Me either. Lately, it’s been so dense, I was having trouble skimming over the chaff to get to the wheat. LOL
What is your definition of a ‘disrupter’?
The problem could be significantly diminished if most people would just discipline themselves to ignore them; simply don’t respond to ANYTHING that they post.
Here is the Q-definition of ‘disrupter,’ as it appears on the threads. I.e.: a disrupter is anyone, on a non-caucus thread, who disagrees in any way with the theory that Q is either Trump or someone close to Trump who is sharing valuable insights with anyone smart enough to appreciate and decipher them.
If that definition is correct, then Q is a cult. If it’s incorrect, then Q-believers need to do a fundamentally better job of not being so nasty to those who do not 100% embrace their wholly unproven and, in many cases at least, counter-rational theory.
” I do wish some of the posters were a little less quick to pass judgment. It’s easy, especially on the Internet, to say harsh or hurtful things, but it’s not necessary.
It takes longer to really understand and appreciate where a person is coming from and to respond in a respectful, circumspect way, but the results are almost always worth the effort. “
The above is taken directly from a certain FReeper’s Profile Page. Can you guess whose? LOL
Fascinating. Are you familiar with “The Four Agreements?” I recommend it to anyone. Broad thesis is how we -all of us -are deeply damaged by childhood, and if we can agree to four things, we can begin a real journey of healing.
The Four Agreements are:
Be impeccable with your word.
Don’t take anything personally.
Don’t make assumptions.
Always do your best.
While the new age movement (NAM) has glommed onto this book with all four feet, there is nevertheless a LOT of wisdom in it for the rest of us who may not subscribe or fully subscribe to many of the ideas of the NAM.
The individual we have encountered has a very thin skin and this is a problem for so many of us who have led damaged childhoods. I sincerely wish that individual well. Every one of his/her posts drips with pain and self defense that seems impenetrable, even to those of us who seek to take that extra time pleaded for on that one’s profile page.
You are a treasure to us all, greeneyes! Thanks for bringing this to my attention!
Rereading that quoted post from profile page - I actually happen to strongly agree with that statement and actually try to practice it!
ironic
Probably so.
No I had not heard of the 4, but certainly good advice. You are welcome. Have a great day-I’m off to get a little work done. Catch you later, I’m sure.
Yes indeed - see you later!
Well, your thread got well and truly hi-jacked, MNDude! That makes me think this topic is very relevant. Q must be over the target with this one! I’m now more inclined than ever to wonder about the deeper significance of what Q means by “Blunt statement.”
I suspect the Anons have already come up with the most plausible answer(s), but I thought I would give it a try.
Is it having to do with the dictionary meaning - obvious - that this statement by Q is blunt? Is it a blunt statement by someone else? Is it a statement by an individual by name of Blunt? I know I’ve seen a few proposed. Does it obliquely imply something to do with drugs since a blunt can be a hollowed out cigar with marijuana in it?
Dictionary.com shows one of the meanings to blunt to be:
Blunt definition, having an obtuse, thick, or dull edge or point; rounded; not sharp: a blunt pencil.
Obtuse is a word that strikes me from this “blunt” definition. The dems and bad actors are ALL making obtuse statements, which would take in a lot of territory!
Obtuse:
Definition of obtuse - annoyingly insensitive or slow to understand, (of an angle) more than 90° and less than 180°, not sharp-pointed or sharp-edged;
en.oxforddictionaries.comhttps://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/obtuse
These insensitive and slow to understanding statements are made so often by dems, that it is their modus operandi whenever they find themselves before a microphone! There are a lot of microphones and a lot of statements!
In addition to the above, my search engine brought up:
*There are is also a web site called “blunt umbrellas!” Far fetched, but still a possibility:
This brings to my mind the way the communist and probably CIA spooks would use poison tipped umbrella spines to hit targets in a crowd.
*James Blunt.com Official Site with band information, audio and video clips, photos, downloads and tour dates.
*Emily Blunt, Actress: Edge of Tomorrow. Emily Olivia Leah Blunt is a British actress known for her roles in The Devil Wears Prada (2006), The Young Victoria (2009 ...
*** In my mind this one is perhaps most likely: Senator Roy Blunt, (R) -
Senator Roy Blunt’s Military Family Stability Act Headed to the President’s Desk. Senator Blunt announced that his Military Family Stability Act passed the Senate as part of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) conference report and is now headed to President Trump’s desk. Blunt introduced the bill in May of this year and successfully included it in the Senate-passed NDAA.www.blunt.senate.govhttps://www.blunt.senate.gov/public/
He’s liable to have made a LOT of statements! Are there any in particular for which we should be concerned?
** Blunt also happens to be the name of a piece of military equipment of some sort:
http://warframe.wikia.com/wiki/Blunt
Blunt is an item occasionally carried by some Grineer units during missions, visible as a large backpack with orange lights. When deployed, the Blunt inflates into a small, black wall that Grineer units can use as cover to defend from enemies, and can be deployed anywhere on the map. The Blunt itself has a limited amount of health (which depends on the level of its user), and unlike environmental cover can be destroyed with any attack. A Blunt can only be deployed once per unit and once deployed it will slowly start to “deflate” (lose health) on its own.
I had not heard of this item before.
* There is also a BLUNT SD. Did that city make a statement? Lots of energy activity in SD, isn’t there?

I think that Senator Blunt has a recent statement/twitter that might be related to current news cycle. I’m just gonna wait and see.
That is what I was inclined to think too, but was fascinated by the other “blunt” possibilities!
