244. i think it matters since you constantly rail against calling out trolls
Sat Oct 26, 2013, 02:01 PM
Oct 2013

except when you're the one trying to do it (your failure notwithstanding).

you constantly rail against posting against other posters in the way you are precisely doing right now.

either you think it's okay to do it or you don't. thinking it's okay when you do it and not when others do it is hypocritical to say the least. and it's being charitable to call you hypocritical, when in fact, you save this behavior to attack liberal posters here.
