The Temple Bar - Not Like Everybody Says ... Like Dumb ... UYMFA

[VintagePunk]

There are specific members of PLEBA I really like, and specific members I really dislike. The ones I dislike are the ones I want to see fly off the deep end.

Fair enough, and, agreed.

But then for me, that holds true for all areas of the board.

 

[phillyfan26]

It's mostly the people who leave PLEBA and go to EYKIW and police people's U2 jokes (i.e.: U2girl).

My take, not that anyone cares:

Pleba is a silly place, but, as VP says, harmless. You do not like the area, do not got there. So, I do not want it to blow up, but I'll always poke fun at it now and then.

PFan, it's no better or worse than FYM. Some of the people in FYM actually make me sick, whereas the worst of plebans just make me laugh.

Is she a Pleban? I have no idea. Honestly, the only time I ever go to the picture threads is when someone points out drama occurring there.

I hope PLEBA blows up. I want to see that.

Aw, they're too resilient for that.

Anyway, it's just one part of the board. So what's the big deal?

 

[phillyfan26]

When I say blow up, I don't mean like cease to exist. I just mean fifty PLEBAns completely flipping out and getting crazy defensive. The unintentional comedy is quite high.

I'm with you 100% on FYM, NSW.

Isn't there an expression about cockroaches and Plebans after a nuclear holocaust?

Oh, okay. I've seen that happen in one or two pleban threads, and it makes me wonder if they have a sense of humor. It's also one reason why (except for chat threads) I don't go to pleban threads as much as I used to.

Some plebans have a good sense of humor about themselves, others take it WAY to seriously...and it is amusing.

See, Danimal?

Just like FYM.

 

[U2democrat]

FYM is an interesting place. It can get frustrating as hell. All us regulars are very stubborn, put us all together arguing different points and everything just goes in circles.

 

[phillyfan26]

My favorite frustrating moment is that anytime I make a legitimate argument to Diamond, he goes "Ha, look at this:" and posts that I'm on his ignore list.

I swear if he does it one more time, I'm going on a profanity-laced tirade that results in me getting warned/suspended from FYM.

That's why I often say "The wheels in FYM go round and round.

It's not about being stubborn, it's more about everyone feels how they feel, and a flat screen is not going to often convince anyone to change their mind. Also, some in FYM are a tad too condescending for my tastes....being smart or informed does not give one license to piss all over other people's stances.

 

[U2democrat]

Don't even waste your time and energy with Diamond. He's not worth it.

 

[Dalton]

Ask him about his special underpants.

Don't let that clown impact you like that. He's a lost fucking cause..not because of his beliefs, but because of the levels he stoops to.

Too true. There's one particular poster who shall go unnamed who always seems to have mia and I in her sights.

 

[redhotswami]

i've stopped talking to him. i grew tired of driving into brick walls.

laura - is there a hurricane or something i didn't know about?

I know who you mean. I have actually been encouraged, lately, to see this person posting outside of FYM and actually showing a sense of humor.

 

[phillyfan26]

I don't notice the in-battles like that as much.

I loved when Snowlock posted "Who the hell is unico and why is she here?"

 

[Dalton]

Under - fucking - pants!

 

[VintagePunk]

everything just goes in circles.

Although I do read most of what's posted, that's why I rarely post in there. Pretty much only when a subject comes up that's unique and interests me. You can predict how certain people will respond to the usual topics, and it's almost always the same points restated over and over.

 

[Dalton]

If you guys are talking about deep. I wanted to let you know that I've adopted him/her as a special project.

A fire might take away your hand, but it can't you HUMOR! /braveheart

 

[phillyfan26]

I use FYM as practice for real life debates. It does go in circles, but I try to use that to refine and perfect my clarity.

I lurk there a lot, the only place I do lurk. I sometimes post. Not a lot.

that's because we're clones

Hurricane Obama! ba-dum tish!


Seriously though there's a front going through. The temperature's supposed to drop 20 degrees.

 

[phillyfan26]

I feel like it's so obvious who this person is and I can't put my finger on it.
