I'm Leaving

[rocala]

I do not share your exact reasons for leaving @Rival but I cannot in all honesty recommend that anybody stay. I like debate and I fully understand that it can get heated. I don't really have a problem with that. I would rather have that than the intrusion of wannabe comedians.

I am also saddened by the amount of people with rather odd views (to put it mildly) who are often very prolific posters. Recently I have gone to What's new several times and I can only wonder how many potential members have looked and quickly left. I certainly would have if my first visit had seen similar.

My "Watched Threads" are a very short list and I can go days without adding a new one. It's a very diverse group who participate and I love seeing a lurker pop alive every now and then because the OPs can be unique occasionally. How many times and ways can the validity of the Trinity be hashed out?

As far as the comedic insertions go? I say thank you, thank you, thank you, even though sometimes they make absolutely no sense to me. We have many members here who face serious struggles in their personal lives and not all who listen and care are in a frame of mind themselves to reach out a comforting hand in friendship and solidarity. However, it's always nice to have someone to lift those spirits with a crack of a smile from across the globe. I know I've visited when all I needed was to know there are folks out there thinking weird thoughts and having a laugh at them.

Maybe someone will start a thread called "Lighten Up, Already." I'd check that one throughout everyday!

 

[Guitar's Cry]

Can we say "shag" then?

What do birds have to do with anything?

 

[Kenny]

For @Kenny.....
Enjoy!

Is this an example of woke?

 

[Revoltingest]

It's humor.
Mrs Trump speaks.

Given her taste in spouses, her rave
reviews of his presidency are highly suspect.
But if you love Trump because she does, I've
no convincing argument against that.

 

[Kenny]

I suppose that when mob wives support their
Mafia husbands, that makes them innocent.
By your rationale, eh.
What is her expressed opinion of her hubby?
Do you believe that she's honest, & wouldn't
disclose any skeletons in their closet?

You are by your dogged defense of him.

That's just a general Christian shibboleth.
It's so broad as to not even address the
various many wicked acts of Trump.

Do you believe that Trump has really learned
& improved? If so, this would be to ignore his
denials, lack of apologies, & current stated
agendas, judgements, & dangers he poses to
Haitians.

Past is prologue.
And his current behavior is insane & disgusting.

No.
Are you seeking Armageddon by
supporting Putin's ally, Trump?
Ceding to Vlad Ukraine & some
NATO members?

And this is “engineering logic”? I hope you retired.

I'm aping your Arthur Valentine "logic".

I prefer this one:

I prefer this one:

Poor Magas....have no one as clever & talented as Randy Rainbow.

 

[Father Heathen]

Or you should be like me. An aging warrior running right into the fire of the left wing!

In a show of solidarity, I too am bowing out from this place.

I can not help but wonder if you and Rival understand that "quitting RF" means you are, at the very least, going to stop posting...

 

[Twilight Hue]

Not only can we, but we absolutely must.

That did it. It must be done now........

 

[Twilight Hue]

OK… So I look at the past patterns of Kamala and find that she isn’t fit for office.

That will most certainly become apparent with the election results and the subsequent administration.

Hey, give someone a break! One has to pack up their bags, call the moving company, send out cards, shut off the utilities.....

That takes a little time along with the good bye party with quality catering......

May peace be upon all of you, God bless.

Sorry to see you go. I enjoyed your contributions, although we disagree on many issues. I hope you at least visit from time to time to let us know how you're doing.

I wish you well, whatever you decide. Take care!

 

[Yerda]

Well, all the best for wherever life takes you

 

[Regiomontanus]

No cake in London then.

Nope. Well, I would like to eat some cake with you, but **** RF. Be well and take care.

 

[Alien826]

Nope. Well, I would like to eat some cake with you, but **** RF. Be well and take care.

Do you mean shag RF?

 

[Stevicus]

One thing I would mention is that it doesn't have to be some permanent, lifelong decision to leave. The option to come back is still there.

Indeed.

Speaking from personal experience, both can be well worth it.
