Whales, Spinners & Mucho Dollars City

More "depends on what the definition of is, is" bullshit. Do you parse words into something other than their clearly intended meaning for a living or just for fun and defending your pals?

You can say what you want about increasing membership, but the silent majority here would choose an alternative with less drama if given a viable alternative. I don't personally give a damn enough to stomp my feet and swear off this place, but I would gladly pursue a better policed alternative. Actually, I would not even care if you just wanted to do away with any rules, guidelines, etc.. Admit that it is a free for all for some with rules applying if you want them to and I would not object at all. The annoying part is those spewing that line of crap about how some people here are just such geniuses that they walk a fine line. That is bullshit. This isn't a court of law. Those gray areas you cling to exist only because you let them. The idiots in question are bullshit artists, not geniuses. Chess players? Oh, please. They fancy themselves chess champions because they play either even more ill-equipped people or an opponent who was forced to play without a queen because it is in your pocket.

Reading the drama was fun for a while and then it wasn't. Poking the offending morons in the eye was fun for a while and it, too, got boring. So now I don't venture in as often and will eventually join the inevitable migration elsewhere.

Never had a point or been banned here before, but I suspect that is changing soon! Have a great day all... Originally Posted by tracer

Wow. I will simplify further. I was not referring to ivan.

I suspect the moral equivalence of your second staement makes sense when viewed through the filter of partiality. Your bias will apparently not let you see the ignorance of that position.

I was certain that my statements about the silent majority were stated as my opinion. So certain, that I didn't bother to re-read it because I knew that was what I meant. I was rushing to put down my thoughts before leaving my computer and erred in my haste. You are correct that it appeared I was attempting to speak 'for them' rather than simply imply its existence. That was not my intention.

I suggest your closing statement lacks evidence as well...ijs Originally Posted by tracer

My point of the second statement was to ask you if your "wrong" is really all that much better than their "wrong" because they are asses..... My contention is you are both wrong. Whether one is "more" in the wrong or not makes no difference. It makes you the same "type" of person you deplore when you do just as they do.

I understand what you meant.... But seeing as how my words were held to their letter, I figured I would offer up the same..... My statement was a bit tounge-in-cheek as well...... My intention was to add a little bit of smart-assidness.... My sarcasim font failed me there..... My apologies....

Not sure if you're saying I'm not the smartest tool in the shed, or I'm not the dullest..... Seems you're on the latter side of that..... Can't say I can argue with that at times...... I may not be so smarts..... But at least I'm ugly.......

JaD

Who the hell knows, how are we suppose to know. He was just being ugly! I read it, and so did MANY. So my question is, are we all wrong?

What wrong on my part? I admit to no wrong. Let's say someone sees a fat woman get slapped on the street and the man says he did it just because he detests fat people. That witness goes over and slaps the moron in question. It is true that the witness committed a violent act as well, but you would not want me on a jury if you were the prosecutor trying the witness for assault.

You know something? I've been upset about this and all the other negative bulltwinkie on ECCIE lately, but in the bigger picture, this thread and others like it are raindrops (or teardrops) that will soon evaporate and be forgotten.

My beloved Sweet Pea is dying, and I just got word a couple of hours ago that my number one gentleman friend, a great man who provided me attention, affection, loyalty, friendship, and to be honest, a third of my income for the last 4 years, someone I'd traveled from one end of the country to another with, who introduced me to his goddamn family at Christmas 3 years ago despite my profession, passed away in his sleep overnight, a widower only 63 years old and less than 6 months away from retirement and being able to do whatever he wanted, and now all his plans are dead with him. I'll be going to his funeral Friday morning, and most likely burying Sweet Pea that afternoon or the next. Btw, he was an ECCIE member, MontBgent, not vocal, just someone who appreciated the board for what it originally used to be, a place to find companionship, information, and have a friendly discussion,

I'm hitting the Jameson about as hard as I ever have right now. Screw ALL of this. None of these petty arguments over who meant what when they typed this or that mean diddly. Life is too short to spend it fussing with people who aren't going to change their minds anyway, who I'll most likely never meet because we are incompatible for whatever reason, and whose opinions don't pay my bills or at least make me laugh or smile.

Go back to your squabbling. OR, you could go write or call or hug someone and tell them how much you appreciate them and would miss them if they just suddenly disappeared. Way more important than the definition of whales, zebras, donkeys, hooktards, fucktards, haters, bigots, NBA, CIA, FUBAR. Get OFF the damn keyboards and your soapboxes.

Go back to your squabbling, now. Originally Posted by Fancyinheels

WoW just managed to catch up with this thread. If the "whales" term didn't go well with some of you I genuinely apologize and I mean it. English is not my first lingo and I tend to use my own language slang translated into English, and you can see the result Don't ask me what "whales" is used for in my own country we will never end this thread and it will only get better :-)

But this is some funny shit as in some of you read so much into it.
So back to the topic, what does the future looks like? And no more drama please :-)

Or maybe now is a good time to close this one entertaining topic :-)

You seem to articulate your thoughts pretty well for someone who doesn't speak English all that well

The providers influx for the past year has been very interesting in the looks, service and price department. Without too much drama, what does the future looks like for Houston? Originally Posted by ivan

True that mate, but I don't have control over them answers and all the excitement
But to your point, I think we totally missed the value of this thread so closing it is probably the most natural step. But man it was fun to see the workout on some members
