calling people 'it' as an insult is really nagl, no matter how much of a prick the person is

ah, now I realize that calling someone a prick is perfectly fine, as is calling them a disgusting sack of shit, a twat, a cunt, a slimeball, a toad, a motherfucking piece of crap, or any of a number of other insults, but calling them an "it" crosses a line.

xp - I can't keep straight whether this where, as a friendly gesture of greeting, I should extend my hand to shake yours, bow, rub noses, or call you a toad, slimeball, or disgusting sack of shit in what you are meant to conceive as an ironic mode of converse.

In case Aimless isn't trolling (I have no idea if this is the case or not)Calling someone a disgusting sack of shit, a twat, a cunt, a slimeball, a toad, a motherfucking piece of crap, or any of a number of other insults is standard internet fare.OTOH calling someone 'it' is like calling them a 'slut' or a 'faggot', it says more about who about you are than who they are, and no matter how much of a motherfucking piece of crap they are, you are now down there in the mire too.

this is about a poll for the most woke body of water .... it's hardly Aimless vs. Hitler

what's yr problem with him?
― sarahell, Tuesday, 22 October 2019 18:16 (four years ago) link
not so much a problem as i've seen too many threads that turn into clusterfucks with esby at the center? nothing personal, never gone back and forth.
― Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Tuesday, 22 October 2019 18:19 (four years ago) link
I would speculate that there have been more threads that turn into clusterfucks with Aimless at/near the center than our woke water enthusiast ... playing that central role doesn't merit being shat upon in and of itself, is what I'm saying

aimless around a lot longer
and responsible for a lot fewer of any clusterfucks he may have had centred on him

all fair, i'm pretty socially inapt + don't like a lot of things + i know my opinions don't really jive with most ppl on this board. yet something, if only force of habit, has kept me here for over a dozen years and i still get turned on to a couple things per year from this board that i likely wouldn't have found elsewhere. so... i'll be here till i'm not. thank you!

Yet to really see the point in them tbh, feels pretty useless as a troll. Seems to think the solution to a proliferation of bad trump threads is more, worse trump threads

Very few threads on ilx are actually useful in a utilitarian way. The quality and quantity of Trump threads is as pointless to argue about as the best 100 albums by bands that start with the letter H
