The thing is... you people are so stupid, and then you're condescending, and condescending stupidity is my #1 pet peeve, so I go balls deep every time.
So do I, you've done nothing but instigate crap since you arrived in here.
See you in a week.

I don't really understand this concept violently disagreeing with everything that somebody says. If you're not prepared to concede a few points in a debate why have one?

The problem is, there have been some comments made and said on here that goes beyond a petty back in forth.

You should be able to debate in a respectful and mature way. I will not sit up here and insist I am perfect which I never have and have always said I am a opinionated person. However, I don't go around disrespecting or personally attacking people here but this oddly seems to be acceptable behavior here but when a out group member makes a non popular opinion and gets bashed that is viewed as acceptable.

By all means, feel free to keep reinforcing people and their beliefs. I think I'll do the opposite, and who knows, maybe questioning people (and, in turn, causing them to question themselves) will end up being more helpful in the long run.
As am I, and proud of it! No offence meant, man.

Also, you are one of the nicest members here so I personally think you should not feel that way at all.
Not that it will matter, but I'd like you to say clearly who it is I have been disrespectful to? I can think of maybe three, four people, yourself excluded, and almost always I have realised I have stepped over the line and apologised. It's called being human.

And don't call me a bully or I'll steal your lunch money! (The people in my life who would laugh so hard to hear me so described!)

I came in here defending your point so I dont get this post.

He called me an idiot and ranted with disrespectful conjectures but I guess that is okay since it's me. I dont like people who like to act holier than tho when they do some questionable things themselves.
As I did in the Boston bomber thread, but that was twisted around to suit how you prefer to see me.

But he is the one that always wants to start **** with me for some odd reason

In my thread calling me out my name but wanted to lecture me on how to have a mature discussion but he obviously cant have one himself.
Hmm. No, wrong again I'm afraid. The problem is that you can't seem to take any sort of disagreeing opinion or discourse at all. Half your posts are to people who agree with you where you, um, agree with them, and the other half is ranting at people and calling them racists, bullies or whatever word suits your mood at the time. I can be sensitive sure, but I rarely if ever pick fights.

Ha ha! I already had a knockdown row with that guy so to call him a cheerleader is hilarious! Also, he's now banned.

That reflects a low level of maturity.
Seriously, what does this mean? I honestly don't know what you're saying here...

I never ever respond to any of his posts unless HE responds to me and these last two arguments was because he started it.

He wants to argue with me and he purposely makes condescending disrespectful remarks which is a form of attacking and bullying.


There isno excuse for it especially when I have never once called him out his name.






The reason why I said that was because you said "How do you know I am a nice person" and I took that as you trying to patronize me and I didnt understand your reason for saying that when I have never got into an argument with me and don't have a problem with you.
None of that makes sense, also see previous posts. Not to mention, how can you not respond to my posts unless I respond to you? If it's not aimed at you why would you respond?

Its a coward move and I don't care what you think of me.

I personally think most of you are cowards, sheep, disrespectful and don't have a mind of your own.
And you got me warned for namecalling!

This is, of course, a fair point.

As is this.

Oh, and thanks SF for bringing bad vibes into a thread I specifically asked people not to do that. Thread totally derailed, going over .... too soon?


Seriously, if you have something else to say to me just PM, don't be wasting the time of people who really couldn't give a rat's ass what you think about me and don't want to be reading long rambling diatribes from either of us.

(End long rambling diatribe. We now return you to your regularly scheduled thread...)

I'm so torn. Soulflower is so clearly wrong... but I have a real chance to kick TH in the shins by pretending to agree with her.

Everyone just needs to hang in Plug more.

I can butt heads with someone here on the board and then be rocking with them over a great tune over in Plug. Happened with SF very recently. Don't always agree with her here but I love her over on Plug. She always plays great stuff.

As long as everyone keeps the MB board and Plug separate it's all good!

I have a problem I'd like to vent a bit. I need to see a doctor about my elbow, which I've mentioned here, but there is one other thing that scares the living **** out of me. I have two lesions on my leg that look like beginning stages of cancer. I haven't told anybody about it. They've been there for a couple months, and they're getting worse. I've tried peroxide on them and they bubble up a bit, but it doesn't seem to help. My Dad went through chemo for two kinds of cancer (skin and colon) and is still kicking, but that's what frightens me. I watched as my ex-GF went through chemo treatments, and it's absolutely draining. Emotionally, physically, and psychologically. Is it cancer? Is it just some strange rash? I need to sign up for insurance, and make an appointment, and I'm legitimately fearing for my life everyday, and I try not to think about it. It makes me angry, sad, scared, weak, and confused. I want to be at peace again.

This week. I can't very well do anything about it right now, and it's not going to kill me in the time it takes to get insurance tomorrow, then set an appointment. I appreciate the concern Chula.

I've been looking at images of skin cancer, and it's pretty much a match for what's on my leg. When I first Googled it, my heart sank, but of course I am NOT qualified to diagnose anything on anyone, especially myself.

Oh man, let us know! If I was a praying man I'd be praying for ya, though I'm sure it's nothing. I'll ask Karen to intercede; she's big in with Jesus.

I had/have something on my back which scared the **** out of me and I left it for literally it must have been a year before finally gathering the courage to go to the doc. Turned out it was nothing. Not cancerous at all. But Jesus you **** yourself; the relief though when you're given the all clear. Worth it, and anyway if it is anything it can only be treated if they know about it.

Be thinking of ya man! Let us know as soon as you do (once you've let your family know, of course).
