Complexity is something that you assiduously avoid. You seek the false comfort of sophistry that gives you shelter against the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune that sometimes accompany human existence.


Which is ironic, as the Vietnam war avoided the complexity associated with human existence by simply assigning everyone a number before shipping them out like cattle.

However, I must say I enjoy how you're free to make personal jabs without a slap on the wrists, unlike myself, because I am not a member of the right-winged, self-motivated "GAWD BLESS AMERIKA AND CONDEMN DISRESPEKT" club that basically provides the same duties for this website that unsophisticated, sexually repressed jocks do for public high schools across America.

Click to reveal..


First of all not everyone was assigned a number stupid. Age, gender, handicapped, and prior military service exemptions (among others) were still retained. And not everyone who was assigned a number was inducted. Many of those who were assigned ended up assigned to billets other than Vietnam. But all were trained to be effective in whatever theater they served.

You are not a member of anything; you apparently stand for nothing; you apparently have fought for nothing. You simply exercise your mouth, or, on this Board, your fingers.

Try taking up a weapon and standing a post for something that requires more than just getting out of bed in the morning.


Stupid? Honestly, how old are you?

Oh, and is anyone else reminded of:


Violence isn't the end all be all Lt. Kilgore.


Hey, how's it going?

What the fuck is that, a question? It doesn't make sense. How old are you?

And here's me telling a friend over a pint the other day that, in my experience, Americans are more articulate than Brits. (I've been banned once for calling you a retard (even though I was jokingly quoting The Sopranos), so I won't do it again).

Remember, "whether it is coffee or pizza or pasta or dog meat or pig crap, the best is available obviously in Newyork."

And I promise that we won't forget to wear our "bowling shirts and suit pants, drink red wine, grease our hair (for those who still have some left), use Itlaian slang words, talk about respect and order stuffed shells too!!!!!!!"

Your attempts at proud nostalgia are contrived at best. Perhaps that was your attempt.

No need to parody yourself; I've done it for you. Repeating what I've said, and putting it in quotation marks, doesn't make you any more witty than I was (not that I was witty in the first place). That you even knew I was parodying you in my signature means you're well aware of your ignorant and arrogant and whatever else use of the winking smiley. Was wondering what would bring you out of your conservative shell, though.

Ban me if you dare, Cardi; and if you do, I know it won't be you, but either SC and JG. Because, let's be fucking honest here, you haven't got a piss of a vagina to say in response to me, without sounding old.

(YEAH!!!!)

(And, if I am banned because of this post, it'll only be because you've met the Moderators. And I might, via MySpace, be thanked for "taking one for the team", like last time.)

This thread has obviously gone way off topic, so it's being closed.

I suggest that we stop with the personal attacks as well. Remember that rule? Good. Thanks.



I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey! tongue lol
