A little about me.
 
I like to talk about current events, politics and life in general.
I'm a tech junkie.
Twice in the last 10 years I changed PC's faster than I changed my underwear.

I'm here because the place I called home for over a decade decided that politics was no longer welcome there because, to be completely honest, some people couldn't put on their big boy pants and consider the extremes of a position and decided to report every single post and carried on arguments outside of that thread..

TBH that was a little heart breaking.
I'm hoping to get at least one person to join here but he walked out of that site all at once. I just hope he goes on to see my PM's

I also like to talk about life.
I'm a people person introvert.

I kinda blame myself for the start of the demise there because I said

If Trump got assassinated I'd like to watch it for the entertainment of it. I neither endorse the act nor would I conspire to do so, not only for Trump, for any human being.... But if it did happen I would be extremely entertained by it
Pretty sure that was the first reported post by a new member... Then it didn't seem to matter what was said the newer people just kept reporting until the mods didn't feel like dealing with it anymore.

The problem was we were used to the old mods... They would tell people to put on your big boy pants or don't go on the thread.

Anyways... I'm rude, liberal...I just walked into your house..I sat down.. I'm eating Cheetos on your white couch.. What's up?

As long as your not "going commando" and leaving skid marks on the Chippendale upholstery, that's disgusting!

LoL...
It's really nice to find a place like this.

Dont recall seeing your mention of the Blotus "over there", but I will chill a bottle of sparkling grape nectar for his removal by whatever means, and get the National ensign out for display from storage, where it went in 2016.

Blotus over there?

Actually, we were hoping that you were a right winger. There’s a dearth of them here and it’s not as much fun without them to harass.

Combine bluster, bloviation, potus = Blotus. You mentioned his Exlaxency over there in AK?

I'm working on it... LoL
I know the ultimate Conservative.
He will argue any and I mean any Conservative point even when he disagrees with it vehemently.

He will have you bashing your head trying to get him to understand..

He's the other reason TPU won't allow politics anymore.
I consider him my best online friend.
We agree on very little politically but outside of that get along great.

Nope I have never argued on AK.
I think...
I know that AK has been suggested to people in TPU's audiophile thread.
Someone named Cranky and I think Bumblebee

There's a logic problem in there. Particularly if he's arguing something he doesn't actually agree with, there would seem to be no hope whatsoever of 'getting him to understand.'

I know intellectually that people are defending their culture, their identity, their holy faith, their masculine dominance, etc, etc, and They Won't Back Down when all that is on the line. But the things they do instead still make me crazy. I hate debate tricks.
