    usually less than 5 minutes/avg per day, I choose not to have cable, I get my sports online, and I have Netflix & Amazon w/HBO add on, I don't want to let that dude have control over my life, I do spend a lot of time trying to promote the more liberal (socialist) side of Democratic Party to get more candidates with platforms that are further left (anti-war, anti-big banks, anti-Big Pharma, single payer) that kind of shit. I check the daily headlines usually and that's about it

    He's always been self absorbed, I would say a diva, Mariah Carey-esque with a more nasty attitude, TV ratings are higher when stories about Trump are featured

    No offense, but this explains the content of a lot of your posts.....which, many, seem to be about a guy you claim not to spend a lot of the day thinking about.

    Tally ho.

    actually very few of my posts are about Trump, but whatever, you have always been negative towards me (every fucking post) so your opinion ain't worth shit to me, you are always trying to trash me, and never actually be relevant, get a life and just ignore it if you can't be anything than an asshole.

    As little as possible.  For me, there is little more I need to know about the man.

    It's one thing when one person always acts like a douche bag towards you.....

    When everyone acts like a douche bag towards you, you might consider the common denominator....

    People being rude to each other on AMT is such a drag.  I don't mean disagreeing or even being emphatic about how one feels.  I mean just being unnecessarily rude. Sometimes it's so bad I wonder why I bother coming here.

    that people are tools? no one acts like that towards me in real life here in Seattle, people act all bad ass behind a keyboard, and mob mentality to gang up on people whose opinions differ from your or who you don't agree with or who doesn't speak the way you want, it's fucking ridiculous, come say the it to my face, or do you just like being tools in the message boards?

    I really am a cool dude in real life (this is definitely not real life), have met a bunch of 10c members at shows never had any issues, hung out before shows and we had great times, look forward to hanging out with more PJ fans for the Seattle shows, had some members come by and see me this past Saturday in West Seattle. As for name calling, I lived in Chicago and if someone is a tool, that's what you call them. Anyone who has lived in Chicago knows there is a lot of profanity & name calling used.

    You seem to take things very seriously.  My 13 year old nephew that lives with us would have the same reaction to someone disagreeing with him. 
    "Come say that to my face!"   
    There is an implied threat there and it is misplaced and out of line, to put it kindly.


      If someone disagrees with you they are always wrong.  I feel badly if you feel people are mean to you but always being right carries some costs.  (Don't I know it!  Jk)

    As you say - peace.

    not at all a threat, but anything you would say behind a keyboard you should be able to say to someone's face, everything I say here, I would say in real life, people that trash people behind a keyboard, and then don't that way in public are frauds, just pointing out the hypocrisy

    I just don't get how if you never comment on someone's posts, never make any comments to them or about them, and then any thread they see you in the trash you even if they contradict themselves on something they trashed you on earlier just to take the other side to try in get into an argument, it totally sucks, then it's like chum in the water and some else joins in. It sucks cause the majority of people are hella cool, just a few tools really ruin the experience. It should be okay to have a different take or see the world in a different way, it would be real fucking boring if everybody talked the same and thought the same, you would never have any progress in society which comes from people thinking outside the box.

    True dat!

    To me, responding is the same as reacting when on forums such as these.

    ...and, in terms of how to respond or react, it really helps to try to not do so in kind, whether or not your inference is accurate.

    I can't speak to your observations there...but it seems like you have some very strong opinions that you express in strong ways.  If you do that, you should expect strong reactions.  

    I know there were a few spots where you asked people to stay out of your threads if they disagree and I don't think that is the way things work on a board of opinions.

    That stated i am not on AMT much.  I like to keep it lighter and stay on AET.  People tend to be far less open minded in these parts and discussions can get downright nasty.

    I am a work in progress, and sometimes it's so damn hard to turn the other cheek, but it is something I need to strive to work at to be a better human, if someone is dog shit and you lower yourself to their level, you usually end up covering yourself in their shit and you end up looking like shit yourself, so it is very good advice, and I am trying, lol

    People aren't ganging up on you because you have a differing opinion.

    People are correcting you, because your statements are factually incorrect. 

    I'd say it to your face if I thought it would make a difference, but you're so far down the rabbit hole I'm not sure it would matter.

    Depends on what's going on.
    Some days more than others, some days little, or not at all.

    I have not read a paper since the fucking orange clown was sworn in.  
    I cannot control what the moron population of this country does.
    No reason to try.
    I voted 3rd party.
    Anyone who disagrees?
