you guys deeply misunderstand lb, if you asked him if his neighbor was a human (as opposed to alien or lizard person) he'd likely answer probably as well because there's no way he can confirm it having not done an autopsy

Depends on my mood but something like "pretty sure" or "probably" or "I hope so" would be the answer.

I think we probably landed on the moon.

There is zero doubt that the US landed 6 separate manned spacecraft on the moon during the Apollo program in 1969-1972. 12 men have 100% walked on the moon.

Just wanted to clear that up.

is this because you enabled it?


Not sure why you are trying to dunk on Gorgo over something illogical someone else said


hahahahaha I'm actually in tears


Doing the “probably” thing for every single fact that one hasn’t personally, physically verified sounds… exhausting. That’s scraping the bottom of the dad joke barrel into splinters.

nowhere is it clear that he's quoting what they said - he didn't dare respond until roc gave the excuse that "he may have been quoting his parents" and then suddenly he's all over the place with response of "of course that's not what i said it's what they said"

funny how the “i was quoting them” defense only appeared after someone handed it to him

I have not.

It's worthwhile from a literary standpoint. One of the finer works mankind has produced.

Is it? I always figured it was valued less for it's literary qualities and more because of its historical/documentary importance.

My parents said I should be killed along with some of my friends who are gay. Them because they are gay, and me because I enable it.






bye now ricky. That was pathetic even by your standards hahaha

Now I am being blamed for spoiling this great gotcha? Come on.

he responds to everything i post

radio silence on this, even his "i ignore him" lie doesn't hold up because others were responding and he was responding to other stuff at the time

then suddenly once you give him an out he's all over this and posting on it at his normal pace

it's pretty clear those were his own thoughts, he's always the main character, look at all his posting history - everything in through him as a focal point - classic narcissist turning to politics posting to feel better about his superiority

He had me squirming until you let me off the hook by **checks notes** reading my post the way I wrote it.

How dare you


the proof is in the timing - if it were so simple all along you would have simply said so instead of dodging it until roc gave you an out

It's not really a joke but more of how I actually do approach knowledge...the Socrates "all I know is that I know nothing" definitely seems favorable to whatever Gorgo does.

I mean, sure. I just don’t believe you actually do this for every bit of history.


by VoraciousReader

You're right. Why make veiled threats when you can just come right out and say that you're going to shoot someone's dog

Some of us have plenty of people we would choose to shoot over a sweet dog that had never threatened or hurt anyone

Or caused car crashes.

You know damned well I've always blamed the Catholics.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serge_Mona...

In 1995, he published his most detailed work, Les Protocoles de Toronto (6.6.6), modelled upon The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, wherein he said a Masonic group called "6.6.6" had, for twenty years, been gathering the world's powerful to establish the New World Order and control the minds of individuals.[citation needed]

We really need to go through this again? 😆 You're the one who felt the need to propagate theories by this guy. Nobody is buying your bullshit re Catholics any more than they are re your mutt.


by Luckbox Inc

I have not.

How about the Turner diaries, you ever read that?

Lol, Rick I 100% read it as his parents saying the quip when first viewing the post. I thought you’d quickly run out of steam and come to the same conclusion, Occam’s razor and all that jazz.

I don’t know why your spidey senses are tingling on this one and I think you’re making a really bad read, here.

THIS!!!

I don't think anyone other than Rick had any problem understanding what Gorgo meant.

Rick has had comprehension issues like this before. (Recently even: once with coordi and once with Roc)



Anyways this was yesterday so you guys can actually see what the ditch looks like. In other parts of the neighborhood depending on the sun exposure the ditch can be completely filled in with snow...and then you think it's ok once you get a tire in there you have to dig yourself out.

But in neither car incident did the cars "crash", or "swerve" or take any sort of drastic measure to avoid the dogs. They were going like 2 mph because they were already stopped then did something stupid.

I mean I grew up in the suburbs but at this point in my life I've lived in all sorts environments including plenty of rural areas and I don't think dealing with problematic dogs is that hard.

There is almost never going to be a reason to shoot a dog even if it was coming to you aggressively. In Colombia I just walk with my 20 liter Osprey brand day bag everywhere I go and if a dog is at you aggressively you just hold it between yourself and the dog. They don't understand that it's not a real shield. If you don't have a bag you can pick up a rock. You don't have to throw it just picking it up is enough.

For diaries I've read The Journals of Sylvia Plath and that's it.

He has had a hardon for me for a long time. I'm quite used to it. He's just EXCEPTIONALLY bad at it. Like this one isn't even controversial. I literally said "My parents said" and he can't figure it out. He imagines a way he can take shots at me and gets tunnel vision or something. Been happening here forever with him.

I like that he said the proof is in the timing too. No ricky, sorry. I don't read 99% of your posts. Every once in awhile I click on ignored people's posts because nobody else is posting and I want to read something. I nearly always regret it.

In everyday conceptions of knowledge, yes. In a philosophical context I can see why someone would not want to affirm this.

Your evidence that I'm an antisemite is that I talked about something called Project Bluebeam and that the guy who proposed that idea once wrote a book that has a resemblance to an anti-semite book in its title?
