  1. "Volunteer confessionals"? "What are you talking about"? you might ask,,, Well, (btw, "in radical times," people also tend to dress funny and possibly wear mismatched socks - sorry, never mind my attempt at profundity - but I digress...) Anyway, onward, "They became important in their mind and forgot how to be kind to people that disagreed with them. Interesting.." Indeed, considering the following practice of "be kind to people that disagreed with them:" I think the word "hypocrite" in the above "context" should be ALL CAPS. (On a side note, sounds like someone has pushed the Orange button!!)
  2. "The poster I was referring to also usually attaches other derogatory insults to the label" - That's your accusation of him and "just pointing out his mistake" (according to you.) But in the "context" below, this is what you said about his use of the term ("anti-vax"). So whose "lack of sincerity and intellect..." are you talking about?
  3. Then judge the context, not the term ("anti-vax") itself. If you can't differentiate that, then take English 101 before making any further argument.
  4. There are more from ("the same camp") where these came from. It's not hard to spot (though hard to listen to.) But if you can stomach the dreg, they usually volunteer their own confession after the 1st paragraph. Or sentence.
  5. (Re: mRNA.) "Such hyperbolic language!" ? Consider the last sentence...Irony, oh irony.
  6. Bingo! Just wondering who those WOUNDED "tens of millions of Americans" are...and what "damaging" consequences the other "tens of millions of Americans" might be expecting?
  7. "Chlorine dioxide is a chemical compound with the formula ClO2 that exists as yellowish-green gas above 11 °C, a reddish-brown liquid between 11 °C and −59 °C, and as bright orange crystals below −59 °C. It is usually handled as an aqueous solution. It is commonly used as a bleach." - Wikipedia. Need one say more?
  8. Phew, sorry I couldn't go on, had to stop at page 5. (It's a, ehr, job but someone's got to do it!)
  9. As long as covid is still with us, any update on covid postings is always a welcome reminder to us with sane mind and a desire to keep the human race alive and well... Unfortunately, it irks those with delusions on theirs, brought on by god know what, who are determined to be blinded to science and subsequently have adverse reaction to any mention of vaccines/mrna - like vampires to holy water (sorry for keeping going back to the same metaphor, blame it on Hammer Studios.) As mod has mentioned earlier, there's plenty of places for those folks to go get their chip of their shoulders. The problem is the insane ones usually think they are the smartest (one adverse effect of being deluded.) Let me be kind and turn in another metaphor, anyone can walk down a public road, however, it's not ok to dump your trash everywhere along the way (that is providing one still has the ability to distinguish what stinks and what doesn't.)
  10. For the sake of anyone's supposedly non-lacking "sincerity and intellect," "anti-vax" is not a derogatory term by any means, Such sentiment is rather in the "eye of the beholder." It might be divisive by its nature, but not demeaning or degrading. Other examples: "communists" (vs "socialists") or "republicans" (vs "democrats" for us Yanks) - and in this case, "anti-vaxxers" (vs "vaxxers," if there is such a thing.)
  11. Which planet are you from? or to put it more succintly, Dorothy, get out of those red slippers!
  12. Look up Adam Lanza of Sandy Hook shooting, perhaps the most controversial of shool mass shootings in America and see the paralels... Lanza's dad paid 20k usd monthly alimony to Mom to raise him. She purchased guns and got him gun licence while supposedly schooling him herself at home (homeschooling.) One morning he took out the gun, shot her multiple times before setting out for Sandy Hook. Lanza offed himself when cornered by the cops This is how the Paragon shooter would have ended up, even with parental supposedly close monitoring - or not (including providing him with means guns and ammo...) Luckily for the parents, he spared them before setting out for Paragon. And he reported himself to the cop in the aftermath. This difference shows that he was not as nutty as some folks tend to think. But the bottom line is: As long as these creatures are not sequestered from the public at large, at some point they will get out in society and wreak havoc. The parents/guardians intentionally or not provided them with the means for acquisition of those weapons. Just think of these individuals as wild animals raised by private citizens. Hopefully the laws would be apply accordingly. There are cases right now in the USA where the parents are tried in court (the Oxford shooting.)
  13. On the other hand, every time they ie the world's "peaceful countries" play /sing and dance along a music video from Michael Jackson, Taylor Swift or Madonna. Or rewatch for the umpteenth time Star Wars/Titanic (and crave for their endless sequels.) Do they ever take a pause and praise: "America is the land of such incredible talent/creativity. Thank you for sharing your best gifts for the rest of the world to enjoy"? - No, they DON'T. (But a mass shooting anywhere on earth, and yep - ) Here's a small sample of another kind of "cancer" that America has been "spreading" to the rest of the world - and the world just can't get enough of:
  14. That's because he's smart. He knows where to protest without undue repercussions. Know yourself and know what you're up against ("The Art of War" - Lao Tzu.) And brave enough to vote w/ his feet (and fortune) to go and set up shop elsewhere where there's more freedom to his liking (and less claws to his assets.) He's also patriot, still passionate about what's going on in the land he's left behind. Last but not least a man of conviction, the pink-haired lady would no doubt have ordered a feast and left a handsome tip afterwards (being on a senator's budget. ) Etc. A restaurant is a PRIVATE premise, owned and operated by private individual. (That's the reason why government owned eateries are never called "restaurant," but "canteen/cafeteria" instead, where self-service is the norm.) In the land of US of A (and also in UK, as mentioned by a brit poster earlier) there is usually a placard by the entrance to the restaurant or cash register saying "We reserve the right to refuse services to ANYONE." No reason is required, "Please leave" is enough by laws. And if customer refuses, they will be charged with trespassing. This reminds me of the Sarah Huckabee incident not long ago. "On June 22, 2018, a co-owner of The Red Hen restaurant in Lexington, Virginia, asked Sarah Huckabee Sanders, then the White House press secretary, to leave. The co-owner later cited Sanders' role in what they called the "inhumane and unethical" Trump administration in which Sanders had "publicly ..." - Wikipedia. (Mind you it all started with one or more of the servers refusing to serve her group.)
  15. semi-anxiously expecting 2nd 7162 mailing that might/should be arriving anytime now, I finally went back to tracking my 1st. and here it is. surprised that it took only 3 weeks to get from swampy (sorry the capital shift no longer works on my keyboard, same goes for double quotes) into the finals (moving within USPS network ie somewhere between the moon and nyc.) Fyi this was registered mail.
  16. Or rather something that she could never have given him during their 30 years together.... (dildo or strap-on don't count!) I remember in my youthful days as a young gay thing, I used to point out to my bff, aka best friend forever, that I was jealous at that couple who just walked past, he's adonis while she's a hag, claiming that in drag I would look better than her. In his infinite wisdom, bff replies, "but she has something that you don't, namely a vagyna!" - "However," bff adds, "you also have something that she doesn't, namely a dyck - so don't despair!" A whole new world opened up to me since... A few years back I "chaired" a thread to explain ladyboy attraction for this forum's readers/posters. Quite a lively and enlightening thread, with many participating in the "lecture." Been a while back and I can't find it anymore. Maybe @gecko123 or other members with better track keeping record could resurrect the thread for those in the "I just don't get it" league. Thanks,
  17. Attractiveness aside, at the barest essential the new wife can bugger at the drop of her boxer shorts, whereas the former one had to strap on a, er, strap-on.
  18. Check out who gave you this suggestion of "bean dehydrating" at the first place. See the kind of stuff he posted and you'll have a better understanding "why...."
  19. It's easy to see why, and not surprising to see it would actually happen again...It's a dastardly deed what you're doing to one of our most respected forum members. Get off before moderator sweeps you off.
  20. So if a hypocrite somehow agrees with you or sides with your opinion, then that makes you a hypocrite as well? But never mind that, how about you quoting a hypocrite, what that makes you?
  21. Beware when someone indulged wit (or bovine crap as in "the avoidance of unhappy consequences is adequate basis for interpreting a text...") as cover for hypocrisy. There's something insidious about it, though it doesn't quite work as a deflection tactic. It's like saying, hey, that guy just robbed a bank. Then someone responds, he drives a rather nice car.
