Naw, man...joshing with you on that a bit. You did no wrong. But hey, you can call me kid all you want, I doubt that I am more than a handful of years younger, but I will take it anytime I can.

As too MarAzul..dont you think it would be a kick to have an adult beverage with him?
I've had a beer with Marzy. Enjoyed it very much. Enjoyed talking to his brother, as well. Took a little boat ride with him and his brother where we shared beers. Not so sure he'd be up for it with me these days.
 
At that age I had a library card and read tons of books and the Sunday paper ...didn't watch TV, still don't and there was no internet...no problem gaining insight and creating my own opinions...working for the Navy opened my eyes to Nixon....people talked about the state of the world face to face without feeling a need to link articles to the conversations....original thought...a dying art form in my view. The greatest thinkers in history were for the most part...well read loners. Wisdom comes purely from experience ...young folks would do well to go out and experience the world and opportunities ..those that do will eliminate a lot of problems at an early age. Those that don't will just practice bitching about problems all throughout life with no solutions in sight...
That's your view. Just because I have been vocal on this particular thread doesn't mean I don't live a life. I don't know what you expect
 
You're just not keeping up...you said you're smarter than someone and younger....you've used this repeatedly as a way of liking your own post...good luck with that...I read the whole thread...you proved nothing in my view except that you like to define several people in derogatory terms...which to anyone intelligent is not a sign of maturity let alone intelligence...expect to be called out on it when you dish it out...I've never called you racist or any of the terms you just posted...I will say you are a person who sensationalizes any form of disagreement with your views though and you seem to fall back on your age as a talking point which just doesn't make sense in a civil discussion. I've asked you a question since you've used ageism as a talking point..what have you accomplished at 26? What has your debate in this thread accomplished? I have many friends here who are right wing Trump supporters...I don't give a shit if you are or not....my oldest son is a card carrying NRA Trump voting conservative...I love him anyway...you shouldn't assume people have closed minds because they may disagree with you...that's having a closed mind
At 26, I run a construction company with my father. Not something I love to do but very good money. You can think what you want of me, that's fine. If you or anybody else here met me in person, 100 percent you would like me. I backed off from this forum, too much stupid shit being repeated over and over. Probably was a mistake to engage in this one. I am smart. I am young. I don't claim to know everything. I have room to grow as does everybody else. However I have pretty firm views at this point and strong opinions. I don't know how anything I said was derogatory, maybe I missed it. My debate as well as barfos have done nothing. Neither has most of these threads. Nobody gets anywhere with each other here. So yes, it's pointless and stupid
 
to be respected...that's a start
I respect you, i just don't know what angle you are coming at most times. I don't respect barfo or dviss. At all. Certain other members here. I just don't because I can see through the bullshit and so can others

Have you ever thought that some of those other people see through your bull shit as well? I always learned that let others sell your virtues as when one has to toot his own horn it makes you wonder if that horn should really be tooted.

Riverman is the best of the best. I probably respect him at least as much as Sly and I think the world of Sly.

Have a beer with you? I know all of us would seriously love sharing a beer with you. If I know anything, I know that.

Do you wanna toot my horn?

He's got years and years to learn and change. I used to be a staunch Conservative Republican. I even attended a YAF (Young Americans for Freedom) meeting. Now look at me.

If we want to guide him in a positive way and be productive rather than counter productive, our feedback must be acceptable and it's going to take time. While I'm always tempted to rush it, I'm feel certain that low and slow is the way to go.

Cup, you know I like and respect you, always have, so I implore you to be patient with this very nice young man on my behalf. He's young. Do you remember being young? I do and I've had a lot to learn, unfortunately a lot of it was via the school of hard knocks.

thank you Lanny...very kind of you...unfortunately I'll never drink alcohol again...

Is that because you are a brain washed antifa supporter?

Well, if you don't try to learn, you won't learn. I learned something from you in this thread. You mentioned 3 professors who are apparently exceptions to your usual view of professors being somewhat more evil than Satan. Only one of them I'd ever heard of, so I looked the other two up. So, I learned something about them and their views. So I don't think it was pointless and stupid.

Similarly, I learned something from DaLincolnJones in another thread today, about an incident with Brennan in 2012. I haven't completely figured out what it is I've learned on that one yet, but it's something to look into further.

Why don't you word things like this then instead of always trying to win and sounds arrogant towards me. i don't get it. You could have a level headed response like this but instead you are constantly trying to get a rise out of me and it's been like that for a while and at times you definitely have and got me to say dumb shit but at this point you just confuse me so I don't know

Oh my God, don't let him think that. I'll be number one on his enemies list.

Actually, I try not to be associated with very many groups. The only bumper sticker I ever recall having was one which supported the bringing back of our MIAs and dead servicemen. That was back toward the end of the Vietnam war. As soon as you put some bumper sticker or window sticker supporting something, someone who feels strongly against your belief is going to key your car, slash the tires or break a window.

At present, I have disabled Veteran license plates and an Oregon State University license plate holder and nothing else. I'm contemplating putting on an Anyone But Trump bumper sticker 'cause there are a lot of us and I feel so strongly about it.

Skip the sticker, you, no doubt will find the one goof in Lake O, and have him jack up your rig.
 
Do you wanna toot my horn?

I will toot when I see something worth tooting, but as you have probably seen with my Trump posts, I am not a fan of people with inflated egos. Ratcheting it down would be my advice.

thus the reason I gave him some advice.

Lanny you’re a good dude with some cool stories but for the last time I’m not a conservative. I don’t associate with either party. I don’t like trump. Didn’t like Hillary or Bernie. Hate politics. I don’t think I’m counter productive, but I think debating anything on here with the same people over and over is a lost cause. I am gonna stop doing that. It doesn’t get anywhere for one and it seems people twist my words and make up their own context for how I say it and what my intent is and what I mean. It’s fine. Like I said 100 percent the same people who have an issue with me in person would like me but I’m not searching for that. It is what it is.

I didn't mean to imply that you were a Republican, at least not consciously. But it does seem that you tip that way more often than the other way.

I understand how it can be viewed that way. I think the reasoning is this forum has a lot of people from the left and a couple are kinda ultra progressive left. I usually have strong opinions against that so then it seems as if I’m conservative. Really I just have views from the left and right I agree with and views from both sides I also disagree with.
