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

[Robert J Sakimano]

and, just like that, it's time for another page - an Ode to Guest - where we post his manifesto, the ManiGuesto - a completely rational, cogent piece where our old friend outlines the very fabric of his intellectual, religious and political soul, as determined by his commitment to church and the mainstream media.

Guest, we know you're reading and we respect your absolute need to stay away from the board. Your well-being is paramount. Please enjoy another page where we pay homage to you via 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?  

enjoy your Mio spring!

[Robert J Sakimano]

yesterday, Guest had a great day at church
his bible group discussed their love of forced birth
they also voiced support for the electric chair
decidedly not 'pro-life', but they don't care
they celebrate death row with vigor and mirth

[Robert J Sakimano]

it's "deep-fried Snickers" day at the diner
Guest is relaxing in his recliner
watching his christian hero's trial
"putrid orange" always makes him smile
fits right in with the lifetime whiner

[Robert J Sakimano]

there once was a poster named Guest
who approached message boardin' with zest
addicted to the network 'news'
Biden's election gave him the blues
he decided that leaving was best

[Robert J Sakimano]

Mio is a god-fearin' town rooted in christianity
their hero is one of 'grab 'em by the pussy' profanity
shootings, rapes, the death penalty, they cheer
if you're truly 'pro-life' don't go anywhere near
they get upset if you question their sanity

[Trapper Gus]

The spring in the North is soon arising
Goose knows there will be no compromising
Trump's witch hunt
Is no stunt
Soon he will be in housing subsidized

[Robert J Sakimano]

Guest's christian hero is an odd sort
he keeps falling asleep in criminal court
I thought it was Biden that was "sleepy"
the orange christian filth is creepy
I bet he doesn't even pay his child support

[sεяεηιτλ]

I don't know why because i haven't spent even 5 minutes trying to figure out what's going on in this thread, but this thread always bothers me when i see it pop up.

[Robert J Sakimano]

trust me - if you spent 30 seconds trying to figure out this thread, that would be an unfortunate use of your 30 seconds.

I'll sum it up: Guest got mad and left, Guest sent someone his manifesto upon leaving, someone posted it, a few of us imbeciles have spent an inordinate amount of time memorializing our friend's absence and wishing him well via 2nd grade poetry (apologies to 2nd graders) because I know Guest reads this thread and it's my way of saying 'hello' to my friend.

[Trapper Gus]

Tributes to Goose keep pouring in
A great legend here on the bin
Goose posted
Bob roasted
Goose left and now lives in deep sin

[Trapper Gus]

Out on Mission Point Wines are Great
Goose of course avoids his sad Fate
Mrs Goose
His caboose
here with friends God help him Kate

[Trapper Gus]

Up here near Mio its raining
The drops on his head are staining
Just like Trump
He needs a dump
So Goose in the outhouse straining

[Robert J Sakimano]

Resting comfortably in his recliner
just in from the Mio Diner
a cloud of cigarette smoke
his christian hero on trial is a joke
Guest continues his life as a whiner

[sεяεηιτλ]

Something with the thread title is just revolting to me I guess.

I'll show myself the door

[Robert J Sakimano]

John, Paul, George and Ringo
the Mio Baptist Church plays a lot of bingo
proceeds go to a 'free and fair election'
if they lose, they plan an insurrection
their yards decorated with a plastic pink flamingo

[Trapper Gus]

So Late at night Goose is still awake
Too much fried liver did he partake
Iron high
My oh my
Fridays at diner make tummy ache

[Robert J Sakimano]

it's time for a new poem
Guest.. I was lucky to know him
he loves his christian hero
his tolerance for dissent was zero
our admiration for Guest, we consistently show him

[Robert J Sakimano]

the Mio Diner has a haze of smoke
white folks eating to a laugh and a joke
looking forward to Sunday at church
it's their favorite place on god's Earth
while there, they whine about the 'woke'

[Trapper Gus]

In the north Goose loves his mom
He thinks she is really bomb
Her vote for Biben
So left him cryin
He takes her to the diner aplomb

[Trapper Gus]

In the north Goose loves his mom
He thinks she is really bomb
Her vote for Biben
So left him cryin
He takes her to the diner aplomb

[Robert J Sakimano]

there once was a poster named Guest
who attended Jesus-a-palooza Fest
they read many a-bible verse
a church play, they did rehearse
the patriots of Mio are blessed

[Robert J Sakimano]

Guest's christian hero is a convicted felon
his favorite waitress at the diner, is Chain-Smokin' Helen
it's a good idea not to support a rapist christian
but Guest loves him and his political positions
he'll forever buy what his hero is sellin'

[Robert J Sakimano]

the special today is butter-fried Butterfinger
the grease cloud above the diner is sure to linger
it's Guest's favorite place to go
through sun, rain, sleet or snow
Kid Rock is his favorite singer

[Trapper Gus]

As we barrel towards the election
Goose is pondering his selection
Trump is good
In his hood
That thought gives him an erection

[Trapper Gus]

Trump is now a convicted felon
At the media Goose is yelling
Twelve people
No steeple
Without God not right Goose is telling

[Robert J Sakimano]

jury verdicts don't really mean anything
in the church choir, Guest does sing
his christian hero made a bookkeeping error
34 felonies puts Guest in a terror
knowing decent people were right must really sting

[Trapper Gus]

In Mio the sun is out
Trump has lots of clout
Goose eats
Free treats
He ponders what life's about

[Trapper Gus]

Summer storms up north can be deadly
Goose keeps a beer cap on his headly
He takes a nip
Just a sip
Then snores on the porch until bedly

[Trapper Gus]

Northern Michigan soon will be baking
So Goose many naps long will be taking
He'll miss the news
Due to his snooze
Trump's poll numbers he will not be shaking

[Robert J Sakimano]

January 6th was a patriotic swarm
in Mio today, it will be warm
Guest will be reading the Lord's word
a background hum of the 'news' will be heard
possibly awaiting a thunderstorm

[Robert J Sakimano]

Guest's christian hero can now commit many a-crime
Miovian patriots say "it's about time"
rape, kidnap or kill
all for political thrill
the church will celebrate, bells will chime

[Robert J Sakimano]

Guest is suspicious of Biden
the old Sleepy Joe is a-hidin'
Project 2025
will keep the white babies alive
with his christian hero, Guest is a-ridin'

[Robert J Sakimano]

Guest's christian hero fell victim of a shooting
it was Biden's fault, the church goers are concluding
god protected their christian hero
their tolerance for disagreement is zero
the christian rapist and felon, they are saluting

[Robert J Sakimano]

there once was a poster named Guest
who lived life in Mio with zest
church, cigarettes and the diner
he watched the 'news' from his recliner
he decided that leaving the board was best

[Robert J Sakimano]

Guest had a great Sunday at church
it's his favorite place on Earth
he wants to keep little white babies alive
a big supporter of Project 2025
the diner serves Butterfinger-encrusted bacon-fried perch

[Robert J Sakimano]

white people populate the town of Mio
JD Vance is a fake hillbilly from Ohio
Guest is in his comfy recliner
he still is our favorite whiner
especially since Biden said "goodbye-o"

[PennSpartan]

enjoy your Mio spring!

Damn, I think I like that guy. So he got chased off too, huh! Interesting.

[Cameron]

Some people just don't have an appetite for being endlessly trolled. Not sure why...

[Trapper Gus]

Goose has a legacy that's growing
Penn and Cam he soon will be owing
Downvotes galore
What a whore
In Mio church steeples are glowing

Damn, I think I like that guy.  So he got chased off too, huh!  Interesting.

you would've loved him -  he got sad that I wouldn't stop making comments about his about the racist, bigoted, christian sexual predator, convicted rapist and convicted felon.

I told him when his christian hero was elected that it was going to be a long 4 years for his types. He made it about 2 years before he decided he couldn't take it anymore.

which is cool - I totally get and support someone deciding to take care of their mental health. It was easier for him to retreat into his Miovian bubble than acknowledge that there were people outside his town who think differently. That's why I honor my friend, Guest, with our thoughts and poetry. I know he's reading.

Hey Guest! Hope you're doing well.
