Oh man.
The bird-smacking stoned red-faced primitive has been relentless overnight.

41. Only because of having been burned / duped by assuming the good before.

34. Skinner has stated publicly he prefers to be called Skinner on DU
Not by his given name. Just an FYI.

42. Gee, the "Skinner/David" issue PLUS the "You people" comment. Hey, Lost, what is your radar telling you right about now? I'll bet it's sounding all kinds of alarms.
Of course it's sounding all sorts of alarms.
The bird-smacking stoned red-faced primitive is reputed to be of a vigorously violent temperament.
He loses it all the time, even an old "garage sale" sign posted to a telephone pole setting him off.

45. Not specifically, but I know what you mean. You know what really made me wonder about the original "Star Trek" series in the 1960s?
EVERY damn episode, the Enterprise would be struck by some kind of Enemy Weapon, and EVERY TIME, everyone on the Enterprise's flight deck would FALL OUT OF HIS OR HER CHAIR and onto the floor.
Hadn't they ever heard, that far in the future, of SEAT BELTS?

54. And yet so many DUers take him at face value, trusting lot that we tend to be.
And then the stupidest person on the whole entire internet pops in:

62. Welcome, Asher. It's great to see you here.
You know, I suspect the bird-smacking stoned red-faced primitive is actually performing a valuable public service, in trying to drive the cherub away.
One has to remember the cherub is still only a kid, ill-informed about the ways of the world.
One also has to remember that while Skins's island is inhabited mostly by the stupid or the uncouth, there are real predators, real deviates, real criminals, among them, putting the cherub at risk and peril.
I am really surprised the cherub's parents aren't monitoring his internet use, for his own safety.
