Howdy ho TDS peoples....
It's another day, I really got into a mess last nite, praying il hold my shit together today, I dont feel bad, more dissapoint. Another weekend about to finish, i hope the realestate people are doing thier jobs and i get the phonecall i want on monday morning.
Whats crackin for everyone else today??
 
Sounds like an idea. Did you hear the police and firefighters werent even invited to attend the ceremony, too many politicians going.

That is so Fucked up... they were the ones who got ill from all the pulverised dust and shit, not to mention they were the people who were first line of help, while Governer Bush read my pet goat to elementry school kids, and the rest of em im sure knew what was coming, Utterly discusting, If i were goin there id have rotten fruit to throw @ all those fatcats and war mongers. So America who's gunna be the next boogieman i wonder? bets on Iran or Pakistan:|

The reason firefighters and policemen and military weren't "invited" to the events on this day, is because WE DON'T NEED IT.
The honor we get today doesn't come from getting atop any fucking stage, or from any fucking fancy speeches. Honor comes from within, and selfless-service doesn't need a goddamned PA to be recognized.

So I'll be standing amongst my fellow Americans and heroes in the crowd, as we honor the brave, the fallen, and the support/sacrifice lent us by people around the world; while we reaffirm our united purpose in stamping out oppression, hatred, and any who attack the just cause of freedom.

I fought next to Australians, Britons, Poles, Estonians, Koreans, Colombians..... because their countrymen & many other nationalities died as well in those towers and those planes...... too many people have forgotten (or chosen to ignore) that 11 September 2001 wasn't just a yellow-bellied, inhuman, murderous, mass-assault on America alone.

The only people bitching about police/fire/military not being "invited" to these events today (or any other slight/inconvenience), is the fucking bloodsucking pinko mass-media clowns & rabble-rousers trying to squeeze ratings out of OUR national tragedy...... or gain clout with those too ignorant or gullible to think beyond what their god-box shows them.

So you're going to let others tell you what to feel & think.... and then call others fascists when they don't agree with your theory, & stand by their nation?

If you want to know REAL oppression, go to Southwest Asia. Go to fucking China. Go fucking live in of your ideal utopian European states. Until then, your understanding of fascism and greed will be highly deficient.

Ix- I seriously thought BL was full of angry liberal college kids til now.
but even more seriously, fuck communism.

the reason communism doesn't work is cuz it's done on too big of a scale.
downsize your community to say, the size of a village, then you all can operate efficiently as cogs in your communal machine; perfect example, the native americans were a buncha commies, but successful ones.
I'm sorry to bring more politics in here.
It's like i just tracked into the house with muddy shoes.

Stop being so naive..... you've got time to learn some real life-lessons on your own..... not just what others tell you, and that you happen to think is a good idea.

Haha I didn't mean facist... i intended a different meaning. and I'm not letting others tell me what to think, and it's not that they don't agree with me but rather that they're telling me im an idiot for my opinion, so don't tell me that i'm naive. Of course I have much to learn, and I never said it was any worse here. do I not have the right to be angry for being called an idiot?

You mind expanding on what you mean by that?

I'm not saying that calling someone a fascist for holding a different view is at all right. However encouraging people to have a high degree of healthy scepticism about how events are presented to them and/or manipulated to suit an underlying agenda is nothing but good. Even if you flick through the different news channels you can see how news stories are reported differently depending on the political leanings of each particular channel. Again I'll clarify, I am not agreeing with any political standpoint here, but learning to be cynical about the information presented to you is an extremely good thing.
 
Politics aside...just so sorry for those people who lost Friends and/Family, good to know that at least they have a sense of solidarity today as they continue to grieve.

HWH- you're not tracking mud in here. Communism is a noble idea, but one doomed to failure because of simple economics & human nature. People will always yearn to be free, and will eventually fight that which removes individuality & free will.

You have the right to feel however you want. But you'll learn sooner or later that clinging to a flawed argument, is going to earn you a lot of personal disdain.
Ignorance is often mistaken for naivete. But by knee-jerkingly rejecting an opposing argument because the majority don't agree with you, doesn't give you much leeway in any even debate.

Agreed. I didn't mean facist, I was kind of angry, but of course i have a right to be skeptical, and I'm not angry people don't agree with me, I'm angry that people are putting me down for my opinion. It isn't right and they're thinking that they're better than me for their opinions, that's what I'm angry about.

Politics aside...just so sorry for those people who lost Friends and/Family, good to know that at least they have a sense of solidarity today as they continue to grieve.

Well put, have you seen what they're doing for the memorial? It's nice to see them turn ground zero into something meaningful for the families who lost their loved ones.

I'm not trying to win any argument. I don't care whether or not I win or not, but I think that putting me down for an opinion is way out of line, and that's why I'm angry. I'm ALWAYS open to other points of view, and I'm not rejecting opposing arguments, but i fail to see how my friend calling me an idiot is giving ANY proof. I totally understand what you're saying, but I can't really bring myself to fully agree with the majority in a case like this, and it's all a matter of fact and opinion.
 
New guy here! Just wanted too introduce myself and hopefully get some help from you wonderful darksiders

on topic: My days are all the same regardless of whether it is the week or weekend because all I do is work.

Hey! Welcome to BL and to TDS!! :)


Ix and all in the heated politics discussion- Each of you have great points. Ix, you know better than to be belittling others that have differing opinions. Do not do this in TDS (besides TDS, it is in the BLUA ....irrc it's number 4.) I understand where you are coming from- but the approach is poorly thought out. Let's discuss and agree to disagree. Name calling and the like are in poor taste. Let's change the direction of the politics discussion if it continues. :)
 
You folks remember that this is a social thread, right? Light hearted and conversational, not opinionated and confrontational.

So, to echo badfish....
So what are you all up to today?
 
Major clean up (I've been saying that for a week though). How about the rest of you?
 
I haven't worked in a month and supposed to be on disability but the states has not paid me a dime. So I am sitting at home broke hoping that they will get their shit together before rent is due.

I am out on stress leave and this is stressing me out more than work.
