Then you didn't pay much attention when you were around.

And don't act like you're the only one who has spent long hours working.

I still do.

Nope, I didn't just went to whatever game I happened to be playing at the moment and left.  Wasn't much interested in anything else then except relaxing out on the patio with a fire, playing music, working in the yard or, in the winter, watching a movie after a long day, or putting together puzzles.  Some days I didn't even turn the 'puter on.

When the trolls showed up in the past -- mostly before you got here, none of us took our panties/Midol and ran.

We're still here.

You're still a newcomer with no concept whatsoever where this forum evolved from and what the history is.

That's why you are so irrelevant.

You seem to think you have come up with novel ideas in debate. :rolleyes:

Are you talking to me?  I have been around THIS forum since the beginning and the Hey Martha for three or four years before I came here...What NOVEL ideas have I suggested?  All I am saying is, after 10 years of debating the SAME people, it is getting kind of old...and yet, we all stay here and spout the same ol same ol....

Here is what I am getting at............WHY?  Why do we stay here?  I have been asking myself this question for a long time....I come here nearly every day....it is like "crack" on the internet...

I know darn well what the dialogue is going to be...we have had basically the same 10 or 12 members for the last 10 years....who is going to take which side of an issue, who is going to be an ass....and like I said, I am no different.  I am not pointing fingers at anyone, just asking the question....why are we here?

Well, it isn't rocket science: the same few will parrot the opinions of their favorite right-wing shock jock or Faux news while the majority will form positions using logical conjecture based on overwhelming observable evidence.  :biggrin:

I bet if you had your way, we would all belong to the formum union and HAVE to give a membership fee for some higher ups to go play golf and come up with more rules on our dime.

...on what the mainstream media...

And by mainstream media, you mean conservatives?

I keep hearing that Fox has higher ratings than all those outlets combined. Wouldn't that make Fox "mainstream media?"

  You're right Henry. :doh:  Like the CEO and the Super Rich don't use stock holder money and our tax dollars to play golf and have lavish parties on our dollars.  Right Henry.   :confused:  Just like I have said so many times, Henry you don't know shit.  :haha:
