Who should be the next president?

[Skull]

I guess I was more oblique than I thought then, Skull. I was referring to AHD's constant posting of scatological images, as if saying because he's uninterested in these topics (and don't feel bad, AHD, my five-year-old thinks poop jokes are the height of humor, too), it's fine to be intolerant and make fun of others who might be, and in general to imply anything anyone else has to say on them is worthy of a toilet.

lol I've sense you were referring to the 'toilet spam.'  Sorry I cannot control the 'toilet spam.' I do think it's interesting when this thread is not being used and it's falls a few lines below that AHD posts a 'toilet spam' (in a sense he's bumping the thread)...

It's a sort of would-be censorship via intimidation that reminded me of the Moral Majority.

I think the most annoying censorship is when a person told Rev that he/she didn't post on the tread but wants to lock it down.

There are plenty of forums here I have zero interest in and plenty of run-on threads that don't call me to participate in them, but I'm not so anal as to sit and post s**t jokes every time I am tired of someone's views. The sensible thing is to not click on a thread if it disturbs you; the polite thing is to comment intelligently; the boring thing is to keep including Butthead-level humor most of us grew out of about the time we learned what sex felt like.

I do agree and this happens to be the most civilized 'presidential' on the internet.  Even with the toilet gif's are fun to watch.

But, hey, far be it from me to try to stop a plumbing fetishist from getting his kicks, be it correcting someone's spelling, or displaying an apparent all-possessing fondness for toilets and defecating cats.

Everybody's got a thing, after all.

Sorry but please don't let it bother you. I look past the gif's :)

It's being called a sell-out.

No you don't.  They're fun.  You said.  You said.  And you're right.  I'm totally bumping the thread. 


ER, you make my day!  This is for you m'dear:  

[Skull]

 And you're right.  I'm totally bumping the thread. 

It's nice to be right 

[Allhallowsday]

 And you're right.  I'm totally bumping the thread.

You da man.

With respect, Skull I was the person who sent Rev a PM and asked if the thread could be locked. The reason for this is I detest seeing people I consider family - all of you, in other words - arguing over something as trivial as politics. We should rather be arguing over the technical merits of Manos The Hands Of Fate or the pro South African view in films like Lethal Weapon 2 or Cry Freedom.

And also another explanation: politics are trivial to me because I lived in a Communist country for six years: that is enough torture for a lifetime and I loathe censorship of any kind.

I do wish there was something awesome to talk about but recent movies had not been that awesome or worthy to talk about... I had not even see the New Star Wars movie... And I had not been seeing much action at my other message boards since Pokemon Go came out... (My phone sucks because it keeps crashing out of the Pokemon Go)

Actually, Skull, picking a Republican (if she could find one willing to switch sides) would not be a bad choice at all for Hillary in terms of poaching potential Trump voters. The only thing is, I don't think she should take any gambles---she's ahead solidly in the polls, no need to rock the boat.

Sorry but I don't trust the polls. I think I would trust Facebook likes more.

Hillary Clinton

4,050,960

https://www.facebook.com/hillaryclinton/likes

Donald J. Trump

8,328,253

https://www.facebook.com/DonaldTrump/likes


And if you look at the Likes Trump is gaining speed and Hillary is dropping - I wonder if the night club shooting has anything to do with it...


-------------------------------

Like I said, I NEVER TRUSTED the polls... (and I said that a dozen times on the other thread). So I wouldn't be surprised that Hillary would pull a republican out of her ass. :)

I've posted this on the VP tread a month or so ago... Lets see the likes:

Hillary
Old  = 4,050,960
Today=4,386,361
-------------------
Gain =  338,401

Trump
Old =  8,328,253
Today=9,101,937
-------------------
Gain =  773,684



I don't know what the polls are really saying because Trump has gain more then twice the number of likes than Hillary (comparing to the last time I've posted the thread) and Trump still has 2x more total likes!!!!

In a group I belong to, which will remain nameless, a person in a position of authority and a member got involved in a name-calling scuffle over the term "all lives matter" which ended up with the member being kicked out of the group, and the rest of the group angry about it. Major drama.

I just hope that kind of thing never happens here. Talking about the issues like adults is fine, as long as it doesn't turn into personal attacks---but it ALWAYS seems to turn into personal attacks. Andrew didn't want politics on this board because he wanted to foster a certain culture.

We've survived without a major blow-up so far, but I do feel obligated to constantly step in and try to de-escalate, which is annoying to me and to everyone else. Participants want the thread so it stays open.

If only Lemmy was still alive.....

Because Lemmy would support Trump and all this silliness would be over 


I meant Lemmy should be president if he was still alive. No way he'd support Trump cause he's very anti establishment / government / politicians. How can you not worship a guy who was in probably the best rock band ever, smoked three packs of cigarettes a day and drinks a half gallon of whiskey a day. The choice should've been obvious.

The problem with politics - everybody thinks they are voting for the correct thing... but only one is the correct thing.


Don't worry... My rant is never directed at the people posting on this message board.

Please note that Trump has been running the anti-establishment/government/politician ticket....

Not only that Lemmy would support Trump but Lemmy would be an awesome Judge pick or maybe secretary of state :)
