GD2004 can go fuck itself
God damn. It's like listening to a multiple-personality psychotic (who happens to be an asshole besides) talk to him/her/itself.

If I'm going to masturbate, be damned sure I'll do it alone.

Yeesh.

2. Problem, Will?
If your beef is with the defeatism, I agree, but it's not only on GD2004.

4. I'm amazed at how 90% of the topics on page one...
...are about that little girl crying.

Good lord. Maybe I don't have the number of posts to criticize, but I'm sick of everyone acting like a spaz.

5. Sometimes being alone is the only way
to find some relief from all of the discordant voices.

7. Will the problem is, it literally seems like a third of the threads are
from disruptors. It's a really big problem. I'm wondering if DU should perhaps change their rules regarding the criteria to pull the trigger on disruptors. Not my board, but it's just about impossible to read with all the bullshit threads.

8. Littlegirlgate has one advantage...
when someone posts the umpteenth post about the little girl, showing it from different angles (back, and to the left. Back, and to the left...Baaack, and to the left), well let's just say you can be pretty sure they spend their time under bridges harassing billy goats.

11. Hey Will, can you do a story on the lady arrested.....?
I am trying to blitz this Gold Mom being arrested. Yeah she interrupted Pickles speech but Bush interrupted her life.
By the way, I'm with you on the pessimism ! People expect Kerry/Edward to do this thing alone. We have to do our part and showing THE BFEE for what they are is a start !

If for no other reason her son died, and my husband is messed up for life from Nam, we would like to think it was for Freedom to dissent !
Thanks !

Edited on Fri Sep-17-04 01:26 AM by jpgray
Preaching to people on an internet message board is near the most tiresome thing one can do, and here I went and did it. :dunce:

edit: Based on my spelling and grammar, I need to go to bed.

22. Don't blame DU -- things are weird all over
My son posts regularly on a role-playing game message board. He says he's started having to avoid their "Tangency" forum (the equivalent of our Lounge) because it's filling up with nothing but nasty political arguments. People there are calling for a separate "Politics" forum so that Tangency can go back to its proper functions of advice to the lovelorn and cat photos.

When even the gamer geeks are weirding out over the election, can you be surprised that DU-ers are climbing the walls?

If one of the most of the most important elections in history wasn't involved this would make a great comedy.

27. I agree that times are tough there, but people are scared
They have been since that horrible, nasty Republican convention. As you have said, it is almost already too late. We cannot survive four more years of Bush* and the neocons. Sounds like a '50s group. This photo of John Kerry, from his website, surrounded by a vast sea of supporters, gives me hope. And they don't have to sign a loyalty oath to hear him speak. I cannot imagine four more years of darkness and war, so am scared myself, but am encouraged by small things like CNN polls and e-mails from friends. DU needs to hang in there.:grouphug:

30. I've been there once in the last month.
Earlier this week, I dropped in and posted something positive. It had nothing to do with Freepers, lurkers, or DUers attacking each other for either loving Kerry too much or not loving him enough. Or anyone engaged in self-flaggelation over the campaign, the electorate, or the outcome of the election.

It sank like a rock.

Life is too short to spend it that way, imo.

31. The assitude in GD04
is largely why I stopped posting in the political fora altogether and retreated to the Lounge. The stupidity of the Primaries battles in there turned me off of topical chat for a good, long while. When we know who the next president is and GD04 becomes a useless relic, I'll probably go back to GD to discuss news and policy, but for now, I much prefer to answer pointless polls, slag on pop music, CONFESS!, CAPTION and/or Ask (someone) Anything.
