Monday Morning Funnies

I mean, who hits report? You guys that do, whats your motivation for doing so instead of hitting ignore? Doubtful I'll hear from you, as you don't want to out yourselves. That should tell you something about yourself.

the only time I have reported someone was suspected fraud/scammers in the PX...beyond that, I have never reported any fellow members, regardless of what might have been “said” to me. It’s just the fucking internet for god sakes, lol.

Larry was funny and seemed knowledgeable.

Weak sauce, I know. All I could do on short notice.


Shiiiit.

I hit the report button once. It was spam. Other than that, It would need to be what I considered an actionable threat to my family or me to hit the report button. The ignore button works, but if we ignore everyone we thought was an idiot at one time or anther, this place would be an echo chamber on another level...

But, Larry/God Damned Wrong/Bare(ly) There/Nobody (that's fucking appropriate); you can be a fountain of wisdom without being a douche bag. And, once you're on ignore, you're just yelling at the rain. Doesn't matter how good your info is if no one is listening.

Lowlight said it in the other thread, Larry comes in here and goes hard and fast until he is banned. That is the definition of a troll, and a repeat offender- as he has had multiple accounts banned.

Larry's living off the grid in Alaska. Great. And, it's a place where I wouldn't last long. So what? There's lots of places I wouldn't last long. I'm too pretty for prison. So, I'm staying in my lane and out of prison. I'm too white for Houston's 3rd Ward. So, I keep my white ass in the suburbs.

But, the obverse it true too. Larry has proven time and again, both here and in myriad other fora from which he's apparently been banned, that he doesn't last long in civilized society. You don't need to be a douche bag to be right, but if you ARE a douche bag, you're automatically wrong.

He's the derelict second cousin that wasn't invited to Christmas, but shows up anyway just in time to take a shit on the Christmas Turkey platter. I don't care if he can wax poetically on the the differences between Galliformes and a Raptors.

Off the grid Alaska- Where the men are MEN, and even the bears don't bend over to pick up the soap.

I'm not sure if I can see who I have put on ignore, but I know that GRD made the list, as did Nobody. I'm less certain about Larry, and Bare There didn't last long enough for the honor.

I'll finish this post with a quote...

"I don't know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve."
 
I hit the report once.

Dude was basically arguing for pedophilia from a no holds barred Libertarian perspective......if they both consent it's okay!

Great shit to have the antigun people screen shot and use as an example of people that enjoy this sport.

Somethings have to be reported.

Now if you could stop all those people calling just because a guy's car hit the skip line that would be something.

Some things need "See something, say something" but really we are becoming a country informants - by design.
 
Remember this site has an IGNORE Button, if you place someone on IGNORE you don't see their posts.

That is the part certain people don't understand.

I think they understand that quite well, but that's not what they're going for. They're not interested in just ignoring someone, they're interested in actually suppressing and/or de-platforming someone they don't like for whatever reason. Cancel culture has become rampant everywhere. These are people who actually take joy in preventing someone they don't agree with from speaking. :mad:

You can see who you have on ‘ignore’ in your profile. Just click on your user name then click on “Ignoring” and it should give you the honored members.
 
Having said that, I never found anything of value in the vast, vast majority of Larry's posts. eg; Doing a video of taking a scoped rifle and tossing it around on gravel/rocks doesn't prove anything from a structured, analytical testing point of view. Saying all Leupold scopes are garbage without anything remotely resembling "data" doesn't cut it either. (I am not a Leupold owner/fanboy, I don't own any of their product).

He is absolutely right about my Leupold M40 repro scope being a POS......$300 for a capped turret SFP variable in a puke/urine green color?

Wait, I thought that old video of his kid was to poke a thumb in the eye of folks who complain about Leupold. Is he against them now? Sorry I missed the Bare There incarnation. I remember all the other incarnations.

I’d never report anyone except for scammers.

If I had an issue with another member, I’d deal with it with him directly via PM (assuming it was worth my time, 99.999% of the time it’s not) ....that’s sufficient to resolve whatever differences...

When it comes to folks like Larry/Bare There you just have to just sit back with your popcorn/drink and enjoy the show while it lasts.
 
I completely missed the Larry the Lounge Lizard fireworks this time.
I had interactions with him a few years ago.
He is an unmitigated asshole.
I couldn't care less that he might put out good info.
Fuck him.
In regards to him "living off the grid", that is bullshit as well.
He may live in Alaska, but he seems to have plenty of bandwidth to post high res photo's, that ain't happening "off the grid".
Hell, I lived semi-off the grid nearly 40 years ago. No running water, shit in an outhouse.
We did have electricity most of the time.
That was in deep, dark, south eastern Ohio.
 
Bob, I gotta bad feeling about this, I ... I'm
telling you I got a bad feeling, man, I don't think I'm gonna make it .. y'know what I mean?

I think we have found a hurt feelings reporter
 
Frank built a place for men,... an in the early days it was so. As time went on Wo-Man shilling as men, slipped thru the door. After Scout the basement dwelling, gear queer, safe queen owners have multiplied like rabbits. They are experts are at many things, however having balls is not one of them,.... The interesting things that proves the point is the amount of B/S about being fucked in the PX. In days gone by if you tried to fuck over some one you could bet your ass he would show up on your door step even it was just principle. Now the butt hurt button is the prefered alternative, AKA he hurt my feelings or is not playing nice,.... where is my safe space an how do it get to it?

As far as the px.
If someone screws you the cops will do ZERO about it!!!
If you show up on their door step the cops will be there in a flash and use the full weight of the system to destroy your life

Laughing,..thats not what happened when I drove to NOLA for 12 bucks or south Ga, for 5,...ask around. Money is one thing but principle or out right lying is another.
 
For years I’ve thought that if I owned a site, I’d just give him a subforum. “Nobody’s Home” and be done with it.

Completely unrelated thought, but relevant to the OP; @lowlight didn’t I see you and Larry lock horns on a thread about .308 powder?

Do you really think he’d be a good little lumberjack and stay in his own forum. This is a guy who’s stints here sometimes last only minutes because he doesn’t work and play well with others.

No I don’t. I’d only let him post there. No one post/day, no bans and multiple accounts, straight stick enter at your own risk. However, I think it would likely take the fun out of it for him, and I’m not sure he’d post there.

I would do a Safe Space before I gave Larry his own section

I am looking to update a few of the lesser-used sections with topics that would be more relevant to 2020, but come on, with the number of bitches I would get from people who accidentally wandered in and read shit, no thanks
