poll: do you ever get bored by the primitives of Skins's island?

[kenth]

So, who do we have in the running so far this year. I know it's early, but I've got a case of "What have they done for me lately." So far, we've got CPeg laying one steaming pile of a poem, the Twix prim trying to be financially relevant to the world, bobbolink being her ever rabid self a few times. Who else? I've got a couple of points for the-not-so-straight-story, especially for his panhandling for skydiving request. Maybe tonysam for not only getting fired from her union teaching gig, but also having to represent herself after what must have been every lawyer unwilling to support her case.

Bobbolink always gets my attention first, simply because I know she's actually scamming money from taxpayers, and actually turns up her nose at anything less than a McMansion paid for by the gub'mint (hard working taxpayers). These con artists who actually work at stealing other's money are the worst.

There's another one whose name I can never remember, who I think only posts a little in the "poverty" forum, who is just blatant about it. She actually comes right out with her belief that she shouldn't have to work for anything but is entitled to the best. Who she thinks should produce that best on her behalf I can guess.

Oh, man, you got me.  There's so many of them.

You obviously don't mean the subway cat, the "undergroundpanther" primitive, because nobody forgets the subway cat--even though the subway cat fits your description.

Perhaps you're thinking of the squawking primitive, the "LadyHawk" primitive, who lives off the goodness of her dear mother's pocketbook?

Barring that, perhaps the natural primitive, the "Naturyl" primitive, but that's a guy.

I think I have to be in the mood to go DUmp diving. It's been pretty much the same stuff for the past 9 years at DU but, at the same time they seem to out do their stupidity on a regular basis.

Its not as bad as watching reruns of Gilligan's Island on TV - It's as bad as watching the same episode of Gilligan's Island on TV.

Hollyweird wants to do a Gilligans Island movie....

Decent and civilized people get tired of repetitious unrelenting Hate...

That's it.

Yes, it's often boring.  Primitives have the limitied though process of a child (sorry to put down children, but just using them as an example) and so often you get the same thing repeated over and over and over.  Because they each believe themselves to be the most intelligent person on the planet, they feel compelled to add in their worthless comments, often multiple times on the same topic.  One can, without fail, predict exactly what topic will rile them up and exactly what they'll say about it.  The entertaining part is reading to what level of stupidity they're willing to dig to be noticed.  But as far as the primtives go, and liberals in general, they offer little to nothing useful to society in a meaningful way.  If they were to suddenly vanish, after a couple of minutes good and descent people wouldn't give them not being here anymore a second thought.

The talking point lockstep, that's one of the things that I was thinking of when I say "frustrating". There is no way that even the dummies, or at least a good many of them, are that stupid-like the way they keep citing polls showing "overwhelming support" for a public option. I have yet to see an actual link to one of these polls, and if they did give one, it would be from a moonbat site. All mainstream polls show non-support for ObamaCare, much less a public option.

There's no way that many of them are that stupid, as to think that people (other than the peanut gallery) will just believe whatever they throw out there, just because they say so. Especially when we know, and they MUST know, that the polls show just the opposite of what they say.

This hypocrisy and willful ignorance of reality used to make me want to beat my head against a wall, how do you have a realistic debate, or even conversation, with people who make up facts to suit their argument, and know it, and don't care if you know it? As long as it supports the "virtual reality" that they want to be?

Sane people can't maintain the level of frustration and insult to their intelligence, you finally just get bored with the predictable mendacity, and bored with the assumption that you'll take their manipulations at face value.

All one has to do is look at the DUmmies that come over here to "debate". What a bunch of cannon fodder!

I voted a lot.

The Lounge is full of inside dirty jokes that are never funny.  Same old pictures, same old fat boob shots. Same old people trying to be cool and young geeky people trying to be cool.  It's sad.

There used to be lots of flirting and dirty secrets but they all moved to Facebook.  Even that is boring.

It's the same old crazy screaming nuts or the attention grabbers that make no sense.

It's hard to find the funny sometimes but I try.   

Late late at night they get drunk or high and post stuff they think no one will see.  Well sometimes, no one sees it.   

[Ptarmigan]

I get tired of them talking about their personal lives. I don't want to hear it.

[Airwolf]

I voted sometimes because once in while they find a meme that they haven't driven into the ground or they just plain do what comes natrual and they go out and try to screw the football with every post.

I said sometimes.  I get very weary with their lack of a single original thought to rattle around their empty gourds.  They receive talking points, take them as gospel, and then spew them back.  They cannot think for themselves.  For example, when Garafalo said all teapartiers were racist, that was the whole unvarnished God's truth from there on out. 

I get bored with AllentownJake's and others' economic screeds; which are so wrong given the historical reality.  For example, to many of them, the Reagan era was one big Great Depression with grinding poverty, soup kitchens out of soup, and cardboard shoes.  When they discuss tax policy, it would be funny if it wasn't so scary in these current times. 

However, I stay a faithful reader of CC and the DUmpster, for the gems we uncover. 

Ever care to discuss economics.  We can anytime.

The Primitives for the most part are not that nihilistic as I have seen outside of DU.
