great comment

An endless comedy.

I do read them and they are some of the best in the subforum in my opinion. It's just that I tend to appropriate and retask argument rather than synthesize it when it seems erroneous over its own aims. Competition rather than consensus. You know how it is.

I read them, and typically have no trouble understanding them. However, intentionally obtuse people don't want to understand, so therein lies your (our) difficulty.

Well, there is a right to contract.

Oh my, my, Larkin... the PaCE sub looks like a Superfund site. Please tell me they've issued you proper safety gear for such a place. Although, it might be the perfect setup for a Troma movie. The Toxic Moderator!

think of them as little pause buttons. [and i, love pausing]

Thank you. It's something that I haven't seen the talking heads address. I figure that an internal conlfict produced by a group's own ideals is something that will not be discussed openly. Its resolution would require accepting a poor outcome or compromising those ideals. Assuming that the compromise would be the best thing to do, it isn't likely due to the loss of points in the political game.

i'm beginning to see derp as spinelessness itself a hydra.

No need to apologize. I frequently make such faux pas, especially online. It's not entirely your fault that you can't read my mind...

She's out almost every night at bars and I'm losing respect for her because of it. We have a trip next week, probably won't work out for long past that.

Because externalities imposed on public goods by for profit industries don't count.

Thanks. Clearly not making any impression on the OP, but I'm not really surprised by that.

Wow. I've never read any other poem quite like this one. And I read another on the website that I liked even more, so I'll definitely read more later.

I don't know about Larkin, I will check. (By the way I meant to say it was an "useless" question, obviously, not "useful"...)

Useful question but I meant to ask... is it an i at the beginning of your name, or an L ? It confuses me

Double post here hon.

interesting, but i don't think that was it. i am both interested and NOT interested in everyone and everything. you know? detached.
