"Imagine if the Tea Party Was Black"

[Industrialsize]

amazing how "the facts" create such silence!!!

This thread is about the Tea Party, not grammar..........Have something to say on the Topic?

 

[BF2K]

guess I was right!!! OK, the "Tea Party" is not violent, not racist, not anything the Mainstream Media claims, they are individuals expressing their Constitutional right to free speech. I would be part of the movement BTW. If you want Socialist/Communist shit, move to Cuba!!!

 

[BF2K]

Anyone else want to challenge my English grammar?

I've always had a hard time with the "gay" scene because it seems to have very little to do with love, bonding, emotional and physical closeness and committment to another person and much more to do with fucking or getting fucked by another man. Some hetero's and gays are the same - fucking for pleasure, anything with a cunt or an ass - is not love, in my opinion. What do you all think?

First sentence needs a comma after "person", but is probably a run-on nonetheless. Second sentence is hopeless. Your love affair with the dash is misguided and grammatically offensive.

Pirate Wrench - don't think I am "intolerant" not many opportunities to meet or interact with male couples - I guess they kind of have to hide. Let me specify that I was referring to the "gay scene" - anonymous sex, glory holes, gay bars where the only objective is to find someone for the evening - I realize that the same occurs in the hetero community - guys looking for a "fuck" at any price. I just have the "impression" that some are confusing physical closeness with the concept of "love." In the era of MTV, American Idol and Desparate Housewives it's kind of different to think otherwise. Thanks for all of your responses.

That dash (after "Wrench") is doing you in, again. Try commas for some variety (and accuracy).

Uh... what? This isn't your actual viewpoint, is it?

Some people definately take this place far too seriously. It's easy, however, to appear as someone that "controls" the conversation in the chat (I have been accused of this, including "manipulation" of people in the chat) as there are quite a few lurkers that add nothing and only sit and watch what's going on.

Quite honestly, I don't give a shit if Monster's or if anyone elses pics are fakes (mine aren't btw) . All I care about is that people come here to have fun, are free to discuss and talk about anything, and are polite and respective of other peoples' feelings. At times, it seems as if some are only here to complain, accuse and hurt others in an attempt to feel better about themselves.

It's spelled "definitely."

"elses" should be "else's".

 

[SilverTrain]

I would like to apologize for all the men who still tend to think that women (and in some cases other men) only as objects to stick their dicks in as opposed to living, breathing human beings that would like to be respected for who the are and who they aren't. I will admit though that I have a hard time with the SizeQueens who tell us that 6" isn't enough to satisfy them - superficial women (and men) only deserve superficial responses. No one has the "right" to PM or speak to anyone - this pleasure needs to be requested and any "no" should be respected.

That first sentence breaks down after the parentheses.

And again with the dashes. Use them sparingly. Please.


So that was your first four posts upon joining the site. I'll stop at this point.

You do know that communism and socialism are two entirely different things, don't you?

The score thus far based on facts:
Indy: 1
BF2K: -6

And no, this ain't a game of golf either. :biggrin1:

just one example in the subjunctive . . .

This is a fragment. It is not a complete sentence. Plus you've decided you're e. e. cummings and "above" using upper-case letters to begin sentences or sentence fragments? Trust me. You are not e. e. cummings.

amazing how "the facts" create such silence!!!

This is another fragment and not a complete sentence. You need "It is", which by itself is a complete sentence, to stand as the main clause, then "amazing how 'the facts' create such silence!!!" becomes a subordinate clause. And once again, sentences -- even fragments -- begin with using an upper-case letter at the beginning.

guess I was right!!!

Here is the same problem as pointed out in the previous examples of "Mr. English's" ability to express him self in standard English. He feels ellipsis of the subject is acceptable. It isn't. He needs an "I" in front of "guess I was right!" to change yet another fragment into a complete sentence.

BFTK: Please do us all a great favor and learn how to create a complete sentence in English. As for the use of the subjunctive in English, you're in no position to "guess" based upon what you may have learned studying French. And I may add, pity the native French speakers who will be assaulted by your meager acquisition of their language.

Tea Party a la race card... well done libertards... keep exploiting the minority.

 

[B_talltpaguy]

^lolol... Newsflash: the teabaggers are the ones in the minority!

...I would be part of the movement BTW. If you want Socialist/Communist shit, move to Cuba!!!

You'd be a part of it? No fuckin' kiddin!? Who woulda thunk.

BTW, B fuckin' K, while you defend the Tea Party's rights to free speech (and I happen to agree. Why not let them show themselves to be the assholes they are?) you in turn tell those who want so-called "Socialist/Communist shit" (a typical Tea Party like mischaracterization) to move to Cuba if they disagree (besides which...doesn't FRANCE have universal healthcare?)

wtf???

Someone get the frekin' fly swatter, eh?

Don't worry, MLB... the only tea parties I will be participating in will be my niece's imaginary ones with her dolls, and if I'm lucky, in a brothel with a couple of hung & handsome men who all have great oral skills. :wink:
