GAY EVERYTHING now....soon to be BEASTIALITY and polygamy will be coming soon. Transgender everything!

NO RESPECT for Police and teachers!

But ALL this I can cull down to ONE WORD.....LIBERALS!!!! They have RUINED this country!

I don't see what issue they have with polygamy, I mean that was the thing tons of people were into during those ancient days. I'm not sure the bible really says anything against it unless it was modified by certain kings.

"We have kicked GOD and His Son, Jesus, out of this country! "
That's why you fucks have the majority

"The feminists have talked weak women into free sex and ABORTION!!"
The younger generations realize they have more freedom than you. They don't have to conform to the kitchen slave baby maker.

" Parents don't teach their kids ANY manners, hats off in a restaurant or at the table"
What is this? School?

"Yes Mam....No Sir....."
I'm not calling a whiny old gently caress like you either of these since you act like a loving child with no consideration for anyone else but yourself.

"Hold the door open for people"
People, and kids, do this all the time because it's just common curtesy. Sorry those auto doors at the store don't have a little colored door slave shackled to them to open and close it instead of the electronics.

"charitable giving"
Pfft, yeah, cause freep is well known for their charity

"GOING TO CHURCH on SUNDAYS!"
OH MY GOD THE KIDS AREN'T BEING BRAINWASHED ENOUGH! HOW WILL THEY JESUS PROPERLY WITHOUT SOMEONE PREACHING!?

"Prayers at home!"
I'll bet you only pray at home

"NO RESPECT for Police"
I have no respect for someone that abuses their power. You need to earn respect to get it, or is that something you failed to be taught oh wise one?

" But ALL this I can cull down to ONE WORD.....LIBERALS!!!! They have RUINED this country!"
Or maybe, just maybe old fucks like you are a prime motivator? I know I became less willing to go to church because old bastards like you couldn't help but lecture and humiliate all of the kids there. Slowly bit by bit they stopped coming. When questions and doubts came up in my mind i was told to just believe and sit down. I'm not going to hold the door or treat you with respect if you're like this to me, gently caress off. Again, you gotta earn respect. You don't just get it or demand it.
All the old fucks like you demand everyone give them everything while you bitch and act like spoiled brats. You can gently caress right off with all the rest of your decrepid old turd generation that's constantly trying to put the boot to everyone's throat

A decent amount of times annoying "polite" people hold the door open for me when I'm far behind them and then I'm obligated to hurry to not leave them "politely" standing there.

People should hold the door a shitload less. If a bunch of people are going in give it that good shove or a bit of a backwards hold to let the person behind you grab it easily so it doesn't swing shut in their face. Only hold it for people who actually need it. Don't loving stand there like an idiot for me or a small group of friends who are far behind your stupid rear end.

Same goes for cars. If I'm fifteen feet from an intersection and we're the only people conflicted about this crossing, just loving go instead of sitting there waving me on while I walk towards the crossing. Five cars could have easily just cruised across before I got near the crossing. If you sit there like a moron while I walk up I'm more likely to hesitate and assume you're on your phone or drunk or high or something and liable to randomly start up and run me over, rather than "letting" me cross.

Heck, I'm drunk. The youngest death they reported was 31 years old, the oldest was 90. A quick check suggests AAoC was 61.2 years of age, median AoC was 60.5. That implies that the average dead freeper was born sometime in the 1950s. Average life expectancy of a white male born in 1950 was 66.5 years old, so freepers are checking out roughly 5 years younger than one would expect. An unknown percentage of the dead freepers were presumably female (life expectancy of 72.2 years when born in 1950), which would pull the overall life expectancy up and imply that freepers are checking out even more prematurely.

What's the story with St.Louie1, the dead furry with an unknown last name or birth date?

I did a quick scan and counted 61 men to 27 women at a bit past the halfway point of the page. I skipped a few ambiguous names. Freepers having an AAoC of somewhere around six years below the average for their peer group is both kind of funny, and also fitting.

Another take-away from my scan: Freeper women die in pairs.

I’m alone, trying to ignore the holiday until it’s over.

Been a rough year, thought as recently as wo months ago there was a 50/50 chance I wouldn’t survive 2019.

I prayed. A lot, and long and hard. I don’t know know if God spared me or because of good genes, perhaps a combination of both. I’m not at all through the woods, but after two years I finally got a diagnosis and a proposed remedy.

I’m watching a lot of tv today and will again tomorrow, just trying to take my mind off not having someone to be with. Very hard to keep my mind off the wayback machine, but I expect to survive.

For what it’s worth you may be physically alone, but there are many like us, and we’re with you in spirit.

No Christmas movies or news for me for a couple of days. Looking forward to going to bed soon and sleeping a while.

Then it will be time to go to store and get a jalapeño pepper.

A lot of evangelical Christians are more loyal to secular Israel than they are the US. The way they interpret the Bible makes no sense to me. The modern state of Israel has nothing to do with the Israel mentioned in the bible. Evangelicals have been manipulated into fighting wars for a secular country that rejects Jesus, has one of the world’s most liberal abortion laws, and is as far from God as any modern country. Our actions have decimated the Christian communities in the middle east. Most of the evangelical leaders who support Trump do it based on their obsession with Israel. They made that clear when Trump tried getting us out of Syria. I’m sick of the Israel first people on the right. Some of these people want to make end time prophecy a reality with irresponsible and stupid actions. I have no doubt many would rejoice if a nuclear bomb destroyed Damascus. Some would probably launch it if they could.
