granted, but i doubt that's the case here.

SCNDLS said:

you really think that is the case here? it's such a non-issue that i am aamzed people seem to think it even reaches a level of rebellion, let alone a bid for reality tv show from a crazy fucktard, the way balloon dad was.

cborgman said:

Oh, wait, now you're back?

johnart said:

no, i agree. i just think once it starts to get personal, the thread gets dumb and dies. that's the bullshit i meant, not the whole thread because some don't agree with me.

SCNDLS said:

it seemed to get civil again.

cborgman said:

I don't really know what their deal is. I'm just saying that sadly it's not a stretch these days.
I do think hair is a silly thing to make a big fuss about in this particular instance.
I do think it's gender biased to dictate one length as acceptable for males vs. females.
I do think uniforms are good and different from the hair issue.
I do realize the thread is about this boy's hair.
I do think that the uniform discussion is a natural extension of the topic at hand.
I do think uniforms are good and serve a purpose.

I think that's a fair recap on my general feelings regarding what's gone down so far.

i know your stances, i read your posts.

i certainly didn't mean to sound as if i am demanding that talk of uniforms be stopped immediatly. if that's how it sounded, i apologize, but it's not what i meant to say at all.

Who was uncivil? And where did this occur?

I didn't personally insult you anywhere in this thread. I took issue with what you said and replied accordingly. Just like anyone else can do on a public forum. You were the one coming here trynna clown us for talking about other stuff, that was still kinda relevant, which for some odd reason wasn't to your liking, and then you got mad and decided to take your toys and go home.

Regardless, even if our side discussion wasn't totally on topic, what difference does it make, in GD of all places? Is it serious enough for you to scold us about it? I've seen threads here and in P&R go WAY more off topic than we were and not heard a peep from anyone. Matter of fact I can point to threads right now where YOU yourself are WAY off topic and ain't nobody said nuthin. But for some reason, us talking about school uniforms, entitled kids and their knucklehead parents, etc. bothered you to the point you had to talk shit.

I love it when folks announce they're leaving a thread then just have to come back for the sole purpose of dropping another dig.

SCNDLS said:

really?

what y'all fuckers talking about??

cborgman said:

Yeah, really.

SCNDLS said:

good for you.

cborgman said:

Peachy keen, jellybean!

SCNDLS said:

so... do you really think the balloon boy parents are even close to these parents? what do they stand to even possibly gain from this?

thejason said:

babynoz said:

johnart said:

johnart said:

This coming from Mr. Hush-ton himself.

johnart said:

I'm saving all my wrath for Pat Robertson...I need to pay a crackhead to stomp on his liver.

But that's off topic,
