Thucy Depends Fund
In a recent pot, Thucy made a brave admission: he said he doesn,t know what it means to be respnsible for his own bowel movements...yes, he doesn't understand he has responsibilty to not shit hus pants. It's true...he said this.
Therefore, as a caring community, we will start a fund to purchase and send Thucy a supply of Depends. Would anyone care to start a PayPal account for this. We're just waiting on his size preference before we begin collections.

Cheap Oil Paintings at www.westealtoorder.com
I've spent some time wondering around some galleries recently and I'm amazed how lax the security is. There are so few people actually looking at the pictures that I doubt anyone would notice if a few went missing. Let me have your requests and proposals for payment.

UN-Equal Reporting - Black on White Crime
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2385447/Theyre-beat-boy-death--Bus-driver-heard-pleading-CCTV-help-13-year-old-brutally-beaten-older-teens-way-school.html

A 13 year old white boy (unreported, but seen in video) is severly beaten by 3 15 year old black youths. No US reporting....No Al Sharpton in the streets. No calls for racial justice. Silence in the USA. Care to explain, anyone? Interested in why people think this is? Had it been REVERSED...imagine the hue and cry...

Idiots hate logic?
There are a couple prominent idiots on the forum recently doing foul things towards logic...and have been prominent idiots in the past (4 examples to follow). The forum response? THEY TAKE THEM SERIOUSLY. Funny, the mods openly speak about all sorts of multiaccounting issues...but on rampant logical fallacy by idiots...silence. Do IDIOTS HATE LOGIC?!?

Let's see...

On Politics...you have a problem with me using the very same labels that other groups use for themselves....check. OK, when someone applies a name to themselves, use a different name than they use. OK...I see...

On Women...I posted a link to a study on women...I didn't write the study...hell, I didn't even comment on the study...I *posted a ink*. ewwww....how terrible of me...

On climate change...YellowJacket posted a link to a discussion XBOX 360 vs. PS3

and...who is the fool here?

I'll gladly have a discussion over the use of certain protected racial language with you any time, YellowJacket, but we know you are too much of a coward to have an open discussion with me.

I'll gladly have a discussion with you over...err...women's health studies?? If that is a big concern for you, any time. I will also point out that, in that particular instance, I *specifically* pointed out that the link was tongue-in-cheek and a dig at feminism...but, we know YJ....reading is harrrrrds....(Maybe some nice lady will read the threads to you? Would that help?)

I won't discuss XBOX 360 vs PS3 with you...that's jut retarded, as the systems are 4 months from obsolete.

I won't waste my time with your youtube link...intelligent internet users don't click through random links.

So...wow...Troll much, YellowJacket? Once again, proving yourself to be the halfwit we all know you to be.

Joking aside Krellin has previously admitted he is battling against a serious addiction. I don't know if that is true but I know people that are sufferers and I know what impact it has on their lives and I can only guess that it takes a fair amount of courage to talk about such personal issues in very candid terms.
I respect and applaud any person for their resolve to fight and win against addiction, whether it be gambling, drugs, alcohol, etc.
I personally have a lot of respect for the guy, if ranting at people on internet forums is the cure then I know a few other people I would recommend for such treatment.
Is he a basket case, yes possibly.
Hey there's nothing wrong with nutters, every one should have one as a drinking buddy, or a pet :-)

Yeah, I like a good rant personally so I can't be too offended by mr krellin.

But I do wonder about his health and well being. Some day he's going to get so angry he's going to drop dead from an aneurism. And it will be a mystery to us what happened.

I think this forum would wither and die without krellin.
krellin (80 DX)
01 Aug 13 UTC
dirge....I'm not angry in the least. Simply because I point out YellowJacket has landed on Uranus does not indicate I am angry. YellowJacket, on the other hand, has *clearly* gone off the deep end...

...I actually have a spy cam in YJ's rooms...even now he is sitting alone, huddled in a corner, hands to his mouth, fingers wiggling his lips while mutters unmentionables to himself. Sadly, it appears he is unbathed...and perhaps has been so for many days, and...I'm certain it's simply a part of his mental condition...but he appears to have soiled himself. That being said, Peppy, his three-legged schnauzer, seems to be making gains on...er...this is a bit gross...cleaning him up. A friendly pup, for certain, but a little disgusting. He seems to have been surviving on bon bons and cheery coke and, oddly enough, a pile of beets, given the wrappers, cans and greens scattered about him, but alas his stash seems to be dwindling, which is perhaps what has brought him out even this day...a desperate cry for help, for recognition, hoping someone will come save him from himself.

I pity poor Yellowjacket...while I have suffered my own problems, his seem to have taken him to a depth of despair that even I did not reach.

Hang in there, old boy...there is a light...

As for my health...I feel better than I have in literally *years*, having been dry for many months now. I appreciate any thoughts and concerns.

Yeah, need to dry up myself. I'd suggest an AA thread, but AA pisses me the f off.
krellin (80 DX)
01 Aug 13 UTC
dirge -- AA never worked with me. It's a bunch of people, usually chain smoking, talking about falling off the wagon and them coming back to AA, etc. It seemed more a club about continuins to fail and try again, than about succeeding forever.

Honestly, I went the medical route -- antabuse. *Nasty* stuff, but I guarantee you won't drink again once you try.
dirge (768 D(B))
01 Aug 13 UTC
Antabuse? Crap. Don't they have anything better than that by now? I guess not.

I quit smoking cold turkey years ago, but alcohol has that social thing to it.
krellin (80 DX)
01 Aug 13 UTC
Smoking I quit without a problem as well. Antabuse is great -- no side effects as long as you are dry...and if you drink, well, I pretty much thought I was going to...and wanted to...die. That's a pretty damned effective deterrent
Do like I did and mute that fool. From where I'm sitting, this forum is actually a relatively reasonable bastion of insightful thought and whatnot.
Krellin, if you have a drinking problem, start smoking weed instead. Not only will it give you the intoxication you crave, but it will do it with no hangover and a fraction of the ill health effects.

Plus it will calm you down and, like, help you understand the interconnectedness of reality and shit.
Also, it's cheaper. No kidding.
dirge (768 D(B))
02 Aug 13 UTC
oh for fucks sake
naw, bruh

for real
I think the thing that bothers me the most about Krellin is how much he reminds me of myself ten years ago. I, too, used to be a media-addled right-wing automaton. I grew out of it. I hope he does, too.

You know how you've got no heart if you're under thirty and not a socialist, and you've got no brain if you're over thirty and are one?

I got the worst of both worlds.

@AWB
One - If pot were legal, I’d be all over it – it is a *far* better drug than alcohol in all ways imaginable, and I never had any addiction issues with it when I used it…but it’s illegal, and I have a family, so except on very rare (and lucky) occasions, no smoke here…sigh…

As for “media-addled right-wing automaton”…Give me a fucking break, seriously. One, I have no cable TV – over the air only, so I hardly watch broadcast news. Primarily I get it from the radio, some talk shows, and about 50% NPR, and otherwise I do that most UN-American thing…I read…and I read multiple news sources and (GASP!!) I form my *own* fucking opinions based upon a conglomeration of news, based upon historical evidence, all of that *informed by PRINCIPLE*…such as self-reliance…You claim to be some free, enlightened thinker who has escaped the bondage of right-wing media…and yet by this ridiculous comment/suggestion, you are simply a left-wing parrot, accusing me of being brainwashed because you don’t like an argument I make --- even when I back it up with evidence. Give a break man…you’re better than that.

Maniac (189 D(B))

Krellin - I think you miss a big point about using the word nigger. I'm with you, in so far as you and I should be allowed to express themselves however we choose and different groups shouldn't be able to retain words for their own use whilst condemning other groups who use the same words. But, and its a big BUT, once society has defined social norms - and those norms are pretty clear - people who step outside those norms do so at their peril and shouldn't be surprised at the backlash. Society views those people harshly and assumes that in this case the use of the word nigger is racial rather than freedom of expression.

Let me give you an analogy. Public nudism. We are all nude at various times each day, some people can get away with being nude in public, young children on a beach, adults in designated zones etc. one could argue that nudism everywhere should be allowed, it's our natural state, it reinforces our right to freedom of expression and it isn't right that under 5's can get away with it and we can't. Now trying telling that to the policeman who arrests you outside the primary school as you take your morning stroll au natural.

The rights and wrongs of the argument for and against saying nigger or walking naked are irrelevant. You know what the expected norm is and cross the line and you will be judged a racist or peadophile. Frankly you shouldn't be surprised.

Maniac...slavery was once a social norm....this is a classic leftist argument I am adopting. Using Nigger is a social norm in this way...black can use it freely, white's get fired from their job and ostricized from society if they use it. I REJECT that social norm, just as people once rejected the social norm of slavery.

If people would stop being such cowards and *stop empowering the word*....it's a word, it has no power except that which you give it...and the black community wields that word like a weapon. It's time to disarm the word.

Your nudist example is not analogous at all.
