An evening at Ishes's place.

Careful.

He'll pull the table cloth on you.

I'll still have my knife...



... ain't that a daisy.

Damn.

There goes that trick.

You seem so absolute.

Could we reasonably talk about a system that provides for people's health care?

Or would we throw our drinks in each other's faces.

That would be a waste of perfectly good boxed wine.

I don't know about all of it but "in vino veritas" is not my understanding of the phrase?

It's funny, I just posted that phrase on a friends status last night...don't remember what she posted to make me say that.

I didn't remember that line in the movie.

I'd be interested in your translation of the scene.

And whether the phrases should have been constructed as they were?

Curly Bill: [takes a bill with Wyatt's signature from a customer and throws it on the faro table] Wyatt Earp, huh? I heard of you.
Ike Clanton: Listen, Mr. Kansas Law Dog. Law don't go around here. Savvy?
Wyatt Earp: I'm retired.
Curly Bill: Good. That's real good.
Ike Clanton: Yeah, that's good, Mr. Law Dog, 'cause law don't go around here.
Wyatt Earp: I heard you the first time.
[flips a card]
Wyatt Earp: Winner to the King, five hundred dollars.
Curly Bill: Shut up, Ike.
Johnny Ringo: [Ringo steps up to Doc] And you must be Doc Holliday.
Doc Holliday: That's the rumor.
Johnny Ringo: You retired too?
Doc Holliday: Not me. I'm in my prime.
Johnny Ringo: Yeah, you look it.
Doc Holliday: And you must be Ringo. Look, darling, Johnny Ringo. The deadliest pistoleer since Wild Bill, they say. What do you think, darling? Should I hate him?
Kate: You don't even know him.
Doc Holliday: Yes, but there's just something about him. Something around the eyes, I don't know, reminds me of... me. No. I'm sure of it, I hate him.
Wyatt Earp: [to Ringo] He's drunk.
Doc Holliday: In vino veritas.
["In wine is truth" meaning: "When I'm drinking, I speak my mind"]
Johnny Ringo: Age quod agis.
["Do what you do" meaning: "Do what you do best"]
Doc Holliday: Credat Judaeus apella, non ego.
["The Jew Apella may believe it, not I" meaning: "I don't believe drinking is what I do best."]
Johnny Ringo: [pats his gun] Eventus stultorum magister.
["Events are the teachers of fools" meaning: "Fools have to learn by experience"]
Doc Holliday: [gives a Cheshire cat smile] In pace requiescat.
["Rest in peace" meaning: "It's your funeral!"]
Tombstone Marshal Fred White: Come on boys. We don't want any trouble in here. Not in any language.
Doc Holliday: Evidently Mr. Ringo's an educated man. Now I really hate him.

I'm always amazed when I see people brave enough to post their real lives here but then I remember patient1 posting about how this place used to be such a community at some point. These pics serve as a nice reminder of that post.

Too bad that there are so many Throbs that believe you are stupid to post anything about your private life and that whatever you post is fair game to be used in as hateful a manner as possible...

You mean like when miles posted Rob's kids pics?

 

[4est_4est_Gump]

Never happened, but it was fun watching him get all wound up and outraged over something not half as bad as his claim that the only reason I adopted my gook was incest.

 

[Ishmael]

Threads like these are like non-light to cockroaches.

Indeed...

Yeah, that is offensive and in poor taste (I can't imagine how hurtful it must be for a parent to have to read something like that) but it's not posting information. I'm not saying that Rob's behaviour should be excused just that someone did something far more shitty to him by posting his kids pics.

So are you the dark haired one? If so, you look so serene, a far cry from the hatred that shines from your anti Muslim/immigrants threads. Still curious on your ethnicity.

In 13 years of posting I can attest that nothing of that sort ever happened. Ever.

All of my real friends here know which is me, and none of us give a rats ass about you.

I was having a discussion with Zumi the other day. In the course of the discussion I shared something personal. He politely reminded that people tend to use that sort of thing as cannon-fodder here.

Never-the-less I went on to post some things about the challenges my youngest faces. Nothing came of it. Anyone that would say something in that situation I feel harms themselves far more than me.

Unrelated to this discussion I ended up removing that on the principle that you don't leave a loaded handgun around the mentally ill. Sad, really.

It doesn't hurt me; it is just another example of what the modern American Democrat has become and it makes me feel bad for Democrats, a sense of Fremdschämen.

People just do not get it that Throb takes little snippets out of context, like my remarks to you about my early retirement, and then turns it into a repeated lie of A_J's on unemployment and he just keeps repeating it until someone like Adre picks up on it and then tries to use it as a personal attack on me to make a political point.

He is a pathological liar and probably a sociopath or psychopath to boot.

With that particular lie, that faked personal information, he tried to use all of the feelings of the sympathetic to win a shitty little political spat with miles. I would call the coward a piece of shit, but shit actually has some useful purposes...

 

[Wrong Element]

query...


Is this one of those pols that show no other interests?

Yeah. How boring would that be?

Oh, that's right. I'm on Ignore.

A little wine, a little beer. The possibilities are endless.

At this point, I was getting worried what the other pictures were going to show.

I usually respect my elders but I'm going to throw that out the window for this one.

You are just hot pissy upset because I told the truth about you and your vicious hatred against immigrants and your comparison of Muslims to roaches. And you have the nerve to look like you just hopped out of the boat yourself.

You fucking racist piece of pig shit, you and all your trashy, bitter friends.

I often feel that a lot of our angry, hateful liberals somehow have a defective gene, let's call it the Peter Pan gene, that precludes their ability to fully mature into a decent human being...
