Kitty Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 Originally posted by nevermind: Why? :confused: Ok, like I told Andreas . . . I've always had cats for pets. I love cats. Once upon a time I had two black cats. My ex-husband killed them in front of me and it wasn't a very pleasant experience. That picture you posted was of someone's pet, probably a loved pet. No matter how it died, to put it in a box and label it for sale is just ****in' sick to me. Sure, I posted pictures of entrails here, but to me there's a difference between posting pictures of entrails of animals that were used for food and posting a picture of a someone's dead pet in a box labled "for sale" purely to try to get a laugh. And if I could ever lay my hands on whoever ****in' did that I wouldn't hesitate to kill them. Maybe that's extreme but hey if you can't understand that I don't know how else to put it.

Kitty Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 You haven't seen uncalled for yet. You're ok, Axe . . . so is everyone else in here as far as I can tell . . . that's why I came here in the first place. I don't mind being insulted, called names, etc., that's what I expect here. But if what's his name can't, as he calls it, "tippy toe around" this issue (and by the way, how insulting is that?) that pisses me off. If he told me something bugged him personally I'd say, "OK," and back off. I THOUGHT this thread was about kidding each other and friendly attacks but when it becomes more than that, what's the point?

Mace Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 Originally posted by nevermind: I disagree with your perspective on what dead animals or entrails are ok and which arent.I'll have to disagree with you. you eat a ham sandwich or tuck into roast lamb and you normally don't associate it with a living animal - someone posts a picture of intestines and again, there's no direct association back to the animal it came from. But when you post the picture of the whole animal then there's a 100% association with the animal, and a lot of people get uncomfortable dealing with dead animals. So when some idiot has gone to the effort to make a bad taste joke out of a dead cat in a box by arranging it and taking a photo, it becomes more distateful. Shame you can't understand this.

_Axe_ Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 Hey, the only person I've ever had a problem with in 2,500+ posts on these boards is an admitted National Socialist. I think being rude behind a keyboard is no different than being rude in person. And I know for a fact some of the Cheery Wafflers don't appreciate foul language. Besides, life's far too short. The woods are lovely, dark and deep. But I have promised PBEM turns to keep, And miles to go before I sleep, And miles to go before I sleep.

Becket Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 :confused: :confused: :confused: Remember, all TNT slathering here is supposed to be good natured....IMO if you really do offend someone you should apologize (by email if not on the board). For the record, I'm also against turning this place into a flame fest with responses, too. If you want to do whatever damage you choose and say screw you, I hear the Pengers have an opening.

Boo at least had the sense to try smoke, but it didn't help. The bastich also has two StuGs dug into hull down positions deeper than a Georgia tick on a hound dog. Soddball's Tiger brigade is bringing death and destruction to my armor in the desert. I sprung a little M10 trap, but sadly only got a few partial penetrations. DaveH bleeds at Trig 29.

Yeah, I bet the remainder of your troops are enjoying their "dinner" with fava beans and a nice chianti. Which reminds me....have you lot read Craig's Enemy at the Gates?

Masked profanity like "****e" and "feckin'" isn't foul? "Nads" isn't foul? "My wives are lubricating themselves," isn't foul? "Nature's penis enlarger isn't foul?" "sweaty wrestler cracks" isn't foul? "You've been banging boys too long" isn't foul? Come on, dude. =) Kitty [ January 31, 2004, 08:49 PM: Message edited by: Kitty ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Specifically, the bit about cannibalism among Italian POWs after the Russians starved them? *shivers* Yep. The novel The Forsaken Army by Heinrich Gerlach deals with the collapse of the 6th Army. Nasty indeed. Interesting story behind the novel too. Gerlach was in hospital with dysentery in late 1942 but was sent back into action just before Operation Uranus (talk about bad timing) and was taken into captivity by the Russians. As a POW, he managed to interview dozens of soldiers -- from privates to generals -- and began keeping notes. He compiled the notes into the novel in minute handwriting in an excerise book only 20 pages long and tried to get it smuggled out. The NKVD found it, along with the original notes, and took them. Gerlach was released in 1950 and, later on, underwent hypnosis to recall what he had written down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snarker Posted February 1, 2004 Author Share Posted February 1, 2004 I'm back! Miss anything? :mad: :mad: :mad: Axe, I never had my arm almost bitten off by a lion, but then again I was smart enough not to take that triple dog dare. :mad: Did see a tiger spray a cub scout at the Ringling Bros., Barnum & Bailey circus when the little bugger started teasing him.
