Can't we all just get along?

It gets extremely tiresome to see the blue on blue hate going on in here. Gentlemen, this is your refuge, where you know there are other "super fans"(looks at Turbo Cool) and alum of the school that you love, who feel the same way about said school. JUST LIKE YOU!

Now I know it is a lot of testosterone floating around here and I understand and appreciate a good pissing match. But I prefer to write my name in the snow of the opposition and by opposition I mean the guys wearing the different color uniforms, say like, da bucknuts (which would be scarlet and gray) and our little brother jan brady syndrome sparties.(green and white) And lest I forget, dat damn school in Indiana who's leader, last I heard, ate their schools colors.

Now please can we stop the Maize and Blue on Maize and Blue hate? And remember next time you get the urge to have a pissing match the border to Ohio is a deliberate turn south. Aim in that direction. That way when you are done pissing at least your marking new territory.

I originally wrote this post as a sign of solidarity with His Dudeness who was calling for a truce to all the bickering that has been going on here lately. I posted it on its own seperate thread as to further this endeavour and solicit a cease fire. It seems to a couple of factions forming on the board that are starting to take over threads having wars with one another. Am just asking that we chill out on all the blue on blue cyber crime and focus our energy against the true enemies of the state.

If you have to ask twice it means that you didn't get it the first time.

why EVERY SINGLE POST has to turn into a slap fight?

It seems that almost every post lately goes something like this:

OP: This is my opinion.

Crave Morehead: Something stupid.

Promote Rich Rod: Something about how that was dumb.

Crave Morehead: Something about how our recruits don't excite him and thusly they suck erect male parts.

Chitown: Crave Morehead is dumb.

Dex: Crave Morehead is dumb.

KSK: Crave Morehead is dumb.

Crave Morehead: Picture of something dumb. Also, something stupid.

His Dudeness: What the fuck are we talking about again?

In conclusion I would just like to comment that this is the first diary in which I am have been mentioned by commentor name. Giggity Goo.

True, but when you post complaining about the complaining about the complaining, aren't you just feeding the complaining fire?

that we could vacuum seal all the complaints in this one thread so the fire would consume everything and burn itself out. like in Backdraft. without the explosion and even worse fire parts of the backdraft.

its not technically a vacuum. I guess oxygen-free environment would be a better choice of words. and it wouldn't start out that way, the fire would consume it all and then die.

but thats not important now.

(1) Make specific topic headings on the Board;

(2) Make a 30-second effort to look at the Board and see if your topic has been addressed before you set up a new post;

(3) Don't justify your comments by "Those Who Will Stay ..." or "Michigan Man;" and

(4) Don't ask TomVH for updates on whether a sophomore from Alpena is going to be a 2 or 3 star, or whether he is going to commit before summer camp. He'll let us know when there is something worth knowing.

That should reduce some of the squabbles.

Agreed. I think that this is actually a BIG source of the hate going on. While all of these things are all good to do, it does not require peopole to mention it like 12 times in a thread where it doesn't. It may be easier just to ignore posts that don't meet your standards, as opposed to bitching about them.

Not trying to piss you off though.

If I walk down the street and see someone raping a dog, I tell them to stop.

If I see someone posting utterly terrible shit, I make fun of them until they stop it or leave.

Same thing. Don't let crime go unpunished.

whether or not there is a current Poet Laureate here at MgoBlog, but rather how much Brian pays you at this position.

Pure literary art. Even for the WLA.

I am a fan of Dex's humor. I even put a post up once calling his writing "mid evil" in the hopes that he would attack the obvious opening but that bastard just let it slide...lol Damn it Dex, I am worth being trashed on a post too. You lousy bastard!

I've consulted Rodney King, and he proposes that we all just get along.

And, Route66, Dude, I am good for my word. Get to Ann Arbor, and I will get you that spot--in the front row! (Just like Bob Uecker style).

And, the problems is not that we fight a lot in here, its that we never make up. Make up sex is the best.

I know the WLA hates me with the passion of a million suns, but that's a compliment. However, I will extend an olive branch to them. I hope the fire they all die in burns really, really fast so they don't suffer much. Just kidding. I actually find them very entertaining, and fun to insult.

So, to put it another way, time wounds all heels.
