For the record, I remember when the incident happened. batman didn't write in the thread, and offered anyone who wanted to could e-mail him and he'd send the details. I did. There was no reason why he would lie. He doesn't gain anything by lying about it. It doesn't really prove a point. Furthermore he'd have to have lied 4 years ago knowing that it could come in handy here. But basso and TJ have ignored truths with far more evidence presented to them in order to not have to abandon their beliefs even when facts came out that made those beliefs obsolete. They just would rather believe what wasn't true in order to hold on to their fear based beliefs. So I wouldn't expect them to believe this.
Seriously guys, that's not classy at all calling Batman a liar. I really don't care for politics so I have no problem with the mudslinging all of you guys do, but Batman is a real person who was very nice the only time I meet him. He has no track record of telling MacBeth type stories here.
"classy" and "batman" are concepts that do not belong in the same thought, much less the same sentence.
I don't quite understand what's not to believe.....celebrities, athletes, politicians, etc are all living breathing people who have families, have friends, have typical problems, and take a dump (maybe not on urinals) just like everyone else......so how is it so unlikely that Batman's story isn't indeed true recollection
basso, aside from being stone cold busted for plagiarism (which basically means you're a liar) in this very forum, you're also well known for bizarre non sequiturs assuring us that you have lots of sex with your wife. So, in short, this is a text book case of projection. p.s. Batman emailed me about this incident at the time it happened and I've probably still got the email at work.
i used to work for earl. great guy, but in a year i dont think he ever learned my name. it was just "hey, my man". especially now, but even 10 years ago the guy was living every day of his life in pain. if anyone ever gave their body to their team it was him. he used to rely on a cane quite a bit and i think now he is often in a wheelchair. people like t-mac should go hang out w/ earl for a bit and keep the long term health in mind. and dont worry about the naysayers - i believe you. its not like you have some macbethian tendency to spin these kinds of yarns. the story isnt even that far fetched. honestly, if bushs campaign had said the things about my family that they did i would hate them too (more than i already do!).
well, she may have been working under your "then-girlfriend's best friend from college" but she swears she's strictly dickly now... and hey, "the gay dudes love her big boobs and blonde hair." Spoiler
This thread, suggesting I am a liar for saying I spoke with Meghan McCain before she was even notorious or a celeb is even funnier now that one of my best friends has won two best comedy actor Emmy's (as well as donating 100K to my theatre) and I have made a rock opera in cooperation with a legit rock star by any standard. It is not any more exciting to know celebrities than it is to know anyone else and there is nothing to brag about in knowing them. They are just like everyone else only with weirder lives and oftentimes more money. Why basso would bring up a super old thread that did nothing more than make him look foolish only to post one more strange, stale joke over who is gay or not is a mystery but then everything about basso is a mystery.
No I'm not because I don't care about anybody's sexual preference. You, on the other hand, are obsessed with it. It's 2012. Tittering and punning about who's gay is about as funny as "your mama" jokes anymore.
i find the whole discussion rather bent. i don't understand why there is so much defensiveness by those on the left about their sexuality. Batman, pgabs, et al, keep insisting they're straight. could be, but why make such a big deal out of it? if Meghan has taught us anything, it's that there's nothing wrong with being strictly (or even occasionally) dickly.
I make a big deal out of being straight? Hardly. You just constantly insinuate I'm gay or that I lie when I talk about having a girlfriend. So many people on this site know me in real life it is r****ded to keep treating me like I was Tom Cruise or something. Over the 13 years I've been posting here BBS'ers have probably met at least 4 or 5 of my girlfriends and yet you insist on putting quotes around the word in every post to me on the subject. What is your damage exactly? I don't "protest too much," you accuse too much, and out of thin air. If I were gay I'd wear it with pride. Not just "some of my best friends" are gay; probably half of them are. It's your sophomoric obsession with homosexuality that even ever makes this an issue. And who ever suggested Meghan was gay or that she would hide it if she were such that you felt the need to resurrect a four year old thread to alert us all to the fact that she isn't? As I said before, though your party seems to believe otherwise, it is 2012. Though the politicians you support may feel it to be necessary, when it comes ot the general population closeting is no longer in vogue. You are seriously the weirdest dude on this site.
well, i certainly never question Meghan's sexuality- she felt the need to address it, and I merely reported it in the context that seemed most appropriate. you then took the opportunity to remind us all that you're "straight." curious timing to assert your hetero-normative status, no?
Actually you took the opportunity to resurrect a thread where you did nothing but call me a liar and suggest that I was a closet case. And then I make the mistake of posting in yet another basso thread. Apparently you are the one dick I can't seem to quit. Also there is nothing more "normative" about being hetero than being homo.
really, the entire board is obsessed with whether we can get behind derek fisher, and you're here insisting there are no dudes whose behinds you get? methinks thou dost protest too much.
You got me basso. I'm gayer than Charles Nelson Reilly. Happy? Methinks you make quite a big deal about your "wife" and your "r****ded child."
had to go there, didn't you. more of this finely tuned liberal sensitivity we've become accustomed to. please, be fruitful and multiply, IYKWIMAITTYD.
