Then why do you partake in it 24/7?

You're one of those dicks bro.

Notice me ever being a dick to JFish? Or CnB? Or any number of other people who don't come here seeking out that type of interaction? No you dont. You and Trad are 2 of the biggest douchebags here, so you get what you dish out when it comes to me. Enjoy it. Or fucking leave like DC did. Makes no difference to me. I know a lot more about you and Trad than you do about me so we can play this game as long as you like.

You want people to be nicer around here then be the change you desire. You never seem to care about people being dicks unless it involves you.

Even you. We disagree plenty. But you're not going out of your way to be a dick 24/7. You dish it out some and you take it some. I think some/most of your ideas are nuts, but i think you're a kind hearted good dude.

Yeah, it’s wild that ideas about equality are received as nuts, but here we are.

But yeah I don’t like to fight.

I’m mostly just here for the lulz.

this is so hilarious

illy, if you don’t like my calling you out for being ignorant...stop being ignorant

i have no problem with people that think differently than i do about most things. what i’ve always taken issue with, with you in particular, is your willingness (even eagerness) to engage other posters when you’re woefully informed on the subject. when called out, you don’t own up to it and try to do better, you double down and wear your ignorance like some sort of badge of honor

i don’t think you really even have a desire to get along...you’d rather stir the pot

it’s fine (annoying as hell, but fine). you’re free to do you. just quit playing the victim game

Did you celebrate the end of the USC game? I didnt.

Obviously they aren't the same...dont get twisted up in pointing out the differences. But I dont celebrate failures just because they're over. Reflect? Learn? Move on? Yes. Celebrate? Not even a little bit

I certainly don't with you or Brocoach.

Nobody is playing victim. Just telling it how it is. I don't engage everyone the same. And your douchebag attitude towards me started long before i decided to start flinging shit in the politics threads. It's all good though. I've got plenty of time most days.

Whoa, the USC game, interesting analogy.

so yer sayin maybe Afghanistan would have gone better if we tried getting Tyon Grant-Foster more minutes?

It's a little different though. While the execution of it was a massive fuck up from overestimating the Afghan military, at least they're out. And that means that we'll go down from 1906 soldiers dying in the Obama administration, down to 63 during the Trump administration, down to 13 in the Biden administration, down to 0 in the next.

Glad we are out of there. I hope we do not ever find ourselves in a position where we are weighing an invasion and long term occupancy of another country but I don't have my hopes up. We seem to rarely learn our lesson.

last thing i’m gonna say on this...your posting pattern has changed little throughout your time on these boards

i’ve probably been too harsh at times, but i honestly think some introspection on your part would be good

there’s a reason so many posters (besides twocoach and i) have taken issue with you and your posting habits. if you don’t care, that’s fine...but at some point in time you ought to realize what the common denominator is

The common denominator is that you're a douchebag. How's that for introspection?

I can and do have civilized discussion with almost every poster here who engages me regularly other than you and brocoach.

Like i said, all good regardless. I enjoy this site. Especially the sports threads.
