The Bicker Board

Everyone thinks their national politics posts and their kings are perfectly fine.  That whole thread is national politics. People are even posting about Chicago. LMAO

The best way to remain UNO-bliterated by posters with one arm tied behind their backs and the truth in their sails, is to just keep it local.  Be the change you want to see.  

MyMan is 100% right.  Maybe just listen.

I'm not going to comment on MyMan being right, but you, Tang, are 100% right.

You THINK your national politics posts and your kings are perfectly fine.

As such, you, and apparently others, think your two posts about Tom Homan and his new found "unprecedented cooperation" with local law enforcement actions in Minnesota (just think what that really means) is 100% Hilo, Puna and Hawaii related, while at the same time, think my "cute youtubes video" of a "past prez" born and raised in Hawaii with humility to poke fun of himself (god, if only we had that today, hey?) by trying to dunk a cookie that is too big for his glass of milk and then blaming himself for it is pure National Politics, whereas I think, and apparently only me, its the other way around.

just a cotton-pickin' minute there cowgirl, that there sounds like double reverse upside down burnt orange orangutan Uno right there! LMAO

LMAO is right! Again Tangy, two "rights" in a row! You just keep stacking up more and more "rights" as you go! Careful someone doesn't take them all way from you!

Once again however, you played it very well. You even fooled MyMan, the staunch PunaWeb defender of no National Politics on PunaWeb. But I am beginning to think that staunch defense is only about what he perceives might be National Politics from my posts only, but, nonetheless, that's why you got the 2026 PunaTang Upside Down & Backwards Reverse Uno Response Award, with Highest Distinction!

Again, congrats my brother!

The very sad reality is that we can't even have a thread to help Punawebbers in need of food without the self same sanctimonious posters above, posting about Michelle Obama and trying to get their trolling national politics digs in - in a thread just designed to help people.  You should be absolutely ashamed of yourselves. You are trolls in every sense of the word. That's just fine though with M2 and management.  Must be "the context" that makes that all OK.  

The farcical hypocrisy of the virtuous-signaling sanctimony in the last few posts is clearly part of the trolling. Even the nicest people on Punaweb feel the need to toss in an "orangutan" here and there. Tee-hee.  That's OK on Punaweb.  So once in a blue moon, when someone tries to ever-so-gently shine just a tiny bit of light, maybe to get you to look outside of your box, which no doubt leads to a flood of behind the scenes post reports from those who are experiencing cognitive dissonance and are outright offended that there might possibly be an angle other than what their programmers have so repetitively drilled into them with careful staging and propaganda on all of the "acceptable" news sources, either deal with it, or just don't post that nonsense yourselves. Simple.  

Let the reports begin - rolls eyes.

Tang - it'd be a lot easier to take you seriously if you didn't return from being banned and start back into your old right-wing conspiracy-minded nonsense with the "plantains and grain" shtick. You're not a new user and have a history and rep that I hope you would choose to step away from and start over. I'd love for you to focus on helping the people of Puna access food, am even willing to help, but not when you're using your time here mostly to troll, then delete/change your posts to try and avoid responsibility for what you originally said.

But if you want to play trolling games then that goes both ways - golden rule, you get what you give. I'm happy to stop treating you like a troll if you stop trolling. Deal? (Please, seriously, I'm sure you, and I, and everyone else have better things to do)

Being very clear here and assuming the best, but I was not the one posting about Michelle Obama, nor am I the one calling someone an orangutan. However, to say that someone else calling somebody an orangutan as "an here or there matter," is a bit disingenuous. I'd say its more of a repetitive, continual and often used term:

Like here

And look, over here

Then even here

OMG - here too!

And lastly, here

And to be clear, I did call somebody an orangutan once, to which now, I do regret, however, and while not excusing my digression in any way, I used in a quoted reference. As in here.

Now my next concern is somebody will see you and me making these one for one, back and forth posts with each other and then complain that I make too many posts a day.

That's just fine though with M2

I’d like to clear something up.  Contrary to popular belief by some, I neither live inside your computer, or inside my computer, monitoring each letter, word, and sentence as it’s typed.

Often I am on tour with Rob Brydon, standing behind him when he performs his small man in a box routine.

When we’re ready to post our thoughts, here’s something else we can ask ourselves.

Will my post make the world a better place if I click Post Reply?  
Or will it make the world a better place if I don’t Post Reply?

[Punatang]

M2 can confirm that I was banned for posting two words.  "Ask M2". The totality of my final post.

M2 can also confirm that I was banned for about three days.  That is all.  I'm sure M2 felt guilty as hell for even that - because it was lame and so far below the level of things you and the trolletts get away with every day - it's just that "they" agrees with you.  You should have seen the stuff "they" deleted that exposed who "they" are when "they" were just getting used to juggling "their" sock puppets.

I stayed away for many months by choice. Not because I was banned.  Even a dimwit can see who has a line through their name and who does not.

I do not care how you treat me.  You are a troll.  Post whatever nonsense you like.  Make and ass of yourself in a thread about helping hungry people. You always do.  You just expose yourself to everyone with a clue, except yourself.  You have no class.  It is what it is.  No love lost.

You know what, people are saying and I am hearing the same stuff - it MUST be true!

Oh yeah, you forgot to say "quiet, piggy!"

ETA: Dammit!!! Now you got me all giddy and blustered about this apparently super duper top secret cabal of PunaWeb sock puppet(s) and just who exactly this "they" is???? Is there any conspiracy theory you DON'T believe?? Do I need to look inside MY computer?????

Ohh, I got chills up and down my spine now...

[ironyak]

Ok Tang - it's clear you don't want to understand one another, possibly for reasons going all the way back to your deleted "natural gas" post. I'm sorry to hear this.

I never said you were banned for months - as you said, it was clear to almost everyone over the months that you were able to post if you wanted to, it was even discussed here on a few occasions.

I'm comfortable with the words I post, which is why I don't delete anything, and when I get something wrong, I'm able and willing to admit when I make a mistake. Eating crow and humble pie is just part of being an intellectually honest person and a key to learning. Everyone makes mistakes, welcome to being human.

But if you want to show how much more classy you are than me or anyone else, maybe don't hop on the "let's attack the immigrants" train. How you can square that sort of hate-filled rhetoric and behavior with any notion of Aloha is beyond me, but I'm willing to have it explained.
