Same old, same old, same old.......

[Gramps]

Opinions, topics, and people.

Oh, faces change but there are a bunch of radical thinkers who spam the threads with the same old, same old, same old opinionated rhetoric as when I first signed onto this sit after the Fray toppled out of favor.

It doesn't seem to matter that we are saddled with Obama, who was the people's choice, for another four years. It appears we're just in for that long a period of detestable character assassination rather than getting on the team.

And I can see that PJ's will eventually succumb to the same fate as the Fray because of it.

On the brighter side I have met some really interesting folks hereon and feel like I have garnered some friends in the process and that doesn't necessarily imply all of them are rightwingers. I suppose, in all honesty, the lefties do outnumber the righties in that category. And that figures. We share similar views.

Anyway, I'll still hang around if for no other reason than to see what cockamamie idea pups up next. I don't post nearly as much as I once did -- too weary, fingers won't cooperate, mind either, and I'm going back to playing games which was originally one of the features that hooked in the beginning. But I do note of late that the more weird the topic is the more responses the thread originator gets and some of the more serious posters barely get replies.

Oh, well.

Gramps. We are here to discuss stuff. Sort of like the old guys who go to the local McDonalds (or the local Perkins like my father-in-law did when he was alive) and "chew the fat" with the other old guys.

I'll be hanging around for the foreseeable future because even if I fight with the other old guys here I basically like everyone for who they are and for how they are.

In my home town, there was a row of metal chairs alongside the hardware store at the main intersection of town. One of my HS teachers dubbed it the "spit 'n argue corner". The name stuck. PJ is kinda like that to me....without all the spittin'. There was rarely a real fight because we all knew each other in our everyday lives. I keep that in mind on PJ, but all you have to go by here is the actual words written at any given moment. I don't really have any preconception of what anyone here would be like at the spit 'n argue corner.

Lefties look more like a team here than the righties. There's more camaraderie. In my opinion, that's because we actually share the same views rather than just competing to be the most outrageous "tough guys" in every thread. We're damn sure a lot funnier. If anyone ever sees me taking this shit too seriously, call the white coats. I don't see us changing the world here.

I'm just here to debate, but you are right zig, it's the same old topics of hate coming from one side and defenses on the other, with a few funny or stupid ones from both sides.

And I have absolutely no bloody idea what I am doing here ..........I think I must have taken a wrong turning or something

How do you know I'm not sittin' here just spittin' like crazy, zigg?

Ptooie!

[Jen]

I'm with you,QueenT. In fact, I'm quite sure I took a wrong turn somewhere and ended up here.

You're our foreign exchange student. We tried to trade Jen, but GB declined.

 

[zzigzzag]

Yeah....I can picture it.

What was I exchanged for ? ooooh should I have asked that ?

Ptooie!

Now THAT'S funny, Jen.

I think the folks who do the most spitting around here are folks like Wookie-leaks, JackDallas, Alinvegas, Dino. They could all get together and have a spitting contest. I think they still do that sort of thing at country fairs down thar in the South.

 

[Mytzlplk]

that's merc's maxim, which is "Most but not all posts with the highest number of responses and activity are examples of a rightwinger getting their ass kicked right square in."

They've long relied on the stupid and indefensible as attention getters, because formulating, composing, and defending sensible stuff is "hard work", and lefties have more fun piling on and stomping them into the dirt than they do dittoing each other.

Ptooie!

I had no idea you were Asian,or something like that! Quite a shock,there!

Yep. Watermelon seeds and crickets, believe it or not. Out Jack's way, they throw dried cow dung, AKA bullshit. I suspect he's competitive.

I think we've finally found something that Jack can excel at. He's probably the Grand Champion, several years in a row. Maybe even decades worth of cow dung flinging trophies on his mantel.

I know this will shock you, MaryAnne, but that's not a picture of me. I guess I should remember to use cartoons. (and yes, I'm smiling at your sense of humor).

Well,shuckie darn and slop the chickens, you sure fooled me! Garfield while down on the farm!

When my twins were little they built a fort out in the woods. I asked them what in the world they could do out there that they can't do in the house. They said "spit". Well. I guess they needed that fort then.

Now THAT'S funny, Jen.
