That’s it. It’s officially over. I am no longer Frank.
See y’alls. Enjoy my moniker if you want it so bad.

For once, I understand what you are talking about.
It’s aggravating as Hell
And, no, I have never, on my word, signed on as you.
I believe you Titty, but DAMN it drives me crazy!! BTW, did you get the lotions we talked about?
What the… ?
Look everyone! I found Towertone!!!

Liberal Losers!
gzero,
1. Why do you doubt that I get news from Aljazeera? Do you know me?
I visit the Aljazeera English site daily, as well as numerous Israeli sites. I also look at http://www.ahmadinejad.ir to see what our friend the warden…er I mean the President of Iran has to say on his blog. Did you even know that he had a blog? I view all of these news sites daily as I like to know what the enemies are thinking. Except Ahmadinejad, I only go there occasionally. So you may or may not be better informed than I.
2. Most people, regardless of left, right, centrist, gay or fascist tend to get their news from sources that agree with their sensibilities; not just American right wingers. Most people are sheep and need a healthy dose of preaching to the choir to make themselves feel good. If you don’t believe that try reading some of the ridiculous post on this forum when Apple is attacked for some reason.
3. You’re married to a German woman “and” two mixed-race children? Thankfully marrying children is illegal where I live. So is polygamy, though I don’t think the state should dictate that one. I’ll go out on a limb here though and say I understand what you meant, a luxury that you didn’t afford me. I could have just said “If you can’t form your statements properly, don’t post them in the first place”. But then I’d be an asshole like you.
And so you know, black guys that dig white chicks can be just as racist as I am. Racism takes on many forms. You don’t fool me.
BTW, I don’t like white chicks. I only go for the hot Latin, Mediterranean, ME and Asian. I do like a few black Ethiopian women too. So much for the Aryan master race.

Jerry T,
“You’re married to a German woman “and” two mixed-race children? Thankfully marrying children is illegal where I live.”
Wow, how long did it take you to think of that one?
My statement was obvoiusly a typo.
If you have to resort to calling me such names (asshole) in defense of your position, you’ve lost the arguement.
I called you a racist because you write like a racist, even in your feeble attempts to be witty. It actually fascinates me that you seem to be proud of your ignorance, in such a public place. That takes balls. Of course, everyone is a badass on the Internet; in “real life” you’re probably a punk. Oh well.
Word of advice: get someone else to write your material; your current schtick sucks.
In any case, it was a pleasure playing Blog Tag with you. Hope to read your racist words of wisdom (oxymoron) again soon one day.
“88”
Your IQ?
Jerry T,
Just a couple of things before I go:
1. yes, I know the Iranian president has a blog. You’d be surprised at the number of world leaders that have blogs nowadays.
2. I’ve been reading this site for a number of years, so I’m well aware of how things can get a little silly around here (this thread is a good example)
3. People are sheep, and are easy to control with regard to the info they choose to receive, this much we can agree upon.
4. Getting lessons on racism from a racist is kind of like getting child rearing tips from a pedophile. Thanks, but no thanks.
gzero,
Was your statement obviously a typo?
Kind of like to me it was obvious that I didn’t mean that the US has more blacks per capita than a mostly black nation. You know, because when discussions of first world industrialized nations are being talked about S. Africa figures so prominently. Where do they fit into the G7, G8? I forget…
And I love how you say I loose the argument by calling you a name.
Then in the very next breath, you call me a punk.
I guess you lost. But that’s okay, I love you anyway.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Jerry T.
“Was your statement obviously a typo? “
Yes.
“Kind of like to me it was obvious that I didn’t mean that the US has more blacks per capita than a mostly black nation. You know, because when discussions of first world industrialized nations are being talked about S. Africa figures so prominently. Where do they fit into the G7, G8? I forget…”
Again (for the slower among us) your question was not “which non-black industrialized nation”, but “which industrialized nation”. I answered your question as it was posed.
“And I love how you say I loose the argument by calling you a name.”
Notice the typo (“lose”, not “loose”)?
“Then in the very next breath, you call me a punk.”
Actually it was about 20 breaths…

There’s a difference between “you’re probably a punk” (which infers that I don’t know if you are in fact a punk or not) and “But then I’d be an asshole like you” (which infers that you know for sure that I’m an asshole, which you do not)
“I guess you lost.”
Actually, I didn’t, but I won’t gloat about it.
“But that’s okay, I love you anyway. Happy Thanksgiving!”
Same to you.
Ignorance is bliss and it kills too.
98% of you out there support terrorism every freak’n day you fill your tanks with GAS…
Without doubt FOX News (if it can be called that) is conservative Christian propaganda. AL JAZEERA may or may not be conservative or liberal Islamic propaganda.
One thing I am almost certain about is the vast majority of you don’t know because you have never read or watched enough of it to form an honest opinion.
Only you know the truth.
So please, end it already
RoninCyber,
What am I supposed to fill my tank with?
My Yukon only takes GAS. Believe me at today’s prices I’d gladly fill it with water if that would work.
BTW, I’ve got my eye on a new Escalade, I hope they run on water power…cuz I hate terrorist and high prices.
MW/dead…creepy magic word, but I wish the terrorist were all dead
At least they chose Macs. Imagine what damage they could cause to the USA if they had half a brain and chose PCs.
Just how damaging can home movies and snapshots be?
Sorry. Feet, why do I need them if I have wings to fly?
