Leave your stones at the door.

[Bob Fechter]

After much thought, I think I've come to a realization of why there is so much turmoil about the turmoil on this forum when certain subjects are broached. Well it finally came to me! For the past twenty years or so, boys are expected to act like girls!.

As a result, men aren't supposed to behave in a manly manner anymore! The problem gets acerbated when someone, who was raised to be a man, buts up to one who was raised to be a girl! Simple, no?

"Let's all get along now. Above all, we must have peace here or I'll get a headache and never post again!"

Well my apologies to the younger generations who didn't have the stones to stand up to the destruction of your man instincts. Get off the Ritalin and lets have us a real debate with out complaining about sand in our privates!

OHHH BOB BOB BOB this aint going to go over well LOLOLOLOLOL

 

[Jeff Young]

I mean, posting stuff like that behind an anonymous user name on the Internet is the EPITOME of manly.

Bob's got him some Vaporstones!

 

[Pat]

Since we're posting like girls, shouldn't we post pictures of girls?

No Bob, I think the real issue is back when you and I were kids, if you or I went into a conversation with those within our group of kids, with the kind of opening accusational statements that have been made in the Paddock, we would have gotten our block knocked off. That was a period in life when one learned a lesson in life about interacting with other humans, what is appropriate (whether God given or not), inappropriate, likely to get your clock cleaned, or gender (verb) respect from your peers. That was time when we would receive the pointed end of immediate feedback, rather than hide behind a monitor and throw out anything that came to mind. In today's world, the crucial aspect of human interactive learning is gone, and the next generation may (will) be represented by binar conversation that lacks this critical element in the maturation process to adulthood. When I was raised to be a man (as a child), it became painfully obvious that meant garnering respect and integrity from both my words and actions, and that anything that prevented that was not acceptable. I've carried that (or tried to my best ability) with me all my life. To weigh into some of the the recent commotion, at the same level it was delivered, simply was against that teaching, MANLY or not.

Amen.

Confused now mate. Is this why you also started a thread on favourite recipes....on a car forum? Now a man's man eats food, not cook it!

Hi Guys

The problem from my point of view as I see it is that in the "OLD DAYS" if you had a problem with another bloke we would go outside, have a few rounds, and then go back inside and have a drink.

These days all the so called "blokes" want to go running off to mummy or call the cops if you even look at them sideways.

Also nobody wants to take responsibility for their actions and consequences.
It is always someone else's fault and someone else shoud pay or take the blame.

The world has changed and I fear not for the better.

I am almost at the point where I feel happy to be at the later stages of my life and won't see society degrade into a hopeless mess, which seems to be inevitable.

Dimi.

Let's translate. If Bob said some of the stuff he has said here to a lot of us , he'd get a punch a in the face.

 

[Bob Fechter]

I love you guys, I really do.

 

[Mark]

But you know they're right Bob. Love em or hate em.

 

[Mark]

And Veek! How the hell do you concentrate on eating with that lot all over the place? Frankly it's outrageous. Someone should put a stop it right now!

 

[Damian]

They serve food there?

Dear, dear Jeff! Who hurt you?

 

[Cliff Beer]

So let me guess, Bob is a real man with the "stones" to say it like it is.....and anyone who doesn't like it is a sissy metrosexual with no backbone.

Why do I waste my breath on this drivel?

 

[Dave]

Bob the Knob.......say no more.

BOB FOR PRESIDENT! :thumbsup:

Thank you Keith1,

And when elected, on the first day, I will dismantle Obamacare and begin the process of letting Medicare "die on the vine."

On the second day, I will order an immediate 20% cut in federal spending with no exceptions.

On the third day, a group of the finest auditors will be assembled to audit the entire federal government. there will be ten Secret Service agents assigned to each of these brave citizens.

On the fourth day, it will be decreed that all law suit expenses nationwide will be paid by the losing party of the suit.

On the fifth day, all bureaucracies will be notified that they will be examined as to their worth in the real world we actually live in. The EPA will immediately reimburse all entities that have been damaged by their unscientific regulations. All payments will come out of existing funds. This will also apply to Fish and Game, ATF, etc.

on the sixth day, a comprehensive school voucher system will be enacted and all relators operating in the Silicon Valley will be arrested for stealing land from the Mexicans, who stole it from the noble Indigenous People, and then sold it for outrageous sums of money to very rich white men who plan on killing snail darters, delta green ground beetles, Kern primrose sphinx moths, and of course, the bald eagle!!!!

On the seventh day,,,,, well, I'll take a break!
