I get it.... Jeordam Send a noteboard - 26/09/2017 09:00:35 PM

And know quite often that can be the case....a motivational type of saying. But I would wager that more often then not, those words can and will have a lasting effect. Typically the more value the person has in your life, the more powerful the words.

However in this day and age, the repetition of those words by a stranger (or group of strangers) have a cumulative effect (see: those who commit suicide from on-line exclusive bullying). Also, in this day and age an "accusation" can often be treated as fact.

You said something similar a while back. And really, I just don't get it. Legolas - 21/09/2017 07:52:31 PM 621 Views
Oh, and just to add... Legolas - 21/09/2017 07:55:35 PM 523 Views

In the immortal words of Dennis Leary "We got the bombs" Who cares if Iran is the adult in the room? Cannoli - 22/09/2017 11:22:43 PM 531 Views
He's right on socialism Tom - 25/09/2017 12:42:26 AM 476 Views
What about market socialism? Coops are decently popular. Ocean Spray is doing fine. *NM* Ghavrel - 25/09/2017 01:28:19 AM 279 Views
Ocean Spray is not a socialist venture in any way that I can see. Tom - 25/09/2017 01:45:44 AM 539 Views
Sure, by the original meaning of the word. Legolas - 25/09/2017 05:22:50 PM 487 Views
People misuse words all the time (cf. ironic). That's their problem. Tom - 25/09/2017 07:25:55 PM 497 Views
I'm making the argument... Legolas - 26/09/2017 07:12:56 PM 570 Views
Socialists are taking it back aerocontrols - 26/09/2017 08:03:39 PM 510 Views

It's an interesting idea. Ghavrel - 27/09/2017 02:19:19 AM 483 Views
Sounds like Singapore to me. *NM* aerocontrols - 27/09/2017 02:33:06 AM 264 Views
See, I wouldn't call Singapore democratic. Ghavrel - 27/09/2017 05:03:14 AM 425 Views

I think that's a weakness of your spectrum argument, though. Ghavrel - 27/09/2017 11:06:16 PM 403 Views
the non military is the further stretch random thoughts - 27/09/2017 02:16:03 PM 481 Views

Almost missed this reply, hiding down here. aerocontrols - 27/09/2017 09:40:41 PM 433 Views
Uh. You say no, but what follows makes it sound like yes? Legolas - 27/09/2017 11:42:11 PM 528 Views
You're again making an idiotic argument Tom - 27/09/2017 07:25:36 PM 491 Views
Which you then did your best to prove? Thank you for that, by the way. Legolas - 27/09/2017 09:13:28 PM 527 Views
No, socialist is socialist. What is so hard about that? Tom - 28/09/2017 05:05:27 AM 452 Views

I made the mistake of bothering to try reading a New York Times article Tom - 29/09/2017 12:38:07 AM 640 Views
It was a brilliant speech all around, and you don't understand Trump based on those comments. Tom - 21/09/2017 08:32:29 PM 500 Views
He's doing jack shit. He tells people everything they want to hear, then blames Congress... Legolas - 21/09/2017 08:57:36 PM 540 Views
That's absolutely not what he's doing Tom - 22/09/2017 09:54:34 PM 487 Views
If you say so. Legolas - 25/09/2017 05:31:00 PM 527 Views
I can see where you're coming from... Jeordam - 21/09/2017 08:50:03 PM 517 Views
Oh, that people voted for him over Clinton, I can understand well enough. Legolas - 21/09/2017 09:02:50 PM 434 Views
Of course I'm going to defend him.. Jeordam - 21/09/2017 09:19:32 PM 461 Views

Trump lost credibility to me on the 'anti-PC' / 'pro free speech' issue aerocontrols - 26/09/2017 07:54:06 PM 421 Views
Yes, the "snowflake" accusation is rather hard to take seriously from people upset about the flag. *NM* Ghavrel - 26/09/2017 08:24:29 PM 223 Views
Let's hold the phone here for a moment.... Jeordam - 26/09/2017 09:07:07 PM 408 Views

I saw a statistic somewhere in an article about the controversy... Legolas - 27/09/2017 06:47:04 PM 425 Views
80% of the players may be black but a similar percentage of the fans are white random thoughts - 28/09/2017 12:59:57 PM 439 Views
Makes sense. But if 80 percent of your players is taking the other position... Legolas - 28/09/2017 06:43:23 PM 724 Views
