Once upon a time, I seduced a beauteous lady of arts and letters with a running erotic joke about commas, interspersed with intercourse on Byron. Thence ensued a story more appropriate for /u/GirlsGoneBitcoin than here, wherein she confirmed my reputation as “mad, bad, and dangerous to know”. Thus, I do understand why you’re jealous of my way with words; you should be.
Discourse, you fucking cretin, DISCOURSE.
The rest of it makes no sense either.
You're not one half as clever as you wish everybody thinks you should be.
Idiot.
I'm actually hating that this thread is still going.
And your opinion matters, because...?
It matters precisely as much as your opinion, which is not at all. Don't go thinking that you're some kind of insightful sage. You're not. You're an imbecile.
I'm actually hating that this thread is still going. But that's my issue. I've quoted a post by a person I don't like much. This isn't secret.
Shame on you for cherry-picking a quote, and leveraging that to take a holier-than-thou attitude toward someone who has freely given extraordinary amounts of time to helping newbies, squashing predatory scammers, and fighting spam. I don’t wonder why your reply picked on that, instead of this:
Oh, I feel dreadfully ashamed. In fact, I've decided to become a monk, out of pure shame.
No, wait.
What I meant is this...
I have helped thousands of users here over the years (etc)
Who? Give me just 5 examples, nullius? Just those.
Ones WITHOUT Lauda being an insufferably arrogant prick about it. Go for it.
Do you seriously think that response had anything useful in it? A little "intercourse" (DISCOURSE YOU PRICK) about your own stats?
You know, when I masturbate, I do it honestly.
Disgusting attitude.
Yours is. Moreover, the whole notion of “empathy” is disgusting. It is nothing more than an emotional blank cheque demanded by the weak and incompetent on those who are not so. It is the distilled essence of the
Sklavenmoral. But as all such things, it is a poison which acts only against those who choose to drink it. Repudiate the concept, and it is as powerless as its preachers.
Let's fuck some weird Neitzschie foolishness in there as well, so that the easily-intimidated will back off in the face of your overpowering intellectualism.
It's amazing that you have chosen not to display it here, though.
Maybe that's another philosophical ideal? Probably has a word too. Arsebuiscuitism? Tosserology? Fuck it, you pick one.
I work in a position where I am responsible for looking after 20 direct reports, who in turn look after a chain of over 500 indirect reports. I rely on these people to empathise with our customers and drive promotion. If I were to adopt this frankly ridiculous position, the company I represent could never have grown.
Nice boast, as a setup for an air of superiority. But you must be new to the Internet, if you presume that others will do other than take that a grain of salt. Maybe you’re telling the truth; maybe you’re not. I don’t care, either way. You will never know who I am. In either case, publicly visible actions hold more weight than mere stories.
Now, you’ve popped up in this thread with rude pretension, unjustifiable contempt, and imperious demands unmatched by your ability to argue a point, much less enforce yours on anybody. What it boils down to is more whining: So, you’re “actually hating that this thread is still going”. That’s amusing enough, but also mildly irritating. Shoo. If you so hate this, then I think we can agree (or at least concur) that you shouldn’t stick around here.
I owe others a reply upthread (including squatter’s well-thought response; fancy that, a desire for quantitative data with a sample size greater than one). Have not forgotten. TODO. Meanwhile, I intend to fulfill my promises to anybody who brought popcorn.
What I wrote was the truth. I don't need to set myself up to feel superior to you. The reality is that you are just giving that to people, with your smug and arrogant mode of non-argument.
In summary....
I don't know who robbed the jam out of your donut, but it's clear that you are so dreadfully butthurt by the entire planet, that a donut is exactly what you need to soothe your chapped arse.
Want to play more word games?
EDIT: Just to let you know, I'm off to bed now. This means you have 5-6 hours to get your rage good and hot. Make sure you pick pertinent quotes, now, and if you need any more pseudo-philosophical theories to throw around (with associated almost-german words), here's a link:
