Reread the entire thread, sweetheart; I never said that you did call me a "conservative."
You're a grown man and you're calling another one sweetheart?
Yes. Because it's a funny way to reveal how seriously I'm taking you. However, like much humor, it also reveals that I chose to engage in a petty
form of insult. So on one hand, it's still funny; on the other hand, perhaps I should carry myself in a more mature way.
I will say this, however. I am secure enough with myself that I can call you "sweetheart" and not have to question anything about myself, except
maybe, as I just mentioned, my own maturity level. That said, I'm making a conscious choice here to address your post, because you've called me
out.
And I've responded.
Yeah, you do now, because somebody was kind enough to provide a link with that information.
Actually, no. I learned about it when people started saying it 12 months ago like I told you. You're about a year late with the Kool
Aid joke buddy if you are looking for originality.
Well, I guess I'm not as hip as you. Next time I'm looking for the newest in new insults, I'll u2u ya. Also, if you could send me a link to the
web-site that informs you when jokes run out, I'd appreciate it. A whole year, huh?
I think you'll find that you are far from the first to say.
The "first to say"....what, exactly? The first to say that somebody seems to be drinking the proverbial Kool-Aid? I never claimed to be the
"first." See, every single day I use words and phrases that are not "mine". It's called
language. You're familiar with it, too!
In fact, people have been saying "drinking the Obama kool aid" far too much on this board, which is why I asked you to stop to begin
with. It's annoying.
Well, I'd say how sorry I am to have annoyed you, but that would be disingenuous of me. Besides, I never put the word "Obama" next to the word
"Kool-Aid" [and yes, "Kool-Aid" is one word, not two, because it's hyphenated] [just in case you were going to try and "get" me on that]
Your obvious disdain for "conservatives", whomever you assume and stereotype them to be, reveals what such thinking, and more
importantly, FEELING is actually all about.
You remind me of another person on this board who likes to pretend like he knows who I am. I don't have a disdain for all conservatives, but it was
conservatives who coined the phrase, "Drinking the Obama Kool Aid".
Technically, I doubt you actually know who "coined the phrase." A "conservative", by your definition? That's a good possibility. Of course,
you don't actually know. But you've helped me make the point that you have contempt for so-called "conservatives", because, by your guesswork, it
must have been one of those people who came up with the idea of Obama Kool-Aid. Liberals are much more loving and clever.
Myself, I don't get to hung-up on these labels, especially in terms of people's political affiliations. See, the thing about labels is that once
you start using them on people, they will invariably do or say something to defy the restrictions of said label. In my book, it's simply bad form.
But, that's just me.
How it is that you are making such a huge deal out of this, I'll never understand.
That's fine with me. Some things you just don't want to understand. No harm, no foul. Now, I'm still not sure what constitutes a "huge deal"
for you, but it really isn't important to me. I guess maybe "how" I'm making such a "huge deal" out of it is really for you to decide on,
because you're the one who has chosen to label it as such.
You are a grown ass man that calls other men sweethearts,
Again, with that line of attack... I cannot be more clear about this than to express to you, with the utmost sincerity, that nothing I said, no word
I chose to use in any way contradicts who I know myself to be. If you haven't figured it out yet, it was meant in jest. Kind of like if I called
you "poor baby" or something to that effect. And I do recognize the inherent conflict in using such words. And, the more I consider it, I feel as
though I owe you a bit of an apology. If another man called me "sweetheart" in such a condescending way, I certainly wouldn't appreciate it. So,
if I have offended you, that I apologize.
and cries when people kindly ask you not to say something that offends them.
Can you pass the Kleenex? Even though your suggestion of my having "cried" doesn't sit all to well with me, I concede that I had that coming,
since you are still my sweet and sensitive little sugar booger. See, there I go again.
Now that kind of action would've been extremely immature and a
display of low intelligence.
