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

[Trapper Gus]

In Mio Goose is so lightly sleeping
No political watch is he keeping
Trump is his man
He knows he can
Beat Bradon while his golf cart is beeping

[Robert J Sakimano]

and just like that, we're back to another page paying homage to our favorite republican/libertarian who just had too much message boardin' for his liking and had to retire himself to the Mio Diner and comfy recliner.

here's to our friend, Guest - who I know is reading. We miss you, hope you're doing well. We hope you're enjoying the early part of fall and, remember, take time away from the TV and mainstream media outlets to enjoy the great outdoors. There's a lot of life out there, my friend.

in honor of our friend, as is customary, we raise his manifesto - the ManiGuesto - to the top of the page and remember him fondly in prose and poetry.

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?

[Robert J Sakimano]

as we start another message board page
our friend Guest had to disengage
he holds close to his bibles
shouts obscenities at political rivals
it's my hope he's not filled with rage

[Robert J Sakimano]

The christians laugh at Paul Pelosi
they did the same to a reporter with cerebral palsy
Pelosi had his skull cracked with a hammer
they also mock Biden because he has a stammer
their immorality, we all see

[steveschneider]

Hey Bob, I think I found the ‘Mio’ of the East coast. Was rolling though rural Pennsylvania and saw eight flag polls that had alternating Trump flags and confederate flags. It was pretty sad and pathetic and reminder that America is a ________ country.

yeah, I'm not sure where the anger/resentment/racism/bigotry/hatred comes from. A lot of broken people in the United States and the political class and mainstream media sure know how to tap into that anger/resentment/racism/bigotry/hatred for profit.

A large part of me does feel bad for them. So unfortunate to go through life like that.

[Robert J Sakimano]

Guest is hopefully enjoying fall
the Biden Administration is building the wall
they protect us from the brown people
but the scary folks are under the steeple
they consider themselves "pro-life", if you recall

[Robert J Sakimano]

today's special at the Mio Diner is as good as it gets
butter-fried Marlboro cigarettes
they come out greasy and smokey
the christian patriots go out back for a little toke-y
you wouldn't believe their medical debts

[Robert J Sakimano]

Guest is enjoying a Miovian fall
he's now outraged, though, that Biden is building the wall
he's still very scared of brown people
he can't have them 'neath the Mio church steeple
he's a political ideologue, that is all

[Robert J Sakimano]

the GOP is excited about a religious war
it's what they've been preparing their whole life for
guns, bibles and freedom-screechers
threatening our public school teachers
an uneducated electorate, they prefer nothing more

[Robert J Sakimano]

it's Tuesday morning in Mio
about 200 miles north of Ohio
it's citizens are patriotic and christian
getting rid of brown people, their mission
they're as American as apple pie-o

[Trapper Gus]

Out in Seattle it is raining
Goose out here would be his pants staining
Trump is indicated
Goose not excited
Indeed all of his brain is straining

[Robert J Sakimano]

Guest's christian hero keeps violating his gag order
meanwhile, scary brown people are walking across the border
for his christian hero, Guest keeps praying
as little white children in Mio keep playing
Guest is my favorite republican/libertarian supporter

[Trapper Gus]

A Christian denier is the Speaker
His wife certainly couldn't be meeker
Down or your knees
Suck on me please
She does it though he is a squeaker

[Robert J Sakimano]

there once was a poster named Guest
who lived in his Miovian nest
surrounded with christian friends
long days with TV news, he spends
opposing views make him quite distressed

[Robert J Sakimano]

there once was a poster named Guest
who left because he needed rest
watching news from his cozy recliner
I wonder if he's still a whiner
the christians in Mio are quite blessed

[Trapper Gus]

Goose's feelings must really be toasted
As in New York Trump's business is roasted
Fraud the judge ruled
How much did he fooled
Poor Goose can no long his hero be boosted

[Robert J Sakimano]

what's today's special at the Mio Diner?
our friend, Guest, wonders from his cozy recliner
deep-fried Snickers sounds real good
he calls Ethel to ask if they would
she was busy knitting a shower curtain liner

[Robert J Sakimano]

there once was a poster named Guest
whose blood pressure was put to the test
every time he would engage
he would suddenly be filled with rage
he decided that leaving was best

[Robert J Sakimano]

Guest enjoys his cigarette
as close to heaven as he can get
is watching his cable news shows
as the smoldering cigarette smoke blows
marinating in anger, he begins to sweat

[Robert J Sakimano]

Guest is planning a big Thanksgiving
rage-watching cable news while eating is his preferred way of living
breakfast, lunch and hearty dinners
while screeching about message board sinners
we miss you, Guest, and love reminiscing

[Trapper Gus]

As Turkey Day gets very near
For Goose at least one thing is clear
Riden with Biden
Keeps him hiden
And he's still crying in his beer

[Robert J Sakimano]

two days 'til Guest goes to church
the house of worship is his favorite place on Earth
his christian hero brags about raping women
he's a big fan of felonies and religion
females have limited worth

[Trapper Gus]

Goose wants the Donald to lie to him
About how the money flows to the brim
Dictatorship comes
Rum a dumb dumbs
Only the few will get to the rim

[Robert J Sakimano]

It's Guest's favorite holiday season
and his good friend, jesus, is the reason
still whining about a stolen election
but cheers a deadly insurrection
he also has no problem with treason

[Trapper Gus]

Republicans practice performance art
Goose laughs so hard it makes him fart
Democracy loosing
What Goose is choosing
Even Ethal knows that's not so smart

[DWags]

Republicans looking for impeachment
They didn’t like their orange gods treatment
Evidence they lack
Doesn’t matter they’re all hacks
The fools who elect them still will keep them.

I'm sure our friend Guest appreciates your poetic contribution to his thread.

[Trapper Gus]

Throughout the land it is Christmas
Republicans in Congress can't miss
Holiday at home
Far from the phone
They left business undone on the list

[tGreenWay]

Sung to the tune “Where, oh where?” from the popular 1970s tv show Hee Haw:


You shared some thoughts,
and Swillers responded.
You didn’t like
what we had to say.

You huffed and you puffed
And you went back to Mio
Now you refuse to
Come out and play.

Where oh where
Is Guest tonight?
Why did he leave us here all alone?
We searched the world over cuz
We thought it was Swill love
But you found another and
Pfft you wuz gone.

11 pages to a former poster is impressive.
He should add this to his list of things to put in his eventual obituary.

I will never shy away from my public appreciation of Guest and it makes me smile to know that he's reading this digital testament of love and poetic admiration that all started with his departing manifesto - the ManiGuesto.

[Robert J Sakimano]

there once was a guy named Guest-o
who penned a departing manifesto
filled with ranting and raving
unaware of the future he was paving
AvgMSUJoe is quite impressed-o

[NigelUno]

11 pages to a former poster is impressive.

Mio is heaven.

this.

Some people were born in Mio. The rest of us spend our lives just trying to get there.

[Robert J Sakimano]

Guest is ready to celebrate his savior's birth
spending time in his favorite place on Earth
in the wooden pews of his Mio church
made of oak, maple, ash and birch
with humility, he celebrates his soul's worth

[Trapper Gus]

Now that Trump has been branded a traitor
Goose's feelings have become very sore
He sits in the diner
Bitching at things minor
While Fox blares about liberals with gore

[Robert J Sakimano]

Guest's hope for the New Year
is filled with christian prayer and fear
from scary brown people they're hidin'
America cannot re-elect Biden
back to their christian rapist, they must steer

[Trapper Gus]

For Goose another year passes
It was full of liberal asses
Twelve o'clock struck
He better duck
For next will be liberal classes

[Robert J Sakimano]

it is almost 2024
Guest will ring it in with the lord
collecting with his friends from church
it's his favorite place on god's earth
with is christian friends, he never gets bored
