Ted's Comments

Funny how Change is always the cry of the politicians, but when they get in, only the right-wingers actually seem to do anything - even the wrong things are something.

Hillary's hubbie had two terms already to make his changes - did he actually advance on the promises he made? I think he set the cause of women's rights back into the 50's.

Geez. Let's crucify Alex. This ain't a newspaper, you know. He's allowed to have his opinion. Maybe it was a little injudicious of him to speculate, but...

The article implies that the husband and wife are not living together. The wife filed a restraining order to keep him from seeing the children.

It sounds like there's an ongoing situation, and that the wife could very possibly have exaggerated or misconstrued the situation. That's not a sexist thing to say.

All in all, tying up the kid is still a weird thing to do.

The Omega Point was flaky.

The "divine intervention" one wasn't so much about an actual divine intervention, but about what might happen if religious zealots obtain access to really powerful weaponry.

Hopefully, these weren't listed in order of likelihood, since alien attack was above ecosystem collapse.

That sounds like he's got a really bad dependency building up there. I hope he's getting other treatment, too.

I don't get your bits and pieces comment, vonskip. How would having a cat help out in that sort of situation...?

According to dude, the cat absorbs a lot of his stress. I imagine it's more the presence of the cat that helps.

Little weird, but if it keeps him from going over the edge in public, what the heck...

Thought I'd check this one more time.

Really, tedwilson. I gave you an objective reason before; you simply chose to pass it off. Ignoring perfectly valid reasons is counterproductive and does nothing to strengthen your own argument.

It's okay because scammers are doing something despicably and horribly wrong, and the scambaiter's response is not harming that person in any way. The worst they've done is take up the time of somebody who would otherwise be committing illegal and immoral acts, and made them a little angry.

Tell me how exactly this scammer was harmed otherwise. You tell me I don't know a single thing about people who have been scammed, or if the scammer has even been successful. Well, neither do you know anything about the scammer. I know that innocent people get bilked all the time by con artists, and treating one con artist like this is not nearly enough of the punishment he or she deserves.

I drew a conclusion about your attitude from your comments. You're absolutely right; I don't know you. You may be a nice person, despite the condescension. If the pickle comment bothered you, I apologize. But hey, it ain't debate club, here. You're going to get all kinds of responses, mostly casual.

You can reply if you want, but I've posted my opinion, and I already know yours. You may not hear from anybody else, but good luck with it.

Carruthers, I think you may be onto something. He's accused me of name-calling now. He doesn't have to be a charmer with the ladies, though - I think he gets off on arguing with us.

He really can't see how flawed and outdated his ideas are. I'd feel sorry for him if I didn't think he was trolling.

No, not weak. Very apt. Tedwilson's comments are uptight, condescending, and holier-than-thou.

Not mature? I didn't claim to be mature.

Personal attack? Well, I suppose if these folks are doing serious harm to that poor single mom in Nigeria, just trying to make ends meet the best way she knows how, I suppose you could blow that out of proportion, too. Sure, why not?
