Terms of Use:

This thread is for those who have been banned from the Let's Talk About Our Feelings thread. All opinions are welcome here, including:

The Savage Indians of the Western Plains

The Vegetarianism of Hitler

Immoral Unions

Ayn Rand

Uncle Screwtape

Animal Rights

or anything else that shocks and frightens those annoying people on that other thread with the freedom and tranquility of knowing that it can't happen here.

However, name calling, character assassination, reliving the past just to stir up trouble, and foul, uncivil behavior in general are not. I like to ban people, and will do so at will with no warning. Please express your feelings without destroying others.

It was once said, and very rightly, that a man who is well brought up may read anything. The only people who boggle at what is perfectly natural are those who are the worst swine and the finest experts in filth. In their utterly contemptible pseudo-morality they ignore the contents and madly attack individual words.

Those who boggle at strong language are cowards, because it is real life which is shocking to them, and weaklings like that are the very people who cause most harm to culture and character. They would like to see the nation grow up into a group of over-sensitive little people - masturbators of false culture of the type of St. Aloysius, of whom it is said in the book of the monk Eustachius that when he heard a man breaking wind with deafening noise he immediately burst into tears and could only be consoled by prayers.

People like that express their indignation in public but take unusual pleasure in going to public lavatories to read obscene inscriptions on the walls.
