    otoh... even with his poor source material, FF tends to stay on topic.

    UA's derailment of just about every thread he participates in, no matter how generously you interpret the "good faith" of his positions (and I'm still 49% sure he's a schtick), has plenty of precedent. He's basically Dayton with swearing.

    Is he though?

    FF is a Ted Cruz-ian little weasel-fuck who pretended he wasn't a Trumper, and totally was.
    But he was always an unashamed weasel-fuck no matter the brand name on his jar.

    UA is a crybaby triggered snowflake who pretends he's a mythic warrior from the daydreams of a 10 year old boy.
    The lack of self-awareness is much deeper. IMO.

    I absolutely agree about Aunt Alice, but insecurity and lack of self-awareness do not cross the bridge into dishonesty. What someone believes about themself may not be true, but that doesn't make us a liar. Aunt Alice's persona here is of a very unpleasant, ill-informed and ignorant jerk, but I don't recall her ever trying to convince anyone that she's anything else.

    FF's transparent lies and trolling went on for an awfully long time and if the bridge too far, happened to be a foot bridge instead of the Gordie Howe Bridge, too bad. The straw that broke the camel's back and all that...

    actually fuck...

    The Gordie Howe Bridge was the one they superimposed in SNW's "Tomorrow x 3" over Toronto harbour.

    If that gets blown up because Trump finally gets to go all lebensraum, can we conclude Romulan interference in the election?

    The MASH where radar leaves was just on, and it occurred to me, that's who FF was.
    Our evil opposite Radar.
    He was our special little guy....who we're all glad to see the back of, and we don't want any letters from.

    While it would be an... auspicious way to meet some of you in person, to say nothing of travel expenses if an in person trial were held, it's dealing with subpoenas for threads, posts, database access and having to engage in legal counsel that I don't want to deal with.

    You're obviously reaching. Being banned would in no way prevent any legal action a person might consider. You know this is silly and should never have happened. We all do.

    Looks like Federal Farmer was getting radicalized in school. I don't think the boy has much in the way of parental oversight at home.

    Well, the TV cast of MASH thought about as well of Gary Burghoff as we do of FF, from what I gather.

    Really? Their interviews always spoke well of him, but then again it could just be blowing smoke, like how actors would say Chevy Chase was great to work with, and then later we found out everyone hated his guts.

    One day it's retarded, ignorant comments on a message board. The next, pipe bombs and manifestos.

    He hated the role and at times was less than professional. I remember seeing a story where Alan Alda pulled him aside at one point and told him "If someone was willing to hand me a million dollars, I think I would be on time." Alda realized the cast were in a once in a lifetime situation. It was understandable why Larry Linville quit: the character was a one note and he got sick of the role. The producers were also sick of him because there were only so many gags you could make about an incompetent doctor and the situation also stifled the Hoolihan character. Wayne Rogers got disgruntled because he was supposed to be a lead character in an ensemble, but he was becoming overshadowed as Pierce became the breakout character. McLean Stevenson simply overrated his own abilities. So did Burghoff. Acting is such a brutal profession that it amazes me when actors jump ship from a successful show thinking the grass is greener somewhere else. :clyde:

    But you totally don't want an echo chamber safe space where you are shielded from dissenting opinions. :dayton:

    No, me responding to "UA is overjoyed" or "UA is *lie #220398208* " is not me derailing anything.

    Finally, it would never be necessary to ban me. If whomever is paying the bills orders me to leave and never come back, my personal convictions would obligate me to vanish without argument. Make of that what you will.
