Re: tOfficial Bob misses Goose thread aka Come Back Goose thread

[Trapper Gus]

As the court takes us back to the past
Goose is on all the women in the cast
barefoot at home
not on the phone
and all are pregnant and aghast

[Robert J Sakimano]

our friend Guest is watching the 'news'
3.6% unemployment gives him the blues
gas prices are dropping
more people are out shopping
he says "honey, would you please pass me the booze"

This is one of Bob's best
Guest's mind will never rest
Bob loves him so
He never will know
What belief Bob might next test

[Robert J Sakimano]

'inflation' is making Guest sad
the price of Cheez-Whiz makes him mad
cigarettes, pork rinds and processed meats
he can't afford his favorite treats
the news says it's the worst times we've ever had

[Trapper Gus]

there once was a vote done in Mio
whether to just move all to Clio
nighty nine to nil
votes on the bill
and they stayed up north in Mio

[Robert J Sakimano]

Guest was warned it would be a long 4 years
criticism of his christian hero left him in tears
deciding it was best to leave
all alone, in silence to grieve
collecting MAGA souvenirs

[Robert J Sakimano]

Ethel works at the Mio Diner
a chronic cough that is not at all minor
47 years of smoking cigarettes
ask her, she has zero regrets
like Guest, she enjoys her comfy recliner

[Robert J Sakimano]

Ethel and Guest smoke in the alley
disappointed in the Election Day tally
they bemoan the state of the world
tear up as the American flag is unfurled
they bum a smoke from their friend, Sally

[Robert J Sakimano]

Sally only has 8 or 9 teeth
she has a heckuva time eating roast beef
Guest and Ethel cut it up real small
the folks of Mio have it all
rooted in their christian belief

[Trapper Gus]

In Mio the fish they are frying
On Friday the dinners are buying
Not allowed meat
not even Pete
For Trump it is very trying

[Robert J Sakimano]

and just like that, sports fans, we have a new page dedicated to the thread where we honor our old friend, Guest, and the joy-filled life of the Greater Mio Metropolitan Area.

as is tradition,  now is when we promote Guest's manifesto.. the ManiGuesto. The completely rational and logical ramblings of our favorite Miovian.

Guest, we know you're reading.. hope you're having a good summer. Hope you're able to get away from the mainstream media and get outside.

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?      

[Trapper Gus]

Guest wrote a screed to the Swill
In it he totaled his bin bill
his warning
eggs in the morning
makes sense as we look at the till

[Robert J Sakimano]

Jerry claims his usual place in the corner booth
to the Mio Diner patrons, he's a voice of truth
thoughts on a stolen election
Antifa was behind the violent insurrection
his fifth wife is named Ruth

[Robert J Sakimano]

if you wanna know today's special just ask Ruth
she is saving up for a golden tooth
she's married to Jerry
thinks black people are scary
quit school when she was still a youth

[Robert J Sakimano]

today's special is twice-fried chicken
Ruth has been slaving away in the kitchen
local men stop by to eat
christian fellowship can't be beat
about Commie libruls, they're always bitchin'

[GRR Spartan]

today's special is twice-fried chicken
Ruth has been slaving away in the kitchen

christian fellowship can't be beat
about Commie libruls, they're always bitchin'

While us conservatives keep on schtickin'

[Robert J Sakimano]

there once was a poster named Guest
who lived his life with zest
he loved the mainstream media
read a lot on Wikipedia
the people of Mio are blessed

[Robert J Sakimano]

I miss my friend, Guest-o
but I still have his epic manifesto
it outlines what he does believe
I'm saddened that he decided to leave
I hope he can get some rest-o

[Robert J Sakimano]

there once was a guy named Goose
to the insurrection, they brought a noose
they consider themselves 'pro-life'
a widow was soon to be his wife
they really should watch less news

[Trapper Gus]

Trapper is Up North at the forty fifth
Thinking of Bob, Guest and their tiff
The weather is fine
For drinking wine
The Trump flags are sticking out stiff

[Trapper Gus]

In Grayling the Army will gather
$30 Million to be spent, oh rather
Mio gets some
Goose will come
No worry about government lather

[Robert J Sakimano]

a guy should never get married to a guy-o
that is what they believe in Mio
it would make the lord Jesus very sad
his rules on who to love are iron clad
you would go to a lake of fire and fry-o

[Robert J Sakimano]

Guest is riveted to the midterms
his preferred fishing bait is earthworms
he has strong faith in god
he owns more than one fishing rod
the idea of gay folks gives him the squirms

[Trapper Gus]

Goose voted for Trumpers all night
Strongly supporting all their right
now women are mad
at Goose and the lad
Thus he is losing the fight

[Robert J Sakimano]

Mio christians enjoy deep-fried chicken
a woman's place is in the kitchen
into the alley for a quick smoke break
then it's time for a slice of cake
the christian men return to keep bitchin'

[Robert J Sakimano]

the Biden economy added 528,000 jobs
if you tell Guest this, you will hear loud sobs
Biden had done great things for the country
the patriotic outrage was quite perfunctory
they prefer a christian who rapes, steals and robs

[Trapper Gus]

As Mio reaps in bucks from the guard
they hide when the TeeVee shows Picard
Goose is cooked
No fight to be booked
and his dinner is likely to be lard

[Robert J Sakimano]

there once was an FBI raid
at the house where Epstein stayed
little girls provided them excitement
decent folks await an indictment
the MAGA christian folks are quite afraid

[Trapper Gus]

Gas prices keep on dropping
Food prices keep on popping
Goose is sad
No steak had
But now to gaylord he's hopping

[DWags]

Trump is a piece of shit
This doesn't rhyme
I don't care
Trump is a scum bag.

[Trapper Gus]

Trump is a piece of shit
Even mom goose gets it
Doesn't sit on a shelf
Don flushes himself
Vlad orders via his kit

[Robert J Sakimano]

Guest's christian hero's house was raided
to win the election in 2016, he was Russian-aided
his christian hero loves little girls
either with straight hair or curls
Mio is the greatest place god created

[Robert J Sakimano]

I just realized that our thread honoring Guest has had to start a whole new collection of pages.

I hope he's beaming with pride as he reads it from the comfort of a cozy recliner, through the smoky air of a living room dimly lit by his favorite mainstream media show.

[Robert J Sakimano]

there once was a guy named Guest
who experienced emotional distress
his hero, we could criticize
it brought tears to his eyes
the people of Mio are blessed

[Robert J Sakimano]

Mio christians are big fans of Putin
for an end to democracy, they are a-rootin'
as summer comes to a close
they're very excited, lord knows
almost time for another school shootin'

[Robert J Sakimano]

Guest thinks his christian hero is mighty fine
about everything, they both will whine
being the victim is what they do
making up 'facts' they think are true
Sunday at church is their time to shine

[Trapper Gus]

I just realized that our thread honoring Guest has had to start a whole new collection of pages.

About twenty five pages are max
After that we all can just relax
Goose is a winner
Fried cheese is dinner
Soon he gets another Trump fax

[NigelUno]

Come back Goose.

[Robert J Sakimano]

Trump is a piece of shit
This doesn't rhyme
I don't care
Trump is a scum bag.

watch out.. you're gonna make them mad.

[Robert J Sakimano]

you know who hate the IRS?
our christian Miovian friend, Guest
people shouldn't have anything to hide
unless, of course, they may have lied
it puts their christian faith to the test
