Well, ya know, I listened to so much Zappa, I can't differentiate between Reality and whatever this is.

Oh Tlted one your way of thinking reminds me of my grandfather. A different generation for sure but the same kind of mind twists. He had a classical education--he threw a bit of Greek, Latin, Spanish, Hopi and Navajo into the cockeyed mix. I loved it!!

Here is a quote I wrote down one time:

Aha!! she cried as she waved her wooden leg skyhighward till the air was filled with splinters.

Great stuff, MP!

Have you ever seen a movie called You're A Big Boy Now? Its one of those crazy 60s comedies... I haven't seen it in years. The soundtrack was mostly written and performed by John Sebastian and the Lovin' Spoonful.

Your grandfather's quote reminded me of it immediately because the lead character's main competition for the affections of a young lady (or so he thinks) is "a 54-year-old albino hypnotherapist with a wooden leg", LOL

Post a quote from me on that thread if you think so

thats my point. you said nothing when sarge was making fun of someone who might be a suicide, but pile-on when tilt says something about someone that none of us know. but i'll give you the benefit of the doubt. maybe you missed the part where he said call 9-11 so they can tell you how to kill yourself

tilts comment wasnt any worse than sarge's. sarge's was probably a hair more tasteless

personally, i really didnt have a problem with either comment. but to make an issue out of tilts comment is stupid. the only reason you guys are, is because he's "the enemy" the "silly libbie". it gets so old. and dont accuse me of taking sides. i defended you when Q started his sht. he really annoyed me, and caused me to lose a lot of respect for him. you didnt deserve that, and sarge is just stirring up a hornets nest for the axis to pile on

Slooooow down there cowboy!

I said that so they'll call 911. My experience is that most people who have gotten to the point this person seemingly was, is that they're on something (I've helped peeps on stuff from alcohol to acid)... and given the little info we had, and considering what she asked for, the best action was to trick them into calling 911. Trust me, 'hold on', or 'go hiking' doesn't work at the last stages.

Don't be so quick to be a dick there crash.

dont be so quick to call names, unprovoked. i just said i didnt have a problem with what you said. i figured you were doing a little reverse psychology

my point is stove is piling on for no other reason than tilt is a "silly libbie"

im saying youre giving sarge a pass. if a "silly libbie" had made the comments sarge did, youd be all over it. youre just piling on because its tilt

Crash, you are as bad as mapleleaf at misconstruing what you think I said.

On this thread:
““The "Bush Doctrine" is deader than Heath Ledger.” -tilt

"classless” - StoveStomper


On the "suicide" thread, the sum total of my one post was to agree that HOI has good advice.



Notice the two threads have nothing to do with one another.
That's why I say READ.



PS: I'm not sarge's keeper. He's a big boy and can say what he wants. Just like tilt does.

stove, you missed the point of what i said. i understand that you didnt say anything on the suicide thread

thats MY point. what a person DOESNT say sometimes speaks as loudly as what they DO say. you DIDNT speak up when you COULDVE. if it was a "silly libbie" that made those comments, you wouldve been calling them an insensitive lout

A simple "I'm sorry I accused you of treating a potential suicide like a troll" would have been all that was needed.

in other words, if tilt or buddha bear or laqtis had said "call 9-1-1 theyll tell you how to kill yourself" like sarge did, youd be all"OH YOU HORRIBLE CLASSLESS LIBERAL SCUM", but when sarge says it, youre mute

ultimately, i agree with sarge's approach, more or less. i wont fault him anymore for his tone, because im a bit too abrasive at times myself
