we're not moderating the thread, especially by...

We don't spend every moment of our day watching this thread, therefore moderation not being instant is not evidence that it won't be forthcoming. You ...

Sounds like that movie, 'When Halibut met Sally'.

Not always... :halo:

Or we can point out that nothing fundamental about Russian culture has changed since they were the world's heroes for overthrowing communism.

E.g. That's a better way to make the point.

It's right to point out prejudice, which was on display in Christoffer's post, but all of you are looking for excuses to make each other look as bad a...

A lot of that back and forth is just going to get deleted anyhow and I don't know who's bullying who but there's not much in the way of charitable int...

It's a nice one for the newspapers for a week or two, but other than that it's a big zero

The problem in your comments as I see it is the overgeneralization. Critiques of culture require nuance and objectivity, which you've lacked. You are ...

I'll make an official announcement soon, but, yes, sounds good.

:lol:

Much as this Mark-of-Cain-for-Ukraine-Nazi-thesis-perpetrators sounds like fun, I think Big Bird will probably be against it. Anyhow, the vitriol on t...

Posters should argue in good faith. But if we were to mod everything we thought was false, we'd not unjustifiably be accused of censorship and bias.

I said I'd judge that reaction when and if that comparison becomes valid. My argument is against the validity of the specific comparison, not against ...

I don't know, why did Big Bird kill Snuffleupagus? What is the relevance of this to anything I said?

The vast majority of people would never have heard of Ukraine if all that happened was what's happening in Somalia. You used an example because it was...

We call it a lollipop for all I care. It's irrelevant. What is relevant is the differences in the circumstances. When and if the U.S. send hundreds of...

Nothing I said involved taking a position on U.S. troops in Somalia. It's consistent to be absolutely against that move and recognize that the US hasn...

I couldn't care less what Putin or NATO say about it. The comparison is valid or invalid based on reality not what competing propagandists say. Americ...

The Somalia angle might make sense if what happened in Ukraine was that Zelensky asked Putin for a couple of hundred Russian troops to help suppress a...

I'm aware everyone hates each other and we are possibly in an episode of Sesame Street where Big Bird beheads Snuffleupagus and hangs the Cookie Monst...

Ok.

Make an argument if you have one and no more silly videos, please.

It means what it says. Not sure where the confusion lies...

Now someone's going to tell me there's the wrong number of syllables. :lol:

I've read only a few Haikus in my life I thought were really good. One of them is: Even in Kyoto Hearing the cuckoo's cry I long for Kyoto Source: htt...

It's not that trivially simple. Big capital can get unequivocally fucked over too by changes in monetary and fiscal policy, which is why they're so ac...

My failure is bad So bad, I feel that I must Say sorry to my goat Fuck it. I give up.

Hanover falls From a tree Happiness We still doin' Haikus, right?

It's ok if you have something new to say and/or the issue has become current again, as with the Roe v Wade thread. That's not bumping. Bumping is post...

My to-do list for the day: Give granny more-fatal cancer. Murder all preborns. Take dog for a walk.

Don't blame Wiki for your amateur attempts at spin. And if you think I haven't been critical of NATO, you haven't been reading the thread. Of course, ...

One of the current Irish parties of government has its roots in the Irish fascist 'blue shirt' movement of the thirties. Have they anything to do with...

Your issue is trying to throw mud at Sweden and Finland by dragging up irrelevancies like pre-Nazi swastikas and a few fascist policeman from the thir...

It looks like you have your head so deep in... somewhere... that you've forgotten the Nazi-Soviet pact. /uploads/resized/files/o6/8cgrhmvg4a64xn3i.jpg...

In what? Do you read your own sources? The symbol had nothing to do with Hitler or Nazism.

@"frank" Democracy doesn't unequivocally equal majority rule. E.g. Northern Ireland is a democracy, but the majority (as in majority community) is spe...

Are there any other innocent old people we can wish hindsight cancer on for ethical reasons? You never know what harm granny might cause if we don't k...

Anyway, the Christian Taliban and the Dems are the two big winners here, so let's call it a draw.

Americans now get to vote on the issue, like most other countries. The end.

I just guessed everyone called him Dick. :snicker: Hm, I may have forgotten to think about the children.

Dick Hanover 1 Dirty Mud Cabin Shit Creek Backwoods Mountain Georgia 'Murica @"Hanover" That right?

About 3/3 of the rice I gifted Hanover has significantly more than the recommended arsenic intake. Hope it made it to the right address. :chin:

No, I believe his name was 'Love Candy', which coincidentally is the name of Hanover's favourite font.
