Why are there all these threads talking about somebody who doesn't respond?

It's like there is a room with 200 people, one lonely guy sitting in the middle and the other 199 people are all talking about him and he just sits there drinking a jack and coke LOL (DU cracks me up)




How about everybody talk about me, but I'll actually respond and make it fun!

We can start with something out of the blue, like the benefits of street racing!


(GT sounds goooooood)

Nearest I can figure is, our Mr. Pitt has been a professional writer for so long, he has learned to say his piece and not bother reading the comments.

What I find most humorous is the lengths folks go to not actually mention his name, even when defending him.

Anyway, who cares!


You ever see a picture of a baby born with a tail?

The question is, would you want to keep it, or cut it off?

No top post because basically, it would have been a waste of wood.

Of course then everyone would be worshipping Mr. T

I imagine that someone is having some LULZ at the Outraged-Defenders-of-the-Big-O that think they are owed an apology.

I think Pitt is thoroughly vindicated in his outburst. Sometimes life is cruelly unfair and you just got to vent. It's not as if Obama, or the ACA, is perfect.

I also think the Commander of the Outrage Brigade needs to get a better hobby, as a cheerleader he sucks.

Did someone you love and admire more than anyone else in the world, to the very core of your being, recently get harshly criticized by someone?

Maybe you just need a hug.

With a poster who attempted to use DU as a platform for a launch into some kind of public life and when that did not happen, uses DU as a playground for their own ego - seemingly without any restraint.

He could be found on the front lines, in the street, at the head of the crowd, lambasting whatever ANY administration is trying to shove down our throat against our will ...

I trust Will will be there when we need him most ...

His detractors here at DU? ... not so much ...

He has earned the right to castigate this president ... and I don't blame him ...

The others can 'clutch their pearls' and faint from the political vapors all they want - Will is the real deal, and hardly anyone here can diminish that ...

Will walks the walk for all of us ... do you?

Neither is calling someone a piece of shit. That's not even 'talk', it's just juvenile nonsense. Ted Nugent-level nonsense.
