that video is hilarious and Joe Cocker is dreadfully faded-looking. i nice reminder of the effects that mixing heroin and acid can have on the speech centers in the brain.

Woodstock?
108 claims to have been there.
Excuse me, you were saying?

I was at Woodstock; it’s a fact, not a claim, so rbb is wrong about me. I don’t know any position he has taken on Woodstock, so am unable to say whether he is right about it. He would have to take a position first, then back it up with a logical and factual argument. Otherwise, he would simply be blowing smoke.(that’s a joke, son)

He was there alright. Making sure no hippies or long-hairs dared to have fun… or smoke cigarettes.
Ken,
Oh my.
There you are, you and your fellow leftards, who either never grew up (and thus wallow still in the mud and filth of a concert long since over), or who were too young to have been there, and overcompensate on their perceived shortcoming.
Going through life stupid, stoned, and stuck on 1968.

Ah, my smoke-belching dragon, “Is this just more grist for your personal attack mill?”, is not a “simple” question… it’s an accusation disguised as a question.

First, I’m not a liberal. I’m a card-carrying Republican, although I think the party is only slightly better than the Democrats. I think Matt Stone said it best, “I hate conservatives, but I REALLY fucking hate liberals.” Secondly, if growing up means that you lose your sense of humor, then count me out. Just because I believe in free markets and small government doesn’t mean I don’t know how to have fun.
...is not a “simple” question… it’s an accusation disguised as a question.
Paranoia? Yes, pp, I’m out to get you by asking you to explain your motives. /sarcasm
If your motives are good and honest, you have nothing to fear by revealing them.
Actually, pp, I owe you and the other personal attackers here a big apology. I was wrong to expect, even demand, that you make valid arguments. After trying very hard to elevate your level of discussion, I confess to have failed completely. It was wrong of me to expect any of you to do something that you are obviously unable to do, and will no longer expect anything from you other than that which you normally provide. I might disagree with your unsupported opinions, and will disagree at your level, the level of unsupported opinion. I’m wasting my time and energy by doing anything more.
If any of you ever make a valid argument, I will reply at that level.

Thanks! I knew someone with a sense of humor, such as yourself, would appreciate it. I’m glad to see you can take a joke.
Ken,
The only thing that approaches the idiocy of being stuck on stoned and stupid in 1968 is giving the appearance of being stuck on stoned and stupid in 1968.

Yeah shame on them! How dare they come into a thread about a parody on Joe Cocker’s Woodstock performance and not have a valid argument with supporting evidence prepared!
If any of you ever make a valid argument, I will reply at that level.
I’ll let you in on a little secret: No one here really cares if you reply to them. When you offer a valid argument rather than personal attack and unsupported opinion, then we will debate you at that level. Until then, we’re just wasting our time.

Hello and good morning beloved Rodney.
The only thing that approaches the idiocy of being stuck on stoned and stupid in 1968 is giving the appearance of being stuck on stoned and stupid in 1968.
That’s nice. What’s your point? Did I give you any indication that I am “stuck on stoned and stupid in 1968” or gave the “appearance” that I am?
r108:

Hahaha! Pomposity on a MASSIVE scale! Very, very good.

I second the motion.
Ken,
Now, that is FUNNY. I’m still laughing at that picture of robert108.
Ken. The cop/R108 is beating those people because they had no logical and/or factual argument.
Heh! heh! funny.

If any of you ignoramuses knew anything at all about Woodstock, you would know that there was not only no police brutality there, but that there was very little police presence there at all.
More bullshit from the bullshitters. No surprise.
My mistake in revealing any personal information to those who can only attack.

Ken: As I have already explained, there was no police violence at Woodstock. I’m not sure why making that smear seems funny to you, but then, there’s no accounting for taste.
BTW, I was not a policeman there. The only cops in the vicinity were local Bethel, NY cops, and they were mostly in the town itself(to protect the locals) and on the perimeter. I am a Californian.

I can’t believe I need to explain this joke but here goes:
I, as well as my fellow “ignoramuses”, are aware that there wasn’t a strong police presence at Woodstock, nor is there evidence of any police brutality. The point of the joke is that none of us here can picture you going to a youth music festival, a haven for liberal ideas and behaviors. The only reason we’d imagine you go is to crack some hippie skulls.
r108
how was the party? the naked women, the sinful debauchery, the drugs! i bet there was a few evolutionists in that crowd - naked anthropologist babes on acid! bitchin’.
and that kid playing drums for Santana was quite a site. i used to have a VHS of that show and the drum solo was worn out from being rewound and rewatched.
did you go to Altamont?

Santana’s timbale player was Sheila E’s father, btw.
did you go to Altamont?
No. I was driving down the 101 on the other side of the Bay, and the energy looked pretty dark. As it turned out, I was right. Woodstock was a one-time phenomenon.

Once again I ask: What is the “funny” part? I guess it never occurred to you that I speak from experience, having actually done most of the stuff you and the rest of the ignoramuses only fantasize about.
When I say drugs are bad, I’m speaking from personal knowledge. BTW, your delusions about the Sixties are quite common among those who weren’t there. Woodstock was actually the best musicians of the day, playing for a very appreciative audience. You have been deceived by a movie. You might try talking to the actual people, instead of drinking the Hollywood KoolAid. The radical lefties were regarded by most of us as a fringe nut group; we were just out to have a good time. The radical lefties are still a fringe nut group, btw; they just have better publicity.

I’d explain it to you, but you still wouldn’t find it funny. Some people just weren’t born with a sense of humor.
I guess it never occurred to you that I speak from experience, having actually done most of the stuff you and the rest of the ignoramuses only fantasize about.
What stuff have you done that I fantasize about? Have you been reading my diary again? If you were referring to Woodstock, I don’t care that I was never there. I’ve been to plenty of festivals and have had my share of live music.
BTW, your delusions about the Sixties are quite common among those who weren’t there. Woodstock was actually the best musicians of the day, playing for a very appreciative audience.
What delusions?

So the truth comes out! R108 wasn’t there to beat hippies, he was the Pusher Man!
I’d explain it to you, but you still wouldn’t find it funny. Some people just weren’t born with a sense of humor.
Give it a try. Your continuing attempts to attack me personally on the basis of some personal information I have given is noted. Your lie about your attacks being some form of humor is also noted.
So the truth comes out! R108 wasn’t there to beat hippies, he was the Pusher Man!
Do you realize how self-contradictory you are, in attempting to sell your lies about me? First, you mischaracterize Woodstock as having police violence, falsely describe me as a “cop”, and now that you have been refuted on that, you accuse me of being a drug dealer.
At that time, I was in the music business, moron.
Woodstock is a unique event, so your alleged experience at “music festivals” is irrelevant.
You have yet to make a true statement, either about me or about Woodstock.
Calling you an ignoramus was giving you the benefit of the doubt.

Ken: I just “got” it! Please forgive my slowness. You regard lying personal attacks as “funny”.
I guess it’s one of your defense mechanisms. It probably helps you with your feelings of inadequacy.
See, I can make “jokes” as well!
"Give the lefties a pile of money, and they’ll spend it buying votes.” - Rush Limbaugh on the “bailout”.
One more inconvenient fact for you, ignoramus: There were no “pushers” at Woodstock; everything was free.
You really don’t know anything, but try to deceive us into thinking that you do. Pathetic.

It wasn’t meant to be an attack, just a joke. If someone did a similar parody of me, I’d find it amusing. Sorry that you don’t.
Your lie about your attacks being some form of humor is also noted.
So now I’m a liar? Can read my mind and tell that my intention was to attack you and not make a joke? You throw around that liar term quite a bit, and often incorrectly I might add. I’m beginning to think that you don’t really understand the definition of lying.
Do you realize how self-contradictory you are, in attempting to sell your lies about me? First, you mischaracterize Woodstock as having police violence, falsely describe me as a “cop”, and now that you have been refuted on that, you accuse me of being a drug dealer.
Can anyone really be this dense? Of course there wasn’t police violence at Woodstock! I can’t be refuted because I never claimed there was police brutality. The point of the joke was that the only way I cold envision you going to Woodstock is to beat hippies. The fact that the picture is a silhouette of a police officer is purely coincidental. If I could have found an “r108 silhouette” beating someone, I would have used that instead.
And of course I don’t actually believe you were a drug dealer. It is the exact opposite of what someone would expect. let me explain two devices used in humor:
The first is using something grounded in truth and reality, and then taking it to an extreme. Here’s the premise I started with:
R108 has made numerous comments disparaging liberals, condemning drug-use, and illustrating his distaste for hippies. It is well documented that Woodstock contained wide-spread drug use and had a large number of attending hippies and liberals. Therefore, R108 and Woodstock seem incompatible. Thus, R108 beating hippies is an extreme based on the true premises that he a) dislikes hippies and drug use and b) attended Woodstock.
The second is taking a true premise and turning it around 180 degrees to illustrate the absurdity of the scenario:
R108 has made many anti-drug statements and has condemned both drug users and drug dealers. Thus, R108 is/was not a drug dealer. The absurdity of suggesting that R108 actually sold drugs is what is humorous.
Woodstock is a unique event, so your alleged experience at “music festivals” is irrelevant.
How is it irrelevant? You implied that I was somehow jealous of your “alleged” attendance of Woodstock. I replied that I was not since I’ve been to other music festivals/concerts and have experienced similar events. I have no need to envy anyone for attending Woodstock.
One more inconvenient fact for you, ignoramus: There were no “pushers” at Woodstock; everything was free.
You really don’t know anything, but try to deceive us into thinking that you do. Pathetic.
Well, countless other attendees would disagree with you. There is plenty of testimony that people sold drugs at Woodstock. I’ve even heard stories of it first hand. To believe that every drug done at Woodstock was free is pretty naive. Show me proof that no one sold drugs at Woodstock. Because a quick google search suggests that you’re wrong.
At that time, I was in the music business, moron.
That’s believable. But most of the time the truth isn’t funny.
It wouldn’t have been very funny if I had started out by saying:
“He was there alright. He was on business for a music company:”
So now I’m a liar? Can read my mind and tell that my intention was toattack you and not make a joke?
You said two things about me that were untrue. That’s a lying.
That’s believable. But most of the time the truth isn’t funny. That’s why you had to concoct lies: to be “funny”.
It wouldn’t have been very funny if I had started out by saying:“He was there alright. He was on business for a music company:” Another lie; I never said I worked for a music company, and I didn’t.
Your mean-spirited attempt to extract “humor” out of smearing someone else by telling untruths about them is despicable, and is the opposite of “funny”.
Wait until someone does this to you.
BTW, your picture is a lie, as well, just like the two previous ones.
You seem to have a real problem telling the truth.
"Give the lefties a pile of money, and they’ll spend it buying votes.” - Rush Limbaugh on the “bailout”.
You’re very concerned with the truth, bob, and that’s commendable.
So allow me to tell everyone the truth that you still haven’t accepted my challenge.
Ken, usually describing what makes something funny sucks all the funny right out of it, but you managed to make your explanation even funnier than the joke. Bravo.
You said two things about me that were untrue. That’s a lying.
Yes, it is. But you did not call me a liar in reference to those statments. You called me a liar for saying my comments were meant as a joke. Your own words:
Your lie about your attacks being some form of humor is also noted.
I find my statements humorous. As it turned out, so did others. My intention was to make a joke, not to attack you. But apparently you’re a mind reader and can tell that my intention was to viciously attack you.
Another lie; I never said I worked for a music company, and I didn’t.
My bad. You said you were in the music business and I took that to imply that you worked for a company that had some relation to the music industry.
BTW, your picture is a lie, as well, just like the two previous ones.
Oh you caught me. And here I had everyone believing that that picture was actually of you.
Your mean-spirited attempt to extract “humor” out of smearing someone else by telling untruths about them is despicable, and is the opposite of “funny”.
Get real! A smear would imply that I was deliberately attempting to make people believe something about you that was untrue. My jokes were so off the wall that no rational human being with any sort of reading comprehension could believe that I was implying that you were actually at Woodstock beating people and/or selling drugs. It was quite obvious to everyone but you that I was making a joke and not attempting a “smear job”.
You need to lighten up.
Another lie; I never said I worked for a music company, and I didn’t.
My bad. You said you were in the music business and I took that to imply that you worked for a company that had some relation to the music industry.
He was a roadie for Metallica. Speed of Sound tour. Bunch of assholes.
My bad. You said you were in the music business and I took that to imply that you worked for a company that had some relation to the music industry.
First: You made a specific declarative statement, which was false; Second: I didn’t “imply” anything; I made a declarative statement that was true.
“dannyboy” continues the lying. As far as Metallica being a “bunch of assholes”; I’m sure dannyboy has direct experience of that. Birds of a feather.
Get real! A smear would imply that I was deliberately attempting to make people believe something about you that was untrue.
That’s exactly what you did, both with your words and your pictures. You made the statement that the picture of a cop with the upraised baton was me, and you implied that the other two pictures were pictures of me, as well.
My intention was to make a joke, not to attack you.
I guess you got some consequences that ought to inform you how mistaken your “intention” was, then.
