Colbert is Rude

[GameMaster]

I guess I'm not truly familiar with the stylings of Colbert's show.

It just seems to me that if you're guest isn't laughing let alone smiling at your jokes, you should either stop making them or at least make them less crude.

Oh well, let sleeping dogs lie, right?

Hey Strangler. There's something I've wanted to say to you for a long time.

Now, before I do, let me preface it by saying that this has nothing to do with your opinions per se. But just over the years, you have gradually weathered me to a point annoyed frustration. I dig what you're out there doing. It must be tough being the one guy on the boards that nobody generally sides with in arguments. And you have even helped put Typhoid in perspective for me. I have now realized that he exists entirely as an antithesis to you. Arguing as annoyingly as possible but on whatever side that you're not on. But why does nobody side with you I wonder?

Is it because there's some sort of SPOOOOKY liberal media out there brainwashing us all and you are the only real beacon of truth? You have been many things over the years. You've been a true Bush supporter through and through even through the times that we all noticed him driving your country into the ground and getting you all involved in illegal wars. You have been there as a watch dog to attack the sinister leftist television and movie personalities. And you have also always been there to argue in thousands of paragraphs against any and all who have opinions that differ from yours.

We've had an interesting relationship. And I've got to know you somewhat well over the years.

And it's with all this in mind that I want to tell you to go eat a dick.

Thank you for putting that into perspective for me. Such an enlightened and well thought out argument. You are an excellent example for those logic machines that exist out there on the left...

1) This board is NOT in any shape a microcosm of the opinions fo the world we live in. That said, there are more than a few past and present members who have agree with my views on these boards, they don't speak out on politics. This is a reflection of most people who have conmservative views... they behave conservatively, not necessarily speaking about it. Ever wonder why there are so few conservative protests yet many conservatives in the world?

2) You and others here keep on saying I'm a true Bush supporter through and through, statements which completely contradict most Bush related posts I've made. I am aupporter of out role in the Middle East right now, and I even criticized his methods there as well. I think Bush is a travesty domestically. But then again, that would require you reading my posts and not just confabulating my opinions based on what you would like them to be. You say that you've gotten to know me over the years, but your complete lack of understanding when it comes to anything political I've ever said pretty much illustrates that you know next to nothing about me.

3) I'm sorry if you despise differing opinions so much. I find that to be a trend on the left. My opinions aren't just divergent, they are insulting to you. You are offended that I dare speak out in ways that you don't agree. You DESPISE the discourse, and only answer it with "eat a dick"? I'm sure you thought you were being funny, but you only make yourself look like a fool and taint the values that you have spoken about so many times on this thread. And I'd much rather peak on complex opinions and world views in paragraph form than the two sentence, substanceless soundbytes those who share your opinions seem to prefer. After all, there should be reason behind opinion.

In the end, you are the perfect example of the modern liberal. You think not with your head, but with your heart and when people disagree they are BAD and don't merely have a different opinion. Thank God you can't vote in US elections.

In the end, if the best argument you can make against my posts is "eat a dick", then I have to say I've royally succeeded in this forum. You have been reduced to school yard taunts because your own views cannot sustain the light of a detailed, logical and thought out argument. Rather face these facts, you become insulted that someone dared challenge them. Good for you.

[Dylflon]

Man I'm messing around with you.

Go take your paragraphs to someone who cares.

In retrospect I wish I hadn't posted that because for some reason you can take my personal dislike of YOU as a person and use it to fuel your anti-liberal tirade.

Now, I was thinking of getting up and defending myself in a reasoned debate because I am actually capable of reason.

And it may blow your mind but I don't actually disagree with every word you write on these boards. But here's why I'm not going to say anything in defense of myself or to dispute any of the claims that you just made about me: because it's not worth the trouble. I don't really care enough about what you think of me to have to read the hundred paragraph barrage of your semantics and nonsensery.

But for the record: I am not a liberal. I just have ideas that people label as liberal.

You don't even know who I am, much less be able to make a judgement as to whether or not you like me based solely on my political views. And it is my political views, not just the way I put them. You can't have a honest discussion with me based on facts and ideas, and I won't let ignorant chatter stand without rebuttal, so you decide you don't like me because I challenge you and your world view. How childish, especially considering how you are consistently wrong in telling what I think or even write about on these forums. Its just an excuse for you to ignore opposing points of view and a validation for not thinking critically.

Once again, being a conservative, I must be a bad person in your mind. You are a font of enlightened open mindedness. If it helps at all, I don't care much about you either way. Honestly, your posting on this forum doesn't warrant such a reaction.

Oh, and if you didn't care what I thought, you wouldn't bother responding to my posts. Try again.

You know me sooooo well.

Listen, I like people despite their political party. I am extremely open minded and just because I choose not to engage in text sparring with you here doesn't make that otherwise.

I told you to eat a dick because you annoy me not through your opinions but because every time I see you arguing I personally feel like you need to be the champion of every cause that suits you on this gaming forum. I have a lot of right wing friends, and I'm cool with them being right wing because that's their thing.

I'm not afraid of people challenging my world view. It's just that after my teen years I got tired of debating on these message boards where I can't make eye contact with the person I'm talking to and I can't gauge their tone of voice and they can't gauge mine.

I told you to eat a dick because I was bored. I told you to eat a dick because it amused me at the time. I told you to eat a dick because it was juvenile and it would get a rise out of you. I told you to eat a dick because you annoy me not through your opinion but your seemnig inflated sense of self worth that I know as egotism.

Was I being retarded? Yes. Does that make me an irrational human being? Not necessarily.

Why not stop making everything bigger than it really is?



PS. Eat a butt.

PPS. Say whatever you want now, I'm not responding again. I already fell into the trap.

[Professor S]

Dyflon, I make things as big as you let them get. Never forget that.

[Typhoid]

Strangler, you always pass the blame, and you usually are the first to personally attack someone.

You keep taking it bigger and bigger as long as the person talks back, yes. But you initiate it. You poke someone in the eye, then scream bloody murder that he attacked you.


Dylan, you should know by now that he will take whatever you say literally, and not as a joke.

I have discussions, passionate as they may be. I usually also have reasonable arguments, and expect them in return. If you are offended by reasonable arguments, thats not my problem, its yours.

As for not taking things as a joke... there was no joke. I was insulted by someone (who openly admits to not liking me) in response to an argument about whether or not The Daily Show and Colbert Report were intellectually dishonest. Of all the things for someone to hurls childish insults over, that is pretty much the last one I would have guessed.

But hey, I can be as hilarious as anyone else. Let me give it a try...

"You are a load that should have been left on your mother's C-section scar."

or maybe

"Fuck you, asshole"

Hilarious. Can everyone like me now?

[Fox 6]

Stranlger, all your posts are made with such egotism and rhetoric and it gives off the vibe that you have some sort of superiority complex over people that disagree with you. It seems that if you can in someway defeat every point that somebody has made against you, and then add a childish comment at the end, then you "win."

Case in point, from the "Last movies you saw" thread.

Except for the whole precog sci-fi plotline, child murder vendetta and social criticism, I guess so. Once again, so close.



Except for the fact that they are completely different in almost every way besides the fact they they both have superpowers that are nothing like one anothers. Not even close.



Haven't seen Sunshine yet, so I couldn't tell you.



Not yet, please keep them coming, this is fun.

I mean yeah, he was off, infact way off. You made your point, and it was bang on. That last sentence just seems like such a "dick" move.

Secondly you sound as if your "modern Liberal" as you put it is trying to undermind your rights and has some sort of political and unrespecting vendetta against the right. Thats just BS. Its politics!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! of course either side is going to jump all over the other if they see a chance. You honestly dont think that if the roles were reversed, the conservatives would be cranking out whatever they felt would tarnish the others reputation?


I understand if something directed towards you gets you caught in the moment, but dude.......................... yeah................




PS. EAT A DICK

PPS. dear god now i have encouraged the wrath of the all mighty. Now he will think all of us Conservative Liberals are after the right wings' political nut sack.

PPPs. Im aware that im being a jerk to make my point.

That's the thing.
First, I'm not offended, nor did I say I was.

Secondly, you're right. If I am offended, it is my problem. And like you, I shall let you know about it if it offends me in such a way I feel compelled to. Much like you always do.

The thing is, you segregate yourself from everyone else. you say one thing (such as "if it offends you, it's your problem, not mine" but then in the same situation when the tables are turned, you make a lengthy post about it, and call it a "reasonable argument" and in so many words try and belittle whoever you're talking to with some sort of "witty" (not witty) comment at the very end that doesn't make any sort of connotation towards your age at all.


You have three people telling you the exact same thing.

I hilariously await your absolutely hilarious reply as to why we're all wrong.

And take note, I haven't said anything offensive towards you. I never called you a name, or made any judgement on character in a defaming way.

But if I offended you, that's your problem - not mine.


PS. See what I did there? I ended my post like you. This is fun. I see why you do it all the time now.

Typhoid, I apologize, as most of my comments were directed at you, but intended to be a response to Dyflon's insult. I can see how I caused the confusion, though.

And I have three people telling me that I'm wrong??? Stop the presses!!! I completely change my entire way of thing!!! Once again, this forum is not in any shape a microcosm of the real world and to call it a bastion of informed discussion would be an insult to informed discussion.

By the way, it doesn't take three people to change the way I think, it only takes one person who can use EVIDENCE, RESOURCE and REASON to SHOW MW WHY MY BELIEFS ARE INCORRECT. Xantar has done this on numerous occassions, as I'm sure I have done for him as well. Just telling me I'm wrong because you think I am is masturbatory, while informed discussion is enlightening.

And I'm not sure why you think I'd be offended by what you and Dyflon say. I never have been and I've never shown myself to be. I don't take political discussion personally, and if anyone does, they are silly and automatically rule out liking 50% of the populace at least. Thats why I say I don't think of Dyflon eiter in like or dislike, because all we ever talk about is political topics and I never base such things as "like liking" someone based on that.

Two of my best friends are flaming liberals, and we have heated arguments all the time and we remain great friends. Its not a sign that we're jerks, its a sign that we are passionate about our beliefs and have the balls to stand by them and defend them as if we cared and inform ourselves about them as if we cared. An untested opinion is the most worthless thing in the world.

FYI, I broke this up into smaller paragraphs as I hear my long winded, detailed nature is difficult for some people to read. Next time I'll just bullet point everything in easily digestable and meaningnes soundbytes... (that was not intended towards you, Typhoid)

[Typhoid]

I didn't say you have three people telling you that you're wrong.
I said you have three people telling you the exact same thing - to do with your "must win" and "it's all a game" mentality.
