Dick Whitman: Great thread starter or greatest thread starter?

He looks like Andre from The League.

 

Staunch support of child molesters is distasteful. This thread? Hell, I'm guessing Dick absolutely loves this thread.

 

The amazing thing about this thread in my opinion is that it is 3.5 days old, and DW still hasn't commented in it. That is some amazing self restraint.

 

It's like an old-timey political convention, where the man of the hour sends the rabble to sing his praises while he keeps a respectful distance.

 

OK. I'm going to spell this out for you, since you apparently think apples and oranges are the same things.

I found this thread distasteful because I've never seen a thread that was literally about a poster -- a still-living, breathing and regular poster, who, frankly, contributes a lot around here, that seemed so mean-spirited and yes, distasteful, that was started for no apparent reason besides the opportunity to pick on, goad, insult or embarrass him.

That's a far different thing from whatever I think, or ever attempted to express, regarding a famous family, and this thread can hardly be compared to that one, which, thanks to me and some other people, was actually a decent discussion of an important topic that touches way beyond that famous family.

If Dick "loves" this thread, well, then he's a lot more narcissistic than even anyone here imagines. And don't even try to argue that this thread was started because anybody thought DW would love it.

 

You spoke of distasteful things and I gave you an example. This thread is not distasteful at all and most of the comments about Dick were clearly meant in fun.

I'm not so sure about that last bit. I imagine Dick as being quite the narcissist.

 

Geez, this thread is not about me, yet I am starting to feel the butthurt.

 

This thread is an homage to Dick.

 

Whoops my finger slipped.

 

I misremembered, thought it was HOF poster. I'll go with great thread starter.
