Re: Political Humor (Anything Goes Forum)
I love you guys, this stuff is too funny. Great post and great book recommendation. I'm done, but I reserve the right not to be... or to be. What was the question?
Re: Political Humor (Anything Goes Forum)
I am amused as well. What tends to happen is that someone from a specific demographic posts a topic that is antithetical to another's. The OP posits a "progressive" idea or thought. This post is then perceived as an existential threat by the other party, who is intolerant of any idea that contradicts their personal long-standing dogma.greengrass wrote:I love you guys, this stuff is too funny.

Hilarity ensues.

Re: Political Humor (Anything Goes Forum)
My bad...I didn't get that the different forum posts go to the front page. You were obviously posting where you were suppose to. I just am over the political posts....not a trump supporter........but I am a psychologist.......or however you spell it:)

As a psychologist, what behavioral nuances do you detect in peoples' posts and responses here?jbchil1 wrote:My bad...I didn't get that the different forum posts go to the front page.

I notice a lot of projection, don't you?

Good job Wiz on correcting my voice control. You are a beacon of intellectualism. Who hurt you?

You guys suck, really. Get a room somewhere else.
Re: Political Humor (Anything Goes Forum)
You guys that unleash unprovoked anger on your federal co-workers,
in an attempt to force them to talk on subjects you like to read,
rather than you making your own discussions,
probably make these people,
many with information to give,
want to just stop posting as they desire,
and bend and comply with your demands,
and reveal all that they know,
to you,
about the markets.
A lot of people tell me that's how you do sarcasm. Right? Right? Believe me, the best sarcasm--that I can tell ya. Beautiful sarcasm

Re: Political Humor (Anything Goes Forum)
Hey, did you hear the one about the guys that hate political bars, walking into a political bar ...
Why would they do that? Answer:
People that say they hate political discussions, enter forums clearly designated for political discussions,
for the same reasons that,
A group of straight guys would walk into a gay bar years ago ... to start trouble.
The trouble instigators aren't those wanting legitimate discussions; they are the ones entering the forum with no intent of legitimate discussion.
They want to start trouble with the hopes that moderators will simply shut down the forum, rather than taking a little more effort to ban the instigators.

Perfect example. Out of the blue instigation, then self-defense. (Pretty good response, I might add. )bloobs wrote:You swallow.misfit wrote: You guys suck, really. Get a room somewhere else.
I always come in peace, but will defend myself. Sometimes my defense is minimal, subtle and tranquil, other times not.
