May 1st, 2003: 140 US soldiers dead


Feb. 19th, 2007: 3,140 US soldiers dead

If the mission was accomplished, why have 3,000 more US soldiers died?

95.5% of the US soldiers killed have been killed since "Mission Accomplished".

Because it hasn't been accomplished. Everyone admits that was a mistake.

That didn't last long, 4 more just died.

Dead US soldiers = dead horses?

Maybe if you hadn't replied less than a minute after I posted that, you would have taken the 10 seconds necessary for any competent person to understand that post.

You are a joke on a bad acid trip. Must you be a retard on every thread I post?

Okay, I think you have destroyed Alcon's Hollywood career enough for today. Don't make me force you to take another timeout, Mr. "I Destroy America By Reading Other People's Serge Lang Textbooks" Ratfink Pinko Commie.

Also, quit being a Republican apologist, Alcon. You can't save America with your Republican... catching bald eagle eggs as they fall from the sky whatever.

I've come to accept that this is jfern's equivalent of "Oops, my bad.  Sorry for the misunderstanding."

jfern = MASSIVE Freedom Fighter
Alcon = right wing apologist

I've also come to accept that this is a sign that BRTD hasn't even read the previous posts, let alone understood what was said.

I agree. Jfern threads are like watching a mental trainwreck in motion and seeing how many people will be pulled along for the ride.

Wow, this stupid forum shows the brain-dead bandwagon on jfern bashing yet again.

Wow, this stupid forum shows the brain-dead bandwagon on jfern bashing yet again.

Looking at the bolded section there;

1. Why do you still come here?

2. Why can't you ever admit that you are frequently occasionally wrong?

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED

[Gabu]

No offense, but I have to agree with Alcon in that this is beating a dead horse.  This is at least the third or fourth time that someone has pointed out the number of soldiers killed since Bush made the amazingly dumb decision to say "mission accomplished".  If it didn't do anything then, it's not going to suddenly do something now.

This is big news.....from a couple of years ago.

Remember the 'rolodex scandal'?  The premature death of King Fahd?  Your outright refusal to spell certain words correctly?  Your completely false attribution of opinions to myself and others, with no apology?

It's honestly okay to admit when you're wrong from time to time, and to take it on the chin.  I find a self-deprecating joke sometimes helps.  These are merely tips that might help explain why most people on here resort to 'jfern-bashing', as you put it.  To put it simply, your habit of lashing out at people with insults provides very little reason for people you disagree with to maintain any kind of respect for you.

Also, you didn't answer my first question.

OMG... I'm going to make another hsterical thread about something that everyone already knows.

In case you missed it, we're still in Iraq. I fail to see how Bush's "Mission Accomplished" isn't relevant any more. Alcon's point was pretty stupid. I wish he'd stop trolling my threads.

Rolodex - Wow, I used a wrong word a couple of years ago, and admitted I was wrong.
King Fahd -  FauxNews reported that'
Misspelled words - Who the hell cares?

Now, this forum incorrectly has argued that I was wrong when I right zillions of times. Remember the coin tossing? They never admitted I was right there.

Now, please STFU.

I didn't say that it isn't relevant.  I said that mentioning it is not going to do anything, which is... simply a fact.  It didn't do anything the first time it was tried, either.

If you want to continue hitting your head against a brick wall, that's your prerogative; I'm just trying to save you from wasting your time.

[Joe Republic]

Fernie, you've again forgotten to answer my first question.  You seem to hate us all about as much as we do you, if not more, so... why do you still come here?

[Everett]

No offence to everyone else, but what exactly compels you to continue responding to jfern's threads? If he seriously pisses you off that much, please consider ignoring him. Whilst ignoring people is understandably more difficult because this forum doesn't have an automatic "ignore user" feature (which would be extremely useful), it definitely isn't impossible; I have been ignoring several posters for a while and whatever previous conflict there was seems to have (mostly) subsided.

It's really hard to tell when someone is being humourous versus deliberately insulting on the Internet. Sometimes it's hard even on the phone. Learning the difference takes a while, but it's a worthwhile investment to decrease the amount of misunderstanding and overreacting that results from seemingly hostile remarks.

That said, I don't pay enough attention to know exactly who has been starting what and where. After an extended period of time, the origins of insults become irrelevant. Anyway, I don't want anyone getting defensive and responding to this post with "he's such an idiot!", "but... but he insulted me here! and there!", and "you were trolling me, so I trolled you back!!!111" because I really, really don't care who did what anymore.

Before someone decides to call me a jfern apologist or similar bullsh**t, I don't feel like directing any comments toward him in public.
