Old Dude take care and hopefully that health issue is just a minor glitch!

This guy sums it up nicely. I can't tell you how many people I've written off or stopped helping who've wasted my time and energy. Not anymore.

To those people I say.........


"You do your thing I'll do mine" It's a great way to live!

Artist/Band: Montgomery Gentry
Lyrics for Song: You Do Your Thing


Put me on a mountain, way back in the backwoods
Put me on a lake with biggin on the line
Put me 'round a campfire cookin' something I just cleaned
You do your thing, I'll do mine

I ain't tradin' in my family's safety
Just to save a little gas
And I'll pray to God any place, any time
And you can bet I'll pick up the phone if Uncle Sam calls me up
You do your thing, I'll do mine

Hey, I'll worry about me
You just worry about you
And I'll believe what I believe
And you can believe what you believe too

I ain't gonna spare the rod
Cuz that ain't what my daddy did
And I sure know the difference between wrong and right
You know, to me it's all just common sense
A broken rule, a consequence
You do your thing, I'll do mine

Hey, I'll worry about me
You just worry about you
And I'll believe what I believe
And you can believe what you believe too

I'm gonna keep on working hard
Make my money the old-fashioned way
I don't wanna piece of someone else's pie
I don't wanna piece of nobody else's pie
If I don't get my fill on life I ain't gonna blame no one but me
You do your thing, I'll do mine

You ain't gonna be my judge
Cuz my judge will judge us all one day
You do your thing, I'll do mine

[Jana®]

Good song, Meck. I love country.

Maybe someday he'll grow up.

Marines normally don't get soft assignments in Iraq so I tend to cut him slack. I don't know if he's on his second or third time out here. Normally Marines are kind of nuts and have strong loves and hates. Most of the time it's not rational but it's something peculiar to themselves. I think it's amazing that Mock can say all manner of foul thing and be totally adulated but Freak other posters get castigated. I guess I haven't been around nice people all my life so some things I just take with a grain of salt. We have some solid church going Christians who do not realize how bad some of things are they say but because it's not popularly know they get overlooked because they can quote scripture and don't say anything of substance. I'm not pleading mercy for this man. I'm just saying...

If freak posts about 60,000 more times and ends up in a coma from eating bad peanut butter, he can be adulated, too. Until then, he's just a douchebag.

Just my opinion, of course.

I'll second your motion. I'll give freak a "pass go" due to his situation. I know he goes "overboard" at times, but considering....I'm ok with it.
Mock IS allowed to go off in his drunken rants without comment, aside from humorous replies about his inebriated state.
Slap and his comments are in the same league, but he doesn't have the mental stress which Freak endures on a daily basis.

Just my humble opinion. Hell I go into attack mode at times. Deserving to the recipient, but it's still an attack!
Stone me if you like, I really don't give one IOTA!

Double standards

I guess you're right. Who doesn't become a hate-flinging bigot when faced with stress?

You're the one who "judged" him to be a hate flinging bigot. Are you dense?

I was asking you WTF you were refering to.

[theAPAOps5]

To speak for Dom, he mentioned Freak would attack the Mormon faith a lot and he flooded Doms PM box with a bunch of Mormon hate mail. So I think that is what he means by hate flinging bigot.

Just search Mormon and in the advance search use freak6 to filter it. There is a lot of smack.

I especially don't get into discussing it with someone whose sole intent is to offend. On top of that, I get barraged with (unreturned) PMs, basically mocking my faith. Not cool. Not cool at all.

I guess I see a person's faith as undebatable. On top of that, in my book, it's off-limits unless advice is solicited.

End of story there... Harrassment like that is always grounds for bannings, if not lifetime bans IMO...

Dude, this thread is less than two pages long. I guess I assumed that since you posted in it, you also had read it. My short replies were based on not knowing which of the words ("hate," "flinging," and "bigot") you didn't understand.

There you are, my friend.

[DomCasual]

Wow. I hadn't seen the Brigham Young = Hitler thread he started.

Anyone who wants to defend him after reading that, have at it.

What I found difficult, was that no matter the topic -- he would ignore the content and launch into his routine and ignore any question or thought-out response --like everyone on the board was put on ignore -- Some Mormon must have taken his lunch money in the past -- in any case the weirdest level of hatred I have EVER seen in a poster.... and the only one I have ever put on ignore after many chances.

What I don't like about LABF is that I don't believe he really thinks for himself (just my opinion). He's good at cutting and pasting (literally, in some cases; figuratively, in others) - that's about it. I like people who take an issue, think it through, and make decisions based on what they believe. For an ordinary person, what they believe might put them on the right side of an issue in some cases, and the left side of an issue in others. Most people lean more one way than the other, and so they label themselves liberal or conservative. It's almost if LABF lives by a manual of what he's supposed to believe. He's the political version of a company man - the guy that totes the company line, whether or not it's fair (sort of Dwight Shrute-ish). To me, it's like listening to Rush Limbaugh. When I am flipping through the radio stations in my car, there is nothing (and I mean nothing!) that will get me to switch it faster than the sound of Rush Limbaugh's voice. I cannot stand the man. LABF is the southpaw version of Rush Limbaugh.

And since this post is already eternal, I'll add one more thing. I am almost convinced that there are guys like LABF that are low level employees of the Democratic National Party. They are paid to find ways to spew propaganda on messageboards on the Internet. I just see them popping up everywhere, and they are almost like robots. I got into an interesting discussion with one the other day on the Salt Lake Tribune site. It was bizarre. It was after an article about the trapped miners here. Some guy starts in about how the president has ruined the country. I replied that every problem in the world isn't caused by a bone-headed president; that there were problems before the bone-headed president. He immediately jumps on my for supporting the war (huh?). I said I didn't support the war, and he says something, if I remember correctly, about me being homophobic (again, huh?). It was like a robot that had been programmed to find a conservative, and attack based on conservative stereotypes. Truly bizarre.

Ha ha ha!

Well, how about that...

One long, whacky dissertation - all about little old moi.

I'm not sure whether I should feel flattered or creeped out that this guy spends so much time thinking and obsessing about me.

You aren't sure about much, unless you can consult your party guidebook. Sometimes it's hard being a robot.

Just tell me I'm wrong. Tell me why you are nothing more than a liberal version of Rush Limbaugh.

[DomCasual]

Predictable.

[DomCasual]

Okay, I am basically going to respond to myself here.

I actually like LABF, for the most part (I'm sure he'll sleep better tonight). I like that he's passionate (even though sometimes I wonder if he is an employee of the DNC ). I just don't know anyone who doesn't cross lines occasionally when it comes to politics - if they are being honest. I generally vote Republican - especially as I get older. But I can look at a guy like Obama and be pretty intrigued by him. What makes others label him as naive is what I find refreshing about him. I don't think he's a cliche, and I believe he's genuine in the things he professes to believe. And maybe we need someone willing to "reinvent the wheel" a little, at this point. I'm not sure I could vote for him, but I'm not sure I couldn't.

Actually, I doubt I could vote for him. I could vote for a Democrat, though. I never approach an election saying, "I don't care who the Republicans throw out there. It'll be better than the alternative."

And that's just my point. I don't want to read about the left or right pat answer to every issue. I am interested in real opinions. I am open-minded in the belief that neither side has all the right answers. Philosophically, I lean right; but as I have said before, I am just as turned off by the right-wing crazy as I am the left-wing crazy.

That said, I think LABF is a pretty decent guy. I should have never mentioned him in the same context as a guy like freak6, and I apologize for that.

So isnt this a part of the board that one can find some sanity? Lets leave politics at the door -- there is a whole sludge-full of that crap elsewhere...

Yeah, I agree. I just got thinking about the way I sounded with some posts about LABF, and I figured I should clarify. They sounded far more caustic than I intended.

Not that it probably matters to LABF. But it matters to me.
