Which came first, Win 95 or 2000. Change is getting harder and harder. Then I thought 8.1 was the final one and along came 10. ughh. ---

> [@VOLVO\_V70](#): > > I had a news site that I liked and their latest upgrade I really don’t like, so I don’t go there - simple solution. Yup! Just like the people who don’t like a certain TV host, and as a result of their personal feelings, they want that person fired by the network. If I find something that I don’t like one night, I simply change the channel, and if it is consistently offensive to me, I just don’t return to that program. Whether someone’s dislike has to do with an internet site, or a TV channel, or even a newspaper, the simple solution is simply to go elsewhere for one’s entertainment in the future. ---

There’s nothing wrong with voicing criticisms and opinions, especially if there is a willing ear… In fact, it actually could be helpful versus just never showing up again. ---

Yeah but I think one of those network guys came totally unhinged. He used words I had never heard before. I suppose its from his sub-culture but I think he should be gone. Its one thing to hate the president and all of the deplorables and let your bias be known, but the sexual remarks about the CIC are uncalled for by a professional. In the 70’s even criticizing Nixon our CIC could result in an Article 15. Obviously this guy has never had a uniform on. ---

> [@common\_sense\_answer](#): > > It was the time I thought I was wrong, but I found out I wasn’t Hey! That’s my line…sort of. When people at work would compliment me on my knowledge of a broad range of subjects, my sarcastic response was, _I thought that I was wrong once, but I was incorrect_. That line produced a lot of confused looks. ---

And I suppose all those racist and hateful things that Trump said are okay . . . ?! Gimme a break All the hate groups and white power groupsare out in the open now They’ve gotten the not so subtle message that their view points and activities WILL be tolerated, and perhaps even admired by many Not by me, though As far as I’m concerned, Colbert did a great thing Trump DESERVED that, after treating John Dickerson with such open and utter disdain. Dickerson was nothing but professional and polite, and Trump treated him like garbage If Trump wants respect, he should SHOW respect And as far as I can tell, he hasn’t done that > [@VDCdriver](#): > > I thought that I was wrong once, but I was incorrect. So the bottom line is . . . you weren’t wrong once, but in fact you were wrong many times? That is the reason you were incorrect about being wrong once? 😊 I’ve made many mistakes, and will continue to do so, and I can laugh about it, too 🙂 ---

Redirect: I just received notification that I am now a member of an exclusive group. Having been a member for a year and made at least one post, I join the other 3245 members. Where the heck are they all? I think I’ve been around here probably 10-15 years though and that rural mailman who I can’t remember his name now, used to get pretty upset. To be fair though, I can’t actually remember a president I liked. Maybe Ike but I was only ten. Never seen this kind of vitriol though for any of them, even Carter who was a bumbling fool. ---

I also got an “anniversary” notification today As for my mailman, it seems every 2 or 3 years, there’s a new face. I have a feeling the local post office won’t let a mail carrier stay on one route more than a few years . . . ? ---

All these awards and $5 bill and I can buy a cup of McD’s coffee. Smedley Butler and I share being former Marines and a great cynicism for the corporate/government control of the military. Maybe I’m smarter than him.

> [@db4690](#): > > As far as I’m concerned, Colbert did a great thing I’m on the same side as you politically. I wish Colbert hadn’t used the exact language he used, for the same reason I wish our president didn’t use the language he used while describing what he likes to force women to endure when he’s around. Of course, it might be nice if our president didn’t feel the need to make women endure such things no matter how he describes them, but apparently that’s asking too much these days. But I do find it funny that the crowd who was busy calling me a liberal cuck snowflake for 18 months is such a bunch of snowflakes that unkind words from a late show host send them into a tailspin of rage. > [@bing](#): > > I just received notification Nice to know I’m not the only one.

You’re the only Marine I’ve talked to that apparently doesn’t get mad when called a “former” Marine. 😉 ---

Not to continue this but its one thing to have a private conversation between two guys recorded some ten-fifteen years ago and not a public figure, and another to be on nation-wide TV. Be honest now, would you have wanted every conversation you had with another guy recorded? I’m sure most of us have said things that would not meet today’s standards. I think it’s time to end these on-going daily attacks and remember that we are all citizens under the same flag. At least most of us, except for the Ausies and Brits. ---

> [@bing](#): > > Not to continue this but its one thing to have a private conversation between two guys recorded some ten-fifteen years ago and not a public figure, Exactly how was Trump NOT a public figure 10-15 years ago, as you said . . . ?! He was extremely well-known at that time > [@bing](#): > > Be honest now, would you have wanted every conversation you had with another guy recorded? Of course not But Trump has said enough things on the record, which I find wholly unacceptable and NOT how a decent person should behave I SERIOUSLY suspect that’s part of the reason for his appeal . . . he talks a lot of smack, he’s crude, rude and insulting, and people wish they themselves could say those things and not get fired, beaten up, arrested, etc. I think to some degree it’s a subconscious thing, but yes, I believe it’s a factor [Previous page](https://community.cartalk.com/t/this-website-has-bcome-the-pits/103518.md?page=1) [Next page](https://community.cartalk.com/t/this-website-has-bcome-the-pits/103518.md?page=3)
