Close to 5 pages of mental flossing... hmm

I disagree with you Ron while words did play a part in starting every conflict, World War One was started when the Archduke Franz Ferdinand was assassinated and World War Two was started with the invasion of Poland. The war in Afghanistan started after some extremists parked two planes in the WTC.

Do you get where I'm going with this? Your comment regarding words starting conflicts holds no water as it was the actions which started the conflict not the posturing by our leaders leading up to the actions

Those actions didn't happen spontaneously. At some point, words were spoken that started it all...
...people talked, people planned, and people executed their talked about plans.
Even the lone gunman has/is/will be (partial assumption) motivated by the words that someone spoke, whether or not but usually that has led to the harm of others.

You gave examples of events that occurred because people talked, planned, and carried out those plans.
Whatever motivated these actors, the very beginnings started with words.
My view may seem extremely simplified, because it is that simple.
The complexities come later, as words manifest into actions... from before the Crusades to current day world conflicts at all levels, to interpersonal relationships (or a lack thereof).
Words, they've been motivating human existence since the first one that was uttered from the dark depths of caves. (poetic assumption)
Lastly, what started this conversation, if I may be so bold as to define these four pages as a conversation, were words.
Words that were used, from any rational perspective, to communicate a message without the intent nor expectation to incite... and yet here we are.

I am quite able and more than willing to continue this topic of conversation without feeling the need to humiliate, denigrate, or otherwise do harm with my words.
Let's see how this all plays out...

Do you ever get tired of hearing yourself whine? Who put you in charge? Everyone knows you want to control what people post and how they post it. Just stop and get a new act... it's mind numbing repetitive and boring as fuck.

Do I get tired? Nope...
Nobody put me in charge... I'm voicing my opinion, just like you.
Mind numbing? What, too much for you to handle? Is it like experience brain freeze from eating a snow cone too fast on a hot day?
I think perhaps it is you that needs to stop and get a new act. Swooping down from the rafters or crawling up from under a bridge to shark me... come on man, come on..

Lastly, thank you for identifying yourself as someone I'd just as soon avoid, and I will.
Now then, tot ziens, but not really.
Peace and good will...

I reckon the world would be a much better place if only people would THINK

Before you speak (or write): THINK.
T is it True?
H is it Helpful?
I is it Inspiring?
N is it Necessary?
K is it Kind?

Your words have immeasurable power. Use them with care.

Depressing thread

..... and meanwhile back to the original post ..... I'll look forward to saying hello to you again Stan during this years 4/20 weekend.
Teck it steady mi lad

Your first response to USBL:

Uncle Ron wrote: I've only met you twice, and you seemed like a reasonable person, so why the fuck stir up shit?
Seriously, after all the bullshit this forum has been through, with a few people venting their inner demons and insecurities, why do you feel compelled to join them?
No doubt most regulars in the forum are fully aware of the dislike some have for Stan, however most seemed to have moved on... perhaps you should as well?
As a teenager, I learned a technique of handling myself when dealing with personality conflicts - I minimize my exposure to those people, and I don't think or talk about them. Given the geographical separation, probably minimal shared associations, no contact other than this forum... the technique I speak of should work for you, almost too easy actually. The choice is yours, always has been...
Have a great weekend ya'll...

Either voicing an opinion is ok with you, or it's not.
Make your mind up! Live by your own rules! Don't change them whenever it's suits your argument!
People in this thread have voiced their opinions, you don't have to like or agree with them, just as they/we don't have to like or agree with yours.
BTW, I have never met Gapie, so I have no opinion on him.
I, like others, am just fed up with your condescending way of writing (preaching) and holier than thou approach.

are you recovering from something, ron?
your overly defensive, almost passive aggressive reaction to deviation by others from your world view is a dead give away. as is the whole business of the way uncle ron deals with bullies. what's going on there is a sublimation of your violent tendencies and desire to impose your will on others into a fantasy where you are the protector who brings order to an unjust world.

i hope this will mark my last interaction with you, ron. as i have no desire to make you any worse than you already are.
you've seen me use a phrase in the chat which i think describes you well. you are a horse made of chainsaws, a creature with the potential for beauty but ultimately too dangerous and unpredictable to be of any use.

Well, i think you're all a bunch of hypocritical wankers...

...I must now threaten you with violence.

...But first, here's a song:




...Ah, never mind... Forget the violence.... Anyone fancy a smoke?

Uncle Ron you stated that words started the conflicts where as history dictates the actions started the conflicts. Admittedly the words motivated the actions but world war 1 didn't start because somebody said 'let's assassinate the Archduke.' It started because somebody shot the Archduke. See the difference?

This whole thread is based on individual's experiences which are based on actions not words.

Totally debatable;

...Or if you like a laugh;




I know it's not indisputable evidence, but i always though that one assassination that led to an all out World War was a bit far fetched.
