DAVID RUFFIN 1 Posted November 5, 2010 IMMensaMind, I'm all for seeing new blood arrive here, I also like hearing new points of view but damn dude take a breath once in awhile. You don't have to challenge every poster here that might have a different slant on topics. You cut & paste more then Posty. You come across as having a self esteem issues. I'm very intelligent, I have a perfect body etc. Anyone that feels the need to point these things out has self acceptance problems. You are trying to be the big toad in this little pond in the shortest amount of time. I've noticed a few posters have already expressed their thoughts on this matter. This is The Geek Club where everyone has opinions and they may not be in line with yours. You come across as obnoxious and condescending. I've had students display your arrogance and they sit alone at the lunch tables. All I'm saying is take it down a notch and your opinions will be considered for their merit.

DanXIII 8 Posted November 5, 2010 Actually taking the time to create a thread to "admonish" a person who is obnoxious and condescending on an internet message board. Instead of just ignoring them. This. It's obvious you've been affected deeply if you would go to the trouble to dedicate a thread to someone. Send them a PM if you want to talk to them about stuff like this (assuming this can be done here). Otherwise you come across looking toolbaggerish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IMMensaMind 460 Posted November 5, 2010 You're not really civil or polite to anyone on the left. You throw generalization insults at anyone who is on the left. Not everyone on the left has insulted you. This is incorrect. You find me a post where I insulted a leftist who did not insult me first, and then I'll retract. If you cannot, then you retract. Some just countered your point. There are those - and they received a counter-point. However, my challenge to you stands - or are you the type that hopes you're not called on this sort of claim? Yes: I'm goading you in to putting your money where your mouth is, and yes: I understand that will require you to wade through a number of posts. You'll have to wade through all of them, in fact. Everyone to whom I've directed insult had first insulted me, and not reverted to another mode of communication. Not one. Had they, they would not receive return fire, just as you are not now. You threw a fit when i labeled Angle a nut yet in another post you labeled Harry Reid a jackass and a clown. If by "threw a fit" you mean actually countered the claim by saying why she's not a nut, but simply holds positions with which you take issue. You're right. Because I didn't "throw a fit" in the manner you're attempting to claim. I very rationally pointed out the reasonable basis upon which her positions emanate. You didn't like that, and then you launched into insults. The problem with you pansy liberals is that you cannot take disagreement about your positions as anything but a personal attack, and once you see those - and interpret them as personal attacks, you simply launch a real personal attack. You have no sense of the difference between terse language directed at someone, and a true personal attack/ad hominem. You're hypocrite whiners. Even this last point would never be made to you unless you had first chosen to insult and attack rather than reason out a position. then you try to somehow squirm out of it and say its somehow different. You should look up recliner pilots posts. He had the same views as you and couldn't argue without using 2nd grade language. ...hm. I don't need to squirm out of anything here. I explained to you that calling Harry Reid a jackass and a clown - a pejorative with which no one disagrees, is different than calling someone "nuts". That pejorative is specifically levelled more at that candidate's supporters, than anyone else - as MDC proved by attempting to attach Angle's "nuts" views with anyone who would support her. Unlike your claim about RP, I employ higher level language - because I can - you reacted to it exactly the same way. That means that it doesn't matter what the Conservatives say, or how they say it, your side will react the same way. The problem is with you, and your side. RP simply reverted to insults and quid pro quo far more quickly than I did. I went so far over the top as to breathe live into the caricature you attempt to collectively make of me, in order to make a point. The ridiculous is illustrated by being ridiculous. It works extremely well. What's humorous about it is what exactly you think are the ridiculous aspects of how I was ridiculous. What I've told you about who I am and what I've done is utterly and completely 100% true - but that's such a large part of what you think is ridiculous! The only truly ridiculous thing about my caricaturing here is the extent to which I pushed you and yours. That was on purpose. When you make a generalization that the leftists on this bored just argue with insults and the right is rational you are WRONG. Where have I claimed the description of rational to everyone here who posts from the "right"? You're extrapolating again, and drawing false conclusiong that you believe you can defeat argumentatively. What I said is that I was arguing rationally. I very carefully argued rationally exclusively, and all it got me was a collection of ad hominems. These people knew that they were the ones throwing the insults first, because they didn't give as an excuse, you've insulted me, so I'm insulting you back - nope. They said that I'm posting "arrogantly" and "condescendingly". Which proves my assertion: the liberals with which I have been speaking simply cannot abide a criticism of their positions without taking it personally, and considering it an insult. This is something that many on the right have known for a long time. The fact is that even that observation isn't suffucient here, because I actually don't mind insults being thrown around: what I mind, is insults being thrown around first and exclusively. There is just no where to go from there - which is exactly why that tactic is employed. It prevents their position from being further exposed as flawed. I ask you again to consider this post. You may disagree with the sentiments expressed herein; but there is no insult here. There is a statement of my opinion. Your reaction to what you read, though, is emotional, and because of that emotion - negative emotion, which is a corollary to dislike/hatred, you believe that these statements are insulting - and as such, the impulse is to fire an insult. You can disagree, and I can disagree, but at least we're not tossing around insults. That stuff washes over me as off a duck's back. The second the rudest poster responds to a point I've made with some substance, and without using insult, they will never receive insult from me in return. Everyone argues with insults here. Its part of the culture here. If you don't like it, you should visit footballguys.com. No, this is a cop-out. As I've said - arguing with insults, and arguing exclusively using insults, are two different things. The latter is intellectually lazy, and useless. I have been called focktard, deranged, and medstoopid for making predictions that ended up being right. Sure - but how do you have a conversation with someone who only does that? If you want to argue your points fine. Now we're getting somewhere! just realize some people are going to hurl insults at you and ask how big your wife's cans are. You need to grow some thicker skin or get out. I'm not trying to be confrontational or condescending or trying to get you to leave, just trying to let you know what this bored has evolved into. These insults have evolved in a non-partisan way and both sides sling them. Give me more credit than that - I'm sure that whatever things you've decided about me, deciding I'm stupid isn't one of them. I'm damned insightful; I make my living at that, in fact. Asking the size of my wife's cans, etc isn't to be considered the same league as some of the nasty insults about my positions which are launched to chill conversation, not spice it up. I think you presented your case extremely rationally, and I don't mind calling you a wh0re bi0tch right now. lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
