why don't you hooligans take your political bullshit back to the politics thread?
jesus....is your only purpose on this board to antagonize riffy? if so, like joey, you need some new material.
Hmmm...here's what I posted. Shall we read it? Yes we shall!
"Since Mr. Riffhard has repeatedly referred to an "affair" (is that even the right word?) between non-married adults well past the age of consent as "lurid", wouldn't it perhaps be fitting for him to remove the Keef quote from his sig? You know the one -
'We're not old men.We don't bother about petty morals.'
At least change it to reflect reality.
'We ARE old men. We're all about petty morals, as long as it reflects badly on anyone we disagree with.' "
This "political" post which you complained about - please point out the "politics" in it, if you would. I'm having trouble seeing any. Hell, it even looks as though it has Stones content.
Maybe you're confused - I WAS responding to a post on a non-political topic, and although someone had dragged politics into it, it wasn't me. I was actually careful NOT to address the political content. After all, there is a thread for that.
I think if you check, you'll see that I post on other topics as well, if that is indeed a prerequisite for passing muster at RO.
Antagonizing Mr Riffhard is not my only "purpose" - if, again, a "purpose" is a prerequisite for posting at RO. If it is, there are quite a few posters whose purpose I would like to know.
I suspect that you are singling me out because of the rampant anti-Christian bias which my colleague Mr Riffhard has sussed out around these parts. I quote:
"I gotta laugh at your idiotic bias. Look pal, I'm not the one here that is being a bigot towards those who follow the Christian faith. You might want to look at the vile shit that some here have spewed about those of us who do practice our faith. Victim?! My ass! I just haven't a problem standing up to bigots! That you won't be honest about what some here are perpetrating is disgusting."
(This post will be moved to the politics thread, where it belongs, in an hour or so.)
