This is all in the name of comedy, right? I mean, no one's sensibilities are going to be hurt, right? You know, "them snowflakes"...
One man's trash is another man's treasure...
Censorship can suck it!
The more I read your posts, the more I realize we live in different worlds. As I've said many times previously, I don't care what folks do behind closed doors (as long as kids are not involved or hurt) I don't need or want to hear or read about it. Censorship can and frequently does suck but, when one freely puts out information, then that information tells much about the individual putting it out. It's your life, do with it as you wish but, think about what you could have done or been.

Then don't.

Wait, do you think I wrote the caption? Or took the picture? Or started the thread?
Get real. You're talking about feelings...

...and attempted insults. Like that same "observation" doesn't apply to every thinking human being on earth.
I've had three acquaintances so far kill themselves during this whole lock-down. One of them died of significant alcohol poisoning, so it's not technically a suicide.
How this is comedy, in a comedy thread is beyond me...oh,. wait.
Is this a commentary on my attempt at humor? The "Not Really Hanging" hanging picture?
It started as Comedy. Most of the posts have bee0n. If you don't get a giggle the social media is not for it wouldn't be a problem. Archie bunker, all Bundy, red skeleton and Rhett Aiken are probably out of the comfort zone too

But your talking about snowflakes, correct? Just asking...
Post Script: I HATE the term "snow-flake". It's just so intellectually cheap.
But it's usage is the perfect example of pretending that as humanbeings, our feelings aren't a part of every-single-thing-we-do, even in our decision-making process. We pretend that's not true, but it is.
Boon, I read an article today about an attack in Sweden in the year 400. The invaders just walked in, cut the enemy down, and walked away. Left the bodies where they fell to be found 1400 years later.
Clean out the place and walk on. Treat the enemy like the enemy. Know what they did? Built a castle on top of a graveyard.
I don't see why "some" (nothing mentioned to be politically correct )should be treated any different. Welcome to humans. We are a violent species easily pissed off.

Yup. We can also be...wonderful. Wanna' know what holds us back? Us.
But I have the solution. Extend ourselves.
Shake a hand we might not otherwise shake. What's the worst that could happen?
We bring home some insidious disease that turns our wives & children into mindless zombies who spend, spend, spend, spreading it throughout the city, state, and country until every swingin' dick on the planet is a complete & utter moron?
I'm just askin'.

Go fugg' yerself. It's comedy in a comedy thread.
As I've said before, we have very different ideas of humor.
Attempted insult? I don't think so. The facts speak for themselves. The same is true for all of us. The paths we took could have been much different. Myself included. Could I have been more? No doubt but, I took the path I thought was best to lead me to my greatest potential in what I wanted to achieve. In most cases, I was successful but did fail in others. Is where you are at where you intended to end up? If so, congratulations. I suspect you were capable of much more though.
To quote a famous slogan, "A mind is a terrible thing to waste." The same is true of potential.

You're a loser Boondawg, but I wish you the best, I really do. I really do hope one day you stop smoking pot (which is destroying any ambition you actually had in life), and get your **** together, and maybe do something constructive. I really do hope you find that one thing that brings you joy that allows you to make a positive impact on society.
But right now, you can go **** yourself. There was a point in time where I actually did think maybe Randy was just being an ******* , but now I realize, he just had a shorter tolerance for **** -brains than I did.
EDIT: I had to re-read to understand what stupid **** you were talking about. It had nothing to do with your hanging around picture, that was actually mildly amusing. The one before it though shows your level of class. But my post had nothing to do with you. I was merely upset at the three individuals who had killed themselves all in the span of 3 weeks... two of them almost back to back, and I wanted to get it off my chest by talking about it.

I give the image meme (courtesy of Boondawg) a Thumbs Up for Dark Comedy, but I wouldn't want to see the forum OD'ing with this "genre."
I am thinking of this as a "gangsta rap" kind of image. Bringing up Rorschach-like connections with "Suge Knight" and "Death Row Records." Because, as it happens, I just went in for a 90-minute film documentary the other day, "American Dream, American Knightmare." Because I remembered from back in the day when they were joking kind of frequently with elliptical references to Suge Knight on the "Imus in the Morning" radio and TV show. As if the name by itself were one of those jokes that need no further elaboration.
Now I understand. But at the time, I had no clear idea about it. I didn't have a handle on the size and scope of it. I could only imagine, kind of vaguely, by the way they were tossing around that name.
All this is very subjective, I would think, and in my case, conspicuously influenced by the circumstance of just having seen that documentary.
"Many connections. One you."

Humor? You have never been around a battered woman before have you. Its not funny, it wasn't funny when he posted it and its not funny now. You are nothing more than a troll, when his image didn't stir up enough you had to post it again?

It's not literally an image of a battered woman.
I record for history that I wasn't repelled by it, and that I wasn't sorry that I encountered it.
It could lose its "freshness" with repeated viewings, and musings.
I hope to Move On.

You don't have any particular following here. You don't represent "the forum" in any tangible way. It makes me want to throw up in my mouth when you use the "royal we" or one of its variations in your lunatic messaging. Because it's so transparently delusional.

Wow. Really?
Come on, fuggin' THINK for one second. Where exactly do those (God Given?) freedoms draw that line? I mean, really.
It's YOU. YOU draw that line!
Unfortunately, my line sez...well, you get it. Freedom.

I've had a glass of wine since getting off work, otherwise my response would be much like Randys at this point.
Let me clue you in...
You're being an ******* . No one here likes your attitude right now.
Whatever your problem is, you need to figure it out, because you're not making it better, you're making it worse.
You've gotten worse, and worse and worse. You were *awesome* when you lived in Alaska. I very much enjoyed the Boondawg in Alaska. You were not only interesting, but you had really great posts, and you were a positive person. We all appreciated your stories, and living somewhat vicariously through you in the great expanse that is Alaska.
Today, you are a ****ing ******* , and I can't stand you.
You're managing to piss off people like Jake Dragon, a guy who's probably the most laid back person I think I've ever met online, in my entire life. A guy who literally wants nothing more than to make everyone feel better by posting pictures of lady parts.
Everything you do on Pennock's is to try to get a reaction from some conspiratorial force that you think exists. Please, either figure out your problems, or get the hell off Pennocks.
Dumb, dumb, dumb, honey what have you done? Dumb, dumb, dumb it's the sound of my gun Dumb, dumb, dumb, honey what have you done? Dumb, dumb, dumb it's the sound Elmer doesn't have a gun Elmer doesn't have a gun His whole world's come undone From lookin' straight at the sun What did his daddy do? What did he put you through? They said when Elmer was arrested they found him underneath a train But man, he had it comin' Now that Elmer doesn't have a gun he ain't never gonna be the same Elmer doesn't have a gun Elmer doesn't have a gun his dog day's just begun Now everybody is on the run Tell me now it's untrue What did his daddy do? He jacked a little bitty baby The man has got to be insane They say the spell that he was under the lightning and The thunder knew that someone had to stop the rain Run…

As usual, the things you think you know are distorted by the things you want to be true. In the simplest terms, once again you're talkin' out yer azz. You should try harder.
