Well, for one thing, all message boards are all random conversations. Unless it's on a private board on a forum, it's open for all to jump in on and talk about.
For another thing, it is an objectively cruel thing to fuck with a wild animal for the lulz.
For yet another thing, the house I live in was built in the turn of the 20th century, and probably used local building materials in building the house. I also do not own a car nor do I have access to a car, I grow and hunt some of my food myself, and the closest thing I ever go to a mall at is at this local shitstain of a strip mall near my house that I only go to because it has a dollar store in it.
But regardless of all of that, I don't randomly fuck with animals for the lulz. That is what makes you, Stoker, an asshole.

It sure is, Some people choose to actually join into an intelligent discussion, and others randomly jump in and mindlessly sling random insults like:
Jesus you people are assholes.

Here is the post that you attacked me about:
Or even better, take a hat and fling it like a Frisbee way up in the air, then blast the hat with your trusty shotgun loaded with some skeetshot as the bats dive at it. Cruel I know , but such is life growing up in a small town. With the mixture of firearms and boys in some places, it is amazing that any wildlife manages to survive at all.
Where does it say that I "fuck with wild animals for the luls"? I stated that as a boy I shot some bats . "Shooting bats" was a general excuse to be out near dark when I was a kid and we were in fact told to kill any that we could (and never touch them) because the general consensus those days (probably today too, I don't know) was that they carried rabies and other nasty things and pass them on to barncats- etc. which may very well be true, and we sure believed it to be back then. I clearly stated that this is something that boys do, and never stated in any way that it was "lulz to fuck with them" and I am guessing the posts by a couple other guys about that were just BS and having a little fun rattling your cage. I said such is life in a small town- alluding to the fact that there wasn't a whole lot to do other than hunt & fish. And aside from bats and an occasional barn rat, I and my brothers and friends generally ate about anything any of us shot. My dad would have kicked my ass for randomly shooting or fucking with ANY critter that wasn't considered a nuisance, and I mean a real ass kicking- not this PC bullshit that is considered discipline for kids these days. He is pushing 80 these days and could still kick the shit out of a punkass metrosexual pussy like the guy who "wished he could meet him" in a recent post, I would really enjoy seeing that..... My mother was a real sport about this sort of thing and had a way with a pressure cooker and a masterful insight on how to make even the greasiest Opossum fairly edible(although she wouldn't dream of eating any of this type of thing herself ). As with Drifter, I moved on from hunting after I grew up, and actually didn't have a firearm at all until a few years ago when I got a little pistol. Now that I think about it, I think the last thing that I killed was a deer in 1984( I might have gone duck hunting once or twice after that- can't remember), which means that I haven't harmed a critter since before TLV was even born (did your mom go to Metal shows in Michigan back then- we might have more of a connection than either of us dreamed). This whole mushy pile of BS here in this BS thread has got me thinking that I should get a shotgun again though, there are a couple places near me here in AZ that are really good spots for Duck and Goose hunting.

Ahh, now we are on that big old river in Egypt, Denial. TLV thinks that because she doesn't approve of what our society is, that she is not part of it. This gets at the heart of what actually perturbed me about her redonkulous random (weak) insult in the first place, namely the fact that she is a hypocrite, not the part about being someone who likes to randomly insult people . So, the house you live in is old? So this means that instead of the habitat destroyed for its construction was done a long time ago, and that you didn't see it happen, therefore you rationalize that it didn't happen and you are not responsible for it. Wrong. It did happen, and what this means is that this habitat has now been unusable for 100 years instead of 10 years like a newer house. Saying that prime Michigan wilderness was destroyed in procuring the materials instead of somewhere else makes no effin sense at all- again- IT WAS DESTROYED FOR YOUR BENEFIT, and a lot of critters were killed to do it, including I am sure some bats. Fascinating that you don't own a car, but it doesn't matter. Everything that you own, eat, throw away- etc. are ALL DELIVERED to you in AUTOMOBILES on ROADS by someone else. This is twice as bad, as a second person has to waste resources to service you. It does of course allow you to grandstand about how you are "environmentally conscious" or whatever and therefore supposedly superior to others who are not. This is known as HYPOCRISY, but I bet a lot of people who you throw this crap on actually buy it.The aspects about all of the murder and injustice and environmental rape committed by our government to provide cheap gasoline and all of the other things that make being an American pleasurable are all still valid as well. I must say that I do respect your claim that you grow and hunt (Really ? Do you enjoy it? Does that make you an asshole as well? Nah- that makes you a Hypocritical asshole) some of your own food. The garbage rationaliization about the stripmall near you being a dump is irrelevant- it is still there, occupying what was once probably prime farmland or forest and is filled with merchandise produced in near slave labor in highly environmental destructive practices.The parking lot and road going to and from it is still there as well, and all of the other roads in the state are too, whether you use them or not, they were still built for your benefit, and you exclaim with self- righteous glee that you waste even more resources by having someone else drive on them for you. Bravo!!
Remember TLV- this entire boring discussion is because YOU decided to be a fucking hypocrite and randomly insult someone.
