For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.
Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

Originally posted by cowboy View PostJust a quick word here. I didn't mind Lingo. I didn't look forward to his posts or anything, but I didn't mind him. He was certainly more right-leaning in politics and religion than many on this board, and many disliked him because he was less than tactful in his approach.
However, I think his unpopularity had nothing to do with his ban. I have never seen anyone say the things he said today without being disciplined. That he was a repeat offender forced the EC to make the suspension permanent. The mods have a tough job, and I appreciate the work they do to make this site enjoyable.Dyslexics are teople poo...

1. I don't care what people here think of me
2. Life/Rule enforcement isn't fair
3. In and Out Burgers/Five Guys Burgers
4. I don't like Max Hall
I am somewhat psychic and my inner spirits are telling me that the probabilities are high that JohnnyLingo's swan song post contained one of the topics mentioned above.Fitter. Happier. More Productive.

I'm astounded by how much Lingo got underneath the skin of so many on this board. Lingo is a rank amateur compared to a lot of posters in terms of how bombastic and antagonistic they could be.
This isn't a defense of Lingo, just amusement at what I view to be a pretty significant collective overreaction.

Of course there are those who don't think they have to rely on intellect because they have an ongoing converesation with God or at the very least go read the Ensign and conference talks. This gives them the ability to tell others what they should think, because after all it is how God thinks.
Edit: I tried, no one bit. I guess no thin skin folks are here.Last edited by byu71; 01-14-2010, 12:26 PM.

All you have to do is invite me to play golf when I come to Utah (if the tee time is on a Sunday afternoon so much the better) and send me a card with 5 bucks in it for my birthday.

You are more proof the thin skin crowd doesn't reside here. Oh and I have actually moved on technologically. No girly magazines, I have HBO.
