The Onion is a great site!
I cant believe I got sucked into this thread like that even though it said "Parody" at the very beginning!. I think one thing we (I) have to do is just simply pay attention.:blush-anim-cl: |

This is somehow turning out to be a worthwhile exercise. Everything is here to be seen, unlike who knows what happens with the Camelot hot air (I mean whistle) blowers.
First post was made at 4:15AM today. At 4:45AM, Karen mentions the Onion is a site for parodies. At 4:53AM, the original post is edited by Karen. Karen: did you edit the title of the thread? --sjkted |

I was trying to get people to wake up to what was going on with that piece. I come back and hour or two later and the whole deal has gone bonkers with people slinging insults at each other. Bill Ryan has given some input the last few weeks, to take this forum to a higher level, and we are going to see what we can roll out in the next few weeks, or who knows how long, it's really tough working with an all volunteer team. What you do want the community of the future to look like? This thread? |
Re: Parody "I Don't Even Want To Be Alive Anymore" Rush Limbaugh
Oh yes, you are right.
I really do need to pay more attention! |

I realize he is likely very busy, but what I wrote and the comments from others were quite a bit more than fan mail. They deserve an adequate response, if Camelot and Avalon are to be taken seriously. Quite frankly, this is not an edict that can be given from above. As above, so below. --sjkted |

This kind of thing will happen when people make mistakes when posting thread titles. Things can sometimes be confusing enough as it is. However, I for one will consider the issue resolved and will endeavor to pay more attention in the future (and not stay up so late). |

thread- can you FORGIVE us: "Yes, we can and we will. We are starting a domino effect right now. We cannot get to anywhere good in the future until we let good of the old. As more and more people get excited about the future, that excitement will be contagious. With such a positive outlook, there will be no more room to hold on to what has happened in days past." |
Re: Parody "I Don't Even Want To Be Alive Anymore" Rush Limbaugh
and I will DEFINITELY be paying more attention!!
hopefully less gullible too :wall: |

As I stated above, it does happen from time to time. Everyone makes mistakes. I certainly make enough of them myself, to preclude my judging others. The question here is whether we learn from them or continue to repeat them. --sjkted |
Re: Parody "I Don't Even Want To Be Alive Anymore" Rush Limbaugh
i know the last part of what i said was harsh, but it was more me being mad at myself for giving more credence to info ive come across on the web, when my gut says people are easily taken in and spread untruths easily.
as small as this was it, it was a wake up call for me to realize that my gut was right-my angry tone was because after calling attention to the initial blunder, and karen CHANGING the header to "parody" and posting a link to the onion, it was STILL being discussed as legit, so yes i seemed like a nut waving my hands. didn mean to offend particular people but again like i said sadly this is indicative of the whole conspiracy world PC in particular, and reminded me that i should follow my instincts that 95% of what i read is way off and really not bother with forums and stick to the little research that i find interesting and not highly speculative realms such as this. again no offense was meant, but yes, like cliff high's problem with bill- this is the same arena and issue, and its a big one and people need to be responsible for the well intentioned actions. again the anger in my posts was really me mad at myself, i tried not to insult and name call, which is easy to do :) |
Re: Parody "I Don't Even Want To Be Alive Anymore" Rush Limbaugh
Lol Clark,
I can understand your exasperation. I start from the point of view that I know nothing and I can verify almost nothing. You may have read some of my own skepticism of posts here. Particularly the fear based ones. I got about a third of the way through the Rush L article before my own scanners started to go...'wait a minute', this can't be for real, surely?' I started to scroll down to add my two penneth, and then found that you had already done so. My feeling is that people are so much in need for something to believe in, outside of their own normal life, that it's all very exciting to want to believ in anything that is out of the ordinary. Of course , there must be a lot of truth in UFOs and all the other goings on. But the biggest truth I'm learning at Avalon is that for some, concentrating on the external far outweighs a desire to look to the internal. All a good story needs is a believable known fact and then something extraoridnary attached to it. In this case it's 1) R.L is an ***hole 2) He's seen the light and is asking for redemption. So my hot tip if anyone is looking for falsehoods, try this 1) find the believeable fact, 2) look for the stretch of your imagination - the pulling of your chain if you will. If an article has both of these in spades, likely it's a story...not the real thing. The truth is out there, and it's mostly more boring than fiction. Want to write me a good story of your day yesterday? :original: K |
