tOfficial Bob misses Goose thread aka Come Back Goose thread

[Robert J Sakimano]

Guest likes to stay safely in his house
he's outraged at books and Mickey Mouse
living in a state of perpetual rage
with the mainstream media, he loves to engage
his christian hero loves little girls from Laos

[Robert J Sakimano]

on Easter, Guest got to say "He Is Risen"
and that Hunter Biden belongs in prison
celebrating people of the christian faith
and proclaiming white people as the master race
watching the 'news' is Guest's favorite tradition

[Robert J Sakimano]

there once was a fella named Guest
whose patience you best not test
not afraid of the virus
a love of Billy Ray Cyrus
he decided that leaving was best

[Trapper Gus]

Inflation has struck at the Goose
His pockets are suddenly loose
If Trump were in charge
Goose knows he would barge
Into a much worse caboose

[Robert J Sakimano]

Guest is unknowingly beholden to the rich
all he did at the Swill was bitch
he's excited about the sell of Twitter
he loves the political media glitter
he falls victim to their christian sales pitch

[Trapper Gus]

The country has now nearly split
The crazies have one side of it.
Goose is alright
Not all uptight
White Christians will win in a bit

[Trapper Gus]

On tSwill today all is serene
Goose is at home with Ireene
Bob's not up north yet
as he as things to get
While Trapper is yet to be seen

[Robert J Sakimano]

the town of Mio is a bustling place
little white children and a potato sack race
a bucolic setting that is wholesome
Hunter Biden is so loathsome
more agony at tSwill, Guest just couldn't face

[Trapper Gus]

To Bob's goal I must be true
In every sweet verse that I do
Goose must be said
to put verse to bed
Thus keeping on track woo-who

[Robert J Sakimano]

we're about to start a new page
I hope Guest still isn't in a rage
a thread with 1,000 posts
is what his memory deserves the most
he deserves to be content as his age

[Robert J Sakimano]

time to bump our friend's manifesto.. the ManiGuesto.. a completely normal, rational, well-thought out and logical post from our favorite former poster who is spending quality time at home riveted to three of his favorite things: the mainstream media, his church and pie making endeavors.

while he could no longer stay with us, it's my hope that he has found some peace in his political bubble.

Hope you're doing okay, Guest - and that you're happy. Thanks for reading our homage to you.

Greetings my Swill friends.

lol, this is close in a couple ways but wildly askew in others. I get up and check my email, answer any important ones. Cook breakfast which always includes eggs unless the grandkids are here - then they usually request pancakes or waffles. Coffee sets my AFib off so I drink one cup a week, I've missed my morning pot badly for 10 years now. Then I read my 3 newspaper sites (News, Freep, MLive), various message boards and couple of news aggregators. After that there's some daily variation depending on season and plans.
The not even close parts: I've logged into Twitter once since April - to say thanks to Lynn Henning. He and I shared many lively debates over the years as old farm kids, baseball and outdoors nuts and across a liberal/conservative divide. Somehow we never called each other names and remain friends.
The BS part is BS on your part. You and 90%+ of the Swill are raging liberals that consider yourselves purveyors of facts as you swallow the Covington, Smollett and other bullshit news whole as you blithely call any site you disagree with "propaganda" - how's the collusion propaganda going? Because you have a huge majority on the Swill you mistake that as being a reflection of America as a whole. You ignore the fact that Trump won, and is favored to win again by the people that are most accurate - the books. You are NOT reflective of America, most are more conservative than you and more liberal than me. I'm aware of that, most of you aren't.
If you think I'm blinded take a few, step back and think about the political leanings of those that have been driven from or simply chose to leave the board. There's a pattern in how people with opposing viewpoints are treated here.
Also I did NOT come post political content on the Swill - if I was posting political content it was in the Bin. That's the double standard that irked me most. The board doesn't need to be that way if people choose to respect boundaries. One of my other message boards started as a Tigers board but now has every sport covered and a massively active political section - the crossover is virtually zero. Why? Because people keep things separate and in the rare times it's needed the mods actually enforce it. And honestly that place is just as wildly liberal as the Swill - I guess most conservatives have better things to do than message boarding. At the Swill none of the mods could/would see it because it all agreed with their worldview. So I left, life goes on, yours and mine.
I'm not pissed at anyone, I'm just unwilling to be randomly abused because my political views are different than most of you. I've had those same views since before many of you were born, Trump has nothing to do with it and I don't spend 85% of my life obsessing over the orange man as many of you seem to. And by that I mean getting fucking offended by a headline because it comes from a source you don't approve of.
The Swill is eventually doomed anyway, the 2 people with the keys to the place are rarely there and essentially don't give a flying fuck except to say it's "their" board. Maybe there's some hope that tRCMB will implode someday and he can cash in, hell if I know.
Since Martin mentioned he liked the Mio thread, Ellie's 12 Tables is in this story - I've been flogging this diner for a while on the Swill. They won the voting for the best diner in northern Michigan. The question is how will they fare in the final standings. (Owned and operated by 2 members of our local LGBT community as are 2 other local eateries, amazing for those of you that think everywhere outside your little bubble is bigoted especially in a county that voted 70% Trump)

For my friend Bobby Sak: A new sport he needs to consider - combining his love of biking and snow.

For my friend Wakie: Happy Birthday and the CitiDouble Cash is a great card, it's my go to.
In closing I'm not going to lie and say I don't miss the place but in the end the shit there just wasn't worth it to me. I can get my Spartan fix at tRCMB and my Tigers fix at Motown Sports so I'm good. Have fun and enjoy yourself,

Goose aka "Guest" ;-)

PS - how's that for book length?

there once was a poster named Guest
he got mad, you know the rest
he left in a hurry
causing us to worry
with his presence, we're no longer blessed

A nice KISS method poem... simple, to the point.

thanks. I'm sharpening my skills.

[Trapper Gus]

It is clear Bob truly misses Goose
Although he always hangs loose
Yet no reply
Wonder why
Is Goose hiding in a caboose

[Trapper Gus]

Consumer Confidence is up once again
we're waiting for the meltdown to begin
goose doesn't know
the mail is to slow
and he's still not posting on the Bin

[Robert J Sakimano]

at the White House Correspondents Dinner
jokes about his christian hero made Guest simmer
with anger and rage, it made him sad
everyone in Mio got really mad
white people's skin could not be thinner

[Trapper Gus]

With Roe v Wade on the clock
Goose plans to increase the flock
Once they are able
They'll be at his table
rape is no reason to stop

[Robert J Sakimano]

Guest is vocally 'pro-life'
be it rape of daughter or wife
oddly, he also supports government execution
his christian hero loves underage prostitution
he looks forward to back alley abortions with a knife

[Trapper Gus]

the burning of witches is fine
rape of your wife is sublime
no no to quicken
must let it thicken
for all the dead wives we pine

[Robert J Sakimano]

Guest is a baker of pies
he's also a believer of lies
he loves his christian hero
his tolerance for criticism is zero
the Constitution he does despise

[Robert J Sakimano]

few things mean more to Guest than religion
except keeping women in the kitchen
take them to church on Sunday
that is their designated fun day
at tSwill, Guest could not stop bitchin'

[Trapper Gus]

Michigan's eighty-degree heat is coming
In Mio air conditioning will be humming
kilowatts galore
fossil fuel no more
since wind will be generators strumming

[Robert J Sakimano]

Mio is a bustling town of people that are white
nary anything unsightly or evidence of blight
they hold hands 'neath the steeple
a warm collection of christian people
the thought of brown folks gives them great fright

[Trapper Gus]

A poem is a place to add feeling
While all in our lives may be reeling
the rule of law
is now a cat paw
for those whose probity we're not believing

[Trapper Gus]

Goose keeps women in their place
Abortion not theirs is his case
must carry the cells
for all of the hells
even if Goose only got to first base

[Trapper Gus]

We sit and we watch the world burn
Goose is all for Jesus having a turn
no more freedom
us that need-um
while the MSM is running the churn

[Robert J Sakimano]

a christian who is 'pro-life'
went and murdered his wife
he won the GOP primary
'cause murder ain't half as scary
as brown people causing racists strife

[Robert J Sakimano]

I'll never forget when Guest left tSwill
to him, our thoughts weren't such a thrill
comments on his christian hero
his tolerance of such was zero
I hope his life is more comfortable and still

[Robert J Sakimano]

Mio is very pro-Putin
they also like a good school shootin'
our friend, Guest, celebrates the Russia invasion
he's of the anti-democracy persuasion
for Russia, he is a-rootin'

[Trapper Gus]

Saturday is a day for playing
Not a day for make haying
goose doesn't mow
oh no, no, no, no
instead, he is plotting a slaying

[Robert J Sakimano]

Guest finally got a good mass shootin'
Republicans are big fans of Putin
10 Americans senselessly killed
the 'pro-life' christian right is thrilled
for mass killings, they are a-rootin'

[Robert J Sakimano]

Guest always looks forward to church
it's where he wears his MAGA merch
Mio men of good christian faith
upon them, their wives do wait
life outside the home, Mio women will never search

[Robert J Sakimano]

there once was a poster named Goose
who trusted the mainstream media 'truths'
I would point out his faults
he'd dance a verbal waltz
and go back to watching the news

[Robert J Sakimano]

the Mio Diner is where Guest and his friends collect
to discuss the 'pro-life' christians they hope to elect
they hold hands in the shadow of the steeple
saying solemn prayers to protect white people
if black folks dare vote, they will violently object

[Trapper Gus]

Bad weather up north is here
No power is warming Guest's beer
Yet he still drinks
Warm beer is no jinks
Is those darn liberals he does fear

[Trapper Gus]

In Mio the flowers are in bloom
Goose is hiding out in his room
Not happy is he
Folk are not free
To make freedoms go kaboom

[Trapper Gus]

The day after the big wind was blowing
The Goose was sure it was snowing
He reved up the sled
but found gravel instead
Once again in Trump he was knowing

[Trapper Gus]

Suicide in Mio is high
Too many guns is why
goose is okay
let us pray
we do not want to cry

Rural Suicide in MI

[Robert J Sakimano]

like the GOP, Guest loves to whine
it was the thing he did all the time
differing opinions proved not to be fun
so he took his guns and bible and off he did run
I sincerely hope he is doing fine
