It is about the principle, no secrets have been revealed here. And I thought the whole idea of having Marty back was to start considering him a non-sociopath despite his history.

The principle still applies - don't share anything with those three that you don't want to be shared around like a comfort woman in a Japanese army camp.

What the hell is sociopathic in what I posted? It's not that I revealed some secret or shameful thing. Unless you are ashamed that you have a girlfriend or that you like that politician (which you actually admitted before on Languish).  :huh:

To be honest, I thought the fact that you had a girlfriend was a public knowledge here. I don't filter information based on where I hear it because I dont remember where I heard it - especially as I was away for so long so I just assume everything I hear about posters is generally common Languish knowledge.

As for the fact that your girlfriend likes this politician - I haven't actually heard it from anyone, just made the connection (since how the hell would you have heard about some obscure Polish politician otherwise). To be honest, if she is a fan of his and, unlike you, she is not ignorant in Polish politics, this makes me think a lot of bad things about her. The guy is more nasty than Farrage, Le Pen or Santorum.

Tamas

My main issue is you involving her in your usual derogatory comments. Avoiding that is precisely why I did not mention her before.

I'm pretty sure the reason most people who spoke in favour of Marty returning was that they're amused by the train wrecks he causes, not because they somehow thought he had improved as a human being (though him trying to keep up the pretence of not being a terrible human being is likely entertaining to some).

The reason he got the boot earlier was, essentially, that he'd accumulated too many unamusing and disgusting train wrecks for the abstract languish consensus.

I'm afraid - and this is my interpretation of languish's reaction rather than my own opinion - that Marty being vexatious about your personal life like this is more amusing than unamusing.

Polish news thread instantly becomes 90% coverage and commentary on Marty's antics -- sounds about right.

But objectively, guys, do you agree with Tamas here?

I'm a bad man because I make fun of the fact that his girlfriend supports a racist, homophobic, antisemitic politician who uses words like "niggers" from the European Parliament's speech podium?

How is it at all about "my antics"?

Making fun of one's girlfriend is usually considered bad form no matter what the context.

Ok, tell it to people who make fun of "Dawid" and "Wiktor" all the time. Or is the rule not applicable to boyfriends?

Exactly. Chivalry doesn't apply to gay dudes just because their partner makes more money than they do.  :P

Has Tamas ever made fun of Dawid or Wiktor?
