I blame RP for the Tippa moniker that others have picked up on. ~ de gustibus et coloribus non disputandum, and so I definitely will keep referring to you as Tippa instead of Tippers... Also because Tippersporn invokes the image in my mind of a dirty old man providing tips at a shady Gogo bar to the girls...

And you snatch your rattling last breaths With deep-sea diver sounds And the flowers bloom like madness in the spring Sun streaking cold An old man wandering lonely Taking time the only way he knows Leg hurting bad As he bends to pick a dog-end He goes down to the bog and warms his feet Feeling alone The army's up the road Salvation a la mode and a cup of tea Aqualung, my friend Don't you start away uneasy You poor old sod You see, it's only me Me, oh-oh-oh Aqualung, my friend Don't you start away uneasy You poor old sod You see, it's only me, yeah Sitting on a park bench Eying little girls with bad intent Snot's running down his nose Greasy fingers smearing shabby clothes Hey, Aqualung Drying in the cold sun Watching as the frilly panties run Hey, Aqualung Feeling like a dead duck Spitting out pieces of his broken luck Hey, Aqualung Woah, Aqualung Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tippaporn Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 (edited) @Sunmaster @Red Phoenix Hey guys - time to knock off with all of the funny stuff. We just got a customer walk in the door. Go see what he wants, Sunmaster. All we've got on the shelf is Seth, religion, science and voodoo. We've sold out of all our signed 8 x 10 glossies of God. Don't scare him away with any of that meditation crap. Edited January 31 by Tippaporn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Others would have simply said "It's all BS and you are all delusional." The argument of "the Christian God" perceived as something negative is something we can work with. If we take the concept of the Christian God being a constant, what changes is how people perceive this concept. Some perceive it as uplifting, benevolent and loving. Others, like you, perceive it as negative, oppressive and cruel. The question now is, how did you come to this conclusion?

I can see you've never done any fishin' before in your life. Ya gotta use the right bait. You're trying to use boilies for bait to catch a big ol' fat carp in the wintertime. That ain't ever gonna work. Ya see, most customers aren't comin' here to buy any high falutin' ideas. They only want to see the hard evidence that satisfies 'em where it counts so that's what you give 'em. And once they see that hard evidence they can't resist their primal urges and you've got 'em sucked in big time. Making it a limited time offer helps, too. You've gotta pressure 'em to get 'em to feel that if they don't buy now then they're missin' out one a once in a lifetime deal. Take the advice of a pro and try that on the next customer. You'll be amazed at how quickly you'll be in the money. They'll be wantin' to buy your watercolours next! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slaves, submit yourselves to your masters with all respect, not only to the good and gentle but also to the cruel. (1 Peter 2:18) If two men are fighting and the wife of one of them comes to rescue her husband from his assailant, and she reaches out and seizes him by his private parts, you shall cut off her hand. Show her no pity. (Deuteronomy 25:11–12) You shall acknowledge no God but me. . . . You are destroyed, Israel. . . . The people of Samaria must bear their guilt, because they have rebelled against their God. They will fall by the sword; their little ones will be dashed to the ground, their pregnant women ripped open. (Hosea 13:4, 9, 16) Thor would never have said any of this.

That Fry video is a rerun here. Fry is another of 8+ billion people on earth. Since no one has been given a Rules Of The Game book when born then we're all on equal footing. We each come into this world and each of us is left to their own to figure it all out for themselves. Read some of my posts here and you'll find I make more and better points than Fry. At least I've come to that conclusion. @Sunmaster and @Red Phoenix agree. So I've amassed at least a couple of followers. My problem is that Fry has fame and I have none. So, since being famous makes one wiser (don't ask me how that works) then everyone harkens to every word issuing from the mouths of the famous. Infamous () people like me? Nah. Life is just not fair. I'd put in a complaint but I just don't know which department to file it with. I'm working on recruiting followers. If you want to follow me then you could help me become famous, too. Then everyone who laughed at my earlier posts will change their tune and remark on how wise they were just to kiss my butt. I have a special deal going where the first 100 followers get a free, lifetime subscription to my deepest, most profound thoughts which are available to subscription members only. That's a $50/month savings. Over a lifetime think what you could do with all of that saved money! In a short 10 years it'd pay for a free, one-week holiday to Bali! Norse Gods, Christian Gods, Greek Gods. If you don't like any of those then there are always Egyptian Gods, Mesopotamian Gods, Aztec Gods, Amazonian Gods, Hindu Gods . . . keep searching and sooner or later you're bound to find a God that's just right for you. Like they say, there's one for everyone! My sincere apologies to you, Purdey, as my off brand sense of warped humourous parody conveys more truth than you might imagine. Gotta know what to look for, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
