JWB is making some good points but at the end of the day posting that word on here is only going to piss people off, you've been here long enough to know the nature of the forum.

And haha @ Ori's gif. Nicking that.

because if i talk like this and don't capitalise words like "i" or darth vader or luke skywalker or mark hamill or the joker it becomes much harder to follow the object of a sentence than if he were to talk more like this and capitalise words like "I" or Darth Vader or Luke Skywalker or Mark Hamill or The Joker.

If not writing like a complete moron is actually something that requires concentration and effort from you, that says a lot about you in my opinion.

i get it, i'm going to stop being un-pc on this forum. it's just not worth the effort anymore. there are other people i can talk to in an unfiltered way without the headaches that you guys bring

i have considered this before but i always get sucked back in by comments of encouragement

at the end of the day i guess most people like the idea of someone who "speaks their mind" in theory so long as their mind never steps out of line and goes against the goals of the worker's party of north korea

if following my posts without capitalized letters is actually something that requires concentration and effort from you, then i would say the same to you.

invent an app that does it for me. i'll use it.

If I've learned anything from Batlord, it's that nobody cares if you're a jerk as long as you have legitimate charm. Maybe you should look into that.

Hey, I'm all in favor of capitalizing things that are supposed to be capitalized, including proper nouns like "Darth Vader". I was just pointing out that pronouns (plural) are not supposed to capitalized. "I" is the only one treated that way.

DwnWthVwls 02-16-2015 10:09 AM

I just don't understand why you care. They get all worked up, time goes on, and no one gives a shit anymore. It's not like you'll be viciously attacked in every other post you make. Everyone will argue with each other about something none of them said and you get to sit there with your evil grin and continue reading other topics without drama.

Machine 02-16-2015 10:09 AM

Well I had **** to say about this, but now I'm not really sure if I want to speak my mind considering that it's kind of winding down.

I ain't got a problem with anything you've posted ftr, just saying it was always going to go this way.

Oh, and I just noticed this. Entirely true. Look at Clinton. He embarrassed the whole country, lied under oath, and is married to the Wicked Witch of the West, but we all still love him because he's got a sexy southern accent and got a blow job while on the phone with a Congressman. **** yeah, Clinton!

cause it starts to affect more or less every interaction i have with people on there. people always assume i'm working some angle and accuse me of lieing about the strangest things

so the effort i put into trying to clarify and make my voice heard is not worth it at the end of the day

it's not like i will ever resort to being dishonest. i just wont say the honest **** that is likely to cause a frenzy i guess. that will make things less interesting for me because those are the types of things i find more amusing but at the end of the day what's the point in hanging around a site where you just keep making enemies all the time?

i don't have common sense when it comes to people. a lot of people are different. none of the stuff i've said here would've raised an eyebrow if i said it irl with the majority of the people i know.

you're one of the people i was referring to who keeps saying don't change, and then when i don't change you whine about it. lol

sorry to single you out, but that's just a perfect example of what i was saying.

I did, I now understand, miss a subtle pune, or play on words.

Also JWB, I can ask you to type less like a moron. If you do, you gain the benefits of sounding more erudite, cultured, well mannered and generally less stupid.

Alternatively, everyone else could put themselves to the trouble of deciphering not only your crappy arguments but also your crappy grammar. One of those is a reasonable request, the other is not. Deal with it.

it's a false sense of intellectual prowess that doesn't really interest me, guy. let's stick to me not calling people ***gots for now and we'll talk about the grammar later, ok?

Chula Vista 02-16-2015 10:34 AM

Can we please lock this thread for a day? I'm tired of seeing it show up.

Plankton 02-16-2015 10:36 AM

JWB, I gave you a solution, and you totally ignore it. Promptly **** off.

Also, yeah that was a bad example for someone who's a charming *******. All Billy did was get a blowjob. He wasn't being a jerk.

You, Batlord. Lookin at you my friend, are the perfect example of a charming jerk, and you're not even that charming.

you did a while back when i said i would change my posting style you said don't self-censor just don't be mean to animals or whatever

and then above you seconded a comment not to bow to popular anti-opinion

even batlord was trying to have it both ways with that comment because what is not using "offensive" language that i don't find offensive for the sake of other people if not "bowing to popular anti-opinion"

i honestly don't dislike anyone on this site. i have positive and negative things to say about each of you but i'm fine with you, even my antagonists like neo. he's just sticking up for whatever he thinks is right, so i don't hold it against him. at least he's up front about it.

but tbh you don't exactly like "me," you like the walmart version that's been edited for popular consumption
