You are almost always wrong, but I am almost always right.

DenoPenno comments on Oct 1, 2018:

**I wish so, but maybe there is not.** In the movie "Seven Pounds" my now ex wife got something wrong as the plot unfolded and she said it out loud to me. It had just been explained on the DVD to full understanding, so I stopped the movie and played it back for her. Will Smith's words alone explained it. I had to play this several times and she never got it. I gave up and we finished the movie. I thought that event showed conclusively that people hear things the way they want to hear things. It's because of this that you cannot change their minds. Politics is no different.

Bwaaaahahaha.

DenoPenno comments on Oct 1, 2018:

When it comes to conservatives most of us do not see facts. We are not shown facts. Instead we see a man as POTUS who is hated in most of the political world and has been barred from 2 funerals. A man who wanted to tell the UN that he has done more for America than any other president and he got laughed at. A man that makes every situation all about himself.

Kavanaugh lied under oath in his interview, demonstrated his partisan bias, and displayed a ...

DenoPenno comments on Oct 1, 2018:

I can tell everyone very quickly what this is all about. It's very plain to see. 1. The Kavanaugh nomination has everything to do with Roe v. Wade all over again. 2. The Kavanaugh nomination is all about the fact that Kavanuagh believes you cannot indict a sitting president. Understand those two points and you can see quickly what Trump and the boys are up to. You can see what's in store for America. I'm one who does not like what I see.

I know stupid people who have a skin tag on their eye lid. OK, I know this is delicate but you can remove that, and I personally would remove that. What you do is have a friend tie regular sewing thread around the skin tag and tie it tight as possible. Close your eyes gently and have the friend cut off the excess sewing thread. The area may feel like it has been "pinched" but just leave it alone. In a few days the skin tag will rot off. You no longer have it of the thread. Presto! You are healed.

I'm wanting to challenge my beliefs, but struggling to find a challenge to them.

DenoPenno comments on Sep 30, 2018:

No can do. I don't debate and have no desire to debate. This is mostly because of hours of stupid debate in which some ignorant idea is supposed to "prove god" but the subject of said debate was a totally different thing. I don't waste my time.

bring education back, please!

DenoPenno comments on Sep 30, 2018:

A very ignorant man. He wants "Trump favor" because his wife got Trump favor. As for factories and more jobs here in America most people are dumb and blind. New factories are not built here and Trump cannot force anyone to build them here. He is a conman and has been his entire life. Why don't people understand this?

What are your favorite proofs against the Bible?

DenoPenno comments on Sep 30, 2018:

My biggest proofs against the bible are the bible itself. How and when all the books were put together as one book, people thinking this made a chain of events as a story, and lying through their teeth to claim it is all in harmony as an infallible narrative. That idea is simply not the case and is also exactly why you will find biblical contradictions. Let's get into that very first book where you find a talking snake and it is all because of this serpent that you even need Jesus. It gets more ridiculous when you find out that the snake was right. To go along with Christianity you have to just continue to make things up. I rest my case.

I keep seeing people posting about the allegations of sexual assault against Bill Clinton and how ...

DenoPenno comments on Sep 30, 2018:

Your last paragraph nailed it and I believe every time I hear about Bill Clinton in this way today it's a dodge to avoid things about Kavanaugh or Bone Spurs himself. These allegations are all about power and those who seek, or are in power. Bill Clinton is no longer in that category. Discussing his history is avoiding current issues. Many forget that Trump was on tape as saying "you can go into their dressing rooms, grab 'em by the pussy, or do anything you want." Today he wants us all to think this was "fake news." It's the hypocrisy of double speak Republicons.

I love political cartoons. So much said with few to no words.

I think you have done a good job here and if Kavanaugh's GOP buddies do know know this it would surprise me. I think they are just keeping quiet about it. FFFF was known when I was in high school or even before. I was unaware of "boofing" as a term but the practice is to get you drunk quicker as the alcohol is quickly absorbed.

Test showing sexual preferences

DenoPenno comments on Sep 30, 2018:

I have no problems but I know people who have problems with sexual preferences. You guessed it. Most of them are religious.

There is a lot of discussion about people "deserving" things these days.

DenoPenno comments on Sep 30, 2018:

Many think that others "deserve" bad things. Especially if they have killed someone or done bad things, but it is getting to where they think badly of you if you seem to have it better than they do. I know an idiot who wants me to loan him money just because he can't manage his money. If I did that then I wouldn't have any money. I think he admires and hates me at the same time. Is that possible? He keeps trying to tell me stories of the electric company shutting off his power. I stop him and ask if he owed them money how is he going to tell this story and have me be on his side? He gets more money than I do. He "deserves" this.

Garage sale vs Store?

DenoPenno comments on Sep 30, 2018:

I can agree with you but I do my share of garage sales. What I mostly get at a garage sale is electronic and computer junk that is important to me, and you have to know how to buy this. Any old junk won't do and I find bargains when the seller really has no idea what they have or how to use it. My current computer speaker system cost me a dollar. **That's right. A whole dollar.** That was the 3.1 tweeter part that they had no idea about and I got my 2 speakers free off a junker stereo at a sale. Now my favorite computer sounds like a jukebox. Living alone I find that I do not need matching pots and pan sets. Often you find that lonely little pot or pan hardly if ever used at a garage sale and it's just right for you. There are often bargains in tools as well. You have to know what to look for and what really is junk, and I know if I'm buying anything in just 5 minutes.

What exactly is mindfulness?

DenoPenno comments on Sep 29, 2018:

I am mindful of everything. I'm told that I analyze things too much but I have to know and I do believe that I live in the moment. Here is a mystery. My hair brush always sets in the same place in the master bedroom right by the big mirror. I use it and put it right back in that same place and nobody else lives here. Over night it has white stains on it that look like paint drippings. Absolutely nothing will clean this and it cannot be removed. I even tried paint remover and denatured alcohol. What happened and where did the white stains come from? I do not have the answer** but the solution was to simply buy another hair brush.** Any ideas, or has my living in the moment wet to excess?

DenoPenno comments on Sep 29, 2018:

Theists try to convert me because maybe I was "never a real Christian" or possibly "my baptism didn't take the first time around." I think it's funny. If they persist and I get to them ( I studied for the ministry) a change happens and they start telling me what their "Holy Goat" is telling them to tell me. It's like the HG is a go between because they read that somewhere in their Buybull. It's a different version of "Simon Says."

How do you deal with bullies?

DenoPenno comments on Sep 29, 2018:

I avoid them mostly. I'm talking in real life. At my age if I get a reaction out of some punk bully he must really envy me a lot. I've had that and he jumps around and wants to beat my ass. People who think he is kool are all smiling and crap. I ignore it and make my point and he then looks like the idiot that he is. It's all over then. Online super smart and educated Republicons seem to want to counter my remarks on Trump and the boys with ideas that "I might not be a citizen." (I'm serious.) I think they want to force me to show my birth certificate.

Does anyone truly "believe"?

DenoPenno comments on Sep 29, 2018:

Face it. He is lying because he wants more money as SCOTUS for the rest of his life. That's why he did nothing at all. Yes, nothing. Conservative talk radio today was down on Megyn Kelly. They claimed she left Fox News for another network, her ratings are not that high, and she hates Donald Trump. What does that have to do with Kavanaugh? They even said Kelly did all this for money. OK. Kavanaugh has done the same and he's doing it now -- for money! We actually have that right to pursue a better job in America if we like. We do not have the right to commit perjury. We do not have to like Donald Trump.

DenoPenno comments on Sep 28, 2018:

My only real experience with Muslims was in Africa in 2004. Otherwise I have spoken to Muslim women in a fast food place. I am friendly with a Minnonite woman in a deli and bakery I go to. Once the subject came up about evil in the world and 2 customers discussed it. They left and I asked the Minnonite clerk about it. She starts out "well, you see the devil . . . . . . " But I don't see the devil. I really don't. The devil I see is in the image of men.

Kavanaugh Hearings: Toxic Masculinity is ‘Endemic’ to the Far Right [therealnews.com]

DenoPenno comments on Sep 28, 2018:

This morning I caught some high lights of this crap on TV. Bret is telling a supposedly moving thing as his girls are saying their prayers. Wait! What is this shit? As a former Evangelical who was in church 3 times a week I do not remember this nonsense. We prayed enough in church. Someone might mention at bedtime to "say your prayers" but that was about it. The entire essence here was "don't let the boogyman get me." Now with great soap opera type drama we are supposed to believe this man is so religious and the use of children praying is making that clear to us. I wanna puke! I simply do not know anyone who believes like this and if you think on it you probably do not either. That makes this whole charade nothing but story time. Do you think these Congressmen and Senators do this in their families? I don't.

I thought some of us need to inject some humor into this cesspool.

DenoPenno comments on Sep 28, 2018:

I respect this and hope they do wait. The big reason they do not want to wait is that the mid terms may cast a different light on Kavanaugh if Dems balance out everything. There is haste to get him in there right now. We can re-do Roe and also get Trump power to pardon himself.** I find it strange that most people do not see this as what is really going on. **One Repuglican told a Dem that they would remember this the next time Dems wanted to nominate somebody. I remember it right now. I remember how Garland didn't even get a mention.

He doesn't understand "fact checking" because anybody can say anything but my Trump hate must be on the same level as Whoopi Goldberg. She has her's coming, we are all ignorant, and Trump has the FBI and the CIA working right now on the arrests and imprisonment of the Clintons and the Obamas. It's coming, I will see it, and he will be around to tell me **"I told you so**" when it happens. If you are losing this kind of friend I wouldn't worry about it much. I'm posting this because everybody has at least one moron friend. My problem is that I keep meeting others who think like this. Help!

DenoPenno comments on Sep 28, 2018:

I agree that it is about frigging time. A point to consider in American politics is that as long as women's clinics are known as "abortion clinics" a noticeable change will not be seen. These clinics take up on sex education where the parent and school left off and maybe never trod. They give young girls birth control meds and this has to be wrong coz the church said so. God wanted us to "be fruitful and multiply and replenish the earth." A simple condom can prevent HIV but the church says not to use it. I have a Republican friend who tells me how many abortions some of "these women have had" when such info is not public information. Think. Do the math. Are pills cheaper than abortions? It must be hard for some of these men to even be married. Then we have the Evangelical who knows god is on his side when he killed "an abortion doctor." Nothing will change here until we get "god" out of American politics. That might be a long time away from now.

Religion is where you suddenly decide that you have to worship something and it's either long dead or invisible or both. Then laws are passed saying you have every right to do that if you want to. From time to time you might claim persecution and others with more horrible nonsense than yours try to steal you away to their religion. It's bad enough on its own but gets lots worse if politics are involved.

DenoPenno comments on Sep 26, 2018:

I don't know if these 2 stories made me mad but they did increase my doubts. 1. A preacher once was out fishing with his friend who was a smoker.The man coughed a lot and lit up time and again to finally say "these cigarettes are killing me" and he fell over and died. 2. UFO's were getting popular and a preacher once claimed to have seen one and it landed. A man and a woman got out of the craft and later it took off again. The preacher later sees this woman working in a cafe and it's the same woman but she denies seeing him before. This crazy story was told because the preacher thought he knew "flying saucers" were a hoax of the devil and this all had something to do with fooling mankind. It's "end times" stuff. When you listen to preachers and pastors you get many lame stories.

DenoPenno comments on Sep 26, 2018:

A trip to my mailbox today produced extreme right wing political literature. A careful look at it produced the following names: The Heritage Foundation One Nation America Org. Fox News These are some of the people behind Trump and company and they include the Kock brothers, Mercers, DeVos family, David Green, and many others. These are people that want Kavanaugh at any cost, a wall to keep out immigrants, and an end to sanctuary cities, etc. They have a political agenda that would make Hitler proud and many of their projects are backed by 1.5 million dollars or more. All I did was go to the One Nation website and browse around to get the current agenda to see what's going on. Of course the names I listed are not on the website but I've done my homework from before. These people mean business and they are terribly wrong. That makes Morales spot on when he says "the United States could not care less about human rights or justice."

I am a very tolerant person.

DenoPenno comments on Sep 26, 2018:

Members should be able to express their opinions but what you call "hate speak" about Trump may not be so. I would not go across the street to see or hear this POTUS who so far has topped 6000 plus lies in 2 years. How do I know? I fact check. You can too if you care enough. Everything is out there and recorded. You may choose to believe the "real truth and real news" was never around until Trump arrived in politics. This makes me wonder where the "wonder man" gets his facts. He tweets me to death and I just wish he would shut the fuck up! His defenders claim his tweets are fine and this technology was not around with previous presidents. This makes me laugh a little. It seems now that Trump and his swamp want to sue the media to get "fairness" of their views out there. This disturbs me because one such conservative supporter has attacked me on another site where I use this same name as "not being a citizen." The man is college educated and he says this while I was born here. Is this the type of "fairness" that you want to start seeing? I hope not. As far as administrators of this site or any other site I think they can do as they want to when it is their site. Possibly they do not want a situation where they have to give "equal time" to views not supported by facts. If anything at all makes this premise change then you no longer live in the America that I know. I happen to not support every "letter to the editor" needing to be printed. Media should be able to pick and choose.

PragerFU: Do We Have Free Will? - misterdeity [youtube.com]

DenoPenno comments on Sep 26, 2018:

Of course we do. I have the free will to be a rapist. The raped woman has the free will to get raped. The old and long drawn out adage of "free will" is there to illustrate to you how much your god wants you to decide on your own that you want to serve him. It makes little sense the way bible thumpers present it. I have the free will to eat a hamburger tonight -- or maybe not.

I can't imagine why women don't come forward. g

DenoPenno comments on Sep 26, 2018:

It does seem that the world is more likely to believe men in rape cases. Consider that the zipper was made for men's clothing so as to make it easier to commit rape. Google it. Look it up.

Where Did the Universe Come From?

DenoPenno comments on Sep 26, 2018:

I'll give this my best shot. Do you mean the universe or the cosmos? Are they the same? Is it possible that one of them always existed? Other than these possibilities I haven't a clue and neither do you.

It's twue, it's twue! g

They laughed at the moron in the UN and Sinclair media in my area is not even carrying that story.

Trump weighing antitrust probe into Google, Facebook & Twitter.

DenoPenno comments on Sep 26, 2018:

It could happen here or anywhere. All you need is a bastard like Trump backed by people like Stephen the Gerbil to insist that you need to listen to and allow their insanity. Media can pick and choose and when they lose that right we all go back to a type of theocratic fascism like our world has seen before in the 1930's. That's why Trump was laughed at in the UN. He says he didn't expect that. What did he expect? He claims that he and his administration have done more for America in 2 years than any other administration in American history. It was similar to his claim of the biggest inauguration crowd. These bastards get upset and claim that we are stifling the "free speech" of Alex Jones. His revenue maybe but his speech is going to get someone killed. Why should things like this be allowed? Why do we have to allow and listen to so called conservatives when they make claims that our fact check of them was "fake news?" Everything is recorded and some of us also remember. They lie but they need to explain what was "fake" about it. Instead they just lie again. In my own case on social media I am attacked by an apparently educated conservative because he says "I may not be a citizen." These people are confused by a user name. It's so damned funny. A citizen at birth and the last time I checked, this is the kind of nonsense and progress that 45 has made in 2 years. The big problem is that he wants to browbeat everyone into drinking the koolaid so badly that he wants to force the rest of America and the world to agree with him. Wake up, look around yourself, and ask where you might have seen this sort of thing before. Is there perhaps examples of this from world history in our past, and did that all have a happy ending. I think not. This is why we need to fight it again today. Vote blue in November.

Okay, so Cosby has been sentenced to at least three, and no more than ten years.

DenoPenno comments on Sep 25, 2018:

If Cosby wasn't black Donald Trump would pardon him.

Do you need a hug today? Don't worry. It's not from me. [youtube.com]

Dogs are cute but I would hug you Graceylou. :)

Donald Trump's Boastful Comments Draw Laughter At United Nations General Assembly | HuffPost

DenoPenno comments on Sep 25, 2018:

He didn't expect the laughter but that's OK. What a moron. The last time the whole world laughed at us was in June 2018. Now the baboon insults many other nations of people and even had balls enough to say that in less than 2 years his administration has done more for America that any other president. Who in the hell can possibly stand behind this ignorant moron clown?

Verify your voter registration status - Common Cause

DenoPenno comments on Sep 25, 2018:

In my pocket is a paper form card of registration. It came earlier this year (or at the end of last year) to replace one that I had just like it. The color is different and my county sends these to you in the mail assuming you had registered before. I have already voted once this year.

Ocasio-Cortez, Democratic Socialists of America candidate, covers for CIA Democrats - World ...

DenoPenno comments on Sep 25, 2018:

I keep hearing terms like "CIA Democrats" and reading posts about who this is, etc. but it comes across to me as a lot of bullshit. People want to use terms like CIA Democrats to try and prove that we had best just be happy with Trump because** this other side is equally as bad**. WTF? Sounds like Alex Jones and Breitbart crap to me. Am I to believe that this was just around the corner anyway but it all rode in on Trump's coat tails? I think not. It all came with Trump.

Do you expect your tax cut to be greater or less than last year?

DenoPenno comments on Sep 25, 2018:

Mine should be about the same. I'm in the grid but live as if I was off the grid. My maximum amounts of anything is close enough to not cause a problem. In other words, I get damned near all my money back.

What happens after a human being dies?

DenoPenno comments on Sep 25, 2018:

The sadness that you refer to is exactly why religions were invented. I was always taught that you would see your loved ones again in heaven, we would all be around 30 years old in appearance, and yet we would all know each other, etc. Oh, come on! Where did this crap come from?? It's not even in the Buybull.

DenoPenno comments on Sep 25, 2018:

Your cosmos is your god. It's alive but not the same way we are alive. It does not think as humans think. It simply IS. We are star stuff. The universe does not care for or protect us. We are simply here for a short time.

What simple thing bothers you the most in this current society?

DenoPenno comments on Sep 25, 2018:

Trump's UN tripe was all ego and praise of only a few. He says we are going to pick our friends in other nations and only reward them if they do what we want. His push for a theocratic fascism that he thinks Americans want has echoes of the 1930's.

Good riddance Bill Cosby.

DenoPenno comments on Sep 25, 2018:

It's confirmed now that Cosby got 3-10 and you can kiss his ass goodbye. Is he king of the Daterape? I thought that was a name for one of Trumps sons. he other one is Eddie Munster.

I would be interested to hear about people's experiences on the job market.

DenoPenno comments on Sep 25, 2018:

At my company you apply online and once they get all your info you are called in for an interview. If everything is in order and they need someone you will most likely get the job. In my own experience it was well over a month before I got the phone call to come in and interview.

An interesting video of the story of a woman who left a mega church: [youtu.be]

DenoPenno comments on Sep 25, 2018:

Yes, what a friend we have in Jesus. It's from an old song and not in your bible. People were amazed that this man died for you so you do not have to die, but yet you died anyway. Explain that to me again please.

Job satisfaction.

DenoPenno comments on Sep 25, 2018:

If you have your dream job you are lucky. Most of us at my income level do not have that luxury. We do what we must to get by. I am fortunate in a way that makes some people hate me. I have no mortgage worries, etc. because for many months before retiring I was able to save a thousand a month. I am frugal but I basically am able to do what I want. Others that I know simply spend money. I have job enough to help me maintain mine.

If your ex text you and said I love you will you give me another chance?

DenoPenno comments on Sep 25, 2018:

It's not that simple. I would have to do a lot of soul searching. My ex is a wonderful person but she does not understand about money and responsibility. Maybe she is changing some now and learning. IDK?

I love the song. Nash was like a one hit wonder but he helped usher in a genre of music. I forget the movie but he was in one once and played the part of a man named "Apple." I don't know much else about Johnny Nash.

Does a ring really matter?

DenoPenno comments on Sep 25, 2018:

Rings matter mostly to women. Women like gold. In reality the "ring" is a modern form of the chain that may have been used so many years ago. In the church world they prefer rings thinking that men will not go after their married women, so wear your rings. I"m saying that if another man wants your woman a ring is not going to stop him.

Importing Jihadi Terror to the UK – Cui Bono?

DenoPenno comments on Sep 25, 2018:

All it means to me is that your country will take away some freedoms that you have if this type of terrorism makes it to your country. It might be used to give that country more power over you and this would be why it was allowed in to start with.

Some people are just born into a lucky life while others aren’t? True or false?

DenoPenno comments on Sep 25, 2018:

There is a certain degree of truth to this but your life is still what you make it. Born into money would make your life much more easy in many ways but your choices frame your fate. I once knew a woman who openly defied fate and had an affair with a married man. She told everyone that this guys wife did not care and was a terrible woman. She followed the man to his work all the time and was by his side. One day the guy's wife showed up and split this woman's lip. At the hospital she said out loud "why does everything happen to me."
