Have you ever had a job and a boss?

Did you own your boss?

Did you own your mother or father?

"My car" - it goes in "my garage." I get to use both as I see fit and am held responsible for any use I make of them.
"My house" - I get to live in and use it as I see fit.
"My White House" - I have all the rights and privileges to use it as I would my neighbor's house. Which means in no reasonable sense do I have any personal claims or responsibilities on it. Neither does any other individual U.S. citizen.
"My parent" - Someone who I do NOT get to use as I see fit and am NOT held responsible for their actions.
"My child" - Someone who I do NOT get to use as I see fit (but am allowed some control over,) and AM held responsible for some of their actions.
"My boss/job" - see "My parent".

My first post was meant as a joke on the subtle effects of possessive pronouns  in our perceptions.  I submit that the "Not My President" protesters appear to me to be using "my" in the sense of "my house" or "my car" and NOT in the sense of "my parent" or "my boss/job" because they didn't get the president they chose (as you can your car, house, or boss/job) or because they think the president should do as they see fit (as you can your car, house, or child to some extent.)

There are crayons, coloring books, puppies, grief counselors, and cookies and milk for you as you leave the spin area.  You can substitute the cookies, and milk for apple juice, and graham crackers.

Well damn. The only honorable thing would be for me to commit seppuku since Trump vs. Clinton is exactly what we got. Tell my dog I love him.

Stay with us! In the same thread I said I might have to get drunk if it were to be H v Trump, as I have never been drunk and would need a state of semi-consciousness. But Trump is here and this is just so interesting to watch that I want to be fully alert. :)

I move that we absolve everyone of their previous statements. After all, as pilots you all know that the key to surviving and thriving is adjusting to the new data!

Just like choosing an alternate airport, I had to choose an alternate Republican candidate; about 14 or 15 times.

I think Steingar's absence is more due to the prop strike than that election. He seemed to disappear right after the strike.

It must have really scared him because I'm sure insurance is covering it.

Maybe it is hard for him to accept his lack of perfection.  Sometimes libs are traumatized by that realization.

I have a conservative friend who landed his Lancair gear up.  He learned a lesson and is right back in the left seat, older and wiser.  He always knew he wasn't perfect, so his ego was only dented, not broken.

Inappropriate post.

 I don't see this as inappropriate.  Steingar doesn't strike me as a shrinking violet type, I'm sure when he gets around to it he'll show  Mase his question doesn't apply to him.  But in Mase's defense, I know many people who are exactly as he describes and it is quite sad someone lives like that.   We are all very imperfect.

He made a wild-ass assumption that Steingar is upset about his prop strike because he's a liberal that thinks he's perfect. And Steingar isn't here to defend himself. That's inappropriate.

Steingar chooses not to be here.

And note that he felt free to criticize others when they had accidents.  If he wants to dish it out, he can't complain about others critiqueing him.

Only irritating or outre people who post a lot are noticed missing, so it would take quite a while for you to be missed. Sorry.

Online life seems to emulate real life - when someone dies, the amount of chatter and gossip that occurs afterwords appears to be in proportion to how big a bastard they were. (That assumes the bastard dies first.)

Actually he didn't assume anything, he said maybe it's this reason,  a nuance for sure, but it certainly allows for the possibility that he (Mase) is completely wrong.  Once again an offshoot of political correctness rears it's ugly head.    And once again we disagree.

Fair point, Still inappropriate. But it's just my opinion, not a law. You're welcome to disagree.  And in fact, if we didn't disagree, I'd be surprised.  :)
