Poll question: People on DU who don't know you, yet finish your thoughts and hidden agendas behind your posts
Just put two of them on ignore. Fuck that noise. People who don't know me and make accusations about the meaning between my words can bite me.

4. I can't link to the specific thread...
...because I'm gonna respect the DU policy about "calling out" specific DUers, even if they got in your face, but...

...it's what happens when something is posted and a DUer responds with an accusation of racism or sexism or some other "ism" that's judgmental but indirect at the same time. They'll ask a question that encompasses the accusation but don;t have the courage to come right out and ask a direct question.

Some people DO..."why are you posting this"...which I feel I NEVER need to answer...but other times it's an "observation" or "question" that makes big assumptions.

5. YES...and that is EXACTLY how I replied to this most recent person.
I basically said I know exactly what I meant, and you do not know me, and if you think I meant something else, it's YOUR issue, not mine.

So you nailed it.

:patriot:

6. Well, on SOME days, I DO consider it to be sport...
...but as "good netizens" on DU, we're expected to draw the line at some pint, and if something really pisses us off, hand it off the the Mods and let them do their thing.

Which they do. I'll give them credit for that.

And on some days, when some douchebag pokes me with a stick, I'll poke back...but more often than not it feels like "taking the bait," so I don't.

But in all the time I've been here, I don;t think I've ever climbed up anyone's ass, especially if it's the first time I've read one of their posts and replied.

Seems like some people just surf around until they find a comfy place to lift their leg. I'm not one of them.

:toast:

8. It's good for me. I need someone to finish my thoughts for me.
Even typing this is rather taxing.

9. I agree.
Yesterday someone called me a "fucking LIAR", probably because I wouldn't join in the bash-Obama-24/7 chorus. :eyes:
