Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day

I don't think you want to go making enemies at this stage, bud. Remember that scene in The Dark Knight when that Wayne Enterprises accountant discovered all the money going into secret projects and deduced the identity of Batman? When Morgan Freeman said "Let me get this straight. You think that your client, one of the wealthiest, most powerful men in the world, is secretly a vigilante who spends his nights beating criminals to a pulp with his bare hands; and your plan is to blackmail this person? Good luck."
Like that.
Besides which, he only has to make me lose my contact lenses and that's me knackered. Lots of nasty surprises come at you out of a blur.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

That's why I told poet to go for the eyes, because if your buddy frodo got chopped on your watch I know no one is safe.

fr0d0 got chopped on everyone's watch. It was a joint decision.
You have a point you want to make?

If you go back and read the pertinent posts, Drich, you'll see that I actually abstained from voting on the ban issue and in fact I had offered several less drastic options short of a ban. So if you want to intimate that I had some authority over fr0d0's hammering, I'm gonna drop six and a half tons of evidence on top of your pointy little head until the only way you leave the thunder dome is in an envelope.

Why would one want to do that, when one can simply jump to the conclusion that one wants to see?

Maybe these two are related?

Congratimifications, LP. You look good in red
If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!
Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.
Dead wrong. The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.
Quote:Some people deserve hell.
I say again: No exceptions. Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it. As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.

Oh, fr0d0 stopped being my 'buddy' almost a year ago, when he broke my trust. All I did was removing myself from any decisions, good or bad, regarding him, because as he claimed after all my warnings "you are biased". I removed my bias and things went just as I predicted it would eventually would.
Funny that when someone's an ass, just about everyone reaches the same conclusion.

Well there isn't anywhere else to go but gone for good when fr0d0 had gotten himself temp banned twice in one year already--and was out there making a royal ass of himself.
Pun intended.

* Violet wishes she'd gotten ahead of fr0d0 falling for good
Part of me really thinks that if I'd been just a LITTLE attentive of this place.... that I could have stopped that before it got out of control. The rest of me thinks that part of me overvalues what she can provide in emotional support to anyone.
That part of me really wants to tell the rest of me to fuck the fuck off.
