    ... the sandass script, I mean. The more of you "family" asses install it, the better. If enough of you go for it, perhaps you'll take enough sand with you that the SoapBox can be dug out of the SandBox. On the other hand, I really don't expect a single one of the "family-guys" to stick with the script.

        I'll just bet you are. Just like you don't mind getting up to a dozen or so 1's.

        You don't understand how it works, do you?

          This isn't difficult. This forum is *called* The SoapBox. But, it's not really a soapbox, it's a sandbox ... it's a carefully protected play area for "the community" (i.e. leftists/securlarists) to pound their chests and proclaim what Brave and Grave Thinkers they are. Even as they act like howler monkeys anytime they're exposed to real ideas. The more of "the community" which segregates itself into a little echo-chamber (I mean, an even smaller echo-chamber that this SandBox), the greater the possibility that the "SoapBox" can function as a soapbox, rather than a sandbox.

              They'd like to think of themselves that way. The "family-guys" are not exactly the same fellows as "the community," but there is a lot of overlap. This post[^] and the posts it references may bring you up to speed.

                          I don't like being lied about, and I don't like seeing others lied about. Sometimes I ignore, as best I an able, "the community's" lying. Other times I mock it. I really just do not understand how you can so easily shrug-off seeing others being lied about, regardless of who is the target and who (singular and/or plural) is doing it.

                            Given that you *do* sometimes like to join "the community" in their attempted pile-ups, I had not expected such a compliment.

                                  Truth is truth, no matter where. Falsity is falsity, no matter where. Dishonesty is dishonesty, no matter where. Injustice is injustice, no matter where.

                                    Given that you *do* sometimes like to join "the community" in their attempted pile-ups, I had not expected such a compliment.

                                      i guess i just find that what goes on in this forum is very inconsequential.

                                          hey i cannot stop others from reply'ing to my posts. i did not "join" anything. i was merely using the same level of sarcasm you seem to enjoy using when someone claims that they know everything. you still have me 1 voted for that compliment - i already said was intentional. this is not justice.
