    Did you read the OP? If you did read the OP, and then posted the above, well … That doesn't say anything good about your reading comprehension. I did not imply what you impute to me. Honestly now, did you infer that from my OP? I think that you are imputing to me, not only something that I did not imply, but something that you, yourself, did not infer. That type of a lie is called an obfuscation. To obfuscate is to pretend to misunderstand. Obfuscation is a form of bearing false witness.

    I don't believe you. I don't believe that you inferred that from my post. The difference between a liar and a fool is that the liar knows that they are lying whereas the fool has come to believe the lie. The danger in lying extends from how very little we remember. The longer one remembers a lie, the more often one retells a lie, the more adamantly one defends a lie, the more likely that one is to forget the truth and have the lie supplant their memory. In doing so, they make a fool of them self. To remain a liar one not only must remember their lie, they must also remember that they are lying. I sincerely hope that you know that you are lying. I'd hate to think that you're making a fool out of your self right here in front of all of these people.

    In short, if I wanted to listen to an ********, I'd fart.

    Fear, did you infer fear from my OP?

    Must be closing in on 200 by now, or pulling away from it.
    Insufferable tedium from people who are inane, incoherent, hopelessly long-winded or just too stupid to mess with - and I don't mean stupid like Forrest Gump, I mean stupid like Nancy Pelosi.

    An exceptionally retarded username will do it as well.
    Dunno what you find so interesting about stupid, but you might want to consider Nietzsche's observation that gazing into the abyss invites the abyss to gaze into you.
    Hey, if having the longest i-list on the block is wrong, I don't wanna be right.

    When I was 18 years old, my very first foreman called me dick so often that the new guys thought my name was Richard. That mean old bastard's name was the same as mine, Jim. I'll never forget that guy. Jim told me, the very first time that I met him that, if I was late or had to call off, I'd better have a good story. Looking back now, I think that I might have completely misunderstood him. If I did, he played along with it for years.

    Every time I was late or had to call off, even if was for an otherwise justifiable reason, I would think up outlandish excuses and elaborate stories to tell him. He seemed to genuinely enjoy my stories, and he never called BS.

    Jim Irwin taught me the value of entertaining BS in 1981.

    Three. All three are the type who like to stalk, go completely off topic, make things personal... no interest in actual discussion. I'm not a fan of arguing with people who're literally mental... it's crazy to do so.

    There's type of troll that I refer to as the invisibles. They would rather get noticed by any means than remain invisible. They are to be pitied and ignored.

    Did you infer from my previous question that I did not want your opinion?
    I am not implying; I am inquiring. Did you infer fear from my OP?
    I only ask because I noticed your choice of words in direct response to my OP. I'm not pulling it out of thin air, and I'm not implying anything. I just noticed your choice of words and wondered where they came from. I'm glad that you're not afraid by the way. That's always a good thing.

    Did you read the whole post or just that one statement? I said, that the left makes everything personal, so when you say you ignore people who disagree with you personally, then by the power of deduction, this means you ignore everyone who disagrees with you.

    It's like saying I like every colour in the rainbow as long as it is red.

    I only use ignore when posters make continuous personal insults... some is fine, but the constant hurling of insults backwards and forwards only derail threads and serves no purpose... at least none that I can see... maybe they feel better but helping to improve their mood is not why I'm here.... ignore saves time.

    My ignore list currently stands at 12. I un-ignore people who are subsequently banned. My criteria for my ignore list is as follows:

    That somebody is a racist and calls my parents race traitors.

    I ignore people who make nonsensical posts that add nothing to constructive conversations.

    I ignore people who throw false accusations at me. One included spreading fake news and another that I am attempting to censor my threads.

    The last category is people who refuse to debate my valid points and continually resort to calling me foolish.

    I don't have an official 'ignore list', but I have found myself skipping over posts when I see certain names. My triggers are personal attacks and rude interactions. But I've also got certain thread topics on ignore, simply because I've been down that particular road with some folks and their ignorance or hatred makes me feel horribly sad. No need for that.
