No New Raptor, Then Build This

I couldn't tell, so I decided not to get annoyed. This text-only medium makes it hard to read context and emotion. Joke/serious/sarcasm/irony/off-color/mad/glad, most of it gets lost. Except for Oldfart, where you can just assume some off-color innuendo and be right 99% of the time. Mike O came through loud and clear on one thing, although I still don't know what comments he's talking about or whether he dislikes me because he thinks I'm liberal or because he thinks I'm conservative.

I have no ill feelings at all about you Gordo, nor anyone else on this site. I really don't. I appreciate other's opinions and I like to hear them. But, I will call out a foul when I see one. It's just in my nature. In person, you would see that I am bantering and just speaking my mind. Text, email, etc, makes it hard to see. And, I am as guilty as anyone for misreading someone's intention with a post. Heck, I want to have a beer with Crazy911 and we see things totally differently. It sharpens each other's sword. The both of my childrens Godparents have many different political positions than me. And, they are still my best friends.

Thinking about it, "lame" was pretty lame on my part.

No harm, no foul. I'll buy you a beer if we ever meet up. You can even call me lame, but you gotta back it up with the goods. If you're right and I'm wrong, I'll admit it. Next time, just call me out on the spot and we can discuss it. Cheers

Ha! Totally. I really wasn't calling you lame. What I was calling lame was that I had never seen someone be told to change forums for a post so quickly, especially since he did refer to the topic in the thread. Just calling a foul. The "goods" are that you and I have exchanged political perspectives in a previous post. I remember it because I referenced you as Gordo in that one as well.

That you liked the post about moving his comments to a political thread is the irony that had you included.
