Aidan: vpb: If you are Gay and a Republican politician holds you down to forcibly do something to you it probably isn't going to be cutting your hair.

No kidding.

I feel like Gen X (at a guess?) is one of the first generations to go "Whoa... You know that manly thing you're doing? Really... really gay, dude. Just saying."

It seems like whenever something like this comes up, some older folks act like it's the sort of thing that happened all the time.



CSB:
I remember in high school our gym class got separated into 2 groups. One did step aerobics, and the other did wrestling. We got to pick which group we were in. Me and one other guy picked step, all the rest picked wrestling. One of my friends was teasing me a little later that step was kinda gay. I pointed out that while I was in the back of a room full of ladies in short shorts he was going to be rolling around on the floor with sweaty men. The look on his face was similar to the dejected Palin in the Palin v Biden meme.

If you can't remember assaulting someone, you probably didn't think it was a big deal

With so many reasons to attack Romney, why do you feel the need to herp and derp on this one?

High School kids are stupid. More at 11.

not a big deal assaulting some one? that is what you are going with?

Many of us were stupid in high school and still managed to never assault some one.


Heck, I spent so much time in the bathroom assaulting myself I didn't have the energy to go after anyone else. Apparently the Stormin' Mormon TM just doesn't fap enough, and frankly that's about as unAmerican as a hummus filled crepe in the shape of a swastika.

In '87, Huey released this, Fore, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip to be Square", a song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity, and the importance of trends, it's also a personal statement about the band itself.

Sounds to me like he was bragging about beating down a chick to show the other thugs at his school how tough he was. Most likely he was jacked up on cocaine and rocking his standard black leather jacket at the time - he's still proud about the drug use you know. You can just imagine him punching this poor girl over and over again while he sneered, his teeth yellowed. from years of smoking cigarettes. I assume with a copy of subversive Saul Alinsky communist literature in his breast pocket for good measure.

Death_Poot: "just curious, are you paid to defend bullies, or is this recreational trolling, or are you just a sociopath or what?"

Kinda curious about you and some of the other alts in here as well.

Not defending anyone, I'm just saying, like the initial time I posted, that stuff like from this 40+ years ago ought not to have a bearing in political campaigns today, for candidates in either party.

If it's not trolls, there's some thin skinned children in here, for sure


Way to not quote me. Very brave of you. So you can respond and hope that i don't notice? You douche.

There are certain hallmark behaviors of psychopaths. Torturing animals, lack of empathy, fire setting, wetting the bed, etc. Romney shows two of those in his past. I think his childhood is profoundly relevant to his candidacy, as it is indicative of his character and who he became. Then again, maybe your "no mercy" attitude toward bullied children is a result of no one ever sticking up for you until you ended up hospitalized. I don't know. maybe you resent the world because it farked with you so hard when you were a kid, and now you want to take it back to whoever you can. Like you said, I don't know you and you don't know me. I do know that you're trying to minimize a truly sadistic action by a major party nominee for the highest office in the world. I figure you're either paid to do it, you are sadistic and hateful yourself, or you're doing it for the lulz cause you fancy yourself some Heath Ledger Joker type of personality. Are you a snivelling bootlicker in real life or just on the internet? These are the questions I am trying to figure out by asking you directly.

Most kids are guilty of bullying another at least some point in their lives (for whatever reason). I just think that it's ridiculous that this "gotcha" bullshiat has sunk this far.

Yeah but the other kids, who were involved feel bad about and many have apologized for it. Romney doesn't even remember, thinks it's normal fun and doesn't give a shiat.

He seems like a sociopath unable to empathize with other human beings.

Follow up, Romney apologizes for what he doesn't recall doing

"Back in high school, I did some dumb things and if anybody was hurt by that or offended, obviously I apologize for that," Romney said in a live radio interview with Fox News Channel personality Brian Kilmeade. Romney added: "I participated in a lot of hijinks and pranks during high school and some might have gone too far and for that, I apologize."

Romney said the incident involving cutting the hair of John Lauber, whom some students suspected was gay, occurred "a long time ago."

"I don't remember that incident," Romney said, laughing. "I certainly don't believe that I thought the fellow was homosexual. That was the furthest thing from our minds back in the 1960s, so that was not the case."

Asked specifically about having interrupting a closeted gay student in English class, Gary Hummel, by shouting, "Atta girl!" Romney said, "I really can't remember that."
