Short Story of the Day
Hi! I am starting a new thread where I will post a new short story each day this week (each business day, anyway). I am hoping people will read and (if inclined) discuss the stories.

So, the following is my first forum discussion in the intro to business practice...
The topic of this forum thread was "Is Wal-Mart's business practices good or fair? Both or neither?"

the liberals will probably like my response and the conservatives hate it, but I think it will be an interesting discussion for us here and I got to refer back to a HuffPo article listed here sometime back. So COOL!

Of Twerking and Terrible, Terrible Pop Songs--What Do We Pay Attention To?
So until today I was blissfully unaware of what the VMAs even were, let alone (Facebook jokes aside) what happened there with a certain Ms. Cyrus and...you know, forgoing all of...that (though really, WTF?!) I'd rather ask another question--assuming that most here likewise couldn't care less about Ms. Cyrus or Mr. Bieber or *Insert Pop Icon For the Masses Here*...what DO we care about, and why does the majority gravitate to these things we raise eyebrows at?

Did he decide we weren't worthy? Or did he just impart upon us his knowledge of Everything, then fade away, his work here done, to another forum where his adventure starts anew.

I will be leaving this site (for now)
There is a very obvious reason associated with this, specifically that we are discussing the same thing over and over again, and not getting anywhere. I certainly enjoyed my time on this forum, but now I am moving on to a Traditionalist Catholic forum (http://catholicforum.fisheaters.com) because it sounds like a fun trolling project and I can't let Sbyvl get away from me. If you wish to contact me, you can't, because phones didn't exist in 1625 and that's the time I live in.

Man, if you're going to do this, you can do better.

Oh geeesh Jack....I haven't had a drink in months, and your gonna come on here and say that? lol Good lord, bitch, find a new line of attack. Attack me if you feel the need (which I don't get...I'm not even in this thread)...but find some fresh new line of assault. That says something...a *great deal*....about your character, chump...

Not at all Jack -- I've been quite open in the threads about my situation - and I'm poroud that I've tackled my problem. Your massive character faults, on the other hand, are still glaringly obvious to all.

I just find it a little droll of you to pull me out of your hat as a line of attack in a thread I'm not even in. In your mind, this is kicking a guy while he's down...which is pretty much par for you - you are a guy that has no character, who pretends to have these high liberal ideals, and yet your actions and your life live in contract to the things you state. Since you referenced me, I replied. Sore spot? No...I've dealt with my problems.

Jack_Klein (897 D)

No, you have been drunk when interacting with me, and you have been extremely profane. So no, I'm just referencing something that happened in the past.

Do you deny screaming drunken profanities at me?

All I was saying is that next to the shit that has come out of your mouth, Emac is a light breeze. He's got a long way to go if he wants to be an effective assclown.

That is all. If you choose to get your ass all bent out of shape for having your past made referenced to, that is not my damn problem.

And if this didn't bother you, you'd not reply. So yeah, good to know you've still got a sensitive spot there. Handy information, that.

There's plenty to criticize krellin about, but it's a pretty low blow to make an issue of his alcoholism when he's apparently doing everything he can to get help and deal with it. Tale the high road, Jack Klein.

Jack - by no means do I deny being profane to you...**JUST AS YOU*** are profane to people at times and attack people, including me...as you did here, today, unprovoked, you festering twat.

Anyway...I appreciat that my verbal agility is so highly praised by you...to know that I have gotten ***that deep*** under your skin is delightful. To know that I have pissed you off that much that you randomly attack me, though I haven't conversed with you in weeks, is such a delightful admission of your defeat.

Ahhhhh ha ha ha ha ha!! Well done, Jack...confession is good for your soul.

Your still an asshole.

lol krellin, you replaced "yellowjacket" with "jack" in the above post and now it's funny!

ICwutUdidthere.

Really though, doing a bit of internet searchery to find ammo against a guy like sbyvl is totally acceptable. Nothing shuts up an internet hero faster than reminding him of his real life.
jmo1121109 (3812 D)
02 Sep 13 UTC
I don't think that is his profile, and I'm not usually wrong about these sort of things. Please tell me why he would make a profile under a webdip username instead of his real name? Seems a tad bit too convenient to me. And really, if sbyvl was going to make a dating profile I assume it would be here "http://www.christianmingle.com/"
Yellowjacket (835 D(B))
02 Sep 13 UTC
Too much coincidence. Search for Sbyvl21, Sbyvl54, Sbyvl, Sbyvl1: they don't give any hits. It's gotta be him. I'm guessing Sbyvl36 has a special significance. I didn't make my OKC profile under my real name either; you don't want those wenches to know your last name until you've certified in person they aren't looney toons.
Yellowjacket (835 D(B))

Also, there is good IRL trolling to be done at www.christianmingle.com too.

Arrange a date with a fundie, and then spend the whole time shitting on the bible (figuratively, though literally is also entertaining) while maintaining that you are a true believer and that she's doing it wrong.

@JMO - You are very naïve. Sbyvl already admitted how his name came to be and some people (myself included) use their nicks *everywhere*. I daresay you will find Draugnar on OKCupid back when my wife and I were having troubles. Why the fuck would I make my nick be RobertB or some such? No, the fact that The name went from publicly visible, to privately visible, to deleted in such a short time span after the discovery is a preponderance of evidence that would cost him a lawsuit in civil court. It may be circumstantial, but it is so much that civil court would accept it.

Damn strait, Skippy!

Look all of America learned about preponderance of evidence after OJ walked on the murder charges but was found liable in civil court because the standards for finding on a verdict are much lower in civil court.
