  Re: Shrek 2
 
(...) I'm more concerned about the indoctrination of the 4yo than I am about the 13yo being exposed to the reference he/she already understands. Kids today are being taught more and more about sexuality at a younger age -- the problem is they're (...) (20 years ago, 27-May-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)
 
  Re: What's a freedom fighter?
 
(...) Is that me? My vocab isn't what I wish it was, but I thought it was called something different when you substitute just a few of your own words. Kinda like Weird Al singing "Eat It", but not quite. Oh well, you're the PhD here, so you must be (...) (20 years ago, 27-May-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

This one's for Mike P! (...) I thought it was a Gone With The Wind/Star Wars reference: Rhett or Ric Olie. Dave! FUT OT.Deja-Vu (20 years ago, 27-May-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: What's a freedom fighter?
 
(...) Your posts yesterday suggest otherwise; 6 out of your last 7 have related to me. As an aside, there is something upsetting about having one's posts discussed by the only two (URL) plagiarists> I know on LUGNET. Before you both continue this (...)

  Pause!
 
This is the sort of thing that I take some refuge when the world around me seems too complicated; it kinda provides a much needed (URL) PAUSE>. I know, I know... panem et circenses. It isn't exactly a political debate, rather something of a more (...) (20 years ago, 27-May-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)
 
  Re: What's a freedom fighter?
 
(...) "GWB's puppets of tyranny" sounds about right. Most people here think of this as a military invasion and therefore, an illegal intrusion in another country. The fact that Saddam isn't in power anymore is good, but the price to pay was too (...) (20 years ago, 27-May-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)
 
  Re: Shrek 2
 
(...) No it wasn't wrong. or inappropriate. They didn't refer to anything sexual. It's a feminin underwear. No mentions as to what it could mean, i.e. being a transvestite or being sexy. It was simply an underwaer. A Thong! What's wrong about that? (...) (20 years ago, 27-May-04, to lugnet.off-topic.fun, lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)  
 
  Re: What's a freedom fighter?
 
(...) See, now that's what I'm talking about. You debators probably all know what you meant by that sentence. I'm gonna have to look up "rhetorically" and find out what it means in that context. (...) Well, he's got me fooled then. I have enough (...) (20 years ago, 27-May-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: What's a freedom fighter?
 
(...) No I don't. It's grammatically correct, yes but rhetorically, it's quite weak. He dodges questions, doesn't address refutations, writes as if he doesn't get the point of other people's arguments even when spelt out in detail, and doesn't make (...)

  Re: What's a freedom fighter?
 
(...) I don't know how. His writing is like a powerful magnetic field. Very polarizing. Normally my perspective spins around, tilting ever so slightly to the right these days. But in his presence I feel compelled to align myself against him. I don't (...) (20 years ago, 27-May-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: From Reason: "It's all bad news - Chaos in occupied Iraq"
 
(...) Even if it is, it is policy (which is my point anyway). (...) Again, this is not our policy. (...) It doesn't. (...) They have more evidence than I, but I'm not sure it even matters to me anyway. (...) He still takes his orders from men, not (...) (20 years ago, 26-May-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)
 
  Re: work-pages & bridge postcards
 
(...) That must be some sort of slur against the UK, because his grammar is fine. So you must be saying it's too good to pass muster, or something. Which, as an anglophile, I resent. :-) (20 years ago, 26-May-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)

  Re: What's a freedom fighter?
 
(...) Forget Dave, forget John. I was talking about you. Let me get this straight. Was I mistakenly reading anti-american sentiments into your remarks? I got the distinct impression that you despise me and everyone like me from your writings. To me (...) (20 years ago, 26-May-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)
