Political quotes

“TB - was he a writer for Backpacker? The time Nigal said he didn't finish an issue because he had to throw it across the room when his knees fell asleep really cracked me up.”

“Great movie, Tree. Too bad Costner’s coffin scene was cut. That movie rings a lot of bells. What with me coming from the north, living in the south now, most of my college friends are pretty successful, and we’re all huge Gator fans.

Almost Famous! That’s another great movie for me. The kid is my age and I loved the music.

Sorry for jumping around like that. I have no attention span.



I don’t think that lengthy attention span has ever been a quality that many people posses…

…But if I say that it’s been getting worse since the MTV generation, I’ll be headed down the slippery slope of no return. AAAAAAAHHH…don’t let me go there!

I LOVE gangsta rap. Honest…really…it’s true. Wanna see my underwear?”

“What with me coming from the north, living in the south now

So, what does that make you? A carpetbagger with a lousy sense of direction?

j/k Had to say it!


'Almost Famous' is one I have always wanted to see. But, I don't put in a lot of time with movies these days. It sounds like one that's right up my alley. Thanks for mentioning it. I may just have to rent it and make time to watch it!

As for "The Big Chill", I saw it in the theater when it came out. I'd be lying if I said that I didn't relate to apsects of Nick's character. But, I have to say that Kasdan's use of the music was fantastic! My fav was 'You Can't Always Get What You Want.' When they segued from the organ intro into the guitar and into Mick's vocals, I got goosebumps...

This is Tree! Darned woman! Changing names on my computer again...

“I always tell my writers to assume people have the attention span of a gerbil.”

“Stove Stomper never did catch up to my Shrubbish quotes.”

“Backpackers' political quotes answering Phaedrus' thread are informed and erudite, but our Phaedrus is quoted below and I've never seen such venonmous words about someone else's ideas and contentions.

The Phaedrus remarks below are about PedX's "The Conspiracy" thread of the summer of 2001, a thread that was about a manuscript that augured 9/11. Phaedrus' remarks of last week about that thread can only aid the lame Congressional commission and the lame Gov. Keane 9/11 investigating commission coverups of real prior U.S. intelligence knowledge of 9/11.

I wish Violin would resonate here. Ike's resonance can be heard when he said "Beware of the military-industrial complex" just before leaving office.

Do look at Phaedrus' quoting himself about my 1999 Library of Congress Copyrighted manuscript that PedX posted in the summer of 2001
about the U.S. military-industrial-criminal complex that I avow had prior knowledge of 9/11 and the whole manuscript is readable at [url]www.geocities.com/millennium revolution[/url]

Phaedrus avers:

"I've been reading this, Krangle. If you wouldn't mind, would you answer a couple of intrusive and blunt questions honestly?

1. Have you ever been diagnosed with paranoid delusions?

2. If so, why do you discount the diagnosis, and if not, have you talked with a psychologist whom you trust?

I'm not trying to be insulting, but rather to understand the workings of your thought process. Like Violin, I am trying not to judge your work as immediately as my first impression would have indicated.”

“professor, don't get bent about Phaedrus.

Whenever he disagrees with someone his whole argument centers around this premise:

Your facts, your figures, your sources, your statistics are all wrong. I know what's right and I don't need to present any information to back me up.

It's pathetic, really. Just ignore him and hopefully he'll go away.”

“man, i wish i had a stalker, too”

“I used to have one.

Hey! What's happening cb? How's it hang'n?”

“sarge, do me a favor and never speak to me”

“"Fart proudly."

-Benjamin Franklin”

“I do care about you crash. Sincerely. And I miss you too. I miss our little talks. Please don't be angry with me. Well, not really when you were stalking me, but ... well ... yeah, you're right. It's best we just let bygones be bygones.

Good-bye crash. May you always be happy and healthy.

Oh! And may you one day kick that nasty potato chip habit.

“youre such a true christian, sarge.

jesus would be proud.”

“Yeah crash, sarge means it. He really cares...

“Oh, he's just mad because I busted on him worse than he busted on me. He started it! Na-na-na-na-boo-boo.”

“Funny how you big boys dish it out, but you can't take it. Hey crash, remember when you first started your crap and I begged and pleaded for you to stop the childish talk, but you kept on and then I finally joined in?

Now you're mad at me.

So sorry, I figured you could take it. My bad.”

“im not mad at you. i cant stand you. you are what you are. i cant be mad at you for being yourself.”

“Ah, that's sweet. I'm sorry you can't stand me. Maybe now you know how I felt when you badgered me all those times and I asked you to stick to the topic. Maybe it's the mirror you can't stand. I only gave you what you asked for. You don't like what you see in the mirror. That's understandable. Maybe you'll think twice about being a punk next time, 'cos, as you know, you don't like punks.”

“Good for you crash on taking the high road here. Best to just nip the negative crap in the bud rather than drag it out post after post after post after post…

I have a hard time myself when it comes to just letting sarge’s crap go.”

“Ah BS Nigal. crash bang antagonized me and he knows it. You and your PC crap, now he thinks he isn't wrong for what he did. You need to get a pair Nigal. Some people are 40+ years old and can't handle themselves because nobody made them take responsibility for their actions. You might as well pay his bills and wipe his butt for him while you're at it.

I don't care if you think my arguments are crap Nigal. You don't have to debate with me. Your PC attitude doesn't mesh with my straightforward style anyways. Nobody makes you take my "crap". You stick up for the underdog, I stick up for who's right. We don't mesh. Fine. Stop the personal attacks though. If you'll notice, you are the one insulting me, not the other way around. But I don't cry about it like you and your buddy.”

“Thank you for confirming my point. Man, you’re easy.

One big difference between us sarge. I can ignore you but your infantile ego demands attention. By all means be yourself. Just don’t be it around me.”

“More unsolicited personal insults...”

“LOL! I've felt like calling Nigal names plenty of times, but PC was never one of 'em! Nigal can outflank Bacpac in being un-PC and in making liberals howl with anger.

I was gonna whine about Nigal joining in the fray here, but I gotta say, I love that line: "By all means be yourself. Just don’t be it around me.” I think I'm gonna steal it some time (but I'll have to save it for someone who really deserves it).”

“Funny, I'd actually come here to post a clarification. I did not post Professor Krangle's copyrighted manuscript. I posted a link to it. Perhaps that's a fine distinction, but doing so left the text under Prof. Krangle's control, since he could edit or remove the site altogether as he chose.”

“Good idea pedx about stealing that classic line. It's awesome! Hey, by the way, how are the conspiracy theories coming? You never answered my direct question about the inability to name the company in question and the unreasonable linkeage attributed to that unnamed company and Bush.”

“I have answered further, kind sir.”

““LOL! I've felt like calling Nigal names plenty of times, but PC was never one of 'em!”

I know. WTF?

“Nigal can outflank Bacpac in being un-PC and in making liberals howl with anger.”

Not any more. I refuse to let faceless people on the net be the thing I am most passionate about in a day.

“I was gonna whine about Nigal joining in the fray here, but I gotta say, I love that line: "By all means be yourself. Just don’t be it around me.” I think I'm gonna steal it some time (but I'll have to save it for someone who really deserves it).”

Aw, I was just winding the boy up a bit. There’s absolutely no use discussing anything with sarge. It’s an exercise in futility. I think sarge is the one single person on TT that doesn’t see everyone disagrees with him and can’t stand him.

And feel free to use any and all material I have to offer. Except for the name "phucktard". I still reserve rights on that burn.”

“I don't have a problem with Sarge and I've been arguing with him plenty. I see him get locked into pissing contests - and stepping around the puddles they leave can be annoying to step around - but most of the folks on fuego seem to do that. Fuego kind of invites that.”

“Really at the end of the day I couldn't care less what others think or say. It doesn't effect me in the least when someone calls me wrong or anything else. I have found my ultimate creamy center and am zen 24/7. :)”

“Nigal, you are the one name calling. Not me. Did you not notice that?

as for Crash, he was badgering me months ago and kept on until very recently. I asked him to stop plenty of times before I started back in kind.

Don't mischaracterize what is happening here to prop up your self-rightousness.”

“LOL Nigal - that sounds like a dare. Who can be the first to generate enough flame that Nigal's creamy center breaks into sharp brittle shards??”

“Bring it on Ped! I am impenetrable! My creamy center is well protected.”

“Well, Pedxing (and I am definitely not him) might have to invent a troll to do it!”

“That's got Ped's dirty little Heb finger prints all over it. LOL!”

“I could have made it, NotPedxing, but that would have been too unoriginal.”

“I'm the W.C. Fields of Judiasm.

I would not stoop so low as to join any branch that would accept me as a convert.”

“More when I am really bored and really have time on my hands.”

“I knew it had to be you. Only two people have ever called me Naugahyde. You and a Messyanist named Bernard. And I know you ain't Bernie.”

“LOL! I was sure it was totally obvious with the first post.

I was trying to broadcast it, besides I'm too f---ing impulsive in my posts to troll effectively. I already F-'ed up by posting something w/out changing back the screen name.”

“Buy hey, I never called you naugahyde (did I) I just talked about the comparison between naugahyde and noahide.”

“LOL! It was enough to know.”

“LOL! Man! You guys are going to bust a gut you're so jolly!

LOL!

Throw a couple more of 'em in there for good luck while you're at it.”

“Sarge - When Nigal is on, he is one of the funniest people here. I've been taking potshots at Nigal for more than 5 years now, and he's definitely returned as good as he got. Heck, I knew him back when he was a born again Christian, before being re-reincarnated as a wanna-be-jew.

If you haven't read his reviews of Backpacker, you should check 'em out. See, for example, his Jan 25, 2005 review (first post on the thread for that date): http://www.thebackpacker.com/trailtalk/thread/26250,-1,7.php will get you to the right page for now.

“Yeah, he's a hoot. He busts on me out of nowhere. What a guy. (honestly, it doesn't bother me, but it is pathetic to watch him call me names, unsolicited, and then say I am hard to get along with. In the real world, that doesn't work. I guess for some it's easy to hide behind their keyboard)”

“Nigal is a liberal.”

“PC = PathetiC?”

“No Ped,

PC=Penile Colossal”

“Are you calling yourself a Big Pr-c-?”

“I do care about you crash. Sincerely. And I miss you too. I miss our little talks. Please don't be angry with me. Well, not really when you were stalking me, but ... well ... yeah, you're right. It's best we just let bygones be bygones.

I have one question for ya Sarge, from one Christian to another. Does this kinda stuff really represent who we are to represent? Why get mad over stuff on an internet board? I am guilty of it (its been a while) but lots of people are reading and follow this stuff. Just let it go. Use the ignore feature if needed. Turn the other cheek.”

“oh and Nigal PC, that is too funny. I cant believe this site could even let those words into the same sentence.”

“
the other cheek”
