  1. me being realistic about a qb you overrate = “hatred”. lol ok. and me mentioning quinn in this thread = ZOMFG freak out!!! even though a)he’s going to inevitably be brought up, just as last year’s o line is the current topic of discussion, and b)we’ve already had about a dozen different quinn related tangents and discussions in this thread throughout this season. you all only whine about it when i take part. y’all make mountains out of molehills and then whine about the mountains existing.
  2. the last clip featuring the lakers is all kinds of sexy.
  3. dart was (is) leagues ahead of QE as a qb, and he did not have the supporting cast that QE had. every game we lost the past two years was a close loss featuring subpar qb play. you put Dart at qb for us last year and we walk to the title.
  4. this is the unit we are talking about as being “bad” and “not good”. lunacy. it wasn’t our greatest ever o line, but it was a very good unit that was superior to both its runners and the passer it blocked for. ww returned a bunch of starters from a playoff team and we featured the best lineman in all of college football, a guy who swept the awards circuit, then was a top 10 pick, and is now kicking ass as a rookie on a very bad team in the nfl. it’s mind blowing that this many people are this eager to criticize last year’s o line as if they were an issue.
  5. i don’t agree with this. replace quinn with dart or cam ward and we win the title. we made it to the sec title and the playoffs last year with our o line play. they did more than enough to get us there. if we don’t have one of the most ineffectual and self sabotaging qbs in all of P5 football last year then we win the title. same with the year before. in fact especially the year before.
  6. “…and less like Pimp C.”
  7. it’s the truth. no amount of love or “check ins” will matter if/when a person truly becomes suicidal. if you don’t understand this then you don’t understand mental illness. you can’t stock up on love and check ins and then access it when that suicide demon comes calling. it doesn’t work that way.
  8. this is exactly what i’m talking about. i have explicitly said the exact opposite of this, repeatedly, and yet you keep making this same argument over and over and over, as if if that’s not the case. holy fuck man. stop it.
  9. how do you figure that pointing out your idiotic ideas somehow equals “self flagellation”? do you know what any words mean? wait, why am i asking that of the guy who posits that mentally ill people who kill themselves should just wait for their feelings to pass and then move on with life?
  10. the mere idea that checking in with your mentally ill loved ones is enough to stop someone from committing suicide is a false one. it’s simply not real. you can’t be by their side 24/7, and if that suicide demon comes calling, no amount of previous love, or “check ins” is going to matter. those are the facts. nobody said you shouldn’t still check in. nobody.
  11. i’d love to see the stats on lives saved by “check in on your friends y’all” tweets. it’s literally just this: for suicide. nobody has ever decided to pass up on killing themselves because somebody else tweeted “check in on your friends y’all.”
  12. where do you come up with this? you are living in a fairytale land where i’m “responding negatively” to you and disagreeing with you when ive literally pos repped your post and said to you, “i agree with everything you’re saying.” i have explicitly and repeatedly encouraged checking in with loved ones. you are just making up arguments out of thin air, and it’s a fucking beating.
  13. are you serious. this is what you’re defending as “an innocent, well intentioned comment”? a comment which you followed up with incessant shit talking and insults, and you think it’s *other* people who are being whiny? “oh poor me, i posted that mentally ill people should simply think it over and wait for the sads to pass before killing themselves and now people disagree with me, whaaaaa.” what a joke.
  14. i’m very sorry to hear that, but you illustrate the point very well. if that demon has a hold on you then there isn’t a lot that friends and family can do if/when it gets to that point.
  15. now who’s in here just wanting to argue? first of all, as far as the scope of this conversation goes, yes, it 100% is limited to people imminently about to kill themselves. i’m the one who started this conversation using those specific parameters. it’s literally the subject of the discussion. second, i cannot possibly make my main point any more clear: “checking in” is not an effective form of suicide prevention. i’d wager that the overwhelming majority of mentally ill people who’ve killed themselves in this country had people who checked in, if not full on vibrant social lives. they still killed themselves. it’s a lifelong demon of an illness that deserves so much more legitimate attention, discussion, and care than it gets, indescribably so. tweeting “check in with your people y’all” every time someone kills themselves does nothing. finally, the very first thing that i said to you was, “nobody is telling you to stop checking in on your kids”, and yet here you are still arguing that point as if i’m in here arguing otherwise. you made your ad hominem point a long time ago. nobody is arguing with it.
  16. you also said that i “literally know jack” about mental illness, which is the funniest thing i’ve read here in a long time.
  17. i made it pretty clear that i was talking about a person who is on the verge of suicide, not just any random mentally ill person going about their day. i then followed up in ensuing posts with multiple paragraphs further specifying my point. instead of quoting any of it or citing anything specific, you’re in here making vague allusions, posting with anger, and posting in bad faith. ironic that someone said it was me who was just looking for an argument. ^^^
