birdog1960 Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 In other words, your disdain for certain people gets in the way of a charity getting maximum donations. And somehow you think that your vindictive attitude towards fairness is making things better because it makes YOU feel better about yourself, while ignoring a more noble goal. No wonder you favor the politics of envy that embody income distribution. It's not about making things better, it's about you feeling better about yourself because you meted out justice against the bad ol rich guys. um, no. the way to make things better isn't to play in charity golf outings, silent auctions or horse shows (although, for a focused need they can provide a short term boost). it's to support candidates and issues like health care reform, living wage, gun control etc. now, if my local npr or pbs station had an outing, i'd be there with bells on but likely, the cheaters wouldn't be.

Tiberius Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 You know, I used to sorta like you when you waxed colorful, but you are certainly acting like a big bore now. I didn't choose to join your tournament because frankly I prefer your humor to your judgement. There are certain posters here who I refuse to debate because I wouldn't want to lower myself to your level and there is no way I'm going to invest any more than a fart in their direction. You don't have the gravitas to get me to change my mind. You wouldn't lower yourself? I thought you are low as it got around here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utter baloney, local public radio stations get most of their support from a handful big ticket donations. You know, from the people you constantly B word about. I bet you sleep well at night thinking that Marxism will catch one eventually, if not for those pesky capitalist kids and their dog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4merper4mer Posted October 10, 2013 Author Share Posted October 10, 2013 The winner of the first match is LeviF91. I thought both participants excelled at this game and regret pairing them against one another. If all of the matches are this good it will be interesting. LeviF91 was declared the winner for taking the more aggressive stance in the war of words. keepthefaith put up an admirable fight but in my judgement he was more responsive to LeviF91 whereas LeviF91 took the battle to him. I can't say that I am convinced either way whether the Redskins should change their name or not. Both sets of arguments were good. For keepthefaith there is a silver lining: Due to his disgusting habit of ingesting cow sperm and his initial reluctance to be insulting , Jboyst62 has been eliminated from the competition. keepthefaith has inherited his first round entry and will be matched up against someone else later in the round. LeviF91 is moving on to the second round. Don't get too cocky guys, there were several possible finishing moves that you both missed, but the overall effort was solid. The next first round match up will be announced soon. I will leave the LeviF91 vs. keepthefaith thread up for 2 or 3 days for everyone's reading enjoyment.

No reason to play tough guy when it gets ya no where but thank you for the compliment. I'll explain the cow/semen thing when you're older. I've been doing a lot of research in it recently. I will be getting a new herd sire in a few months. In the new one, what role can the internet have as far as being the media? Is YouTube media? Is Google search media? Is 4chan /b media?

Anything influenced by Hollywood so they can claim Youtube if they can make the connection. Same with Google but I don't see any connection between Hollywood and some doofus Bills fans that want the old coach back. I mean give it up. Gailey was a good dude but he sucked.

I respect everyone's opinion, even if I disagree. Good luck guys Well, we all have disappointments in life but you've been fortunate enough to have seen the light then. Getting bounced prior to the starters pistol going off has to be a crushing blow. I applaud you for being such a gentleman and all around good sport. Really though---sperm is chewy? I too got a little surprise when that count under my screen name increased yesterday. Instead of the parody of DCTom (and his few words that has gotten him to 40,000 posts) when I called you names maybe I should have called you just a Wednesday instead. I just thought the whole thing was a garden party, but i've learned my lesson well. You can't please everyone so you might as well just please yourself.

3rdnlng Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 so easy and you make it so hard, Just piss off Simon and you no longer exist. Piss off Simon? I never said it was he who thought my object lesson to the OP who thought it could be a "gaffe" to pick EJ over Geno was misusing the word "gaffe". I merely pointed out to the OP what a "gaffe" was. Am I so wrong in knowing that the U.S. has 50 states rather than 57? Should I be punished for knowing that Hawaii is not a part of Asia? Maybe if I made a comment about "Nucular" being a gaffe I wouldn't have drawn such ire? The question is, would John Stewart get a pass here? What this amounts to is that I never make political comments other than in PPP. I even have another screen name over at Sabre Space so my political views don't cause a problem there with the panty waists who think the Sabres should all be tough guys and still be 40 goal scorers. Anyway, when I post on the main board I never insult or use any political language. The fact that I told the truth and didn't try to make it political and then got accused of making it political is bs. The president of the U.S. should know what continent the 50th state is included with and also know that we have 50 states, not 57. I used these examples of what consists of real gaffes. I think i know now why Garfunkle left him. keepthefaith made one fatal mistake: he forgot who the judge was. Good luck in your re-try at round one, pal. Levi, my friend, you need to step up your game. I thought you had him initially but was surprised not only with his responses but with his skill. You got lucky with this one and should be thankful that Crayola has a certain favoritism when it comes to insults. KTF is still hanging around and has learned his lesson. You just might see him again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All aspects of entertainment are included in this debate: Movies, video games, pop music, rap music, pop culture, etc.. I've been hanging around PPP lately because of this competition. I thought it was a great idea and hoped to be entertained for some time with it. I was a little concerned that it was going to be judged by one individual.....but I can live with that. I became put off a bit further when it became apparent that aggressive insults were going to be viewed as a positive rather than a negative....but as that would add an extra element of colour to the dialogue I was content with that also. Then I saw the topic for the 2nd debate. Which aspect of the scourge that is Hollywood has done more damage to our country in the last 30 years.....sex or violence? The question of "Has Holywood sex and violence damaged the country?" would be a debatable topic. To question which one has caused more damage, when there is a questionable premise of whether either has actually done any damage makes it a non debatable topic. It would be a bit like asking if it is the QB or Coach that has had more of an influence on why the Cowboys are currently a great team.

keepthefaith Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 (edited) keepthefaith made one fatal mistake: he forgot who the judge was. Good luck in your re-try at round one, pal. You may be right. The first post was mostly BS as I thought the judge might appreciate it but the winning formula is clearer now. Glad we had fun with that but my comment that you are a sitting duck in round two was a serious one. Only favoritism by the judge (again) will keep you alive. For the record, I think Snyder should fight these idiots to the very end and ride the wave of public support that should happen as these overly sensitive groups step up their attack.
