How much talapia are you eating weekly? -- |

I suppose you're using the term 'wingnuts' to refer to anyone who isn't a 'veggan' or other non-meat eater? -- John H- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - I'm referring to a wingnut as what it is: From the Online Slang Dictionary: wingnut ?someone lacking in mental abilities, uneducated, rather than mentally handicapped. he's a a real wingnut! From Merriam Webster: Main Entry: wing nut Function: noun Date: circa 1900 1 : a nut with wings that provide a grip for the thumb and finger 2 slang : a mentally deranged person 3 slang : one who advocates extreme measures or changes : radical So, the question would be asked, why are YOU making this political? Oh wow, I didn't even know such a dictionary existed. I must apologize then for thinking that you were turning an informative post into a political statement. You were actually just 'name-calling', like Harry does all the time. Sorry, I should have known that you weren't saying anything political. Not to mention trolling for the Christian response bringing God into it in such a manner. You shouldn't apologize, it was a troll... -- Apology accepted. Well, I know it was a troll, but I don't have a problem apologizing to Loogy. After all, he's going to man up and apologize for calling us names, right? -- John H- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - What names did I call you and Scotty? Wingnuts. You don't remember this: "Seems as though you wingnuts..." Only Scotty and I had a post going. Or were you talking to the F-18 pilot making 'whoooooooshing' sounds over your head? -- John H- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Huh???? The reply was to Froggy....... Yeah. You called us both a bad name. Shame on you. Oh, and check out the order of the posts above. -- John H |
