invitation to the homeless from Skins's island

[franksolich]

You know, it's a bitch, one's favorite message-board going down.

<<<knows.

This is a reminder that those made temporarily homeless are more than welcome to come here, sign up, and post; there's only two rules, after all--no disrespect for those in, or once in, the military service, and no divulgement of someone's personal information.

We point with pride that we have no ideological or "purity" standards for membership; only the two rules cited above, which of course are broader than just politics.

Although generally it's not a good idea to get dutch508 upset.

A few of you already have accounts here; you're always free to use them.

So.....come on in, kick off your shoes, lay back, relax, and get mellow.

You're instituting weapons hold?

(Ask Dutch what that means.)

And have a little conversation with us GOP regional minority party uneducated racist women hating deplorables... that elected the 45th president of the USA yesterday.

Okay,out of respect for Frank I will say come on Buzzy,Mineral Man,etc...lets have a conversation,show me you are capable of grasping just how offensive you are to good people that just want government to do its basic functions and not try to pick winners by rearranging the game board as you perceive it to advance consolidating power.

You know my utter contempt for you but I will lay that aside and talk if you want to.

The Great Watashi sees a flaw in your plan, Frank.
You'll have to turn off the pottymouth blocker or they won't be able to communicate with us.

It may be difficult to talk Buzz into coming. He was one of the more condescending hill trolls at DI. He was so sure Hillhag was doing to win, that he tried to make life insufferable for all others. Buzz's shame may already have him half way to Canada right now.

Poor Buzz. He is likely paralyzed without a sounding-board to tell him how right he really is.

Of course you're aware, sir, the invitation has been extended in the same spirit that one tells a nuisancesome guest, "we'll have to get together more often," being extended with the secret realization that it's not going to happen.

But one wishes to look polite.

I will confess I'd really like a few of them to come over here to enjoy themselves, but it's not going to happen.

Wonder how Graham4anything is holding up?  That mope claimed 2 years ago that Hillary would get 500 electoral votes.

Discussionist refugee here. Anyone here post at DI? I'm looking for friends.
Skinner claims DU was hacked but says nothing about DI being down.
He shut it down himself. I'm sure of it so we couldn't gloat.
I really, really want to gloat, especially at g4a. I've waited a long time to tell g4a to eat shit and bark at the moon.

Well, I'm not on DI, but I like the way you talk. 

 

The general consensus here is that the hacking thing had a whole lot more to do with $kins than it did with any actual hackers attacking his sites.

Well I am pretty obvious over there. I'm Da Mannn. Please do not reveal your true ID here...they read this place. I'm already known to them.

--if and when DI does go back up, be prepared. Liberals may try to vent their rage by alerting on all conservatives...a purge. still a few hides are worth a little gloating.

I decided long ago to not post at DI - I've always felt it was a honeytrap of sorts - to lure moles on DU into complacency, such that comparing a few IP numbers between DI & DU members could serve Skins as a form of mole detection.

But regardless -Welcome. 

[Big Dog]

franksolich, can you invite Jugs to come over? She'll do it for you.

I wish.

But I think Jugs is afraid of dutch508.

[SVPete]

Welcome, Gretchen.

Skinner's playing games? Maybe. DU's dinosaurian home-brew Rube-Goldberg forum SW getting hacked 3/4 of the way to Valhalla? Maybe.

Hi Gretchen

I am "occasionally" over there, not too often as I cannot abide the stench.
Different name though.

[Red alert]

Hello everyone. Thought I would take frank up on his offer. With di being down I'm like a political lost boy.

Congratulations on the election. Very few things feel better than winning. My side lost, your side won. I'm not feeling optimistic about our future, but only time will tell.

I am actually a little bit worried for some of the du members. That place is their support system. I wouldn't be surprised if there aren't a few suicides. I know some here would rejoice over that and that's cool. They provide me with a lot of entertainment so I don't wish them harm. Just like this place. Been an avid reader since I first found it. And even though I vehemently disagree with some of the members here,  I have never harbored any ill will.

So anyway I just stopped by to congratulate you and say thanks for the temporary accommodations. I'll try not to dirty up the place while I'm here.

[Karin]

Hi Red Alert, welcome.  I agree that DU was the support system for many of them, some of them quite fragile.  It's an insulated, bubble-like, unhealthy support system, but nonetheless.  Many get so addicted that if they screw up, like Will Pitt, they come crawling on hands and knees to beg Skinner for another chance. 

Maybe I feel the same way about CC.  We were down for a month once, and until we all found a temp home at conservativeunderground, who graciously took us all in, I was a little bereft.  You get to know and like your regular forum friends.  We all joked that we got a hell of a lot of work done in the interim.   

[Karin]

Reviewing your body of work, you said this:

Dear Nutty Nadin, may a life Long Democrat reply? (I hope you guys are true to your word). The thing you need to be afraid of is called reality. It only takes a relatively sane person a few minutes of browsing the DUmp to realize the left is being hijacked by a bunch of freeloaders and dimwits. Anyone who even remotely believes in self determination (or is unwilling to check their balls at the door) are immediately ridiculed and banned. If I hear the word free again as it relates to government services I will slit my wrists.

You guys have done what no other person has been able to do in decades. Disenfranchised this voter to the point of sitting the next one out. May you reap what you sow, you sow.

Nice! 

That self-determination bit is spot on.  "Boot straps" is a term that will get anyone tossed out the door.

Hi Red. I'm glad you're here. I wish Ford would come over here. He's a lib but he's also a decent guy. I'm not a Republican or a Democrat. I seem more like a Republican though because I'm moderate in most things. The Democrats have gone so far off the charts with stupidity that I spend my fun time telling them how stupid they sound.

Welcome - New faces are always good - As for DU, yeah some of those people live and breathe that site - which is crazy.. its the internet, it isn't real life. .. And I also agree that there may be at least a suicide or two at DU because of the (albeit temporary) loss of the site combined with the election loss. As I'm sure you know already, there are only a couple of ways to get banned here, so feel free to speak your mind. We dont do juries, but you might get bitchslapped. Enjoy. 

[DUmpDiver]

Another DI refugee here (you guys need to vet better. )

Also, as you can tell from my username, a longtime fan of watching the hilarity that goes on at The DUmp.

My theory on DI being down is that Skimmer was running it on the same server and that his capitalist cash cow at The DUmp is his number one priority so DI probably won't be back until after DU.

BTW, I am a conservative and aside from missing The DUmp meltdown happening in real time also wanted to do some gloating to many of the arrogant leftist dickheads on DI.

G4 is either in the morgue or in a padded cell on 24/7 suicide watch. (assuming G4 wasn't faking it in the first place - which I still think is likely)

I wondered if after the election G4A would come out as a parody or if he was Skinner himself. Remember when he said he wanted the Mooch to be president after BO and Chelsea after Mooch?
Oh yeah, speaking of Webb Hubbell's daughter Chelsea, her hope of a dynasty is in the sewer. We won't be seeing the ugly face of that cretin any more.

[Ptarmigan]

franksolich, can you invite Jugs to come over? She'll do it for you.

I have not seen her in a while.
