a modest proposal for Skins
« on: March 31, 2017, 05:17:39 AM »
Ever since the elections nearly five months ago, we've seen a steady erosion in the credibility, the reputation, the good name, of Skins's island, because the primitives insist upon posting every rumor, every hope, of the impending impeachment of President Trump as if it's real news.

And then when it turns out to not be true, the primitives get disconsolate, down in the dumps.

I think it would be good if Skins imposed a new rule on the primitives; unless a news story about the impending impeachment of President Trump (or whoever else) is already linked on the Drudge Report, it's reasonable to assume it's fake news by someone trying to gull the primitives, and doesn't need to show up on Skins's island, all but destroying its reputation as a legitimate news site.

Any day they're not having a good day, is a good day for us, frank.

Help keep America beautiful...deface a liberal.

The Democrat and Republican parties are simply the left and right wings of the same bird of prey.

The road to freedom is paved with dead liberals.

I know, and I agree, but this is a case where the lachrymal glands are secreting for my fellow alum Skins; he doesn't need this constant humiliation.....especially not from primitives vastly inferior to him.

Well, I wouldn't put that past him; remember, this is the same guy who purposely "crashed" Skins's island election afternoon so as to avoid getting into trouble with law enforcement because of reckless comments by homicidal primitives.

So that's possible.

But on the other hand, it's discouraging to see the primitives themselves show no self-restraint in posting bogus news items; surely they know it stains the good name of Skins's island, all this fake news, and that it hurts the guy who so kindly and magnanimously gives them a place to romp and play.  They have no respect for him.

Coach, they're primitives.  Everything is always about them. 

Too bad for Skins. :whistling:

The sheer lunacy was funny for a while back in January when the Island was floated back to the surface but now it is just boring and a little depressing.

Exactly! A substantial % of DU posts are fake-news stories and discussion thereof..

When you are at rock bottom on the credibility scale there is only one way to go, unless your are DUmpmonkies. Then you get a shovel and start digging.

Skins is a Yale alum.  So is Frank.  That's why Frank 'advises' Skins.

Oh--just to throw this in--IIRC, Yale has one NCAA D-1 sports championship.  They won the Men's Hockey Championship over Quinnipiac in 2013.

You know, I'll let them have their fun.  Right now, it's all they've got to cling to.
