MODERATORS
I'm very sorry, I had no idea I was talking to someone with a substance abuse problem so badly that it would impair their basic judgment.
Again, I sincerely hope you get the help you need.
Look at you! Passing judgement on a stranger again!!
I don’t have a substance abuse problem. You have a stick up your patoot & crave the approval of this comments section.
Just acknowledge your opinion isn’t gospel. Just acknowledge you don’t have all the info on jousting you think you have. Just acknowledge you don’t like football & don’t think other should either.
It’s going to be a lonely mountain to stand on top of if you keep calling everyone who disagrees with you a drunken liar.
”Jousting was dangerous and could result in serious injuries, including broken bones, internal injuries, and even death. Injuries could include bruising, skewering, and decapitation”
[“Despite all these safeguards it could still be lethal, as Henry found out. "Twice, in 1524 and 1536, his love of jousting brought him within inches of death - even for kings it was a dangerous sport", remarks Thom Richardson in his book”
Henri II of France died in 1559 when a splinter of lance pierced his eye-slit and Charles IX was seriously injured in 1561, which largely contributed to the decline in jousting in France, according to Zeev Gourarier in his article "From the game of ‘catching the brass ring’ to the roundabout" (Livrustkammaren, Journal of the Royal Armoury, 1991-2).](https://www.livescience.com/jousting)
It's even given you a memory problem.
Again, I sincerely hope you get the help you need.
Memory problems… you called me a liar for claiming jousting led to decapitations. I just proved myself correctly.
Seems like you’re the one sundowing here Goldie. Should we settle you down in front of Wheel of Fortune so you can vibe with your favorite bigot, Pat Sayjack?
Or maybe you prefer the feud & the hypocrite Steve Harvey.
You are the liar. Liar Liar Pants on Fire….
You're apparently already drunk.
Yet again, I sincerely hope you get the help you need.
No, I’m onto my peyote now.
I really hope you get a sliver of pine wood to eye, from a Douglas fir lance, after a horse rolls up on your shattered pelvis, as you lie there wishing you had half the medical resources available to a football player.
Then maybe. Just maybe. You’ll acknowledge you aren’t the end all of be all of this conversation.
“Talkin’ tough’s easy when it’s other people’s evil & you’re judging what they do & don’t believe”
I really hope you start seeing other opinions as valid & that you can stop assuming everyone’s a drunken liar.
You are the only one who can help me, please don’t go. Please don’t leave my all alone with my multitudes of football fans.
I promise I’ll read your bible & subscribe to your newsletter. I’ll even badger all my friends on Facebook to purchase your magic elixir.
Just please don’t leave me, I’m so drunk and alone without you.
OH SUQIDZY WHERE HAVE YOU GONE!!!!!’
