If one were to post on DU that "its night time" ........

[Stinky The Clown]

.... when it is dark outside, the moon is visible, the clock reads 2 AM, the dog is snoring at the foot of the bed, there are nothing but empty pizza boxes on the living room coffee table, and there's no car or pedestrian traffic outside .......

.... some genius DU poster will point out that it may not actually be night time.

It might be a solar eclipse.

Or the US forgot to pay its Sunshine Company bill last month.

Or any one of a thousand cockamamie reasons why the OP is wrong.

Or it could be that the OP is a "Darkist" Or is the proper term a "Nightist"?

Or maybe the OP is just AntiDay or a Sunhater.

It never fails ...... but ......

..... yanno ........... sometimes a post is just what it says it is.

Honest.

No shit.

It really could be that simple.

............ amazing ........

1. Some people never have learned to accept...

That a cigar IS sometimes just a cigar.

[asdjrocky]

:evilgrin: :beer:

2. I saw that.

Some people want a debate, regardless of the merits.

Those people get nothing from me.

3. Yep, you are right about that. Why is it that we can be so mean to each other?

I'm not innocent, but I do think about what I'm about to post sometimes and then not post it because it is just what your talking about.

I think it has something to do with the fights between the parties. We get so caught up in it that we fight with each other too.

I remember when I was younger there wasn't this hatred between the parties. It seem to start about the same time as wing nut radio started.

9. All part of the times in which we live.

I really think that an awful lot of people are feeling frustrated and unfufilled in these times. After all, most, if not all jobs are dead-end experiments in the murder of the human soul, the pay doesn't allow a life without the stresses of making ends meet, the situation with the government has been 7+ years of hell, anon. The have to let the pressure off somehow, but without finding a tall building and either jumping off of it or using it as a sniper's perch. So they argue for the sheer viscerality of the experience.

We have lost the ability to reflect on someone else's viewpoint. And respect it.

10. From what I've read, this is nothing compared to Jefferson-Adams

If you want to read about some real nasty negative campaigning, read up on the election of 1800.

They should make a movie about that election.

5. oh, sure, you can only think about YOUR time zone...

:eyes:




:D kidding

[mdmc]

6. while the OP may be true

a reader on the other side of the earth would not have the same experience.

[Uncle Joe]

8. Well for D.U.ers on the other side of the planet, it wouldn't be. n/t

[lumberjack_jeff]

13. Did you just call me a git?

You know, reading between the lines, it's easy to reach that conclusion. :sarcasm:

Sometimes I think maybe it's just better to post empty white space so people can project whatever they're feeling onto it without all the clutter of words n' stuff.

:hi:
