S-PARF. Surely Others are Thinking the Same Thing...
 
Time for a forum change. Shootings, politics and religion.

Spoon talk doesn't seem to rile the masses the same way a good 'stand-your-ground' incident does....

:rolleyes:

The thread about the shooting has been apolitical. Most everyone has been civil with out dragging a gun debate into it...

I'm willing to give all of the participants a gold star.

I'm sure at least one will really appreciate it too....

Names have been withheld to protect the childish :p

True. But that's also often the case in PARF. It's the minority that can't let go.

Down with Minorities!:D

leave PARF in PARF if you will,,, please.

Why? It's one thread, I punched out of it two days ago. If you don't like it, don't click on it. PARF was created because the entire damned OT forum was full of politics and religion pissing matches. I don't see that happening today.

Yep. Leave it as is.

It's a damn shame a pop-corn tosser had to die to get the "Arrogant Engineer" thread to finally fade away.

FLYGEEZER 01-17-2014 10:21 AM

Lets not talk guns/shooting on the internet......on this site.....Don't give THEM another source to pry you of your pleasures.. don't post pictures of your "spoons" or any firearm. Keep your hand close to your vest, move on quietly,don't draw attention to yourself that way. If ya need attention that bad....get the Porsche out and go for a ride.

Hey, this engineer enjoyed that thread!

KFC911 01-17-2014 10:29 AM

Flygeezer, I do believe that ship has left the station or that train has sailed...YMMV :D

ps: Nothing wrong with that other thread....just healthy debate with a few "PARF tactics" thrown in for good measure by a few.

I try not to keep looking at that sailboat wreck, but I just can't help myself either....much like that long running TM/GZ thread :p

Good point.
Certain people (here) pull out the religion card, at the drop of hat.
They refuse to do otherwise.
PARF is the place, by design.

Intelligent Design.

Although the other thread has gone redonculous.... it was mostly four or five posters re-re-re stated their opinion. It was somewhat amusing at first but then it got to be like a bloody automobile accident... you want to but you just can't look away.

However I did not see any inherent political/religious content (not that I studied it that intensely).
Of course any discussion involving guns is dancing on the political line for obvious reasons (second amendment).

Pulling the anti-religion card is still pulling the religion card.

Yep..why discus anything that requires any thought at all? No one can argue with photos of your wife or significant other (we are not rude enough to tell you they are really pretty homely), or what TV show you like...but the "whether or not to manscape" and the many Mustang and Corvette threads...now those a little contentious. I don't understand how they got past the self appointed PARF Police that primarily post in OT where everyone agrees with everything (pablum).

....and don't call me Shirley

scottmandue 01-18-2014 10:56 AM

There is more to life than arguing.

fintstone 01-18-2014 11:04 AM

Yes...one could search thread to thread and fnd someone discussing a complex adult issue and complain about them...maybe open a thread to make fun of...or insult them.

Bill Douglas 01-18-2014 11:12 AM

Off topic isn't just about Porsches.

There is more to life than just Porsches. Dogs, chainsaws, guns and bacon.
