Except maybe OW confusing the NRA lobbying efforts for consensus.  Pretty sure that most gun owners, let alone the general public, are in favor of gun control.
Sorry, I'll rephrase. You're not with the majority of political influence. Also, have a relevant poll. Apparently there is a slight majority in favour of stricter gun control, which has remained roughly steady over the past ~ten years, and is remarkably smaller than it was last century.

...

I know some opinions can be held by many, but the near-plagiarism I have seen looks like either a massive troll or some effect of mass psychology.
Hahahahaha

We need some kind of unintentional Pathos joke awards

The "Not Yet Pathos" award?

Cuz if he WERE Pathos, then it would have been intentional.

Yeah, why would Pathos give himself an award?

Even if you found a suitable opening, I doubt it would prove all too satisfying. And it might leave some nasty wounds, depending on the moral high ground's geology.

I keep seeing the same arguments over and over again. It is really annoying. The gun arguments; the should homosexuals be embraced by society arguments; they're so suspiciously similar. I know some opinions can be held by many, but the near-plagiarism I have seen looks like either a massive troll or some effect of mass psychology.
Regarding plagiarism: where from? Previous pages? outside of this forum? Enlighten me.

Hey Bork?  Do you mind if everybody calls you Bork, because five letters is way too long for an acronymization and...Whatever


If it is intentionally meanspirited or demeaning, yes. If not, I don't object.

But seriously.

It's considered good etiquette to use the edit button instead of doubleposting like you just did.  Unless you're in a game of Mafia.


Serious, slightly worried question: Does it hurt people, wear out the forum hardware, or cost Tarn Adams a lot of money? If so, I will stop immediately.

... Or there's an obvious argument to be made. I mean really, I see a lot of people spelling arguments as arguments, just like you did. That strikes me as pretty suspicious. Why do you spell it like everyone else?
Also for crying out loud what is it with people misspelling tenets (of faith) as tenants (of houses)?
Hmm.... a failure of self awareness on my part. It is due to socialization.

But...Yeah MSH is right, that's just...Wrong.
I was, of course, referring to the members of houses of faiths. /selfservingreframing

A'ight, Bork you are.

Nah, it's just kinda local netiquette to not post twice in a row, unless (you're [making a monumentally huge post/a GM]/it's been a month or so.)

Huh.

This thread is now a drinking game. Any time anyone, but especially Bork, writes psychological, you must drink.

But how can we discuss the effects of accordion music upon gun owners without using a now-verboten word?

I treat the politics threads like a drinking game via LW and OW shitposts.

Is good.
