Exactly, Pico! I was referring to the comments on the sign that guy held - not Classic, personally.

Actually no, that is how I feel.

Sling it, expect it to be slinged back.

Times are tough for a lot of people. I am completely sympathetic to that.

This country is heading for the shitter. And it has not a GD thing to do with me. But watch out for the back lash in 2012, there may be a few surprises on the horizon.

If you want to address her previous post and have something of value to add or would like to counter that, fine. She didn't sling any shit on/at you. Why'd you have to take it immediately personal?
To just take that post which really had NOTHING to do with that which you are, I assume, slinging shit about is kinda just, well assholy.

Dude, are you kidding me!?!?!

No, READ - she even quoted me and then responded. YOU were not anywhere near the conversation she and I were having.
YOU interjected a cry me a GD river outta nowhere.
And yet again I ask it is your point that has NOTHING to do with anything. Seriously.

Really? Cause you don't sound like you have a fucking ounce of sympathy. Cry me a river? She did it all right. She followed the fucking master plan and did it all right until fate, or fortune or random chance threw an impassable block into her path.

Cry me a river? Her career, her health, her future and current security, all snatched from her leaving her wholly and inextricably bound up in state assistance, and there's almost nothing she can do about it.

The Right want to strip her of what little assistance society has deemed she 'deserves' and you have the fucking brass balls to say cry me a river?


Fuck Merc. You just took a nose dive in my estimation. Seriously, where's your human warmth gone?

I am done with this discussion. I'm not coming in here any more, it just winds me the fuck up.

NO MASS JUSTICE, NO PLANETARY PEACE!

TAX THE MASS-RICH!

"Sooner or later, you have enough mass." - Barack Obama

"No planet gets massive on its own!" - Elizabeth Warren

"Hey, I'm not massive. I'm for equal distribution of mass." - Micheal Moore


Comrades, the solar system is unfair! Why do some planets, like Jupiter, have so much mass and others, like Mercury, have so little? Is it because Mercury is mostly black? Join the #OCCUPY JUPITER movement and demand a more equal solar system!

Sorry, Merc, but that's false accounting, trying to pin the blame on Jupiter.

The Sun makes up 99% of the solar system's mass. Jupiter is just a distraction pushed by the uber-massive to make us forget the real issue.

I don't know where idiots come up with this "wealth distribution" goal for OWS. They started by saying that we American Taxpayers bailed out Wall Street's ass, increasing our debt. Now it's time for Wall Street to pay back and lower our debt. Nowhere have I heard that the money should go to the poor. Sure, it's been suggested that increased tax revenue should be used to rehab our attrocious infrastructure and whatnot, but not be given to the poor.

yeah, Dana, I like that suggestion too if you must. I value your contributions all over the cellar, and here is no exception. Well, kind of an exception. This subject is very important to me, and I *highly* value the insight of intelligent articulate people, like you, especially about stuff that's important to me.

Do what's right for you. I hope you can hang in here.
