Enough with the DC socks
no longer close to funny
Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

I second the motion.
I only came to kick some ass...

Re: Enough with the DC socks
I’ve banned most of them.
I’m gonna let NiceDC slide for now as I think if this poster at least has NiceDC, he will still feel included.

Re: Enough with the DC socks
I think A.E. Housman said it best long ago:
“'Terence, this is stupid stuff:
You eat your victuals fast enough;
There can't be much amiss, 'tis clear,
To see the rate you drink your beer.
But oh, good Lord, the verse you make,
It gives a chap the belly-ache.
The cow, the old cow, she is dead;
It sleeps well, the horned head:
We poor lads, 'tis our turn now
To hear such tunes as killed the cow.
Pretty friendship 'tis to rhyme
Your friends to death before their time
Moping melancholy mad:
Come, pipe a tune to dance to, lad.'”

You would think someone would know how to spell the name of the person they quote. Right?HouseDivided wrote: ↑Wed Jun 03, 2020 8:49 am I think A.E. Houseman said it best long ago:

Does DJT still suck? Asking for a friend, since you made a post free of any reference to that effect.

Re: Enough with the DC socks
Speaking of Donald Trump - Why do you feel the need to lie? I may be an idiot but I'm smart enough to know that "Auto correct" had nothing to do with your mistake.HouseDivided wrote: ↑Wed Jun 03, 2020 9:24 amThanks for the heads up.

As far as your "friend", tell your "friend" that yes - Trump still sucks.

Okay, dude. I was just joking around about DJT, but obviously your day is off to a bad start.Grandma wrote: ↑Wed Jun 03, 2020 9:31 amSpeaking of Donald Trump - Why do you feel the need to lie?

Autocorrect do what Autocorrect do. I don’t pretend to understand it’s ways.
I do hope your day gets better.

Re: Enough with the DC socks
Day got off to a great start but then I made my usual mistake and allowed our President to make me shake my head and roll my eyes - and feel the need to share what he tweeted that caused me to do as such.HouseDivided wrote: ↑Wed Jun 03, 2020 9:40 amOkay, dude.

As far as auto-correct, I'm not going to argue with you but I am confident you wouldn't swear on your child's life that it was auto-correct that was responsible for your mistake. I say that having a basic knowledge of how auto-correct works and that "Housman" is not a "word" that is auto-corrected.
But hey, maybe your auto-correct (on whatever device it was that you used to make the post) is different than everyone else's. I guess that's not impossible.

Re: Enough with the DC socks
OK. I'm not particularly worried about it. Since I don't have a time machine, I can't go back and tell you for sure. I know that, as a former English major, I am well-aware of how to spell Housman. It is also entirely possible that I was distracted while typing my post and added the extraneous "e". I assume it is auto-correct since I wouldn't normally make that mistake. However, it's not important enough to me to argue about. It's kind of like when Plano - a supposed former LEO - posted about "marshal" law the other day. He claimed it was an auto correct issue, and I didn't care enough to argue about it.Grandma wrote: ↑Wed Jun 03, 2020 9:54 amDay got off to a great start but then I made my usual mistake and allowed our President to make me shake my head and roll my eyes - and feel the need to share what he tweeted that caused me to do as such.HouseDivided wrote: ↑Wed Jun 03, 2020 9:40 amOkay, dude.

What IS important is that the POTUS is, even as we speak, tweeting something that is sure to upset or offend someone somewhere, and, as such, it MUST be pointed out and decried as racist, misogynistic, idiotic, bombastic, and downright unacceptable.
Carry on.

Where is the OG DC anyway? He’s been quiet for a couple days.
