Funny, Part 2

There is an ignore feature on the board if you go to your User CP. It works great except when someone quotes the person you have on ignore.

Thanks for pointing that out.

I haven't followed all the stuff that's been going on, and I'm too lazy to chase it all down.

Sorry to lose you EL. I will say this. In the little I did read you went overboard. You let your emotions get the better of you and the tone of your sports related posts didn't make anyone sympathetic to your cause. The other guys probably crossed the line too, but they were much less strident than you. They'd push your buttons with a few sentences, and you'd go off on a shrill full page tirade. What are you thinking man? After all these years you should know you're not going to change anyone's mind, so it's not worth getting too upset over. Just my 2 cents brother, chill out a while and come on back when you regain your perspective, it'll be ah-ite.

Anyway, didn't vote on the new board, because I have no opinion on a sports board.

Did vote yes on a no holds barred board where those of a like mind could duke it out, and yes act like a bunch of idiots, because I think it would've been fun. I fear no internet hack out there.

The hate when Bush was president is 100 x worse than the rhetoric being directed at the dems and the current administration.

I'd LOVE for one time for you guys to admit that......JUST ONCE....

lol! Yeah, right. The righties on the board have gone waaaaay beyond any of the bashing that the lefties did on Bush.

I do agree with you that we are waaaay past due for some real leadership in this country.

I know I'm definitely guilty of being way out of line on some of the things I have wrote about Obama...however what I have wrote here is nothing compared to what I would say in conversation with someone.

It's not a left or right thing with me....it's more about the POTUS himself. Clinton was ok by me...Bush #1 was ok by me, Bush #2 fell below Clinton and Bush #1 in my opinion. But I can't harp on Bush #2 to much...after all, this country suffered the largest amount of civilian casualties in it's history while under his watch.

As for Obama, my gosh man...I don't know what to say...he takes the cake!! Having him for POTUS beats all I've ever seen! However...I've been wondering if Obama can have the finger pointed at him 100%....maybe the finger should be pointed at the American citizens for votiing him in in the first place. Hopefully in the next election the number of intelligent voters who show up to vote will out number the...the...the not so intelligent voters. And please don't go on some wild rant on me about me mentioning voting democrat is non-intelligent. I didn't indicate that. But I do feel a lot of uninformed people showed up just to vote for Obama for no other reason than because.....(I'll let you all fill in the blank here).

Good to see you post something Andrew, I always appreciate your input on the political discussions.

Completely agree with you there. I almost voted for Clinton, ended up voting for Perot instead. WISH I had not. BUT Clinton was better than Bush 1, at least at the time I thought so.

Biggest GRIPE about Bush 2 was appeasing folks by passing MAPD, and not paying for the wars with IRAQ and Afghanistan. I don't really care about WMD's, fake war, whatever. Pretty MUCH everyone was behind the pres, and when he went to Congress for approvals (which he always got), we went to war. Simple.

I have a HUGE issue with how Obama handles these things.......He used the War Powers Act to respond to Libya, which is within his rights, but THEN there was no congressional vote to approve his actions.......AND with the sending of troops to Africa.....he sent a letter to congress outlining what HE was doing. That letter should have been sent before sending our troops. Just my thoughts on the matter.

On a positive. He is POTUS, and I do like the fact that he is still pursuing the enemy and killing them whenever we find them. I personally like KILLING them instead of capturing them. MUCH BETTER OUTCOME, and he keeps it out of Holders hands, because everyone knows Holder is an IDIOT.

Later,

I doubt much will change.. I've been without a computer for a couple of wks. There's a about 3 on here that have great knowledge in trivia. And I have talked to a couple that don't post and let them read some of the trivia/facts posted....I read things I had no clue about concerning the history of the sport of basketball and football in the state of Ky.

And soon basketball season will start...I doubt much will change.

I know who I am, how long I've been here, what teams I root for, who busted my balls, whose balls I busted, whose busted whose balls and have for yrs, whose been sick, who got divorced, whose lost loved ones, who lost their jobs, who moved...I doubt much will change..
And soon basketball season will start...I doubt much will change.


That being said. I doubt much will change. Facts are just that and diehard fans are just that and idiots are just plain stupid.

And soon basketball season will start...I doubt much will change.


And soon basketball season will start...I doubt much will change.


But I have no tolerance for folks being just plain mean. That needs to change. Ribbing is ribbing. I have fun with it and see who does on here.Namecalling in a malcious way( I call everyone boneheads every now and then but it fun) should not be acceptable. Calling a man a liar, I don't get it. That needs to change. We don't need an audience if we have a problem with someone. A PM keeps it between the 2 or 3. They can go at it without needing or wanting a bunch of Attaboys...

And soon basketball season will start...I doubt much will change.

Now I'm off to the deer blind to see if I can hit the broad side of a barn with this bow...Robin Hood I aint...I doubt that will change.

I voted yes, but do it on a seperate board, on a seperate forum, in a seperate country.

I would really rather come here and read and write about fishing and boats.
I do like the off topics area, and like it being a blend of everything. If that included politics sometimes, well okay.

Where do we draw the line? A board, for computers and software, one for weather, one for sports, one for plumbing, one for taxes, one for the economy, one for foreign affairs..... I think most of fishin.com ought to be boats and fishing and rods, and reels and trolling motors. So do each of those get a seperate board too? A board for Bass, one for Bluegills, one for cats, one for Stripers, one for Crappie, and a seperate board for catching NOTHING.

Really, make it toooooo simple:
Fishing only.
Gear talk only.
Boat talk only.
Buy and sell boat or fishing stuff only.
And OFF-TOPICS.....anything else you want to talkabout.

And to be even less committed and consing, I agree everyone of us can elect to not see whatever we decide to NOT click on.

I know I know.....I ought to do that more often myself.....but I'M ADDICTED.
