     Teske got banned yet the p word lady is still around? Unreal.


    At least we can scream for joy that an irrelevant college football game with about half the audience of a national NFL game will do something for this country.

    Everyone here knows how to get the trolls gone, yet no one can resist responding to the things they say - which are DESIGNED to piss people off. It's insanity to engage with these folks. Set them on ignore, and don't try to fight ignorance and stupidity with logic and decency - trolls are void of both.

    the men on that field will do that one day, once they enter the officer corps. And may be called for more....
    given a prospective foreign policy agenda , so very different than we've consistently known across generations, it may happen sooner than we think. sadly.

    Excellent reminder, especially in a time when trolling is bogging down AMT.  I'm guessing that is part of the MO as well.

    I might not meet it, but thats my goal now. I've noticed they seem to ignore most questions posed seeking facts or clarification. speaks volumes imo...

    The problem with this is, someone invariably quotes them and you still have to read it.

    My rule of thumb is, I will respond to anyone other than trolls at this point. If they get quoted by someone logical and decent, I'm happy to engage with that person.

    reaction suggests emotionally driven. uncontrollable. 
    in general I'm looking to move away from that sort of thing.

    would agree but from some it feels emotionally driven.

    And I have accomplished mine as you do so often. you generally exercise great patience with these folks. refrain from personal attacks. logically and carefully lay out facts or well researched opinion with grace

    frankly its amazing. and a fine model for others.even if lost on the poster you're responding to, its not lost on others. so you win, do you not?

    I did think it was funny that the two guys that actually served (Vance, Hegseth) had their hands over their hearts and Admiral Bonespurs saluted. Magats all x themselves over that. Fucking hilarious.

    I do give him credit for not wearing a uniform and/or having cracker jack medals on his jacket.

    So if I understand correctly. This guy has a mortgage at 1.99% and called you because he was looking to refinance?
    Did he somehow expect to beat 1.99?
    I took it as the guy wanted to take a loan out agains this house and keep the 1.99%. not that he was hoping to do better. 
    Maybe he needed to buy PJ premium tickets or something.

    I think the guy was wanting to tap the equity in his home. The only way to do that is to:

    1. Refinance...then you lose the 1.99% rate
    2. Get a home equity loan....int rate will be more like 8%
