How meta!

I wasn't trying to be insulting. I was merely echoing Illy's puzzlement as to why someone would intentionally sit down daily to watch something that bothers them so much. Why put yourself through that?

People go to horror movies and close their eyes for a good portion of the movie. But they go to the horror movie nonetheless. And they'll go the next one and close their eyes for a good portion of that also. So there's that.......as a psychologist YOU figure it out.

I guess I've always been one of those people who doesn't waste his time at horror movies because he doesn't want to see that. The people who go and close their eyes don't typically complain about the movie - they acknowledge that they get enjoyment out of the experience.

I can think of way more than a couple who fit that bill.

If I am one of them, I apologize.

But yeah, I feel the same way.

I assume to/for many I am one of those "couple of posters".
Well kids, when you congregate with hundreds of people from all different walks of life who have different personalities, opinions, ideas, morals, there is a good chance there will be some you don't care for. Thankfully no one is forced to be on this site - so in this case you have the freedom to remove yourself from those who cause you angst. Yet many still choose to be on here. That's on you, not those who bother you.

Dangit, look what you guys did! Now gutter’s Self conscious again!


And I love how my phone always capitalizes Self

Good word, Gutter.

Jared's got this!

80 pages - and a MAP!

Jared might the the smartest person in Trump's inner circle, and 1 of the few who he'd actually consider taking advice from.

The one thing it doesn't have is any input from the Palestinians, you know, the other half of the people necessary to make peace. So maybe it is more of wish list or a demand letter. But it would be the deal of the century for Isreal......if the other party agreed to it.

Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and Jordan, just to name three, are more receptive than the American Left.

So...

I would say you missed the point but then you couldn't have been so obvious in your deflection.

You, skipped an important one though, Putin is receptive.

Nah.

I got the point.

The Palestinians and their financial sponsors in Tehran STILL want Israel wiped off the map ("from the rive to the sea," as CNN puts it). And you think that they should be indulged to believe that's valid starting point for negotiations.

cUz POOtiN!

Palestine won't agree to it.

At least until the drone missiles start raining down!

Of course you don't engage the Palestinians when you want to stop a war with the Palestinians. You give them an ultimatum that you craft to be sure they will refuse and then you proceed to wipe them off the Earth for not taking the "deal of the century".

By the way, would that be the 11th or 12th "century"? Hard to keep the crusades straight.

So why did you leave Putin off your list? Bibi went straight to Moscow to talk to Putin about it. Of course if you are gonna indulge someone, why not start with The Putin? When it comes to getting re-elected Vlad is the godfather amiright? All the right wingers want his blessing (and the IRA ) these days. My how times have changed.....
