    Trigger happy about declaring victory - sounds familiar.

    No. I had a carefully thought out post typed out similar to those Rokkit has been doing, but in the end decided not to click submit for reasons stated earlier.

    Tard-bait? I don't find the word offensive AT ALL. I do however find those that perform the act that tard-baiting describes as offensive.

    r****d? As an insult, I find it as offensive as calling someone an "idiot" or "gay" - common insults people throw around in today's vernacular, and I'm pretty sure I've seen those words used on this board before. To describe really disabled people? I use it all the time. In fact the words my parents used to first tell me of my sister's condition was "mentally r****ded".


    I actually agree with this part, I must've missed this as this thread has gone on (and on), and if that's what he said then obviously that's just a stupid thing to say (is stupid an acceptable term by your standards? lol). But this is not what I was referring to. I created the poll in reference to your initial mock outrage over the word tard-bait and Sam telling basso to spend more time with his kid, while being fine with using disabled kids to play the (false) victim card.

    You should really work on your posting skills. It is easy to "quote" someone. At the very least, you could have put it in itallics. And while I'm not happy with some of what Sam's posted in this thread, the quote you "used" is clearly sarcasm. Palin is using her child with Down's syndrome for political gain. basso has glommed onto her because they share the experience of having a baby with Down's syndrome, something that has driven countless threads started by him in support of Palin, at least in my opinion. It's the only justification I can give for basso's admiration of someone who was a mediocre governor of a state with a population less than Austin's, has difficulty stringing 3 sentences together that make any sense, and a disaster as a VP candidate during McCain's run for president.

    Go on Urban Dictionary and type in those terms. After reading those entries you will have a true understanding of the intolerance some folks have for people with mental disabilities. If you'd be fine with someone using those words when referring to your sister then that's on you.

    Seriously, may god bless your sister and your family.

    Seconded. And, to be fair to myself and deckard, it's clearly embarrasing (for you) that both he and I had no qualms in thinking you would post such a silly assertion in a serious manner.


    As for basso, I don't give a ****, because I don't read his posts. Only r****ds do that.

    This is money....

    It's sarcasm when Sam says it but something totally different when I said it. Thanks for reinforcing my theory on the herd mentality around here.

    That typo couldn't have turned out better...

    That's a weak crawfish right there folks. He coulda took that like a man or gave a better excuse but that's all he had. LOL One more prime example of the herd protecting the herd.

    Sam, Rhad is astounded that a man with as many rep points as you would post such a silly assertion in a serious manner. I did it for you Rhad, I could tell you don't have the stomach for it.

    If MojoMan, Granville, Trader_Jorge, Jorge_Magnanimo from TexAgs.com all sat down together at a table for dinner - how many place settings would one need?

    It's called intent. Based on reading your posts, and having missed the post of Sam's that you eventually quoted, all I had to go by was intent. No cows or sheep involved, Granville.

    It's called inference. Neat concept.


    Awwwwww, you poor baby. Why don't you sign up for a few more accounts so you can have a "herd" too?

    Honestly, I don't care. I've posted more in this basso thread than I ever should have. Now I feel dirty.

    It's called getting busted....

    The herd probably wishes that you hadn't posted in this thread too.

    Why do I need a herd when I have you and Deck backing me up??? LOL. Please keep trying to backtrack it is truly hysterical

    So you based your opinion of the contents of my posts which were primarily about me denouncing posts made by Sam... Yet, you never read the main post that I was denouncing Sam for.

    Ok....Mr internet intent expert.

    Looks like the herd is thundering over you my friends.

    I see several mudholes developing where the hoofprints are.

    While you are compiling your list of posters that you are paranoid about add deck and rhad to that list. I think those rascals went rogue on you in a desperate attempt to steal all your lucky charms (rep points).

    What is the source of your obsession with Trader Jorge?

    The continuing suggestion by you and others here that there can only be one conservative leaning poster on the whole internet that might post on the Clutchfans message board, so we must all be him (Trader Jorge), is truly silly. I am not going to try to tell you to stop doing it, because I know you will not listen. But whatever humor this little shtick might have once carried with it, it is long gone now. Just a heads up in case you really did not know this.

    Dude, your friends drank 10 gallons of water, a case of Flomax and whizzed all of your self proclaimed "I'm good at the internet" reputation

    I'd hate to see what happened if you thought you sucked at this.

    I see you working . with this post though. Those two just got slapped hard and you want them to stay engaged with your king of the net conquest.

    Big props for trying to rally your troops.

    Proof that G is not TJ... TJ would never allow himself to be exposed for not knowing the difference between to and too or wrap and rap.

    You could be right. I can't recall ever seeing Trader_J misspell a word. Other than that, however, MojoMan frequently reads "word perfect" as the guy. Bizarro Trader_J, if you will.

    All I left you with was attacking typos, huh?
