Bummer. I'm starting to wonder if written history has any connection to what was actually going on at the time?
Tuesday would be better for me, but if it has to be in January that would be fine with the ballpark.2dimes wrote:I know you can't understand what I wanted to say becuase we're trying to use text and it doesn't work.

1) I am not glad your mother and father had sex at all.heavycola wrote:I am so PROUD that my mother and father had perfunctory sex...
If you had met my parents, you would understand. It HAD to be perfunctory.jimboston wrote:1) I am not glad your mother and father had sex at all.heavycola wrote:I am so PROUD that my mother and father had perfunctory sex...
2) I am curious how you know their sex was perfunctory? Are you like the fifth child, and making an assumption that by #5 their sex life had become perfunctory... or have you discussed this with them. It's not possible that they were having mad hot monkey sex... and that your life is the product of this passion?
Well... since I have no interest in meeting you, you'll have to forgive me for also having no interest in meeting your parents.heavycola wrote: If you had met my parents, you would understand. It HAD to be perfunctory.
OK.2dimes wrote:He's british.
This is quite the cruellest post that has ever been directed at me. What happened to you, Jimboston? When did you become so cold? So mean? Where is your heart?jimboston wrote:Well... since I have no interest in meeting you, you'll have to forgive me for also having no interest in meeting your parents.heavycola wrote: If you had met my parents, you would understand.

Oh... yes I did catch the past-tense "had met". I don't give a flying poop if they are alive or dead... I still don't want to meet them.
It was cruel wasn't it. I should be sorry.heavycola wrote:This is quite the cruellest post that has ever been directed at me. What happened to you, Jimboston? When did you become so cold? So mean?

History bears the same relationship to fact that theology does to religion. That is, none to speak of. R.A.H.2dimes wrote:Thus we arrive at a discussion that I would really like to have that just can never happen in text form.

when my parents fucked on this lump of rock, they said here is your lump of rock. Its can either be a nice peaceful lump of rock, or a shitty piece of rock. That's up to you.heavycola wrote:I LOVE my country. I am so PROUD that my mother and father had perfunctory sex on this lump of rock instead of another lump of slightly different rock. And I KNOW that GOD HIMSELF has chosen this lump of rock over every other lump of rock to be his favouritest lump of rock on the planet.
I love my country SO FUCKIN MUCH that I will act in the service of WHATEVER agenda is presented to me by the politicians who make this arbitrarily delineated chunk of landmass what it is. Because even though words like 'freedom' and 'terror' are abstract nouns, I will lay down my life to either attack and defend (or defend and attack, i can't quite remember which) freedom and terror (and also possibly happiness and failure and mysticism, if I am asked) because I LOVE MY COUNTRY.
I WILL DIE DEFENDING OR ATTACKING AN ABSTRACT CONCEPT BECAUSE MY PARENTS FUCKED ON THIS LUMP OF ROCK INSTEAD OF A DIFFERENT LUMP OF ROCK. Goddamit i'm weeping again. Will someone please post a picture of a crying eagle that is defending freedom and has a dying patriot held in its flag-wrapped talon? PLEASE?
