And I'd be willing to bet that most of the stupid liberals wouldn't even want to wave a live gun around without taking a gun safety course or something first and learning not to do that...

...which kinda makes them sound not so stupid, don't you think?

>:)

You're failed attempt at being a "smart liberal" has just failed. You _NEVER_ wave a live gun around. Ever. ;)

Take that gun safety course. I recommend taking the Concealed Handgun License glass, if you can. Damn shame if you live in one of the states overrun by libtards that won't let you get a CHL.

Lenny_da_Hog: You what!?

Uh. Alaska is the most insane local politics in the country. It's why I love it so much! Jesus.

Wally Hickel winning as an AIP.... Theresa Obermeyer running for *anything* (and *everything*), the oil and real estate influences, the Prevites, the hunters vs. subsistence lobbies, the GOP fighting for the Socialist Fund, the fundamentalists...

The place is out and out nuts.

Dude, I grew up in Georgia. Trust me, it was relatively sane. I got here in '96, and Knowles was halfway sane. However, keep in mind that I don't live in the interior.

LordJiro: So can you see *any* posts on Fark?

Just getting started. But contrary to popular belief, there are still people who post here with erudite, constructive thoughts.

Was once a day that the average mouth breather didn't understand how to post on a messageboard (dare I invoke "newsgroup") but now they've turned even FARK into an AOL chat romper room.

Wow, how did I get so crabby this early in the morning?

Crown_of_Shoes: but must couch their existence in the context of television and movies, and go through great lengths to do so.

I agree with you and your reasoning but...

I have to be honest here, I am very guilty of throwing pop culture references down all the time. I do try to do my own. I always post pics of movies and TV .

I still think that "libs" straight jacket is still funny and the variants it has sprung "Kos!" for example.

Pac man pie chart... I like that one.


I am very guilty of being a moran it seems. Oh well, it's bliss.

You have to admit, though, seeing a place that sprouts the likes of left-wing pro-oil and pro-gun folks had to strike you as a little odder than most....

I've got an old Rolling Stone magazine where Ted Nugent says that right before a concert he likes to to pick a fifteen year old girl out of the audience to give him head behind the drum set. Odd he's become the poster boy of the Republican Party when he sounds an awful lot like bill Clinton.

/still thinks SEACC is made up of domestic terrorists

To listen to anyone discussing anything in any Denny's or Village Inn in Anchorage, you'd think they're all domestic terrorists. Anything from fisheries management to declaring a state insect is met with, "Time fer a revolution! Getchur guns!"

...of course, by the time the waitress brings the pie menu, they've usually moved onto other things....

Fark liberals would love VT, VT hates anything about capitalism or America, but for some reason you can carry a concealed weapon anywhere here without a permit.

Just bought an M1A to target practice with, cannot wait. Wish I could put a gun rack in my Mustang.

/Alaska's the same way....

desynch: I'm willing to bet most of you stupid liberals would do the same thing, being that most of you have probably never even held a gun.... except for laser tag and duck hunt (but that doesn't count).

I'm a stupid liberal who had more firepower in my home than most NRA members back when I lived in the stupid liberal country of Denmark whose stupid liberal military ingrained firearms safety deeper into my synapses than any stupid liberal Concealed Handgun sit-down class will ever do. I have even taught stupid liberal recruits firearms safety and acted as stupid liberal range safety officer for stupid liberal live firing exercises.

I still happen to think the firearms fetish as practiced among some in the US is stupid.

Crown of Shoes

Wow, how did I get so elitist this early in the morning?

FTFY.

/lighten up, Francis.

I listened to some blowhard (Dan Caplis) on KHOW one night last week while stuck in traffic. He does a show with Mr. Spineless Pussy, who allows Dan to biatchslap him around most of the time.

Caplis pronounced "it's clear the Obama presidency has been a failure" early on in the show - it was maybe Wednesday (7/8).

SO, 6 months in, the "other side" has declared failure. Mind you, this was the same blowhard who lectured about all things "his side" - give it time.

Iraq - give it time. this won't fix in a day, month, maybe years

Remember Bush admitted early on that he had no plan for pulling out of Iraq - that would be up to the next president.

And yet, 6 months into Bama's reign, it's a failure.



//assholes are as bad as the "other side" biatching non-stop about Bushie & Co.
///WTF did you expect? It's "their" turn now.

Crown is in Portland where it WAS 10 AM. What part of reality are you from? Let me guess, the opposite part.

Crown_of_Shoes: I guess I should have said "Ignore" all the trolly types, not "ban," sorry. This is as good a time as every to biatch:

Things That May Get You Ignored by Crown_of_Shoes:

- insisting on making some cute "hot" statement after your hotlinked images, like this were 1999 and it made a farking difference.
- using the cliche "window seat please," especially after some harmless remark
- Terrible, pointless, everybody-was-thinking-it-but-you-posted-it puns, e.g. somebody gets decapitated and you cleverly state, "that's not way to get a head in life!" /window seat please!
- Blatant, empty trolling
- Condescending to flame wars with trolls, as if this sort of personal entertainment is the only function a message board serves.
- Political naivete, that is, demonizing a democrats or republicans in a manner that serves only the interests of those who profit on divisive social and wedge issues

And the biggest reason:

- Use of a worn-out FARK cliche. I'm done with it. You do it just once and you are ignored. Nobody think you are cool or FARK savvy because you "get" the inside "it's a streetlight" joke. You can post the derp derp derp terrier, for at least a few more months, but if you try the "it's a conspiracy" guy, you're gone.


/tough guy rant over.

Crown_of_Shoes just got added to my ignore list, 'cause if there's one thing I can't stand it's some high-strung, uptight farker in my interwebs.

Ooohh!!! GUNS!!!

Run and hide Liberal wimps!

I love that some Americans have racism so deeply imprinted in them that they are willing to support someone like Palin.

Pretend you are from another country, and race wasn't an issue for 10 seconds. If necessary, now is the time to take strong drugs in order to get you to that point.

Obama is a charismatic man who wants the best for American and is doing a pretty damn good job. He is obviously not perfect and will make mistakes along the way. But hell, Clinton made some small mistakes personally but took the country on an amazing upswing. Obama is also obviously quite smart and will be in a good position to make good choices.

Now look at Palin. She is borderline retarded. She can't speak for more than 10 seconds without having to revert to trying to sound cute and folksy with some sports or hick talk. This is a woman I wouldn't want controlling my local PTA let alone a state or being VP.

How the hell can you folks seriously defend her with such rigor? Is staying racist really that important?

I also never understood how people could defend GW Bush. He is an idiot, handed the control of the country to the wrong people who behind the scenes sacrificed the core principles of the country.

But instead of looking objectively at the situation, somehow you all get caught up in the Dems vs Reps debate. Who the fark cares what party is running the country - elect the best goddamn people who will do a good job and not destroy the economy.

Or just vote based on party and celebrity and the whole country can follow California's bankruptcy. Then you will realize this whole situation could have been avoided by spending 5 minutes of your life actually researching politicians and not listening to the horrifically skewed media.

I don't support Palin, but I also think that Obama's policy of burying the country in even more massive amounts of debt will be successful. It certainly isn't a "good choice."

Mr. Breeze: That and the media on the whole is heavily biased towards Obama to the point that we know everything about him right down to bowel movement size color frequency.

...because offering the woman an interview then letting her hoist herself on her own petard on national television was somehow intentionally done to support Obama? Did you even watch the Sawyer interview? No amount of editing or selective questioning (although I would say hardballing a dark horse vice presidential nominee, regardless of secondary characteristics like party affiliation, gender, education, or past political experience, is not just warranted but exactly what journalists ought to do) could put a silver lining on that woman. Not even Fox News could do it.

As far as Tina Fey goes...she's a comedian. It's her job to point out society's idiosyncrasies and dysfunctions for comedic effect. Saturday Night Live has been doing that for years, regardless of party or personal opinion (though to inconsistent levels of efficacy). If a public figure is a fool, it's a comedian's job to make a fool of them when nobody else will do it.

But people do take it personally when you call their beliefs akin to believing in Santa, and calling God a "sky-wizard". Is that any better than what a fundie would spew?"

Er....yes, as it's completely accurate. Evolution proponents are hard on creationists around here too, do you admonish them for being 'just as bad'? Probably not as you recognize one side to be entirely correct and the other to hold backwards, indefensible beliefs that are harming the country. It's the same for atheists and Christians.

Michael Jackson's death sold, but the coup in Honduras, continued missile tests from North Korea and renewed missile tests by the U.S., and the American military withdrawal from Baghdad didn't.
