Trooper York: I couldn't resist.

I couldn't resist.

I am weak I tell you. I couldn't resist posting on a lawyer post but I quickly deleted it.

It was the wrong thing to do.

chickelit said...: LW III wrote a song about you. Blake will explain (even though he actually dislikes the song).; August 27, 2009 at 9:07 PM
Trooper York said...: Who is LW 111?; August 27, 2009 at 9:14 PM
The Dude said...: Loudon Wainwright the 3rd, son of the Life writer, father of LW IV.; August 27, 2009 at 9:39 PM
Trooper York said...: Chickenlittle you misinterpeted the photo.

That's a lawyer in the middle of the road. Notice no skid marks.; August 27, 2009 at 9:45 PM

My apologies-it looked like fresh road kill to my eyes.; August 27, 2009 at 10:32 PM
Trooper York said...: You can always tell the difference between a dead skunk and a dead lawyer in the middle of the road.

There are skid marks in front of the dead skunk.; August 27, 2009 at 10:39 PM

For the record, there can be skid marks at the back end of a dead lawyer--it depends on how sheisty he was IRL.; August 27, 2009 at 10:47 PM
The Dude said...: There will be more than one set of tire tracks on the lawyer.; August 27, 2009 at 11:01 PM
Jason (the commenter) said...: Also, people generally don't wait for them to cross the road. They'll drive onto sidewalks, through windows, and even up stairs to get them.; August 27, 2009 at 11:45 PM
Anonymous said...: No one has posted this video yet? Loudon Wainwright singing one of my all-time favorites.; August 28, 2009 at 9:24 AM
Anonymous said...: Loudon also sang "Rufus Is a Tit Man" and "I Wish I Was a Lesbian." Take your pick.; August 28, 2009 at 9:33 AM
The Dude said...: Ok, LW IV is actually Rufus. Don't listen, don't care.

The prof is carryin' on over at her place again. Time to post there again.; August 28, 2009 at 1:09 PM
Darcy said...: Geez, that thread is ugly, if it's the one I commented on today.

"Wonderful" Bissage, indeed.; August 28, 2009 at 4:50 PM
blake said...: Actually, CL, I did post my LW3 Trooper York song.

Maybe it's because we go drinking....; August 28, 2009 at 6:08 PM
Trooper York said...: NKVD, dude I had to delete that comment. I just feel that it was not proper. I am trying really hard not to let intermittent shots back and forth escalate into a full fledged war. I don't want to go to the mattresses if I don’t have to. So I have decided to ignore Bette from now on as best as I can. If I decide to go there I will shoot Moe Green in the eye my ownself.

Unlike Althouse I want to try to maintain a minimum level of acceptable discourse and the direct application of the c word in a non comic pose is not acceptable. We bust balls and pick on each other all the time but some things don’t go. It would be like calling Titus a faggot. It might be technically true but not the way we want to behave. If you are joking around it is fine but if you are doing it in a mean spirited way I don’t want to do it.

To speak to your larger point Althouse is often nasty and seems to revel in it. She loves to pick fights with other blog’s and make it all about her. She loves to instigate fights among her commenter’s and seems to think that this drives traffic to her blog. She feels and has always felt she can come in tell other people how to run their blog’s and how to express themselves. With all of that she is ready to throw you under the bus and loves to discuss commenter’s with other commenters. To talk about whether they should be banned or not. I have this thing where I see how someone acts towards someone else, then I know they will do the same thing to me. I am not special. When she talked about banning Titus I didn’t think I was special or that my time wouldn’t come. That is where my disenchantment with her began. Her sense of entitlement is immense and her school mistress persona dominates her otherwise ineffectual persona. It is no accident that so many commenters who were formerly well disposed to her have tired of her self righteous arrogant act and have absented themselves from her blog and deleted their comments. Not all of us are pimple faced freshman looking to teacher for approval.

To tell you the truth I am tired of her and the bullshit that she spews and I will strive to not refer to her any longer in any way shape or form. Life is too short.; August 30, 2009 at 2:35 PM
Trooper York said...: I do want to say NKVD that I value your comments and you have a lot of funny things to say and I didn’t delete you lightly. I believe in free speech and busting balls and you are always welcome and appreciated. I am sure you can be more creative and come up with more entertaining ways to mock the people you despise.

I hope you will continue to post here and have a good time.; August 30, 2009 at 2:37 PM
Trooper York said...: For other people who like to monitor my blog and run to tattle tale, well life is always so much like grammar school. If you have an issue with something in the comments you could have addressed it directly to me. And I would have addressed it right back to you.

As has so often be said what commenters have to say is not necessarily what the blog host thinks. Or they might think that and totally agree but not want to state it in that way. It is after all the right of a comment to say what he wants..

I never knew I would have so many people helping me run my blog.; August 30, 2009 at 2:42 PM
Trooper York said...: I have always really liked Meade and I want to wish him all the luck in the world.

I think he is in need of it.

Just sayn.; August 30, 2009 at 2:42 PM
The Dude said...: You are absolutely right. This is not the place to call the woman a bad name. I knew that as soon as I did it, but there you go.

And, as I say, I don't despise her. Don't like her, but that hardly matters in the big scheme of things.

This is your blog, delete as you see fit. I have no problem with that. I probably should have deleted that comment myself, but on the other hand, look at all the fun we would have missed.

And what will lawnmower man do now that he has no more lawns to mow? We may never know...; August 30, 2009 at 3:06 PM
Trooper York said...: Thanks dude. I think we can mutually agree to file this under old news.

We have a lot of better things to do with our time. Let's not let her pull us into her spider web to give her free content and most posts and comments.

She should concentrate on Jeremy and AlphaLiberal and her new coterie of sycophants.

Did I tell you the Giants are going to win the Super Bowl?; August 30, 2009 at 3:14 PM
Meade said...: Thanks.

I knew you'd do the right thing.; August 30, 2009 at 3:27 PM
Trooper York said...: No problemo.

I will always do something.

It is not always the right thing.

But it will be something.; August 30, 2009 at 3:47 PM
chickelit said...: ...and I will strive to not refer to her any longer in any way shape or form.

Probably a good choice my friend. And when you do we'll be here to bust your balls. :); August 31, 2009 at 11:39 AM
Trooper York said...: That no less than what I expect.

And demand.

This is the NFL.; August 31, 2009 at 2:56 PM
