Why would you think you are so special and above them? I don't get.

That is kinda dumb don'tcha think as well as egotistical arrogant condescending patronizing and supercilious? Why be artifical in communication because you thinks others are ignorant?

Is it a Mark Twain award for the best outrageous tale? Why not an Olympic Event pitting the world's best liars against one another? Think of the wondrous things we would hear. SIGH. Why not make money off it LEGALLY instead of surreptitiously?

His avowed heroes are despot dictators whose control over their people is COMPLETE and whose attacks on them is well known. Putin, Kim, Assad, Duterte, Erdogan. His role models for what a leader should be. His contempt for prior allies, "the good guys", is no secret.How long do we have before his heart's desire is actualized?

It makes me want to dance.M. How in the hell much longer is this danged poll going to go on?N. None of the above/other answer.~ less
Do they not have to ask or answer anything but just sail through other people's questions and answers and "like" all of them and gain points that way? Just wonderin'!

That kinda annoys me bigly. Does the same thing happen to you and if so does it irritate you too?

One of the poster boys for sexual abuse, super don, thought he should get the Nobel Peace Prize for falling in love with a despot dictator human rights violator!. What was the Nobel Peace Prize awarded for this time? Fighting sexual abuse as a weapon war.There is a moral in there somewhere. Can you find it?
It's not trademarked, nor do I have a copyright on it, I didn't even initiate it, it's just that I encouraged its use to the point that others picked up on it too. Jes' sayin'.

Through snow and sleet and hurricanes and tornadoes and Tsunamis and earthquakes and fires and floods and mudslides and extremes of heat and cold they carry on and carry on and carry on. There should be an award for their bravery in the face of constant condemnation. What award would be suitable?
Do you explore, experiment, investigate? I suppose you could accept what is and stay within that framework but where is adventure, excitement, ptential in THAT?
