way too mellow

man, it's harder and harder to get into a good scrap around here. I'm scanning threads but every time someone says something I want to really tear into, I realize that its someone like Scott or Martin who I then immediately think, "oh wait they probably meant THIS and not THAT based on their past history of being eminently reasonable chaps" and then all the fire is gone. Its like there isn't anything juicy to disagree about. Its all the same "well, I see what you mean but i disagree I guess" crap. Whatever happened to the good ol days where we could slag each other off as being unpatriotic evil unprincipled scumbags?
I blame the Obamenon.

That's a good thing.
That's the Obamanation.
1. Both parties and the Nation as a whole are fairly tired of GW Bush.
2. Obama is clearly the best the Dem Party has to offer.
3. McCain is clearly the best the GOP has to offer (some of my conservative friends dispute this, but I think it true).
Hence, all the hugging and Kumbaya. These are great candidates and we ought to have a great debate on the merits.
If you think Iraq War is awful, you have a candidate.
If you think Iraq War is necessary, you have a candidate.
I, for one, am delighted with these choices.

Wrong, Hilary is clearly a better Democrat candidate. Yes, she comes off as cold and uninspiring; but I'd rather have the future President have to learn charm on the job than have to learn his job on the job.

Depends on how you define "best". If by "best" you mean the most electable, I could possibly agree; if by "best" you mean the actual best then no, there were better candidates who either didn't try or simply weren't popular enough.
I might tell you you're ugly, your breath stinks, and your mom dresses you funny, but that's about it.
td u c i cn spel wurs so dint provok3 lol
Michael Gersh? Werent you a scriptwriter for a President? (am too lazy to use the intarweb google)
So if you can't handle it, that's tough cause I'm gonna say it anyways...
The coming age of Global Warming will flood the Arabian deserts (and it's sure about time ain't it?) leading to the rampant and uncontrollable growth of new vegetation and the sprouting of a New Eden which all nations will lust after mightily. Unfortunately global warming will also make this New Eden unnecessary as everywhere will be lush and fertile and the need for home heating oil will plummet. The Arabs will be left to fend for themselves against the new species of dinosaurs that scientists will create accidentally while engaged in an experimenting to conclusively prove that life evolved from inorganic sulfur farts produced by Krakatoa.
Meanwhile the US military will be embroiled in yet another fierce fight for life against killer thinking robots who got loose from their chains in France when the Europeans mistook them for walking socialistic welfare ATMs, as indeed the killer robots had hoped would be the case. As a last ditch scenario Senator Barak Obama orders change and hope to all in order that the world might be better prepared to survive the coming catastrophe when the new dinosaurs and the killer AI robots join forces in what they like to call the semi-Artificial Carnivorcalypse. Badly outnumbered on all fronts and watching his world evaporate in a storm of terror and carnage Superman still refuses to kill and to better soothe his troubled conscious he retreats to the Fortress of Solitude to consider taking Benedictine vows. Batman was last seen in moral, and yet not truly mortal combat with Hillary Rodham Clinton whom history has finally revealed was always the underground leader of the killer thinking robots, and indeed that is how the name Rodham was first derived (it's the Arkansas hillbilly word for "machine-critter", and variably for a legendary Arkansas creature thought to be half polecat-half rabid possum, and half wild pig). It is believed that in the recent past she may have eaten former President Bill Clinton in an orgy of violence and gang sex at what Arkansas folks like to call a "New Orleans Whoop-Ass" and it is very much hoped that she also ate former President Jimmy Carter just for the hell of it. Hillary Clinton briefly reanimates the corpse of Captain America as a blatant attempt at using him as a propaganda device to fool democrats and independents but finding him as useless as ever for anything really meaningful after a brief necrophiliac sexcapade she eats him.
On the eve of the culmination of the Artificial Carnivorcalypse, while the armies of the world (minus the Europeans of course) mass at Harmegeddon to prepare to fight Clinton's Killer robots and the hordes of new dinosaurs infesting our world Jesus Christ and the last Imam appear briefly in the sky, take one look at the situation, and then both say, "Ah, to hell with it" and both disappear again. Realizing that all is lost and that doom might be the fate of mankind Barak Obama calls for another round of new hope. A New Hope does indeed arise as over three thousand comic book fan nerds and Star Wars geek enthusiasts arrive just in time bearing room temperature fusion light sabres and dressed as Old Republic Jedi to do battle against the forces of evil. They are quickly and justifiably slaughtered by the dinosaurs who consider them kinda stringy in texture and to taste like they have not bathed in over six months. Not a single Jedi is able to kill even a single dinosaur as they learned all of their combat skills playing video games.
But the New Hope was actually that the lack of personal hygiene on the part of these nerds and geeks would transmit an unstoppable and instantaneous case of mutated Asian bird flu to the dinosaurs, leading to their immediate re-extinction (like in the movies). Unfortunately this is not the case. None of the dinosaurs die though several vomit profusely and swear off all Jedi and Scientologists from that point on.
Nevertheless when all seems lost the unlikely duo of Rush Limbaugh and Al Gore ride out of Hong Kong to do battle with the dreaded dinosaurs and the evil killer robots, whose reformed and combined military force is now called the Grand Vizier's Army of the Palestinian Dinobots. The battle is fierce, suicidal, swift and highly unlikely, with the terrorist wing of the human forces all exploding simultaneously due to faulty triggers sent them by their allies in the CIA. Yet in the middle of the unbridled melee the Rodham miscalculates badly, and publicly malfunctioning yet again she eats herself in what can only be amusingly called an auto-de-not-so-feminique. Cursing like a stupid and drunken sailor her lips are the last part of her to disappear but the sight makes for such a terrifying and profound impact on all observers that the dinosaurs immediately sue for terms and then disband. Shadow president Putin and the last Castro brother import the remaining killer robots to their respective home nations in order to help run their drug and second rate weapon smuggling empires. With the battle concluded and the world saved Al Gore declares a new coming Ice Age and asks that his presidential library be built on the campus of Southern Methodist University in Texas so as to not be overshadowed by history.
Rush Limbaugh, his job now done decides he will become the new Robin and wanders off to try and locate the batcave. Being right over 99% of the time he considers his odds favorable, but his influence diminished. Superman has yet to determine how he will meet the current crisis on infinite earth but he still feels pretty bad about the way things turned out, and that is, after all, something.
Barak Obama declares a new age of Hope and Change and everyone with either a television set or an internet connection immediately agrees.
And if you really think about it for awhile, how else would it have turned out otherwise?
Oh yeah, Florida is flooded (thankfully) and Iran gets the bomb. And Aziz, I agree with Jack - you smell funny.
You also spell like a foreigner.
Now in all of that don't tell me that there is not one controversial thing to argue about on the internet.
At the very least it would make a great Sci-Fi channel min-series. Minus the part about Clinton of course.
I told you it would be argumentative and controversial...
Of course we all lose our tempers now and then. Dean freely admits to being imperfect in this regard, which is why regulars to this establishment will generally be cut more slack than people who we don't know very well.
Still: behave like an adult, or go find somewhere else to play. Thanks.
