You've got to be kidding. Prolly half of his posts are deliberate attempts to insult and/or provoke conservatives/Republicans and to insult the intelligence of everyone.
I guess I wasn't precise enough. I intended to exclude political threads, where there's plenty of incivility and intractability on all sides, and the perpetrators all seem to be satisfied with the status quo. On top of that, Bob's insults are usually aimed at either public figures or at conservatives in general, while his enemies prefer to attack him personally. Not that there's anything wrong with that! He's blatantly asking for it, after all.

But when he tells a story about his family, no matter how outlandish, it may warrant skepticism, but it doesn't warrant a hateful attack, which is how I read Saucy's post. I apologize to her if she's offended by anything I've said, because I admire her and that's not my intention.
Nope, not offended at all. I think everyone is entitled to their own viewpoint, and that is what this bored really shows. Some agreed with me 100%, some agreed but thought it didn't need to be said, others didn't agree at all. That's okay with me.

I spent several years buying into some outrageous stories, and have reached a point in my life where my cynicism outweighs any tolerance for crap.

I guess I shouldn't have even looked at the thread, but a daemon on my shoulder made me do it.

So.

If you think someone is an Attention Whore, and you pay them attention, does that make you an Attention John?

I get so confused around here sometimes...
Huh? What?

I somehow doubt Chris Hansen will be knocking on my door.

Sadly, it's often considered a "victimless" crime, usually only involving some bandwidth.

Except, of course, for the whore. Probably low self-esteem, feelings of self-loathing, and a need to display the goods in a near-obscene manner.

Does that help?

Victimless, but it cheapens the neighborhood.

Just stop patronizing it and it might go away. There's a thought...
