You know, it would be awesome if people didn't sneak political shit into otherwise innocuous posts to provoke flame wars and/or encourage others to break the new "No politics" rule, wouldn't it?

Ahem. Let's STILL try not to make this political. Good or bad, the merest mention of presidents and marches can and will set people off.

Wait a sec.............. exactly who are you guys saying is sneaking political stuff somewhere???

This stuff. Would much rather it be kept off the forums regardless of intent.

Ok, I swear I didn't mean to sneak anything. I promise.

I'll try to not do it again in the future.

We realize that - but voicing your support for Trump or Pence regardless of intent or what they did, is bound to set some people off - right now we are in a very divisive political time, and it really just is not a good idea to mention them on a gaming forum at all. It always ends badly - no matter how you meant it. And no matter what - there will always be at least one person who disagrees with you - that's all it takes to start a flame war.

Celebrated my 32nd with a trip into town for some duck ramen. It's the little things in life that I find most satisfying.

Apology accepted, and I will hold you to your word that you won't do it again in the future because previous moments of yours do not convince me that you are paying attention to your surroundings here.

Sorry for the confrontation mods, but the sheer irrationality on parade here is pissing me off.

I never realized it was that easy... again, I apologize.

?

I rest my case.

it's probably not a good idea to be calling out people on the forums like this, though.

I'm done.

Also, Yakuza 0 is fun.

But I don't even understand what Big C is even trying to say by calling me out like that... I need clarification, but now he says that his case has rested...

Big C, if you're trying to say something, please say it explicitly, rather than digging up my past embarrassments.

I'm saying you're a space cadet, mate. And the only reason I'm willing to give you ANY kind of pass on the lack of disregard for the consequences of your self-righteous actions is because you seem too sincere to be intentionally malicious or just trying to exploit anyone for your own benefit.

I don't have any problem with you being pro-life. One of my best friends and his family are pro-life. I *DO* mind the bandwagon you've chosen to hop on because the Republican party might very well not APPRECIATE said friends and family because they're foreigners.

That and the other point I'm trying to make is this is the latest in your HAVE I MENTIONED I AM CATHOLIC TODAY wearing-your-heart-on-your-sleeve shenanigans.

@Mods: I apologize for disrupting the harmony of the forums but I do not apologize for being fucking irritated at Krakken for needing everything explained to him and for general misplaced moralizing. That and I'm not happy he's just happily skipping along after this election apparently when friends of mine could be in danger.

EDIT: Yes, I suppose I *COULD* just PM him, but what if he blocks me?

I'll try to restrict my future comments from now on strictly to the topic of "What did I last do?" rather than "What did I last hear?" or "What did I last think?".
