nataniel said:Oh my god, oh my god! Nat is practically screaming here, slapping his right hand—emphasis on the *right* hand—against his forehead... 😉 Man, Keith James812, what a mess. He’s talking about "traditional values," which apparently means you have to talk about the bosses. They write that they're great. You're supposed to praise them. Be nice to them.

Don't believe a single thing you see in the media—and by that, I mean that big box they call the TV. 😁 Don't trust anything you hear from that little box where small-minded people spout nonsense either.

Trust nothing. Even they try to tell me the camera makes me look skinny.

Trust yourself. YOURSELF.
(thumps finger on the table dramatically)
😎 Anyway, let's get back to those "traditional values."

Look, I am totally lost here. This is a complete 180 from everything I was ever taught. 😁 They told me the best move regarding the bosses was to shut my mouth entirely. And if they actually cornered me for an opinion? Fine, I could praise *one* specific guy, but everyone else? Forget it. It wasn't even about being mean; it was about acting like I didn't even know they existed. 😁 Now suddenly, I'm allowed to talk about everyone, hang out with them, and heap praise on them too? I don't know, Nat, sounds like some fancy rules they make up in Europe or something. Down in California, if you acted like that, you wouldn't just lose your job, you'd lose your teeth. 😁 😁

Alright, hold on, I'm getting to it... I need to go brew some coffee first just so my brain stops spinning. You have no idea how much I've had to deal with lately; I seriously need to focus if I don't want to accidentally leave someone out of this mess. 😁

nataniel said:Look, Keith James812, between you and me, I don't think you've ever actually seen them. You know, THE. BIG. ONES. I heard they aren't even real. All this nonsense you're rambling about regarding sizes? It's just what happens when you spend too much time hanging out with weirdos, let's be honest.

Part of the strategy here—just stop talking about junk and focus on traditional values.

(Pro tip—$67 coming from your big sister)😎

Well, if massive equipment isn't considered a "traditional value," then I truly have no clue what is.😕 😁

And it’s total garbage to say I haven't seen it, because I have... on TV. But hey, whatever, you're entitled to your opinion. They didn't put a matchbox next to him for scale; they used some woman instead. For all I know, she was just tiny, or maybe he was just a regular guy standing next to a literal little person.😁

velvetgull9 said:Look, you’re the one who told me to ask! I honestly thought you were just dying to spill the tea, but you won't even admit it... 😉 😁

But seriously, if you just need someone to listen because everyone else is too busy being self-absorbed, just say the word. I can be patient. Until I get hungry, anyway.

Anyway, I'm heading out now. 👋

Don't you dare! Wait! I've got stuff to tell you! 😁 😁

nataniel said:Nat’s flying in hot—Keith James812, hold up one second—is it just me, or are you dragging your feet on getting hitched?

So, you finally tied the knot, huh?😬

I am not slowing down, I’m just pivoting... I'm gonna play it cool and act like I don't care for a while, and then BAM! Catch 'em totally off guard when they least expect it.😎 😁

velvetgull9 said:Man, don't even bother struggling through that. Just list the ones who aren't on the list already—might actually save us some time here.

Walter, Donny, and Lebowski... 😁

😁

So?

So what, you don't care about the big hitters on the forum, you just want the juicy details from my sex life?😁

velvetgull9 said:Honestly, just grab both lists. As long as they aren't massive, why choose? 😉

Look, I’m an optimist at heart, so typing out that first list would probably take me maybe thirty minutes tops. 😁 The second one? It's practically non-existent—right now, my count is sitting at a big fat zero. 😁

Now, you tell me: is that zero because I haven't spotted a single one yet, or because everything I *did* see was too small to even count? 😁

velvetgull9 said:Just spill it already—who exactly are we talking about here?

Who did I think they were for? Or better yet, who do I actually *know* they're for?😁

dustyscout53 said:That’s the thing, Keith James812—you just check your brain at the door whenever politics comes up. It’s like there’s some unwritten rule saying everyone on this board needs to turn their IQ off. Look, I don't give a damn about the rest of the mindless crowd here, but you actually worry me. I know there’s a tiny spark of intelligence buried somewhere deep inside you, but the second you start posting here, you squeeze it out completely. That's why.

And whose fault is it if you think I have a brain to begin with? Am I really supposed to apologize for bothering guys on this forum who I actually thought were capable of writing more than a grocery list? 🙄

Eric Wells3 said:How exactly does he answer for it? The absolute most that happens is the CEO gets canned.

Like, instead of just stepping down, he’s supposed to walk straight to the guillotine? 😕

Eric Wells3 said:Look, if you actually care about accountability, fine. Kudos to you. But I honestly don't see how you plan to pull off your little "method" when we're talking about running an entire country. It's not that simple.

It takes time, okay? Real change doesn't happen overnight. Once voters stop looking at politicians like they're these untouchable, little communist gods sitting in high chairs they have zero say over, then—and only then—will people start applying pressure. We need those tough questions coming from the bottom up and the top down simultaneously. That's how you break the system.

dustyscout53 said:And wouldn't you know it, I actually find myself agreeing with Keith James812 most on this whole thread. 👍 😍

If you weren't such a bleeding-heart patriot, we’d probably be best buddies since we're totally on the same page about everything. 😍

Look, there’s really only one way to actually kill nepotism in the workplace: hold people accountable for their damn results. Period. I would never, ever hire some cousin who doesn't know a single thing about the job if my own neck was on the line. If my entire department's success depends on whether or not things are running smoothly, then I'm not playing games. At the end of the day, if my numbers are solid and the work is getting done, I don't care if half my staff are my buddies or old college friends... it just works.

Maria Barnes said:Keith James812, look, the mods actually have half a brain cell left. They see you two flirting and it’s basically that whole "fighting is just foreplay" cliché 😁. So they stay out of it. Plus, honestly? It’s entertaining. But hey, if it’s really getting under your skin, we’ll make sure you get all the protection you need.

You heard her, Lebowski... they aren't stepping in because they realized this is just a bunch of women bickering in a political mud pit and they’re enjoying the show... 😁

But seriously, Maria Barnes, I’m telling you straight... I am straight. And with all due respect to whatever guys are fantasizing over here, if that girl from the North America comes near me one more time with that attitude, I am actually going to lose it and swing at her. 😠 😁

dustyscout53 said:She doesn't even care about being a wife, so she won't mind me. Other girls get married, but Keith James812 gets hitched.

Seriously, why is nobody calling out dustyscout53? We're in a thread about skinheads and this guy just drops that?? Why is everyone staying silent?

dustyscout53 said:Do you actually enjoy playing dumb, Keith James812? It honestly looks like you’re trying way too hard to land some MAGA enthusiast. Good for you, sweetheart. With an intellect like yours, they wouldn't even hire you to mop floors at the CIA, let alone anything else. 😁 😁

Why on earth is dustyscout53 coming at me in a thread about skinheads?

Like, why am I not allowed to ask questions about what went down with the cops and those skinhead groups without dustyscout53 jumping out of the bushes to shut me up?

Seriously, why? Why?!

Look, Michael Adams2, man, it’s been like a hundred years since you even showed your face around here... but seriously, why did you have to come charging in through the front door just to drop that Quincy bomb? I honestly don't get it. 😁

So, did I ever tell you guys about the time I was just chilling in bed and suddenly realized there was this massive tick burrowed right into my upper arm? I swear, I moved so slowly—like, painfully slow—trying to get out of bed without ripping it off and leaving whatever nasty little stinger thing stays stuck in my skin... I was basically crawling toward the bathroom to grab the rubbing alcohol and some tweezers. On my way, I gave my dog a massive kick in the hallway, too, because honestly, how many times do I have to tell him he’s not allowed in my bed? 😠 But then, the second I flipped the bathroom light on, I realized it wasn't a tick at all. It was just a watermelon seed. So, seriously, don't freak out over nothing 😁 😁

I once had some kind of butterfly flutter right into my ear, just beating its wings around inside my head... nothing to worry about, honestly. Don't be such babies 😵

Carl Lee4 said:It’s dirty. Honestly, it gives me the chills.

Oh, please. Like they’re actually going to carry her around on their head like some kind of trophy. Give me a break! 😁 If she misses three days a month, she’s basically dead in the water. It's over. Nothing's gonna happen for her. Zero. Zip. Zilch. 😁
