  I was thinking, wouldn’t it be fun to try to translate from “MF-ese” into English, so that everyone can enjoy his nasty little rants? So I ran it through the MF translator. Here goes:

  MF wrote:

  here’s the problem with that argument though. it’s the difference between rights and what is “right.”

  Translation: It’s the difference between rights and “what I think is right, and therefore, so should everyone else”.

  MF wrote:

  many people (e.g. liberals) don’t have the courage to call things in a black-or-white way – everything is shades of gray through their rose-colored glasses.

  Translation: I see the world in a simplified black-and-white, write-and-wrong version, and so should everyone (despite the fact that reality doesn’t quite line up that way).

  MF wrote:

  we live in such a P.C. country that allows this to happen. well, no one is saying that this person does not have the right to fly the flag upside down – they most certainly seem to have that right under the Constitution. however, the person is clearly in the wrong.

  Translation: I pay lip service to freedom of speech, and I know it’s part of the bedrock of America, but I sure don’t like it.

  MF wrote:

  only a loser…

  Translation: This person is a dummy-dum poo head!

  MF wrote:

  … would choose to lose in a country that they don’t like and be ungrateful for the gift they’ve been given of living in America where they, again, do have the right to be a jackass. people died for their rights to be a jackass, and they spit on the grave of those people with their actions.

  Translation: Melodrama is my friend!

  MF wrote:

  worse yet, when they are accepting hand-outs because they cannot afford or choose not to afford to pay for their own housing, they’re doubly in the wrong.

  Translation: God, I hate poor people!!

  MF wrote:

  that’s ok though, because karma dictates that they’ll get theirs. good always prevails.

  Translation: Won’t you come join me and share in my delusions of grandeur?
