dneal - Did you soil yourself in fear?

Of course not. Unlike Arthur and the boys, I'm a gun owner. The furry creatures know their place, so we live in harmony. Maybe now that the SC overturned NYC's gun law, they'll get their squirrels under control too.

Seriously, you need a gun to control a squirrel?

Seriously, you still don't get satire or sarcasm?

Hint: see Chip's satirical article with the squirrel carrying the rocket launcher. Then watch Lloyd's Monty Python and the Holy Grail clip. Now add the recent SC decision regarding NYC's gun law.

I thought this was a thread of quotes? Here's one:

"We find comfort among those who agree with us - growth among those who don't."
Frank A. Clark

I had friends in undergrad (L.I. ,NY) that "hunted" for squirrels and seagulls using a blowgun and made stews with their successes.

Didn’t see your post as satire and I doubt that was your intent. More likely come ass clown covering.

One thing I know is of most importance, maintaining what you think is germane to the topic. A bit OCD on your part.

"Every discussion which is made from an egoistic standpoint is corrupted from the start and cannot yield an absolutely sure conclusion. The ego puts its own interest first and twists every argument, word, even fact to suit that interest."

Some may enter these discussions with little consideration or maybe just to appear to be funny. Some grapple. Some struggle. Just consider this when your hoping to look cute.

On other threads there've been complaints about the quality of our insults. So, to expand the available vocabulary, here's a useful reference:

Thanks, Chip. I can use some for Wordle.

I like that there is an "informal" set of insults. What is some formal ones....?

[Chip]

Not hard to pick out the high-toned terms: Halfwit, blockhead, buffoon, dunce, ignoramus, cretin, imbecile, dullard, simpleton, clod. Picture a brassed-off chap in a dinner jacket: what would he say?

I like the Irish, Aussie, and Kiwi terms: numpty, plonker, pillock, git, drongo, galah, bogan. They left out blatherskite, a garrulous sort of fool.

It's difficult to choose, but "five being right out" is possibly the funniest line in that movie.

I am fluent in cursive, but I've been trying for years to cut back.

Do you edit ✍️ or read your posts prior to posting? I see some questionable grammatical issues.
