  • I'll bet Woody's father was happy as hell when he shipped off to College. Just saying.......

  • I'd imagine so. I mean, I was going to a great school that he knew was my top choice and I was getting an engineering degree, which he also did. Aside from the very high tuition costs he was probably very happy/proud for his son...

  • So when someone says let's kill all Muslims, should I take that as a threat? 🙂

    Oh probably.

    And still guys I suggest you try to mitigate your damages. Putting assholes on ignore is the best way if you are unable to avoid their posts that offend you so.

  • How do you do that? I couldn't find it from my phone

  • So Vapor, are you going to specialize in Geriatric medicine? Me, Cal, and WSS need a PCP.

  • When anger turns towards bigotry across the board, it's always

    self-defeating to the angry person. Not all nazis

    hated and murdered Jews.

    There are always a small minority in any race, or group of whatever kind,

    that is a blight to the reputation of the group they allegedly ? belong to.

    It pitifully ignores all the rest of the majority that shouldn't be classed as the bad guys.

    Hating all "x" because of a smaller, despicable element in "x" isn't smart.

    OMG Cal I can't believe you just said that. It brings a tear to my eye.

    Actually, I don't need one yet, because when I turned 50, I started counting backwards so when

    I get into my 80's, I'll actually be only 20-something. And I don't look my age because I'm chronically

    immature.... At least after meeting Vapor at the tailgate, he probably doesn't think I look close to 64....

  • So you're kind of like the male Joan Rivers of the BB.

    Actually when you get in to your 80s you'll be hitting your 'teen' years.

    50->50

    60->40

    70->30

    79->21

    82->18

  • Ha. Except I didn't count backwards when I was in the service,

    because I didn't want to violate the UCMJ as far as lying to

    a superior officer. That's four years, puts me back into the twenties. 😎

  • If I said I was going to kill Cal, and posted pictures of a bunch of deformed dead bodies, I would have already been banned...

    I'm fairly certain no one has ever called for nor will ever call for you to be banned. Come to think of it, besides you has anyone else asked for a ban to be handed out?

  • This is why america rocks! You want to be a dick? Go for it. You don't like it? Ignore it. Obviously certain lines cannot be crossed, but if you haven't learned by now how to ignore name calling then I don't know what to tell you because the world is a cruel and mean place at times.

    If you still name call and use the word "faggot" as an insult you probably have the maturity of a high schoolers and hopefully know that it gets you nowhere and makes you look like an idiot. And this is coming from someone who hates PC bullshit.

    Not by me. I would have pulled the thread and sent you a message or told you on the board to quit being such an asshole. If you kept it up I would contact administrators who may or may not boot you off.

    Also no one who had you on ignore would ever have to see the pictures. And frankly I doubt that you were really traumatized by them.

    I'm just saying I thought we had rules for a reason... But I guess not... Hippie

  • I'm not sure if there is a hard and fast rule requiring civil conversation among board members.

    You know like no personal attacks no insults etc etc...

    If there was, and it were up to you, would you enforce it with a zero tolerance policy?

    WSS

  • Let me remind you folks that zombo is an administrator and ghoolie a long standing member. Did you really think anyone was going to enforce some kind of civil conversation rule?
