Illinois State Fair of 2010 has been remixed better remembered as the ' Piggy Remix ' because of the grunting pig sounds.

What happened to the ad hom button?

Any post with "thunderdome" in the title is a free-for-all mudslinging party. So there won't be ad hom buttons on those posts.

Actually with a silver/gold ratio of 69/1, Silver is the better bet right now.

PCGyver says

Pretty sure warming and cooling have been going on since longer ago than the 50's

YES! The lack of historical data, and perspective with these alarmists is part of what pisses me off. Everything is a record if record keeping didn't exist until the 21st century...

Leave to the Wogster/Barney Fife to christen the thunder dome rule.

For the pop which both are likely to do. Canadian dollar is killing it and the Australian and New Zealand
dollars are just under CAD performance which is a nice correlation as to metals heading up.
Long term I'm of doubt that gold is going to break into a confirmed upward trend just more counter trend
opportunity.

What has the historical ratio been?

Also, isn't silver mined at a considerably faster rate than gold, implying that that ratio should grow forever?

Neither are no more than a trade and don't have odds of moving more than a few %.

I loaded up on gold last week.

And PICK has been making me a small fortune since last year.

Thanks Patrick,

So if I understand, you will be personally moderating personal attacks on Patnet?

There are 3 types of economic situations:
1 - disinflation/deflation
2 - real growth with low inflation
3 - high inflation/ low real growth.

I think gold would do well only in (3).

That's possible if Trump slows trade/immigration while accelerating domestic investments, but I doubt it.
Congress will be reluctant to do this.

Yes. Not that happy about it because of the edge cases, but I think it has to be done. Hope to eventually delegate it to willing moderators that have a history of impartiality.

So if I understand, you will be personally SELECTIVELY moderating personal attacks on Patnet?

Please point out personal attacks for me to delete. I don't have the system entirely down yet, and someone completely spammed it this morning. Use the ad hominem link. I limited it to 3 outstanding at any one time per reporting user to prevent a similar spamming of it.

Past inter-glacial periods have been much warmer with far less CO2 in the air. If we're indeed reversing and heading for a maunder minimum it will get ugly cold and the so far brutal 2017 winter will seem "warm" in comparison.

Ironman says

The problem is, what one person calls a personal attack might not be by a different person.

There are some cases like that, but mostly I think they are pretty clear:

"You are a goat fucker" is definitely a personal attack and not directed toward the argument.
"That argument is stupid, because..." is probably not a personal attack, because it's about the argument and gives a reason.

Ironman says

What's the fascination with fucking farm animals?? Seems to be a common hobby of the fucking wankers, crybabies and whiners here.

Look, shit for brains, if you haven't figured out that mirror's don't know how to talk back to you we're not going to explain it to you how they work.

jazz music says

... you and your vast imaginary army of patnet troll Putin piggies

Hey Ironman, has your Putie Gold been late this month or what? I was waiting for my 250gr of Siberian Gold Dust but Stanislav - you know the shady guy from Sunny Isles who doesn't work but drives a Mercedes - hasn't been answering calls the past few days.

billmiller says

put my alts on ignore

Guess what Fuckface, this one goes to the trash bin too..

Time for the 12th NEW Alt....

So how come you're such a PUSSY COWARD? You bitched for eeeeeeeeeeever about others doing it??????????? What about it PUSSY???????????

Ironman says

I'm an EXPERT on the whining and crying part!!

Hehehe. Your PUSSY diameter is up to 12 centimeters already.

itssoobvious says

You're PUSSY diameter is up to 12 centimeters already.

That's officially considered labor for goats.

I found piggy's avatar.

YUP, jets been seeding (clouding?) the skies for a while. God knows what HAARP had done in it's history to the ionosphere. They knew something was gonna happen and has once again set us up for more profits to their wallets. The cooling effect they produced, if it does, will be systematically incurred by momma SOL and the "state" this solar system is at. Oh Ya, "We succeeded in stopping warming" so the evening news will mantra. But maybe we need to charge you more "for did and dat", because of did and dat".

How MANY "cycles' have recently been verified, statistically, that few can keep up with including me. Momma SOL and the belief state we are in tells the momentary tale. Imagine

I found piggy's wife. She's calling him.

Those are callouses from banging sheep.

He must have a lot of callouses in his ass.

what the hell...of all the blacks in CA this woman is the best they can send to rep them?

DID RUSSIAN AGENT PRECEDENT FUCKFACE Von CLOWNSTICK DIRECT FLYNN TO SUCK OFF THE RUSSIANS AND HIDE THE BLOW JOB FROM PENCE?

The real question is when will this be on pay-per-view.

Ironman says

When Is The Funeral?

yep, it's dead.

Ironman says

You're too much of a little child to understand adult conversations and should consider staying on topics you know something about.

You have a civility score of 100% Ironman! Try and keep it. You can do it!

NuttBoxer says

Is she a muppet? Seriously, what's the deal with her face?

What's the deal with her wig? Isn't that called cultural appropriation?

Patrick,
If everyone could read these type of threads & comments
patrick.net could become the "Center for Human Trash".
Just think, millions of followers.
Add separate category labeled "ASSHOLES"
People would flock here by the BILLIONS.

You can still make a Thunderdome post and flop around in whatever slop you choose there. Calls to remove the free speech banner, or that "free speech" is dead here, I find pretty laughable.

Ironman says

Ask me if I care..

How much you preserve your score will tell me exactly how much you care.

komputodo says

You can tell what her ethnicity is!?

Note that this is ad hominem against Trump, but since he's not on patrick.net (yet!) it's not a violation of the rule against insulting other users.

I thought he did a good job of grabbing Stephanopolous' pussy and giving it a twist.

He's become completely unhinged.

Eat lead, fuckers!

Ironman says

Do you really think for a millisecond it matters to me what YOU think or that your opinion matters for anything?

Very much so.
Doesn't the fact that you just dinged your civility score, in the face of my challenge, kind of prove the point?

In my opinion, I believe you have a preoccupation with approval. Here on Pnet that has manifested in measuring likes/dislikes/ignores and also being very adversarial with those that not only just don't share your opinion, but that you can tell sway opinion, and ARE valued on PNet. That's just pure observation over the past year+.

What else explains a thread like this, and your reaction to the ad-hom' button? I interpret that as you feeling threatened in a way that does matter to you. Why else post like this?

I am actually a little sorry you get picked on so much. It's not really constructive or beneficial to anyone dishing or taking. (Rew's libby care bear side)

Before I decided to ignore you, I felt there were little glimmers/sparks of reasonable argument in you, but eventually I decided that rational debate with you was a fools errand. It just continued to descend into the abyss. I was happy to have the forums returned to a more balanced state of article and opinion too. So, I gave up on saving the "Darth Vader" of Pnet. (My favorite villain!)

;) Notice you are off ignore now. I'm so curious where you go from here. (eating popcorn) You can continue as you are, no change, or you could decide to give a more civil tone a chance. I don't really think there are high odds of that ... but ... #hope

Ironman says

If you want to be taken seriously with a thread or post, you should just try and find a better source than WaPo.
