Merca.

[Hermit]

He's saying that Coit's butthurt about criticism of Merca is annoying to him. He can't spoiler Coits stuff.

..is tedious. Also, I would not want to spoiler Coito's tantrums even if I could. If you wish to speak on my behalf, get it right.

What the fuck are you talking about?

I bolded the most relevant parts to help you get around your problem concerning comprehension skills. Once you finally get that message, I'm sure you will eventually be able to connect the rest of the dots.

You need to learn to fucking read. I said that you can't spoiler Coits stuff (as that was what Robert_S was saying you should do). NOT that you want to spoiler it. It's a simple fucking difference. Instead of being a defensive shit all the time, how bout you pull the stick out of your arse and read what is written objectively.

Reading comprehension does not seem to be your strength. I said no such thing as "Coit's butthurt about criticism of Merca is annoying." I did say "His repeated tantrums are getting more than tedious", meaning they are getting positively soporific.

What in the fuck is the need to even make a distinction on this point??? Why are you so fucking hateful that you can't just accept a helping hand when you get it? And why the fuck couldn't you just write that clearly, particularly after I pointed out how retarded your sentence composition was? Do you understand how to construct a clear passage of sentences?

I don't know why I am even bothering, but I'm going to explain this to you rationally. "Tedious" and "annoying" aren't fucking mutually exclusive. In fact, they are very fucking similar. In fact they share fucking synonyms in the thesaurus. Can you understand this exceedingly simple point?

Newsflash: There's a reason why we have one word for being bored by something and a different one for something that annoys us. So, please don't put the wrong word into my mouth. I am not annoyed by Coito's repeated rants about alleged anti-USA prejudices. I just find it boring that he can't help himself for compulsively compensating for his inferiority complex with them. The repetitiveness is, uhm, well, tedious.

It's not as though I can't be annoyed by things people say, but Coito's rants about the respective values and vices of The USA and Europe are not among them, thanks.

Who gives a fuck? What the hell is wrong with you?

Rev. Respectfully speaking, having read this thread end to end, it seems to me that you are misreading posts and misinterpreting intent.

You also have adopted a very aggressive and dismissive tone from the start, which inevitably drew a sharp response. This seemed to me to be an example of being happy to give it but not take it.

Yup.

[Collector1337]

There's certainly history, and the level of my response might have been over the top for the the cases in this thread. But everyone is responsible for what they write, particularly if they don't retract past instances where they've clearly been shown to be wrong. That's the case with Coito and Hermit. Everything has a context.

The other thing to say, is I find Coito's ablism fucking offensive. It's not much better than racism or sexism. I call him names, he calls me names. No problems, as far as I am concerned. Just look at Seth and I. We call each other names all the time, and imply that the other is an idiot. But there's a BIG difference between that and bringing up someone's mental illness in a debate in which it has nothing to do with the debate. THAT'S fucking low, and Coit has done it at least twice now. If he said that to me in real life, he'd get a smack in head. What I do to him here is the best I can manage over the electrons.

Look who's butthurt now.

That's it, no recess for any of you. The next one that says something nasty gets 10 minutes in the Naughty Chair.

Where's the rule book that says that anyone has to retract anything? And just as people are responsible for what they write, people are even more responsible for what they READ. Nobody's forcing you to come here and read anything that disturbs your Wa.

Just because you think someone has been "shown to be wrong" doesn't make it so.

Finally, a cop I could get along with.

In the beginning of the article,

"Last month, he told a story to a local Tea Party group about how he was stopped by police officers in a neighboring town for displaying his machine gun to a friend, even though he was in full dress uniform. And that, Kessler said, is the problem with law enforcement today in a nutshell."

A cop in full uniform has a rifle and someone calls the cops on him? What the fuck? That is definitely what is wrong with cops today in a nutshell AND the idiot sheeple cocksuckers who call them for stupid shit. You should be fined for wasting police time for nonsense like that.

“They want to kick butt and take names, and ruin lives, over nonsense. They terrorize people over a turn signal,” he said, wearing an Oath Keepers t-shirt. “I’ve got better things to do with my time than worry about somebody who’s got a broken taillight. Seriously, I really do.”

This is why I think most cops are scum. They get their jollies ruining people's lives over complete and utter nonsense, meanwhile, the real criminals roam free.

I agree with this.

It's refreshing to know there are some decent ones out there.

But this is a non-sequitur. Just because he realises how stupid it is to get worked up over minor issues, doesn't mean he is a decent cop. He's a nutbag who should be sacked and watched VERY closely by the FBI.

Why? Because he lawfully owns machine guns, likes to shoot them, and has a dim view of fucktards who get all in a tizzy because he's exercising his constitutional rights. It's not like he went to the south side of Philly and opened up.

@Coit... I know heaps about the US. We are swamped with US news here. I have USian friends. You, on the other hand, are relatively clueless about events outside the US.

You have a segment of your society that is horribly sick.

Absolutely true. They're called "Socialists, Progressives, Marxists and the dependent class."

Just give me a warning. There's nothing to discuss. I crossed the line.

I think you need a little vacation. Clearly you've let your emotions take over. It's understandable given the amount of stress you're under and letting you vent for a while is probably a good thing, but I think you need to hang up the keyboard and go for a walk in the sunshine and regain some perspective.

Really. With all my good intentions. Go for a walk.

They don't. I'm just saying that if they don't then that justifies (to me) my overly aggressive attitude to them.

Honestly, I'm sick of you delicate little flowers constantly reporting me. I know I abuse you and Coit from time to time, but you two also abuse me. I've got not problem with that, and I've never reported you (here at ratz) or coit. For someone who constantly goes on about how tough life is and how we just need to accept that and deal with it, you deal with it (in the case of me calling you names) in a very non-tough way.

But in the case of coito, I won't accept ablism from him. It's fucking pathetic and low. As well as just plain bigoted.

How so? Are you inevitably right? Don't answer that, it was a rhetorical question because we all know that you are frequently wrong.

Why does your obviously flawed judgment "justify" an "overly aggressive attitude?"

Sounds a lot like intolerant, arrogant bigotry.

I didn't report you, I merely suggested you get out of the house for a bit, as a bit of friendly advice from someone who knows you're under a lot of stress right now and may be in need of some diversion.

But in the case of coito, I won't accept ablism from him. It's fucking pathetic and low. As well as just plain bigoted.

How...bigoted of you.
