Well, with the close of voting for the top primitives of 2011, time to start this.

Go to it, folks; I'm sure 2012 is going to give us a lot of great stand-alone quotes!

9. Automatic Rs Guaranteed by Longterm Membership

Strikes me as positively Rotarian! (Or perhaps another R-word with four syllables.)
http://www.democraticunderground.com/100258259

I think this primitive is referring to the word "Re-tar-ded." That's three syllables, genius. THREE!

Ironically in a thread about how Bush took all these vacations, and Obama...well..really hasn't taken any.  :banghead: Which, is also a fairly re-tar-ded thought to even lean towards agreeing with.

2. I pursue my passion regardless

If food manufacturing is your passion, just do it, regardless of whether there is a job for you. That's what I did.

I took temp jobs to survive until I finally got a job in my field.

Looking back though, I wish I could have just lived with my parents until I found the best job. It would have been better if someone could have just paid for my room and board for however many years it took until I found the perfect job. That's what alot of people do, and I am jealous of them, but I never had anyone to take care of me, so I had to get a survival job and creep my way up the career ladder very slowly. Having nobody to support me in any way had devastating effects, but whatever.

16. I am so old that politically correct used to mean polite.

There are so many things...

1. You abuse a little girl in front of me you are going to get a fist sandwich.

2. GS are much better than BS because they don't care if you are atheist or agnostic.

3. I miss my godchild Chloe. Her mother and she disappeared. Manly because her mother felt hostility from my SO. Which is true. I don't know where they are because Mommy can't hold a job or find a place to stay. I still love them.

4. I love little girls. Anything you give them they love.  Unlike boys.

Thank heaven for little girls.

No one forsaw the intense propaganda campaign by the energy industry coming.

Unfortunately, most of the morons that buy that garbage can't wrap their heads around the concept "Heat = Energy". Therefore, when it snows, they believe that it somehow means the Earth isn't 'warmer'.

So there's: GW (global warming), CC (climate change), AGW (anthropogenic global warming), ACC (anthropogenic climate change), and AGCC (anthropogenic global climate change). - As we went through the hoops of finding a term that would reflect the phenomenon more accurately for the morons.

Hey moron, there is a perfectly good term that doesn't require an agenda to use it.  We call it weather. It changes from season to season and from year to year. Deal with it.

Maybe there's a force greater than libs, greater than mankind, that is by far the largest influence on the Earth's weather and climate. Could this force be called the sun ? Meteorologists refer to this force as insolation. Incoming Solar Radiation. In fact, for a very long time meteorologists have referred to this force as the sole cause for all weather. Could it be that simple ? Also, we have another force that may be more powerful than libs. Gravity. This force keeps the earth in a repetitive, and predictable orbit around the sun. Could this phenomena account for changing climate ?
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

8. You're right, Maher does cross over

into political commentary and he can and has been held accountable when he does. But the issue is: When does he cross over?

Calling Palin the c word was so over the top for Maher as the pro feminist person we know him to be (he has defended women on countless occassions) that there is little doubt the c comment, (which we all know was directed at the fact that Palin is a dumb conservative rather than her being a woman) was attempt at a comedic jab.

TheMastersNemesis
 
For Those Know Know Who My Moniker Is And The Parallels That Line Up With A Popular Sci Fi Show

The longest running science fiction television show in history addressed the 1% - 99% issue on many episodes that were done since 1963. The master's nemesis was "DR WHO" that was started November 23, 1963. The BBC has now been through 10 reincarnations of the Doctor since its birth.

The most telling episode that I can remember is one where "the Doctor" ends up on this city in the clouds where these very well off beings are living the life of luxury. They are in a dispute with miners on the home planet down below who are working in deadly conditions mining an ore that is necessary for the city in the clouds to survive. In his own unique way the time traveling Doctor (Tom Baker) and his compnion resolves the conflict where the leaders in the city are brutalizing the miners.

How truth is stranger than fiction. The gated communities, private country clubs, private beaches, private islands all have the same separating and unequal elements that the episode that I mention here does. The less fortunate are now not only being brutalized they are being demonized. They are the reason for all our problems according to the elite. The realityis that exploitation by the powerful, the connected, the rich and GOP are the real cause of the problem.

The only problem is that we do not have Dr Who to rescue us from these brutal conflicts. We only have ourselves.

I think there should be a rule that

no presidential candidate who has no credentials or experience in foreign affairs shall issue pronouncements criticizing a sitting President during a crisis or confrontation between the US and a foreign government. They would be free to say any ridiculous and ignorant thing they want to say after the crisis has passed.

C.S. Lewis

A community may possess all the necessary moral qualifications, in so high a degree, as to be capable of self-government under the most adverse circumstances; while, on the other hand, another may be so sunk in ignorance and vice, as to be incapable of forming a conception of liberty, or of living, even when most favored by circumstances, under any other than an absolute and despotic government.

23. No, it actually works the opposite

The more "skilled" a person is, the better they're doing individually, which greatly reduces the drive to form a union.

The less skilled, the more pressure to form a union because the employees are more easily replaced, and thus more abused by management.

That's why Wal-Mart has to work very hard to disrupt unionizing, while IBM doesn't....for now.

That truth to power phrase the libs love rubs me the wrong way. Something about it is just off base. We should have a whole thread, and thoroughly discuss it to where I can get my finger on what about it is wrong.

I can picture you submitting the draft to an editor and then sitting down to discuss it afterwards.
 
Editor - 'This is great stuff, kid. But it needs more holocaust.'

You - 'Are you sure?'

Editor - 'Oh yeah. If there's one thing I've learned in this business, it's that the holocaust is funny. People love it. You should put it right in the title.'
 
You - 'Huh. I never thought about it that way.'

Editor - 'Trust me, kid. I know what I'm doing here. How about we talk it over some more over at Jamba Juice. I'm buying.'
 
You - 'You mean Jamba Jews?'

78. I have a problem with it:







Last edited Tue May 22, 2012, 11:23 PM USA/ET - Edit history (1)

I said it every *******ed day I was in school.

And then, in 6th grade, while the girls were in "health class",

(learning about menstruation, 'cause their parents were too disgusted with biology to explain it themselves...)
 
We boys were taken to the Gym and indoctrinated into the "domino theory"

(Chinese and Russian commies killing and raping kangaroos after sodomizing the entirety of southeast asia)...
 
AND THEN:

A mere 6 years later (!!!) I volunteered to go to Viet Nam.

I boarded the plane like a medicated cow, comforted in the idea that I was going to live up to the Pledge.
 

*******************


"Blood. A necklace on me all my life."

(Michael Ondaatje, Memoirs of Billy the Kid.)


***************

**** the Pledge. Spill your blood where you will.

But don't do it on MY account.

And don't do it over some bullshit pledge to a flag that means exactly dick these days.
 
Maybe that's all it ever meant.


YMMV

I never thought I could be so mad at a single post. Really, what in the world is the POINT of living here if our flag means "dick?" If you hate our Soldiers? If you hate our whole country?

View profile
we both have low post counts. The way things work around here, agreeing with you will label us both as freeper trolls. We are not allowed to post against the "tide" of a thread until we hit somewhere around 1000 posts....

That said... yes, I'd appreciate no laws telling me:

- to wear a helmet
- to wear a seat belt
- what I can or cannot smoke
- what I can or cannot drink (or how much)
- what I can or cannot eat
- that I cannot run with pencils
- or, any other dumb ass law that is designed to protect me from myself....
