  1. Humor is an art. The trick is for it to contain a smidgen of the truth, otherwise it falls flat. "Yo Momma" jokes are remarkably creative but hardly credible, all of which makes them easier to dismiss as street wise buffoonery not to be take seriously. Some bypass this code of the jungle when they feel the line gets crossed. And asses get kicked. Such is life. 😧
  2. @Delano Let try to nail down some specific, because you are saying things that I have not said, then using those statements as a basis for arguing my point. I would start to call you "Mr Straw Man," if Pioneer did not hold the distinction. I'm not saying you are being disingenuous because you disagree with me -- that does not make sense. I'm saying you are being disingenuous, because I don't think you are articulating what you truly believe. Perhaps it is because you don't want to appear to be elitist, as you assumed me of being. I don't know your motivation, but I simply do not believe you are arguing, truthfully, that there is no inherent difference between someone who is educated and someone that is not. How many Phd's do you think are in jail for assault? @Pioneer1, next time to you see 45, or even, Obama, kicking someone's ass because someone talked about their Momma you let me know. Shoot, I seriously doubt Obama ever had a fight; that smooth talker probably talked his way out of plenty of beat downs LOL! Now both of these guys have used the armed forces to fight their battles. That reminds me, Hillary and Obama celebration over getting Gaddafi killed was disgusting...
  3. @Kalexander2, the name of the charity is The Literary Freedom Project Enjoy your time off! @Delano, where are you hearing this stuff? Even the most optimistic observers (rabid anti-45ers) here in the U.S. don't see 45 doing time. Again I hope you're right but I don;t see it.
  4. @Troy: Yeah, I hate to admit it but you and sister Cynique, may very well be right!! Please send the name of that charity again so I write it down this time. Even 'without' his supreme nominee, the Democrats seem skittish about impeaching or removing a sitting president; and Muller appears apprehensive as well. But I hope the mid-terms encourage some these crooks to get opportunistic and get that con artist, at least. Anyway, I'm MIA for a while; on vacation here in Dubai for the next several weeks, then on to London for about a month. But I'll be monitoring off and on for you, sister Cynique, Mal, and other interesting members. Also, brother Troy, I attempted to subscribe, several times to no avail. I try my brother to do it for me upon my return to Jerusalem. !!STAY - UP!!
  5. I know a few CO's and sex between the staff and inmates is not uncommon at all. Getting 4 officers pregnant at the same time is extreme but obviously happens. @Pioneer1 the picture you paint of married women with children from stable middle class backgrounds is not exactly the demographic to be a correction officers who alone lay up with some inmate and have their baby. I'm sure if we took a profile of these women we will not find that they come from stable middle class backgrounds.
  6. Yep, that's ol Cynique over 20 years ago, fulfilling a dare. 😵😀 I don't know what Pioneer has been smoking but it apparently causes hallucinations which enhance his tendencies to make up things and then incorporate them into a little world inside his skull where he reigns supreme. Which is to say, that i have never sent him any pictures of myself and i wouldn't do so even if i did know who he really is and how to reach him. I don't who that is in the picture he posted and so blatantly lied about. 🤨 Here is a "respectable" picture of me taken during this same time period back in the '90s. 🙃
  7. I don't agree with the statement. it is elitist. You're either implying that education reduces aggression. Or there is an inherent difference between educated people and uneducated.
  8. @Chevdove, no, no, no I made a mistake. I incorrectly attributed a quote to you that was made by @samosei -- sorry about that The link that was posted is show below: This is the quote I was referencing -- you research is in tact. I also believe I addressed any issues with the forum with a change iI made yesterday.
  9. I like it sister, Cynique, it keeps us guys on our toes, me anyway. Submissive females are boring!!!
