Debating as opposed to arguing or trolling or joking
How annoying do you find it when someone hijacks a reasonably serious debate by simply mocking one of the other people involved? I ask partly becuase I freely admit that I am very, very often guilty of this - to the point that I was quite certain it would get me tossed out of this group a few times. I see this as a rather…

Democrats are by nature lying poopyheads
I know I'll take some abuse for this, but I think it's important that we get it out there. Now I'm not talking about your garden variety Dem. Sure, they are incapable of telling the truth, but I'm really after your hard core commies here. The ones who are out to subvert the God-give glory of this Christianical nation with…

Let's Fix Elections and by Extension the Gubmint!
I think most of us would agree - if you don't *kitten* off, we'll fight after school behind the band shell - that politics and elections in this country are kinda ****ed. We probably have vastly different ideas on how we got here and who's to blame, etc, etc, blah, blah f*cking blah. Instead of re-hashing for the…

Is it right to "out" someone who espouses anti-gay hate?
Stolen shamelessly from John Aravosis' AmericaBlog - Gay. http://gay.americablog.com/2012/08/is-it-right-to-out-anti-gay-evangelical.html?m=1 My personal feeling is that when someone is spewing hate while indulging in the exact behavior which they condemn that they should be explosed as the hypocrites that they are. On the…

Help! Mutual friends! Cannibals! Poop!
Oh my fellow MFPs (that's My Fitness Pals as opposed to MFPers which would be My Fitness Palers which makes little or no sense grammatically and makes the baby Jesus weep), I am locked on the horns of a dilemma of the worst sort! It's become clear to me that one or my of my friends might not like one or more of my other…

Sleeping with my wife ticks me off
Don't get me wrong, I love my wife and I think she and I will be together for a good long time. Like at least the end of the month or something. But the problem is in the bedroom, or as some people call it, the bood war! Well, it sure as heckfore IS a war, I tell you what. We both work. I work a lot longer than she does…

For the Parents - Anatomical Terminology
This was prompted by the Sleeping Naked thread and the concerns some there had for their children seeing them naked. I'm naked all the time in my house. I sleep naked. Sometimes I get up and stumble to the kitchen and make coffee naked. I wander around looking for clothes naked. Sometimes after working out in the bsement I…

How do you respond to posts seeking advice?
On any forum you see a lot of posts asking for advice ranging from "Do you think my significant other is cheating on me?" to "Should I eat back my exercise calories?" to "Do you have any advice for how to treat a sucking chest wound?" to "Does this picture show off my vajazzling?" to "Have you accepted Jesus H. Christ as…

What is your criteria for reporting a topic or comment?
Since I have been reported a few times and have now embraced the practice, I thought I would ask other people: What makes you report someone's comment or topic?

Sometimes I forget...
I love MFP. I love the people I have met, the community they have built for themselves and welcomed me into, the support, the fun, everything. But sometimes I forget or don't really notice where someone has come from or how far they have come. I just am having too much fun chatting with them. I focus on their current…

Duckface photos: a public service announcement
No one looks good doing them. They're not cute. They're not sexy. They ALWAYS look stupid. Stop taking them. Delete the ones you have. Slap anyone around you who tries to pose that way. Need proof? Look here: http://antiduckface.com/ This has been a SwannySez public service announcement.

Chit-chat, fun, and games
I want you to read the following words one at a time. Out loud. "chit-chat" "fun" "games" These words define this area of the forum. A place for all of the above. Look at the other areas of the forum. They are pretty specific. I think it's pretty smart and generous for the administrators of this website to have created an…

WOMEN...what size would you want your man?
Since there's a thread asking for men's opinion on their preferred size and since someone there suggested it: well girls step right up. Full disclosure? I don't really give a crap what anybody thinks of the way I look other than me. I'm just selfish that way.

When is it permissable to slaughter a co-worker like a sacri
I say co-worker, but I really mean superior as he's a senior vice-president. Hi. I'm Swanny and I'm an alcoholic. I've been sober July of 2011 at which time I also quit smoking. I just had a SVP come sit in my office fresh from his morning cigar, reeking of cigar smoke, and ramble on for ten minutes about the wonders of…
