Civility

Seems to be a lot of "Your crow is not as black as mine" here lately.

"Can't we all just get along?"

"Opinions are like assholes, everybody has one."

Sorry JJ. But in my view, honesty is sometimes in short supply as well. I suppose I should follow the advice we gave the kids and exercise my PTI (power to ignore).

Regards,

D-Ray

I used to go to a great deal of trouble not in insult anyone, didn't play the "gotcha game", tried to advance my opinion in a rational manner, etc...

until I began to feel that I was the Lone Stranger.

I still try not to be just TOO big of an asshole, but I've reached the point of telling my mamma that "Everyone else is doing it."

And as JJ points out, that still don't make it right.

Today's example is Robert DeNiro, making crude remarks at an Obama fundraiser. He's just joined my rather large list of entertainers to ignore.

I need this time off, even if I did have to get cut to get it. The drugs should keep me more pleasant for a while. Ha, ha......

For racially slanted humor, I prefer someone with a couple brain cells to rub together, like Mr. Zappa's "Porn Wars" when he was fighting Tipper Gore-

"Now...how many you folks is convinced De gubnint be totally 'unconcerned' Wit de proliferatium o' undesirable tenants In de condominium o' life? An' how many folks believe they number won't come up, Next time de breeze blow fum de easterly directium? Les' face it, peoples! Ugly as I mights be, I am yo' futchum! Ain't that right, sister ob'dewlla? Hmm hmm! oh, oh yeah! thass right!"

Funny, kinda racist, AND spot on.

BlueStreak, it sounds like the hillbilly heroin is affecting your logical thinking centers in your brain.
