I make a motion that if anyone is to take someone’s opinions seriously, they will only do so if that person doesn’t use the word “hateration” when stating their position

As much as I like the concept, I reserve the right to make shit up (including words) in support of any and all of my future arguments, so I'll have to move to table this proposal.

Second that motion...only because if I'm posting after getting home from class at 11 pm, or, worse, at 2 in the morning after hours of studying, I'm likely to include some words in my postings that don't make a whole lot of sense.

My motion did not include all made up words, only "hateration" (mainly because it has been overused, and it's becoming annoying)

I don't think I ever said that criticism of Obama is automatically hateration. When the criticisms are objective and focus on the actual policy issues, it is more likely that the criticism is honest, legitimate criticism. Comments that are subjective in nature and hinge on personal attributes tend to lean more towards being hateration.

I can't find a polite way to tell deepimpact to shut up.

ASTalumna did a pretty good job. :)

On an ALLEGEDLY less subjective and haterationalistic note, I appreciate the fact that the 787 billion stimulus package has been signed into law.

And, luckily for me, 1) I didn't have to hear him talk about it and 2) there is this website (http://www.recovery.gov/) that SHOWS Americans where the money is going without all the colorful language and hooplahas. See..... Rock on!

Obama is good for some websites.

More websites. Less hateration and holleration in this dancerie.

Senusret I 02-17-2009 08:18 PM

Double posting because that picture of Obama startled me and he looks like Bert.

This is hateration and holleration because only a hater and holler would notice this.

Your picture is outdated. As of the new ad campaign it will officially be called simply "H" and only talked about by Lil' Wayne in abstract terms over a series of pictures of old time haters where no one is really sure what is going on.

Damn - that was fast! As a marketing professional who works with Web design/designers, I'm seriously impressed! Did he have to issue an executive order to get that site done?
