You all know it pisses Turd off... and YET YOU STILL DO IT.  Knock it off.  Everybody wants to be the king of the interwebz.

You dumbasses are why we can't have anything nice.  Enjoy your own bile.

Me...I am enjoying my freshly delivered (Today!) Year of the Snake coins I bought when spot was $30.  They are absolutely badass.  I won't get too attached to them, my plan is to flip my high premium stuff for gold when the ratio gets lower to get more gold than if I traded in some low/no premium stuff. 

Have a nice weekend.

Yep. Printing money is a reaction to a crisis that will exist anyway. If they stopped printing tomorrow the result would eventually be the same. Gold and silver being valuable regardless of the fiat price. Keep stacking is all we can do.

I totaly agree . We too are 100% in PMs.

And I believe it will be some big black swan or as you say a mega crisis and to the moon we go.

But so what. It will just make our PMs and miner shares worth a lot more of worthless fiat currency .

Thanks to Benny

Eventually I see T-shirts popping up that say:

PRINT THIS, BITCH.

(note: I release all intellectual property rights associated with this idea)

Christmas is coming.

thank you for your attempt at on-line community Turd.  really.

Apparently you live in a "community" where everyone thinks the same. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think that's called "communism".

Yeah, we're all here for the end of Keynesian experiment but to expect everyone to approach it from the same angle is pretty disingenuous.

Appreciate your thoughts though.

Id just as soon trade a few pieces of silver for the "catch of the day" down at the docks. No need for any fiat. lol

I'm glad I found some people to agree with me. Man, its been bad enough stacking gold and having friends and family think Im nuts. Throw in the 'we dont need no stinkin paper to make my gold worthwhile' to the mix and Im damn near in a box. 

I just dont need no more paper to make my gold and silver shine. lol

Thats a great T Shirt idea. I'd wear it.

"Are these people retarded?"

Statistically speaking, probably not most of them.

With an average IQ (as a group) of around 85, most of those posters were likely not diagnosed as Intellectually Disabled (the more 'in vogue' terminology). 

That would require an IQ below 70. Obviously, with normal statistical distribution and outliers one or more standard deviations from the mean, a portion will be 'official' with regard to their mental limitations. What those tweets demonstrate, though, is not the well-established IQ differential, but instead the well-established differential in propensity to violence and hyper-agressive sexuality.

Hope that helps. 

please consider the consequences. Yes, you have a right to post them. With rights come responsibilities.

The owner of this site has responsibilities as well.

Meanwhile In Beijing: "For The Respect Of The Motherland, We Must Go To War With Japan"

Anti-US protests sweeping across the entire Muslim world (which are continuing today), besieging, attacking and burning down US embassies, are not the only thing that the central banker policy vehicle known as "the markets" have to ignore in the coming days and weeks. Cause here comes China: "Thousands besiege Japan's embassy in Beijing over Tokyo's assertion of control over disputed islands in East China Sea." And China is not happy: "For The Respect Of The Motherland, We Must Go To War With Japan." Sure enough, where would the US be if the focal point of this escalation in militant anger - the Senkaku Islands - was not merely the latest expression of Pax Americana, and America's national interests abroad.

pecker - "the first two cavemen sharing a cave"

Does the propaganda know no end? First, all the children's shows on the 'family channel' and now this. Can we not even let cavemen remain straight? What ever happened to the caveman dragging his cavegirl back to the cave? Not a perfect system, but do we have to re-write the cavemen as being quite so open-minded and tolerant? Is nothing sacred?

Thanks! .

There are extraordinary and consequential things taking place right now that we should be discussing... yet I find myself scrolling through, uh, a bunch of chaff to get at the rare kernels of wheat.  The signal to noise ratio has been rather disappointing, given the incredible potential of this forum to truly inform. 

Just as bad, there are posters whose opinions I look for and benefit from reading, who are wasting space and their not inconsiderable talents sniping at each other.  Sucks when I have traded PM's and public posts with people on each "side", only to see those whose opinions I otherwise respect just sniping away at each other. 

Do you know what a NVM or a NVP is?  I didn't either until I got my ego handed to me at ZH a few years ago.  Here's the story.  For people reading ZH today, you get mostly a contest to see who can churn out the pithiest snide comment.  Back in the day, maybe three years ago, it wasn't so-  you had high level discussions, strong opinion, and many times you needed an MBA just to follow along the trader/hedge fund speak... the acronyms, the wall street slang, the insider jokes about companies and trading desks... it was a no-bullshit "you better know what the fuck you are talking about" environment and the regulars didn't suffer fools easily. 

So I was following along in the comments one day and I posted a smart-ass comment about the topic-  nothing directed negatively at anyone personally, just a snide comment on the topic of the day.  The type of thing you see 80% of the time there, today.  But one of the well-known posters followed up my post with a three letter reply:  "NVM".  Confused, I looked this up on urban dictionary or something, and was pissed to find it stood for No Value Member. Its cousin is "NVP" for No Value Post.  I was angrily composing my reply when I thought, "Wait a minute-  he's right.  I was just spouting off a half-assed opinion, there really WASN'T any value to people in that. Everyone has an opinion, just stating it harshly really doesn't add any value here.  I shouldn't be pissed off, I should try to do better". 

So I try to add value with every post, I always have that NVM thing in the back of my mind even today.  Now I don't always succeed, but honestly when I post here I try to add some type of value- even if it is a stupid photoshop to get people to smile, or a joke (which adds value, IMO) or more substantive commentary, I always try to add some value when I put something up.  So despite hanging out here pretty much every day, I average less than two posts per day-  because I try to make them count.   

What I am saying is, maybe if folks thought a little more about whether their post really has value to others, or perhaps considered that just throwing out harshly worded opinion doesn't really add much value in the grand scheme of things, the signal to noise ratio might increase significantly.  Because seriously, I really value what most of you bring to the table here...  but I have very little interest in every thought or opinion that crosses your mind. And I have absolutely zero interest in reading a post that says, in essence, "I disagree with poster X and think he is a moron".   A little effort at editing, and concentrating on whether a post has value to others, could go a long way.  JMO.

I hear ya. I am no longer doing the talk about the stacking thing.All my family and friends think I;m living on some other planet.

Truth is I do feel so blessed. We  have our farm all payed for. We produce way more then we need. 50 years of hard work and a fight to keep the bills paid from one month to the next.

I;v been a farmer my whole life so I don;t give a shit if we fall into a depression. I;m used to  it. 

The only thing that feels real to me in these times is this farm and what we produce so I guess it has all payed off.

You said it so much better than me.  I respect everyone here and it is just silly to have internet flame wars on Main St.

I rarely have much of anything of value to post that someone hasn't posted already.  I always look forward to Turd's latest insight, but I also value the contributions from the community.

You wanna sling insults, go to the Fight Club, Turd already provided when he attempted to get this snide behavior under control months ago: http://www.tfmetalsreport.com/forums/turds-fight-club  "Hey numbnutz, I am way more erudite than your knuckle-dragging ass, meet me at the Fight Club so i can own you on an internet forum."

Do you respect Turd?  Then, show some friggin respect.  Nuff said.
