I'm ignoring Chrysostom.

Did you not see the side of lamb I took?

Dude's next thread is going to be, "Stripe, What's Your Mutton?" :chuckle:

 

[Town Heretic]

he is just taking sides which I think is what this thread is all about

If so I'm truly sorry for you. Mind the fleas you're going to get up with.

Not reasonably, no. I'm no SOS member, or admin. I'm not a conservative and, recently, the response of those in power to Sod inferring I was homosexual was on par with just about nothing being done at all. Not exactly a recipe for Sod's mistaken and self serving descriptive.

I take the stands I believe in. I'm confident in my arguments. I've never stooped to school yard level name calling. I've managed to fight my fights without resorting to the sort of behavior that results in an infraction, let alone being put in the penalty box, despite being the occasional recipient of the sort of histrionically emotional and insultingly low insult hurled by Sod or a few like him prior. I remain composed in the face of his nonsense, so he has to ascribe an attitude in keeping with his emotional bias. In fact it's only a reflection of my having had serious debates with actual, meaningful consequences in the real world of my profession. I don't get too excited here. This is enjoyable, mostly. I suspect that bothers him more than a little given his practice and its aim.

:e4e:

You don't get too excited here? Could have fooled me.

 

[Arthur Brain]

:darwinsm: Good example of prejudicial discourse! Of course, no "objective" person would think such about Townie. And, yes, followed on by the implication that sod will disregard any such criticism.

Is saying that someone thinks they own the place another example of 'prejudicial' discourse? :think: Objectively how could such an argument hold up in regards to TH? :idunno:

 

[Dena]

Hi Rusha! :wave:

That's all I've got.

 

[Town Heretic]

Then I've fooled you, though I honestly didn't mean to. :nono:

I don't know how to go at it without a certain spirited quality, but I don't tend toward the emotional. At least not in debate. It's a matter of training and habit, I suppose.

I'm sorry that you see this thread as an attempt to annoy you. I thought we might be able to use it to discuss our differences, away from cluttering up threads, the chatbox or the woodshed.

I encourage you to return with an open mind to see if we can find some common ground.

She is pro-life and pro-death penalty. Maybe you two can find common ground on those issues.

 

[The Barbarian]

I've seen you complain about The Barbarian being allowed to stay on here.

This is about an obsession over me that goes back a long way. It's just the latest attempt to somehow get even for embarrassments I never intended to inflict. Each time seems to be more strident, and this time, it seems to have spilled over to anger at an increasing number of others here.

Not a good sign.

:rotfl:

We know when Barbarian is upset. He starts the "you're angry" routine. :chuckle:

Soon he'll be insisting he's won the argument because someone calls him a name...

He didn't seem angry to me...I reckon he could care less about names really. He certainly doesn't throw about smileys as if they're going outta fashion and I'm yet to see the guy call people 'tards' or something equally asinine...

 

[The Barbarian]

Smileys are Stipe's way of proving he's not angry.

How long?

At this point, I believe you might inform me of your definition of "prejudicial discourse." It seems much different from mine. As it is, I believe TH is less prejudicial than some who are of a socialist bent.

All this means to me is that, in the main, you agree with him.

:rotfl: Complaining about smilies are Barbie's way of showing that he is angry.

How long?

Years. Hard to say exactly where it started, or the first thing that got him started.
