Where is Commander Birdsong when we need him (or his present incarnation)?Well mine has nothing to do with Scientology as a background but rather a personal joke on using "fowl" language.

I think you made a point here. I also thought ex-scios were mostly righties.Second paragraph: Funny, I'd have said the majority of ex-scios were righty. But maybe that's because the righties are more vocal about their views. The Trump thread (which I admit I've only lightly sampled) seems mainly about how Trump is doing great things or is being unjustly attacked and how awful Obama and Hillary are.
Geez man...didn't you see my apology?Well, what a fucking hypocrite you are. You go on about 'folks being nice and respectful' and yet, when I merely pointed out that I was unhappy at you quoting Hubbard here on esmb, you told me to go and fuck myself, something no one has done in all my years of chatting on this message board.
I wouldn't trust you further than I could spit, and hell will freeze over before I post on your theety-weety fucking thread.

Great, here we are on an ex scientologists message board and somebody is quoting Hubbard at us. WTF
By the way, I'm known as a bit of a grammar Nazi and pedant around here, so let me put you straight. First of all, sentences begin with a capital letter, so that should have been 'So what if you don't like it GFY'. Secondly, if I were you I'd have put a comma after the word what, so it would read, 'So what, if you don't like it GFY'. Finally, I really really think another comma wouldn't go amiss after the word 'it', so it would read 'So what, if you don't like it, GFY'.so what if you don't like it GFY
Spoken like a true lady & prime example of your fair sexHmmmm, I might ... and I might not.
Um...look if you're going to post what was said between us...please do so accurately:Here is my original post in its entirety:
I'm sorry, but I fail to see any 'names' that you accuse me of calling you.
And this was your charming response:
I'm not the 'forgive and forget' type. If you think your response was justified, so be it, I'm not going to argue the toss with you and I've got nothing more to say on this or any other subject to you.
As much as I would like to see how a Pew survey on that plays out...maybe best left alone.I think you made a point here. I also thought ex-scios were mostly righties.
LOL!I don't want to seem pedantic Dagwood, but I was puzzled by your phrase 'no harm, no fowl' so, not having come across it before and being vaguely interested in the English language, I looked it up. Apparently there is a similar phrase, but it's 'no harm, no foul'. Just thought you might like to know for future reference.
That cartoon would be funnier if the book was titled "You Cluck".
Recently I've only been able to be here on ESMB very briefly each day, so only typically following several threads at a time, if that.You might like my new thread "Just whatever you wanna" where you CAN freely talk about anything other than SCN...but (sorry) I did ask that there be no discussion about politics or religion only because the purpose of my creating this thread was for folks to have a place to have fun, be at ease, unwind - no heavy crap - no doom and gloom. Hope to see your posts there. TR
...there is nothing keeping anyone from starting a Hillary Thread or some equivalent....
Clinton is the very embodiment of politics as usual. She is so much a part of "the system" that she and her friends simply cannot conceive of anyone outside the system being taken seriously. That's why they were all surprised by Trump winning the election.The thing is, Hillary is just a straight ahead corrupt politician....
This thread would be funnier if was titled "No politics! ESMB is aboutscientologyfeather spitting!".
For me - he's a slow motion train wreck. The current US political madness is a real life soap opera replete with villains, con men, flim flam artists, obfuscation, porn stars, separated children and parents, rampant racism, a WWF bout between the Pres an the NFL, the world economy hanging on a string, yoyoing up and down at The Donald's fumbling, ineptness and warped world view, his trolling world leaders, love for despots, erasure of everything Obama, mucho fake news, his draining the swamp and refilling it with billionaire hucksters, lunatic Giuliani with his Truth isn't Truth rant - reminiscent of Hubbard's: "reality is what you agree it is" nonsense. Almost every day is a ho-hum crasher, only to end up lining the bottom of the twitter bird's cage, as the next gaffe, proclamation, juvenile name calling Tweet plasters the last over, and the attempts to reign him in only incenses him, resulting in his doubling down. At the rate he's losing "All the best people" he may end up running the country by himself.Why? He is the end result of political correctness gone mad and now we need to ride this wave in order to (hopefully) regain a more balanced political climate.
