Padded vs polyass

[babybear]

TGR is split into two camps, those who want to discuss things like kittens, and pizza, and post "stoke," which is really just internet dick waving attracting people to the source of the stoke. The second camp being those who would like to discuss thought provoking, sometimes controversial topics that they might discuss with friends in a bar. The former camp wants to be surrounded by like minded people offering words of encouragement.

ummm
this is a ski forum
Plenty of other places to discuss what you desire

MTT if you or cumshot posted factually shit instead of made up bullshit, you’d have a point, but you two clowns post dumb bullshit that reinforces your bubbles. Worse the bubbles get reinforced in part because people attempt to engage you on it and neither of you clowns possess the will or intellect to actually be engaged in it. You just want a shitposting Reddit without much porn.

I’m going to waistemytime4u. And see if I can get this place back to what it’s supposed to be

or when you hear a dog whistle DON'T run back here to tell us about it.

[MTT]

Core shot. Used to probably still can ski like a Demon. And pretty much most here are grounded in that simple fact.

I’m inclined to treat anyone who skis with me with some level of respect

It’s what has always tied this place together

We don’t even dickwave about who is better than who

This was a great place to chat about pretty much anything

It still is
And we still make plans to meet up to make some turns

[mcphee]

Racist meme shit isn’t worthy of debate or discussion. It’s just wrong, end of story.

The message the meme implied is racist as fuck!

Who’s the racist

Me for reposting it

The person who created the cartoon. Putting words into the VP’s
Mouth?

Or was it the people who decided to use Covid money to create a racial equity program that gives crack pipes to addicts targeted in intercity Detroit?

Or is someone saying the facts of the government program are just made up so us redneck racists can be racist?

What it is you have a problem with

I think you just don’t want the stupid gov program brought to the light of day

Or maybe you just don’t like me and look for a reason attack me anytime I post

Really I no longer care what you think
These words are not for you

[mcphee]

The message the meme implied is racist as fuck! YES!

Who’s the racist YOU!

Me for reposting it YES!

The person who created the cartoon. Putting words into the VP’s
Mouth? YES! and YES!

Or was it the people who decided to use Covid money to create a racial equity program that gives crack pipes to addicts targeted in intercity Detroit? I now have a splitting headache from reading this sentence

Or is someone saying the facts of the government program are just made up so us redneck racists can be racist? Thanks for admitting you're a redneck racist!

What it is you have a problem with YOU!

I think you just don’t want the stupid gov program brought to the light of day I want all government programs kept in/brought to light!

Or maybe you just don’t like me and look for a reason attack me anytime I post If you weren't a reckless redneck racist dumbfuck, there'd be no problem!

Really I no longer care what you think
These words are not for you Don't quote me then!

Hey dipshit, my responses are in bold above. Hope this helps!

No one is surprised Core Shit and MTT might get together and dutch rudder each other on the lift over how good the good old days were and how they have a special ability to see through the bullshit - meanwhile ignoring or more likely forgetting that when they were young they shook their heads at their elders for being paranoid, susceptible to cons and fake news propaganda, and being stuck in the past.

[MTT]

So there is some nasty race based shit going down. But talking about it makes me a racist?

Silence in the face of evil allows evil to thrive

What are you. Evil
Or just dim as fuck and nit worth arguing with?

I already decided.

[Flounder]

Or is someone saying the facts of the government program are just made up so us redneck racists can be racist?

Hey you finally got something right. The government program includes lots of things like clean needles but not crack pipes. Unfortunately the right wing outrage machine sees an easy way to rile up the racists by falsely claiming a give away of crack pipes. Shit stains like yourself eat it up.

Christ, all last year the same group was bitching about all the drug overdoses being worse than Covid. Now a program aims to reduce deaths from drug use and you’re all worked up about that. Bunch of hysterical hypocritical triggered snowflakes.

If I had a relative who was speaking like this, I'd do my best to get them help out of concern for their wellbeing.

Uh, last I checked the Padded Room was created as a place specifically to discuss non-ski related topics. Maybe anything that might remotely lead to something controversial should to be moved to Polyass. So move the COVID threads there. Move the real estate thread there. Move great resignation thread. The Padded Room will be reserved for topics that are not skiing related, but no one will ever get angry about.

But the most read and participated threads in the entire TGR are the thought provoking, controversial threads. Even on the skiing forum, the most read threads are about things like building new ski areas or the industry in general.

There are plenty of places on the internet where one can find and share skiing stoke and local conditions updates. What sets TGR apart are the threads, mainly in the Padded Room, where people can discuss ideas. I know I am not the only one who thinks this way.

[bennymac]

Masks on school kids makes no real world sense to me. The real reasons for pushing this go into conspiracy theory territory

Thanks for proving my point.

[altasnob]

The same 5 or 6 people just cunt up pretty much every thread every idea. Causing the wealth of personalities here to just not bother with an opinion

These slimy fucks are shouting everyone down

And that’s the obvious goal. Stop people from communicating

There seems to be like 20 posters here, all long time posters that all know each other and are friends in real life. It's very cliquish, like a fraternity. They don't like controversy and seem to get angry whenever a thread drifts that way. But what I don't understand is if a person is averse to controversy, it is extremely easy to avoid that here. There are numerous users that read and post on the Ski Forum that never make their way to the Padded Room. And the controversial Padded Room threads are obvious and easily avoided.

This core group of 20 does not like me and wants me to go away forever. It's no secret. And while I may piss off 50% of users here, I am convinced 50% are actually interested in what I have to say, and I am interested in what they have to say. I don't post to get a response from those who hate me. I post because of other users that respond, who I believe promote interesting, higher level, discussions. If you want someone to go away, it is very easy. Don't engage them. Don't respond to them. Ignore them. Either skim over their posts, or put them on the ignore list if you have to.

Oh, and don't tell the person you are putting them on ignore. Just do it and you can go the rest of life pretending that person does not exist. People use, "I put you ignore" as just another insult sling.

I would think a lawyer would be better at reading the room.

[altasnob]

skiskiskiskiski, a banned user coming back as an alias offering advice on reading the room?

Like I said, I know those who hate me and those who don't. And I chose to speak up because I know there are a lot of people here that are thinking what I am thinking, but might not want to pick fights.

No reason to get personal

While strongly suspecting your right

We all have our flaws

[jono]

Where can we move your soapbox?

Are you saying he deserves his own thread or asking which one deserves him?

[ex-powderbroker]

Are you saying he deserves his own thread or asking which one deserves him?

This guy deserves his own forum! Elsewhere!

[altasnob]

Whatever happened to BigSteve (aka Geezer Steve) and Scottsman? I know both of those guys in real life and they are extremely knowledgeable of all things mountains and would have a lot to offer here. I wasn't paying attention when they were posting. Did you guys drive them off with your childish insults endless bickering?

[ex-powderbroker]

since you know them irl why don’t you ask them?

[MTT]

If you ever look at who is currently online. It’s a big list

Way more than you see activity posting
