posted on March 12, 2005 09:58:06 AM newI have to laugh, Crowfarm started this thread intending it to be a Classic roast but it has backfired on her and it is now a Crowfarm roast. She can't even do a roast right, LOL. Roast on.
I've been laughing right along with you, at cf's and maggies posts.
But cf is getting the attention he/she seeks none-the-less. And that's what I believe these continual auction complaints are really all about.
We have cf the verbal abuser and maggie the enabler and who just don't have the ability to HEAR what's being said about the manner of cf's posts. Some things never change.

Other usernet sites have the same problem. And here is how they are described/summed up on one site. I think it clearly represents the actions of cf on this board:
We're talking about regular persistent twits who insist on replying to an inordinate number of articles with inane, stupid, insulting and/or obnoxious comments, over and over again. They never add anything constructive to the conversation, nor do they ever seem to tire of the attention they get by stirring up trouble.
Their hateful messages attack everyone and are full of the same insults, name calling, character assassination and lies, over and over again. Because they crave attention, any response to them generates even more bile. And they are relentless - one twit who has infested alt.smokers for years has made over four thousand posts to the news group, and none anywhere else. Each post is nearly identical, along the lines of "You are all a bunch of junkies jonzing for your fix! Go smoke by the dumpster you stupid junkies. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Although most twits are a little more coherent than that, attempting to debate them is a waste of time. They say their piece, you respond, and they completely ignore you and repeat themselves. Back them into a corner and they change the subject. Challenge them to back up their allegations and they pretend they didn't hear you.
Dumping these creatures into your kill file (a.k.a. twit filter) helps, but only a little. [similar to our ignore feature] When other people respond to them, and follow good netiquette by including the twits article in their reply, you're once again exposed to the hateful spew.
People who haven't had to put up with persistent nasty twits say "why not just ignore them." That's good advice except for one thing: human nature. When someone attacks you, even if it's just a verbal attack, the natural response is to defend yourself. If you do walk away, the twit follows you, yelling louder and louder until, despite your best efforts to refrain, you strike back, giving the twit what they want.
Most of us are not Gandhi. In fact, if Gandhi had been on line he would have gone after some of these characters with a ballpeen hammer.

linduh, once more on the insult attack says, "Back them into a corner and they change the subject. Challenge them to back up their allegations and they pretend they didn't hear you. ""
linduh this really does apply so aptly to YOU.
But , of course, you wouldn't recognize yourself because you have such a distorted view of yourself.
Then you say, """We're talking about regular persistent twits who insist on replying to an inordinate number of articles with inane, stupid, insulting and/or obnoxious comments, over and over again. They never add anything constructive to the conversation, nor do they ever seem to tire of the attention they get by stirring up trouble."""
How many posts are YOU going to contribute to THIS thread.
Why didn't you dig this up for the likes of your Twelve ? Or yellowstone, or libra....applies so much to them.......
Again, since you and a few others are unable to use logic in your thinking....do YOU post here hoping to get a reply (attention) or do you post in here so you will be ignored ?????
How many posts have you been in which are nothing but "you said" /"I said" on and on and on.....?????
""""Most of us are not Gandhi. In fact, if Gandhi had been on line he would have gone after some of these characters with a ballpeen hammer.""""
Gandhi would've tortured you to death.
Now, take off the self-righteous halo......I can see right past it to that rotted soul of yours.

Yes I believe I have heard it before, didn't this famous line first appear in a discussion between Albert Einstein and Ludwig Gustav during a debate on theories of relativity.
posted on March 13, 2005 09:44:02 AM new
Did I just hear recently that in fact it was Einstein's wife who actually came up with the theory of relativity... or was it the wife of Sir Issac Newton, who discovered that gravity existed... and how about Leonardo Da Vinci's painting of the "Last Supper"...how many times have we looked at that painting and never noticed that one at the table was a woman...
(Mary Magdalene)

No, it was relative humidity that Einsteins wife discovered and I'll explain my theory of relative humidity if you really want me to.
Newtons wife did in fact discover gravity from throw dishes at him all the time. She noticed that the trajectory seemed to drop off as the dishes sailed across the room.
As far as Mary Magdalene being at the last supper, hey someone had to be there to serve the mashed potatoes and bread.

Couldn't agree with you more. I always thought the people in Texas weren't to bright. Bush only makes my belief stronger.
Absolute faith has been shown, consistently, to breed intolerance. And intolerance, history teaches us, again and again, begets violence.
---------------------------------- The duty of a patriot in this time and place is to ask questions, to demand answers, to understand where our nation is headed and why. If the answers you get do not suit you, or if they frighten you, or if they anger you, it is your duty as a patriot to dissent. Freedom does not begin with blind acceptance and with a flag. Freedom begins when you say 'No.'
