He even put in a line in Xak III by one of the townspeople in the first city saying something like "Whats that? You're a Republican? Good for you! Better than being a disgusting lowlife Democrat!" ...or something.
No no no, don't ruin it with inaccurate paraphrasing to the best of your memory. It was this sequence:
I was in silly mood, completely hateful of the Secular Liberal Left after 9-11 and their behavior, so that's what inspired that. I wanted to plug the site mostly, and then I thought since I'm just appending those lines, why now add a few more? I was quite in anti-censorship mode at the time. Instead of censoring myself on what I felt, I decided to express it.
A little late to the party in the thread, I know, but I thought I'd join anyway. I was surprised to find what I did there brought up in a thread so recently. Anyway, I was tempted to add more of that in my Ys patches, preferably something a little more clever than that, but liberals haven't pissed me off as much to have gone that far. I'm just not as aggravated by them as much.
Steve you might want to avoid lengthy conversations with the guy who did the ys translations if you don't want them spoiled by association.
Oh ho ho, clever is you. Don't worry - I hate you liberals as much as you hate me, or at least, you should, because, in all honesty, I am your enemy. But Keranu makes a good point. I enjoyed my pre-9-11 youth and naivete before I knew anything about politics. Apathy is good. He should enjoy being in that position while he has it because you can change dramatically when and if you do become interested in the subject.
These days, I too attempt not to let agitators suck me into serious scuffles. They take a lot of energy and I have more important things to be doing than arguing with people over the Internet. But it is hard and I sometimes am unable to avoid it. However, I did make one attempt in that I stopped going to a board I was visiting for about 3 years given the shear amount of AAAs posting there (Angry Angsty Atheists as I refer to them) - it just finally occured to me I cannot stand being around them and it's pointless. Usually they're ex-Catholic/Christian and what not, in other words, they're weren't atheists early in life, and those are usually the ones I cannot stand the most. They just seem to have a bigger chip on their shoulders than an atheist who's been that way most of their life. I can manage to get along better with those. Just a general obversation, mind you, not an authoritative statement that all of them would fall into; just the ones I've run into over the Internet in the last 4 years or so.
Anyhow, if a person of such an ideological persuasion is respectful and has a trait known as intellectual honesty (which is very important to me when I make judgment about someone), I am more than willing to oblige in return. But yeah, good pot shot there, bud. I should've checked this board more often, but it took Aaron long enough to get rid of ezboard which was a good deterrent to getting more board members. I checked it from time to time as guest when he reopened it, but it didn't seem like the activity was building up so much. Then recently, the Forum Index disappeared for guests, so I registered to do the occasional quick browsing.
