I don't know what i hate more, being subjected to increasingly authoritarian christofascist rule in my country or having some punk looking down his nose at me and saying it's my own fault.
Pssssh.
Tell you what. When it happens to you, why don't you tell me what you hate more.
(Fuggen punks think theyre fighting ready just cuz they've never been tested, geez almighty.)
Yeah.. shocking.. victim blaming coming from tough guys
Victim blaming and undeserved arrogance come from the same type of folks, huh? The best (only good) part of interacting with these losers is the fact we're on a public forum. At least then there are others to witness the interaction and see how dumb they look. I can only hope
Oh shit.. love the ratm and/or the boss reference! Very different music, very similar representation :)
It's RATM and steinbeck, since the reference lead me to read the book and afterwards led me to many more truths. Thanks man! I am happy when people get the ref.
You fuck w Tortilla Flat? My favorite by far.
Oh my God tortilla flat is fucking brilliant. I thought it trite in the first couple chapters but i stuck it out and was proven a fool. By the end i loved every one of those guys and now i need to read it again
You from upstate NY? Around 40 yrs old? Did you give me this book in college? Bc you sound like a certain guy I know... Lol
What do you think RATM would think about these "don't criticize me for doing nothing" posts?
Tom and zach would both be embarrassed for you.
Firstly for your cowardly sock-puppetry, secondly for not knowing that those lyrics reference an important steinbeck character.
But cone. You have one more, right? One more name you use to pump upboats in your silly existence? Hurry and bring that one out to be clever as well
The irony of you calling someone cowardly. You didn't name your account "Tom Joad", you named it in reference to the song, which is explicitly a social protest song from people willing to actually do something rather than complain about being shamed. This isn't quite Paul Ryan loving Rage while being the actual machine, but what a monumental lack of introspection.
"Where there's a fight 'gainst the blood and hatred in the air, look for me, mom, I'll be there."
Clearly Tom and Zach would echo this sentiment. Authoritarianism or someone looking down their nose at your inaction, who's to say which is worse?
How long did it take you to write this? I won't be satisfied until i know you've wasted as much time thinking i might be worth your time as i did with you
LOL. Coming back and replying a second time as the person who already read and responded to a grandchild comment tangentially about them really screams "I'm not bothered".
You're actually right. Especially now that I've got 5 beers in me and can't tell if you're some new cunt whiteknighting for the punk i schooled, or if youre the same dumb cunt i taught a lesson to before.
I've already wasted so much time giving a fuck about losers and low intellect arguments tonight. Frankly, i have to cede this win.
You win.
You win, you fucking monkeys.
See ya tomorrow, you goddamn beautiful pieces of shit
It's a new day baby
I got a few words in and got really bored. Dou you have any last words?
Fuck you
;)
Oh, you were agreeing with the punk? Geez i am surprised. I wonder if it matters to you that you wasted my time just now?
Probably not, huh? It's kinda you're thing, huh? Being clever?
