Sure, it's easy when you confuse your imaginary demons with reality :) And make up stuff about "intelligence", and things. Right?

I guess I'm lazy.

Aside from another in the extremely long list of Middle Eastern hate crimes against women, this is a pretty awesome thread.

That's what happens when you get "people that don't belong here" posting stuff that results in exposing the intolerance of the angry sub-tribe.

DaTruth makes up stuff that I didn't say, using that as an alleged example of me making stuff up (yeah, crazy, huh?)

Dell mocks those that dare not share his blanket dislike of all things Muslim - because mocking tolerance greater than his is a good thing in his oh-so-tolerant world.

Cannon gets angry that people that dare not share his political views post those other views here.

Whew. Yeah. They hate that.

According to the psychology today blog, "Liberals had more gray matter at least in the anterior cingulate cortex, a region of the brain that helps people cope with complexity." Also according to that blog, "The liberal party is generally more intellectual and the conservative party is more anti-intellectual."

Hey Riot, have you jumped to any more conclusions about bridge accidents?

Unfortunately, Riot thinks that she is being persecuted when someone points out the holes in her "supporting" evidence.

Not like you just jumping to the wrong conclusion that "intellectual" means the same as "intelligence", above; or your other wrong conclusion that the article said having a big amygdala means one is less intelligent, which it did not in the least. The emotions mentioned were fear, anxiety or aggression.

Which one are you?

What do you have to say about jumping to conclusions, again? :D

Seriously? You have that limited an ability to understand what you read? Wow! :eek:

Let's make this clear: No, I don't feel persecuted. You apparently don't know the meaning of that word. Posting observations about other people is not "feeling persecuted".

I am laughing at you. Because you said the study said something it did not. While lecturing me on jumping to conclusions. That's pretty funny stuff.

But you clearly live in this fantasy world where your mind makes up angry stuff and assumptions about other people. Again: another giant amydgala speaks. Well done!

See, people don't like other people all the time. It's common for some people not to like some other people, for whatever reasons. Differing political views is a big one. But to watch you three jump through hoops to try and justify your not liking me, is simply amazing. I guess it makes you feel better about yourselves, to gang together? Believe me - I don't mind that you don't like me. It's okay - go right ahead. You can be as intolerant of others as you like. You just don't like it being pointed out.

LOL, Riot, you stumble on your own feet.

You were the one who first used the word "intelligence," not I.

I never said the article mentioned intelligence, you did. In fact, what I originally said was that you cited the article as proof that you are smarter than the rest of us. Guilty conscience, eh Riot?

No, I said the article did not mention intelligence, that you were mistaken thinking it did.

Seriously - I feel sorry for your complete lack of reading comprehension. Why don't you quote where I said the article talked about intelligence, and where I used it as proof that I thought I was smarter than the rest of you?

Because I never said that, nor do I feel that. See? There you go, making things up again. I do not think I am smarter than you. Got that?

I posted the article as it had an interesting point that "conservative brains" tend to demonstrate more fear, aggression and anxiety. It makes zero assumptions about intelligence, and I didn't say it did. You did.

I think that should point out to you that your creative paranoia is pretty significant. Wow: fear, aggression and anxiety! How about that!

[quote=Riot;835257]I feel sorry for your lack of reading comprehension and your distorted worldview.

Also, where in "presenting scientific proof that she is smarter than those who disagree with her" do I use the word "intelligence."

Alas. I do not think I am smarter than you, nor do I think I am smarter than those I disagree with.

Guess that makes your argument full of paranoic musings.

I have no doubt that I am smarter than you, more intelligent, and more intellectual.

You confuse being able to find links with knowledge of a subject.

Your reading comprehension gives your contention about yourself all the support it needs :tro:

Nope. Not in the least. Just another silly false assumption on your part, huh? It's weird you are so moved to make stuff up about other people out of thin air. Why do you think you repeatedly do that?

Yawn.

This would be a much better example of a lie than what you accused others in this thread of doing.

FTFY ;)

Assumptions are often true. And I have no anger about your ineptitude regardless of how unbecoming it can be. You are giving yourself far too much credit. As usual.

But more often just assumptions.

It's pretty funny that you are arguing that you know what I think and how I feel better than I do. But hey, assumptions! Or un-American buffoons. It gets confusing at times.

I would guess (better wording?) that the vast majority of people who read these threads now want to light themselves on fire but before they do would agree that you do indeed think that you are smarter than everyone who disagrees with you (and even the few that agree with you as well). The "assumption" that we would make is based upon the thousands of posts that you have made here. Perhaps we all have you read wrong...but I doubt it.

So you are still arguing that you know what I think and how I feel better than I do. And if I say differently, I am wrong?

Wow - hard to argue with that stellar logic :D

Assumptions! Or un-American buffoons. I'll go with ... intolerant un-American buffoon, thanks!

Here's a cheer to all the people who read these threads, that are appalled at the repeated intolerance some here show, the nastiness, and the sheer rudeness expressed by the narrow-minded and bigoted. Perhaps we all have some of you read wrong ... but I doubt it.

Who are we to judge these people? Imposing our morals on them shows typical American arrogance. We have only been around for 300 years or so and we judge these ancient people whose customs are thousands of years old? Perhaps your anti-muslim discrimination and racism kicking in again?



It took a while but I knew it was only a matter of time. Just a little disappointed that you didn't slip strawman in there somewhere.

Poor you! How in the world could anybody possibly think you were intolerant of other people's views? :eek:

Where do you come up with this stuff?

Why, certainly not by reading your posts! :D

Thank you for admitting that.

C'mon this is too easy...

Didn't we have slavery 160 years ago? Yeah? So what gives us the right to force our beliefs and values on other countries?

It's hypocritical. You can't save the world and you cannot change strangers.

I'm sick of the romanticism. Read a history book. We aren't the saviors of humanity.

haha i call bullshit.

:tro::tro::tro:

I'm going to try and make it to Tampa for the party week!!! well.. at least Saturdays races! Hopefully Friday also!

All I wanted to do is hang a man from his balls till he starves.

Riot you need to work out that guilt you’re so evidently harboring in another forum, like a therapist’s office. Just mention Obamacare when scheduling for an extra gift.

OK I’m sorry you’re this way.

That good enough?

That's a start Dell, but I believe the call was for an apology to the board. How dare you inject sarcasm into a thread!

We're still waiting.

AWESOME!!

years ago my husband got in trouble for calling his younger brother stupid. his mother demanded he apologize, so he did.

he said 'i'm sorry you're stupid'. now that's an apology!

The giant horse trainer injected sarcasm and I thought it was a Riot imitation.

‘Riot in a sensible political discussion’ is sarcasm on its own.

I was hanging out with a group of people a few months ago.. one guy had stepped on a nail and it went through his foot, so he had his foot wrapped up and in a boot. His brother accidentely stepped on the guys bum foot. After the cursing was done his brother thoughfully told him "dude, you need to watch where you keep your foot!"

I am offering up an blanket apology to all of the fine members of the board and those nameless/faceless emailers for anything I may have ever said or will say that may or may not offend anyone in any manner.

However if you have reached this point in this thread you may think about apologizing to yourself for getting this far.

That's better.

I'm going to go light myself on fire now.

Guilty..only been reading and i am getting slap happy...Is it over now?..:zz:
Can we hammer riot on another subject....please...:D

I couldn't get past page 2..............
