I have no control over your faculty of understanding, but now you are acting like you actual can understand. So, hey!

He's right Wookie, your posts are essentially incoherent.

I think he's also right that you seem to have something to say that might be interesting to hear. It's unfortunate you can't communicate clearly.

It's beyond your control and so what are you going to do about it?

Communication is what the listener does. Spank probably won't understand this though....

Look you guys made some gossip for Jiggy to exploit.

Control freak gossips ITT

Well, if you read my posts, you would see that I said

1) I can understand some of what you're saying, but not most of it.
2) I can get general gists of your posts, especially if you post repeatedly about the same thing.

But, like, the problem is not my ability to read English. It's your (apparent) inability to write English.

If you're saying you have no control over this and your posts represent your true best attempts to communicate in English, then I agree there is nothing to be done but for me to do my best at interpreting your posts.

If you do have some control over this, or some ability to attempt more coherent posts, then it might be nice. That is all I'm saying; I'd like to hear what you have to say without needed to spend tons of mental effort just trying to translate it.

Like, as usual, I need to kind of guess at what this means if I want to respond to it. I think it contains a couple things:

1) By "control freak", you imply that I am trying to control you. I'm not. I've expressed a preference for your behavior, sure, but I fully accept that you are free to post in anyway you like as long as you don't break any rules.

2) By "gossips" I think you are referring to the large conflict you were involved in a long time ago that I have only read about second-hand. Let me be clear: I have nothing to do with that. I have no interest in it, and it predates my even lurking on these politics forums. I know virtually nothing about it, and anything I say about you here is not related to it in any way.

3) The whole thing (you objecting to "control freaks") kind of suggests to me that the incomprehensibility is intentional, but again, I don't know. Is it?

why is pressuring your 11 y/o kid not to take hormones bad? most children who are 13 and below who identify as transgender grow out of it. Hormones are permanent and they sterilize you. If they are 18 and have about 80% developed brains allowing them to do w/e they want is fine, but allowing your child to make a permanent decision like this is a compete dereliction of parental duty

I like spanks posting. Far better then the new crop of trumpets.

But do you understand it? Or is it like listening to a pleasant tune in a foreign language?

Also, better than current crop of trumpets basically goes without saying.

You didn't communicate with me about reaching an understanding in the first place and instead you went gossiping publicly off-topic

I say you have wasted some energy following your own communication problem while blaming me using gossip for something you have no actual knowledge about and can never control.

Allowing independent choices as parent is fine, even if they are serious and life-changing. Your angle sucks.

spank, I'm trying to reach an understanding with you while posting on an internet forum, in what is admittedly a sometimes disrespectful style.

I am not gossiping about you; the fact that I struggle to understand your posts is very much a confirmed fact.

Yeah for the most part I understand.

I'm not sure I agree with this. There are some choices that parents should probably prevent young children from making.

You are committed to that narrative. I see. Go on.

Spank hasn't been right in the head since November 8th, 2016.

Since he was 98% sure Hillary was going to win, the cognitive dissonance caused his brain to snap and he's frankly just slamming his head on the keyboard at this point. It's really not his fault.

What narrative? Do you think I'm lying? I don't get it.

WTF? Are you insane?

I don't believe Spank is qualified to arbitrate the line of independent choices parents should be making. Thank god for small favors.

That's dumb thing for you to say. It's not even a good guess. And your showing your own Clinton habit again. Present tense. Hey are you an American?

+1

I seriously think excessive posting on internet message boards turns a persons brain to mush eventually. The evidence is obvious in these forums.

Exhibit A : Spank.

Exhibit B: Aljafrezi.

C'mon now - we have no evidence that they had brains before they started posting here. How dare you presume their pre-forum mental capacities.
