Ja but the problem is that you don't agree with Chula and are willing to discuss the nuances of a situation without just globbing onto the black and white depiction from the media.

Just because I disagree with you. See how that works?

Russian judge gives it an 8.5 out of 10.

Getting upset and calling me predictable/pretentious/a big meanie is just as predictable as me pointing out when you say something stupid. And it's not because I disagree with you on this subject, it's the approach you're taking towards DWV for trying to have a grownup conversation instead of this youtube comment section ****storm.

Is it at this point I should insult you and imply it's your ****ing fault? Because that's precisely what you did to me.

People floating along in a lifeboat should unify. Not punch each other in the face until some start falling out.

Source please.

It was my fault. I made that decision. I learned a lot from it, and I'm thankful to have had it. It made me financially responsible, motivated, and gave me an amazing work ethic. I didn't ever complain or make excuses, I got through it putting in the work. So sure you can insult me, I'm not easily offended.

Tsk tsk tsk. You are welcome to come up with legitimate criticism at some point before I die of old age. Until then, pretend Obama had your best interests at heart eight years ago.

As for me, Trump could die tomorrow and I'd laugh. You should learn to recognize, however, that his failures are partly a consequence of underlying issues your own party did not bother to address due to laziness, stupidity and numerous other factors. And now we have to live with him.

It is though, because opinions change over time and with experience.. and you can call bull**** on me if you want, but I used to think very similarly to you and argue with people my age in the exact same ways you're arguing with me now. The only difference is you are more educated on the topics than I was at the time, and the world was in a different place.

Are you even following the grownup **** I'm posting about. This isn't the ****ing media. (again, your snobby pretension rears it's head).

List my stupid statements. Please. You came out and called me stupid. Back it up. Without pretension. Bring it on.

It makes me sad when you start a conversation with me and then ignore my reply to insult Frown.

Dude, happy for you. Believe it or not, you got lucky. Tons of people have amazing work ethics and bust their butts, and still don't get through. Don't anoint yourself.

But you hurled the first rock, even though you knew my family's circumstances. That sting hasn't quite worn off yet.
