The Stigmatization Of The "Loner."

a reply to: TarzanBeta

The world doesnt need thinkers.

It needs people to improve the roads and drive the buses and cook the meals.

a reply to: TarzanBeta

Eat all the butter you want! If you and I met on the street, Id give you a block of butter.

I WANT you to eat butter. I want you to eat MORE butter.

Let me remind you of something, Mr. RedWhite&Blue. A so-called loner is protected under the same Bill of Rights as you are. Unless there is probable cause, "reporting" them would be a jerk/hypocritical move. Being a loner does not constitute probable cause.

Of course, I don't think it's a new trend either.

"This world does not need the people that made it possible for me to troll this thread from the comfort of my trailer home in Mobilehoma (Oklahoma to you non Texans)

a reply to: BELIEVERpriest

Maybe not. Yet.

But I got my eyes on the loner. And I'll be ready to report them at the drop of a hat.

Just doing my duty.

Whats wrong with me is i dont trust people who are by themselves.

Humans are social animals. So when a drifter comes wandering into town, usually there up to no good.

Humans are absolutely NOT social animals. Territorial and Vicious in every manner of the word.

Yes. Humans are a social species.

Territorial and vicious? Sure... in groups.

There's a reason why tribes are of more than one person. Yes, they may fight one another. Yes, They may kill the other tribe and take their land. but they do it together, they act as a group, they raise families communally.

Just because there is squabbles between groups of people doesn't mean we aren't a social species.

Just to clarify, I in no way agree with or am siding FuggleHop's original comments here. I'm just letting you know that Humans are a Social Species.

Who do you think designed the roads, designed the buses, designed the meals?

You're a grunt. Don't talk back to me.

a reply to: SR1TX

Exactly! The good honest folks who live in trailer homes in Oklahoma.

There was never a better group of real americans.

Plus without Oklahoma there'd be no Pony Boy curtis.

a reply to: TarzanBeta

But that's the thing.

Your not better than the rest of us just because your a self proclaimed thinker.

You didn't design roads or buses or meals. Those people are designers.

But your not a designer or engineer.

Your a thinker.

And you think your an elite thinker.

So, yeah - youre not an especially GOOD thinker, though you are an exceptionaly arrogant one.

Honest?

There is a reason most of them live that way.

Honesty is not exactly what I would chalk it up to, either.

And some of those engineers are loners...

I'm still trying to understand your position and why you have this weird view of people whom dislike being around giant groups of other people for fun?

a reply to: SR1TX

Everyone makes mistakes. That doesnt make them less valuable or worthy.

Do you get offended reading Plato or Aristotle? Do you feel these men existed only to frown upon your lack or intellect? Perhaps they like I would praise your trolling ability at least.

Ahhh now we come full circle, haven't we?

The chip out your shoulder looks like it could be chiseled down a little. Can I recommend a good doctor?

a reply to: SR1TX

No, that chip is staying there. I can cradle my phone against it when I phone in to report the suspicious loner I see skulking around after dark.

Alright. I'll let your quotes do the talking:

FuggleHop
If I saw a loner Id report them. Nothing screams out "suspicious" more than a loner.

FuggleHop: And still, I'd report a loner if I saw one. Nothing more suspicious then a self rightoueous loner.

FuggleHop: Whats wrong with me is i dont trust people who are by themselves.

FuggleHop:
Ask yourself a question: If their's nothing wrong with the loner, then why are they alone? The proof is in the pudding. If they were normal people they wouldnt be alone.

And that was just the first page.

a reply to: SpeakerofTruth

I consider myself a loner. I literally have no friends. I have a few people who I consider acqaintences, who I talk to every few months. That being said, I have absolutely no desire to harm people. That's only because I can't stand people and don't want to expend any of my energy on them.

a reply to: Ghost147

And you agree with me on those points I assume.
