Ray A is banned (soon)

[_why me]

I didn't see any of your posts on PostMo. I've seen plenty here and on MAD, though. Ray A got over his snit so why is this still going on?

The reason I didn't read any of your stuff on PostMo is because I thought "anyone with the screen name of Why Me has got to be a whiner."

I have referred to him as why me the victim. Whiner works well, too.

I hate his avatar too, he had real issues about Bednar, Tommy and Boyd and other avatars being disrespectful but if he reveres Ole Joe as he claims he is showing him absolutely no respect.

This was the born free's analysis on the postmo site. He took my name and ran with it. I tried to explain my name but it just doesn't sink in. On the postmo site I was the only person not whining. I was defending the LDS church against gross generalizations. In fact, the postmos were a whinning lot. They whinned about me and my posts. I posted my Marxisms and my opinions very respectfully. I never engaged in name calling etc. I was a gentle person on that board. And where have I been whining on MAD about my 'why me' life? No where. I like my screen name. It sounds good and reminds me of Joseph Smith. He could have asked often, god, why me...why have I been chosen...why me?? And as my avatar shows, he stood firm.

And lets look at this board...I can probably put the whining label on many posters who whine about the MAD board. But do I? No.

Once you've stepped in a cow pie, you know to be a little more careful when you start walking through the pasture. And one gives wide berth to those stinky things. For me, why me is a stinky cow pie and I don't think I will step into one of those again. I can smell 'em a mile away. It takes a long time to clean that stuff out of your boots, you know.

And the avatar: doesn't it crack you up every time you think about the poster behind that stupid picture? It does me!

Gramps do you remember cowpie from MAD? I wonder what happened to her. She started out like a spitfire on the MAD board but began to mellow with time. I wonder what happened to cowpie??

Now gramps I know that I get under your skin. But come on...admit it...you like my posts..come on...admit it... :=)

It would be important for you to probably notice that it's more than just me whom you bother with your inane posts.

Like I said before, I imagine I could sit down and have a beer with you and talk about Marx and New York in its heyday. But you really are just a tiresome bore when it comes to Mormonism. Really!

I can't fathom for the life of me why you can't get up off that fence of yours and bump the old 33 a bit so that it gets past the scratch.

Don't you bore yourself? Day in and day out? Same old crap, again and again, until what .... you get 5000 posts?

Yippee! Because no matter how many posts you make, no one will ever take you seriously.

Change that damn avatar, while you are at it, why don't you? What's really funny is now there are two of you over on the madness board using the same avatar. Too funny! Thank god no one worships the guy!

p.s. edited to add: yeah, i remember cowpie. Why don't you take that moniker. That is a perfect one for you!

You missed some good posts. I had over 900 posts on the posmorg. And that is another reason why I was banned. I was hogging the board. But heck, if I had to respond to every post (as the GM said) the posts add up. I do not do why me posts. In fact, just the opposite.

However the postmorg has irked me. I was dupped by their mission statement. Not to meniton PMed about my future failure at MAD when I had only 10 posts on MAD at that time and how I was going to be miserable for the rest of my life. Not to mention a few other choice comments in the PMs.

Yeah, Gramps, I've complained about Why Me's avatar before, too. It makes my stomach turn!

Seriously, Why Me, if a discussion forum banned me, I'd say, "Screw 'em!" and move on - I certainly wouldn't spend months and months whining about it.

Oh, and you say you can't decide if you're a Catholic or a Mormon, right? You've said, if I remember correctly, that you sometimes attend mass. Do you take communion? Is the wine used in communion against the Word of Wisdom? I'm quite certain it's not Welch's grape juice. Just wondering...

This is what the critics find the most annoying about me. My positions. Yes, I do attend Mass. I like the Mass but avoid the wine but I do take communion. I also go to the priest for confession. I also work with the catholic sisters. Good people and very helpful in finding a spiritual balance. And the priests are great especially the Opus Dei priests.

However, Mormonism is still apart of me. I am not negative about it and can still attend meetings and participate in discussions. My catholicism has helped liven up the priesthood discussions when I attend. For example, last week when I took the catholic viewpoint on social justice and put it into SWK's take on the family. Of course they did not know that I took it from the catechism. And It was not anti LDS at all. I have no negative feelings about the LDS church, nor can I deny the Book of Mormon. But the catholic faith (my boyhood faith)has helped me, the sisters befriended me and the priests took an interest in me, not to mention the people that I have met.

I do defend the LDS from the gross generalizations on a catholic site that I post on. And yes, I would defend the catholic faith also. And have done so.

The postmos have begun their billboard campaign and have become more vocal. And because of this I started to speak out about their mission statement. I have also seen how the LDS press have been taken in by it, for example, desseret news. I have also experienced their wrath. Not at all the happy people on their billboard or on their homepage.

I am not a stickler for differences in dogmas, between the catholics and Mormons. Both faiths are a part of me and are valuable to me.

Does god exist? I have no idea at times. But I hope so. But that does not mean that I will allow two things that I value to be dirtied.

And this is what Jeff could not understand. Likewise the other postmo posters that were around when I was there two years ago.

OOps! I'm obviously not in the know. Thanks for the heads up. But I still maintain it fits why me to a tee.

Gramps you may find this hard to believe but my avatar was given to me....are you ready for this...are you sitting down.....get that strong drink ready...by Dr. Shades!!!

He hoisted it from my MAAD avatar. One day, I noticed it under my name. Of course, I liked it, no problem but I did not know how to do it myself nor would I have ever figured it out. I am no computer guru.

Thanks Shades for my avatar!! :=) Well, gramps, what da ya think now??

Well, I'll be tickled. When cowpie came to the MAAD board she was like a spitfire. I followed her around for a few posts like a japanese zero. She was fiesty. Eventually she mellowed out and became a delight.

Hey dumb a.., you could have asked that it be taken back down. You accepted it, you chose it. That's the way I see it. What about the one over on the madness board? Did Julianne do that for you?
