Does the thread have to be here or can it be on Haas or the Premium board?

IThere's no hypocrisy.
Im not posting 70x a day, every day.
Not even close.

I would be fine posting under 25x a day.

In fact, I took 6- months off from this place.
But I have a feeling others cant do the same.
They're clearly addicted to arguing with strangers.
It gives them life.

I made a constructive suggestion.
Nobody cared.




Clearly, they aren't the only ones addicted to arguing on this message board.

It gives others life too.


Yes, I noticed that you were arguing about the price of ice cream today. Kind of like when you were arguing about the price of a Denny's value meal.

If I was married with kids I'd probably be spending time with my family, instead of spending so much time arguing with strangers on the internet.

But maybe that's just me.


Well, in all fairness, here is what happened.

Supposed Cal grad: inflation is so high right now! look at this ben and jerry's ice cream on sale for $6.99.

Oski003: ummm, here is a picture of Ben & Jerry's near me for $1.99.

Supposed Cal grad: That is clearly cherry-picked data.

Oski003: bro, here is a screen shot of a quick google search of Ben & jerry's prices near me where I can buy all sorts of pints for far less than $6.99.

Supposed Cal grad: Who cares bro. I like a different ice cream anyway. Make like a tree and leaf.


Hopefully, one day you will objectively read your own posts. Perhaps you actually have and that is why you are arguing for a posting limit.

Just like I don't care that my Porsche GT3 gets 13 might.



Then why post your ice cream price to begin with? You were trying to make a point and it backfired.


Why do you care so much about points I make?



You've already agreed that I reply to everyone. You're not special buddy

I don't disagree. Trump will be a dirt buddy with Ivanka and he will still be a main topic of discussion here

Just like how people still talk about Benedict Arnold and Jefferson Davis!

Asked and answered.



I'm catching up and reading this thread…
I'll say this. You're a smart guy and have a good heart.
But your ability to engage in incessant, futile, back and forth bickering is nearly unrivaled.

There essentially 2 people who play this role with you and I would just suggest that you resist the temptation to engage. Your life will be much better.

Think of your antagonists as if they were nothing more than computer code written to:
1) Reply to you
2) Antagonize you
3) Prompt you to reply back so that overall hit count increases.

If BI makes money off online ads, hit count matters, and you're being played.

If you knew it was a bot, you'd not reply. Imagine if you were experiencing all this anguish with a bot.

That's how I've come to look at it. The SYNTAX is not worth my energy.

I juat want just all to agree that for every 100 posts you start a non political thread. A good book, discovered movie, cool cultural event.

Like i went to a really great barber of seville in san diego. Fantastic direction that empahiszed the opera buffo.


I've created those threads. They seldom get picked up.
Wife is right! Trump is a uniquely hated carcass. He inspires incredible discussion.

MAGA was a campaign lie.

Only terribly gullible people believed in MAGA.
There were no MAGA principles. Just ask MTG or Tucker Carlson. People got duped by MAGA just like they got duped by DOGE.



it's just a slogan, nothing more.
People are dumb and like slogans. They work.

No they aren't! They are poison.
