    Yeah, we'll never know what "rules" were broken. It's rather a rather arbitrary/selective/secretive process. But, whatever, it is what it is.

    They were banned for repeated personal insults.

    I'm sure they were. Personally, I wouldn't know anything about that, though.

    Anyway, nothing to see here, folks.

    I know why Bodyman was banned. I should say, I think I know because I'm not sure he was even banned and I hope not. Bodyman responded to a flurry of posts I addressed to him that I truly regret. I blame myself for a couple low blows that led him to explode. My bad.
    I think Marzy may be a little racist which is really tragic because otherwise he's a great guy. I'd trust Marzy to return my wallet if I accidentally lost it at his house and he were to find it. He's extremely honest and good natured so he's not all bad.

    Trump is a sociopath but can't cook because he needs to be waited on 24/7 so he is all bad.

    By the way, I never heard of "counter culture" until this thread. How did the expression come into being?

    Apparently, my little stab at sarcasm was lost on you. Meaning, if I had a dime for every time I was insulted in this place I'd be long retired by now. It used to bug me. Now, I pretty much ignore them or exchange insults with some form of sarcasm and/or flippancy. Oh, and now that we've pretty much moved on from Trump, the regularity of said insults has decreased commensurately.

    I'm now the Mr. Rogers of the neighborhood. Heh.

    Good to hear but with Trump supporters numbering 53% of Republicans, I don't think it's yet time to move on.

    I've said in here before, at this point, I'd be more inclined to vote for DeSantis, but we'll have to see.

    At any rate, I'm much looking forward to getting together with you.

    In Myanmar, democracy was cancelled when military overthrew elected government, put leaders in jail. Hundreds of citizens have been cancelled, shot and killed while protesting. Funny how litt

    But do please get outraged about a fake potato.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Timothy Leary and George Carlin were considered "counterculture" long before Boy George. I'm pretty sure the term began in the 1960s (though the concept can be applied pretty much throughout human history).

    I tend to ignore the “celebrity” opinions I disagree with yet still can enjoy their entertaining me. I don’t watch The News so I’m not sure what this about.
