Sore winners, bad losers, and assholes on JU

You people are making me sick....Really!

Published on November 5, 2004 By thatoneguyinslc In Politics

I have been pretty good natured about the results of this years presidential election. I figure the will of the people has been done...Good or bad, they have spoken. That's the way the system works. He who gets the votes wins. You would think that as adults we could accept the results and go on with the regular business of the day on JU. Like debating issues, discussing subjects other than politics, making jokes, and discussing our everyday lives..Some of us have. And some of us are acting like spoiled fucking children. Here are my examples.

Repubs: I have to admit, the majority of you have been really good about the election. But some of you are just in serious need of a severe beating. Did you act like this when you were kids and decide it was acceptable behavior in your adult life? Did you revel in geting your parents to take your side in an arguement with a sibling and then taunt them as soon as your parents left the room? You would think that since you are soooo fucking enamored with your president you might follow his example of reconciliation as opposed to tormenting the losing side.. GROW THE FUCK UP FOR GODS SAKES! This ain't elementary school people. Act accordingly ok?

Dems: You are an embarrassment to our party! Did you NOT listen to John Kerry the other day? Are you fucking DEAF? Or are you just retarded?
He specifically pleaded with us to try to work it all out, but yet you advocate open revolution and whine and cry about a fraudulent election...Guess what. It was a fair election. Accept it, move on, and plan for 2008. They have nobody. We will get our chance so SHUT THE FUCK UP already. Life is a contact sport people, if you can't handle a shot in the nuts once in a while....maybe you shouldnt show up for practice! You make me sick.

All you jesus revelation assholes posting in my blog: ENOUGH! This is not the end of days. bush 2.0 is NOT the antichrist. You people are fucking wackos and nobody at JU takes you seriously. If you are so worried about bush 2.0 causing the rapture. Make peace with your god, and leave me the fuck alone. I hate you all and hope you die!

I just don't understand it people. You would think that as adults we would know better than this. I thought for the most part, we were all intelligent rational people capable of creative and thought provoking blogs?

I guess i was wrong.

I'm done....I'm gonna watch Sealab and get away from you assholes for a while.

And thanks to all of you who are behaving like adults. You are the only thing keeping me from cancelling my JU account right now.

Thanks for reading,

I would have to climb on one of the poorly funded UTA buses around here

Ahhhhh, the UTA!!!! At least out here in Durham they have a cool name. Oh yes, we can ride the DATA! That rocks. Though I have yet to ride it.

But I have many memories of UTA rides either to Ogden or (more often) down to Salt Lake. Haven't ever had a chance to ride TRAXX yet though. Perhaps one of these days (maybe when we are out visiting family over Thanksgiving).

Umm, sorry for the thread jack thatoneguy!

I work in Ogden, and live 'tween SLC and Ogden... it's a really small world...!!

I grew up in good old Bountiful. Went to High School at Viewmont. It is a small world, ain't it?

thatoneguy.... if you left...I would have to climb on one of the poorly funded UTA buses around here, and go down there to slc, and kick your butt, then force you to get back on!!

I better stick around then! We Utahns need to stick together

I think a lot of us moderates feel really uncomfortable with what's been happening in cyberspace as of late.... and this is a great articulation of the madness of both sides pushing into the middle.... well said.

I hear you. The web is scary right now. I cannot believe some of the stuff going on at DU right now. Makes me sick. Thanks History!

There is rhyme and reason to everything...

You know what I'm tired of? People bitching about other people. Like this article. You are bitching about the bitching. Now I'm bitching about your bitching. This is lame. I normally enjoy what you write, but did we really need another rendition of "let's all just shut up and get along?"

Bleh.

I am scared to ride TRAX.... afraid I'd never get off. How is the world do those things stop? I don't like subways either!!

Yes, until people get the point....

Jill, i totally agree. By the way... I want to thank you and Brad for being part of the gracious winners. I wish some of the righties would follow your lead.

Very kind of you. I just keep in mind that the opposition felt as passionate about the outcome as I did and how I would feel if things had come out the opposite. I certainly wouldn't appreciate the gloating. I had enough "Your guy sucks" prior to the election. It is time to come to terms with the new situation we are all in together. Hopefully we can all learn how to respect each other and then things will fall into place IMO.

Actually Myr..It started out as a full on rant. It has just turned into something else. I'm just as pissed off about the election. But i don't see why you have to take it so personally. The will of the people has been done. That's the american way. You don't have to like it but you have to accept it man. I'm just tired of the petty bickering on BOTH sides. It doesn't mean that the fire is not in my heart. I just think there are more constructive ways to get our point across than acting like little kids. You know i respect your opinions and writings, I have always thought you and i were cut from the same cloth. and i hope we will still be there to back each other up and keep each other honest in the blogs. If we don't stick together here, it turns into Little Big Horn and were the cavalry...Get it!

Don't hate me too much man. I promise i'll get back in the game soon!
