Joan of Ark La Tex: And Larry, evidently you were restraining your wondering hand from groping Dave Carter in that one picture. I have to say you two do look good together. Is that why you should been writing with the Vengeance? You sure do know the way to get writer's heart in spite of his huge female fan club. You have high taste of fellow hater.

What exactly is a "wondering hand" -- a  hand put in the shape of a question mark?

Of course we look good together -- we have a lot in common.

  1. Dave is from Cajun territory in the south. I'm from South Dakota (born in Rapid City).
  2. We both have to beat women off of us.
  3. We both have a CIA background.
  4. We are both smarter than almost anyone else (except each other -- if we ever meet in person [God forbid] I will tell you a little story that will clarify this some more but it doesn't seem discreet to mention it here [you know who is lurking in the corner]).
  5. Dave writes beautifully -- ditto for me.
  6. There's more but enough talk about me -- what did YOU think about my comments above?

Larry Koler: Is everything about sex with you?

I don't understand the etymology of the word. I thought you just weren't sure how to spell "Freakish" and that since you are from France (near the Pyrenees) you thought this was good enough and that we Anglophones wouldn't notice or that we were too polite to point it out. Well, you thought wrong.

Larry Koler: And "Ruby Red" ? What does that convey to us? I know what Red stands for and it's got a lot to do with consummation in general but the Ruby has me puzzled. And why a second choice? That seems sloppy.

I know that when I used to go to the Halloween Parade in Greenwich Village, every third or fourth person was Dorothy wearing Ruby Red slippers. Does that help? · 12 minutes ago

First, what were you doing in that witch's village? I'm confused by the village being green with witch's and yet your brain has somehow connected this with the color Red. What gives? 

I know that color blind people can't distinguish red from green but I didn't think that applied to the written word, too. I think your brain furrows need to be scoured, you're talking gibberish.

DocJay: Improved by increasing the degeneracy. Larry "human paraquat" Koler strikes again. You think you're better than me because you have both your testicles? · 5 minutes ago

Doc, at least I don't use Rohypnol -- like you do on your male patients. I think that says it all about degeneracy around here. 

Regarding one's testicles (plural, please note), I do think that having two does merit a short discussion:

  1. I really only need one because of my high testosterone levels
  2. God (evidently) decided that, in making me, symmetry should always have sway for aesthetic reasons.
  3. I'm already a tenor so one wouldn't want to be a soprano like you.

I'm not into the legal world enough to know but: 

Where did Obama or the Congress get the LEGAL authority to do what he did? And why aren't the people who lost money suing in Federal Court?

10 cents: Larry,

Look at you. You are not worthy to criticize people who fought the early hate wars. Their scars needed to be respected. If you are able to last another thou maybe you will be worthy to offer your newbie advice. Remember this is the hate thread not some Seattle Sunday School Meet Up.

I say we throw Larry from the Monorail near the Ugly Museum. What sat you Scrut, Severely, Percival, Susan, DocJay, Joan, and FG?

Now, it's time to deal with the immigration aspect of this thread. I admit that I did come late to this country of hate -- there, how's that? BUT, I do not accept that I am thereby (that's legal wording so you know this is serious) of lesser worth, consequence or voting ability. 

You are a racist hater, oh dim one, -- you should accept my late arrival for what it was -- my attempt to save this thread from that ignominy (that's really bad for you illiterate ones [and why are the illiterate ones flocking to this thread, anyway?]) for which it was becoming known in the outside threads. Things have improved -- you have to admit -- since my immanence.

And "Ruby Red" ? What does that convey to us? I know what Red stands for and it's got a lot to do with consummation in general but the Ruby has me puzzled. And why a second choice? That seems sloppy.

Also, I know what trim is -- so I get that. 

And "Another blow" -- that's clear. 

Price is obvious when dealing with prostitutes -- so that, too, is clear enough. (But, I am confused about who's selling whom.)

Larry Koler
Fricosis Guy: BTW, just consummated the Escape purchase. Bought a second choice color -- "Ruby Red" -- for higher trim and better price. Another blow vs. Obama Motors. · 6 minutes ago

Is everything about sex with you? I hesitate to ask but here goes: with whom did you consummate this union? Does your partner know? Did you actually perform the consummation in the car? Things like that. Please fill us in on this so we can get the horrible thoughts out of our mind -- I mean, the answers are not as horrible as are first conjured by your declaration.

Escape is just about the right kind of car for you, oh Freakish One. It must be tough for you because no matter where you escape to -- voila! there you are again, with the same problems and poor character you've always had. 

No escape for you -- sorry.

Larry Koler

Though I take the Scrut's assistance with some trepidation (I don't know what he is planning in the dark furrows of his brain) I tentatively thank him for what should be obvious to all. But, when the dimewit is in charge one (that's me) must avail oneself (me again) of all the help one (.) can get no matter the poor quality or the poor character of said help (Scrut).

Sorry if that's confusing but I'm not used to having help on anything. Usually my implacable logic and my eloquence will stand me in good stead against all the tyrannies and petty nuisances (dime-wit, for example) of life. But, this thread has had all my abilities tested to the max and ... well, anyway:

I say that car hate is acceptable but no more advice of a convivial nature -- let's stop with the convivial stuff entirely -- and general car talk is now ruled out of bounds and we will all start making fun of you -- and I mean in a serious way (the gloves coming off and all that) -- and ratcheting (that means there's no going back) up the hate to cosmic levels.

Larry Koler

Too much car talk and too little car hate. If this doesn't stop we will need to disqualify such talk from this valuable thread space. 10 cents: we need to have fine print in the text of the post, I guess.

Here's an experiment we can all do: Every now and then you can smell partially burnt fuel in the air as you are driving along. Look up ahead and you will probably find the culprit is a GM product. I have been doing this for about 2 decades now and I would estimate that it's about 80% GM, 15% Chrysler and the rest is Ford mostly and only once did I find it to be a ratty old Datsun.

Larry Koler

Dave, what a treat to meet you and spend some time with you. Thank you for making the effort to be with us. It couldn't have turned out better -- a bunch of people made it this time, more than any of our other meetings. 

Rushbabe49 did a superb job. And wasn't it nice that devodivo took up the gavel, set us a topic to mull over and launched the shared discussion? He did this for our last meeting, which he arranged. This approach is one that I would recommend for other groups' meetings. What devodivo asked us to do was for each one of us to answer a question (encouraged, discouraged about the present state). Each person was given ample time and there was give and take during each answer from others.

We were so lucky to have a room just (barely) large enough to handle us all and yet there was great intimacy. 

Let me add how grateful I am to Peter, Rob and James for Ricochet.

10 cents: Larry,

The answer to your question is:heterosexually.

Fricosis Guy: BTW, my son pulled the "pull my finger" on me w/style. Pretended he had jammed a finger, then nuked me. Dad was so proud. · 1 minute ago

Yes, it makes it all worth while to have spent all the time learning these things, doesn't it? And the assurance that succeeding generations will have the full benefit? Incredibly rewarding.

I would like to know, though, how do gay people have children? 

That must have caused quite a shock around your place, I imagine.

FeliciaB: How I wish I could have been there with you! But the photos helped, and the video was an added delight.

Just curious, did Foxifier have to get in a wrestling match with Larry to ge her baby back? · 30 minutes ago

Those kids are absolutely gorgeous and so well behaved. I wanted to steal all of them. Two sweet girls and then the Foxfier family brings home a boy 1 month ago. It's so nice to have at least one of each, if possible.
