How quickly can you tell what this is?

Krw doesn't quite understand what the word means. He seem to think that an "endorsement" is a kind of benefit, whereas it literally means sign on the back (dorsum) of.

It could be an an oxymoron if I couldn't write, but this is a text-only forum, not that krw knows what "illiterate" means either.

I saw the smoke the announcement has been made, Win is the Pope from this day forward. Out of respect he shall be referred to as Pope Winfield.

Smoke on a text only user group?

Clearly a miracle.

And Mikek is his John the Baptist. Quite when Salome gets the head of Mikek isn't clear.

Out of respect to whom? Few Roman Catholics would find it a respectful salution, and Pope Francis might feel that his eminence was being dissed.

And the implication that Win had been elevated by the collective vote of a college of cardinals that would have to include Cursitor Doom, John Larkin, krw and Jim Thompson isn't saying anything particularly favourable about Win.

Clearly Catholics don't run the world. In Fairfax county, VA there is a road named Pope's Head road. Doesn't sound very Catholic to me.

It probably wasn't. When America was originally colonised, the colonists tended to be protestants, rather than Catholics, and none too fond of the Pope, or what they imagined he stood for.

Slowman speaking for all Catholics, even the Pope, is just too funny!

Pope is a family name there. The road is so named because it crosses Pope's Head Creek. It has nothing to do with pope in Rome.

Clearly, that is a compliment. Slowman shows, once again, that he has his head deep in his rectum. What's surprising is that anyone's shoulder would fit so easily but it is a big asshole.

I'm making a prediction about them, not speaking for any of them. My Catholic cousins nieces and nephews probably aren't a representative sample, but Australia is 25.3% Catholic, so I've got quite a few examples on which to base the prediction.

Krw is rather better at understanding what he wants words to mean than he is at reading what's actually being posted,

There's nothing funny about dementia. Be grateful that you haven't yet shown much sign of it.

Since the criteria for inclusion was more being funny peculiar than funny comical, it was.

Krw being funny peculiar again. What goes on inside krw's head is decidedly strange and definitely peculiar, but has very little to do with what's going on in the external world (where the rest of us live).

He doesn't have enough sense, to have a sense of humor.

Mike Terrell has a tin ear when it comes to humour. He wouldn't post quite so any unintentionally funny things if he had a better grasp of the subject.

The dementia thing came out of the blue, are you telling us you are having some health concerns? I agree dementia is not funny, although on another forum I see caregivers using humor to help them cope with their situation. Mikek

Cursitor Doom and krw definitely do seem to be slipping into dementia. I'm inclined to blame Jim-out-of-touch-with-reality-Thompson's spectacular igno rance of the real world on childhood cultural deprivation, rather than anyt hing extra going on at the moment, but thinking that Trump is anything othe r than a plausible creep is a bad sign.

The "dementia thing" didn't come out of the blue, even if you hadn't notice d earlier references to it in comments about Cursitor Doom and krw.

As far as I know, dementia isn't one of my current health problems - nobody has asked me who the current prime minster is, or what day of the week it is, which is the kind of question my mother had to deal with when my younge st brother - the medico - enrolled her in a prospective study of dementia i n the elderly. It did pick up her incipient dementia about 18 months before she stopped being able to get the e-mail program on her computer to work f or her.

I don't think your qualified to determine onset of dementia, and it certainly can't be done using internet posts.

rather than anything extra going on at the moment, but thinking that Trump is anything other than a plausible creep is a bad sign.

Using politics as a sign especially when your bias is Huuge, has nothing to do with dementia. Feel free to include me in any diagnoses you decide on, I'm a Trump fan. And I'm looking forward to a tax cut and more growth in the economy from the corporate cut. You can say it won't happen, but you need to wait a few years to see. Mikek

I'm inclined to blame Jim-out-of-touch-with-reality-Thompson's spectacular ignorance of the real world on childhood cultural deprivation,

I'm not qualified to give a definitive diagnosis, and such a diagnosis woul d be based on a lot more than use-group posts. Where the use-group posts re flect obviously inadequate cognition one is at liberty to speculate about w hat might be the source of the sloppy thinking.

That's your opinion. When the defects of the elected official were obvious enough that three million more people voted against him than voted for him (albeit in the wrong states) the issue is less than clear-cut.

That kind of tax cut didn't deliver much economic growth when Reagan and Du bbya implemented them and did drive the US budget further into deficit in t he process.

It's good for Trump and his family, and that limited group in his kind of s ituation, but the kinds of cuts in the already inadequate US government spe nding that are going to be required to cover the loss of tax income aren't going to be good for the country as a whole (which it isn't).

Not really. Reagan and Dubbya both courted their supporters with the same k ind of gift, and it didn't do much beyond making the rich richer at everybo dy else's expense.
