This thread looks like loads of fun. So much butthurt in such a small space. But I guess that's in the very fundamental nature of butthurt.

Yes. It's almost like a black hole or something.

If you'll pardon the unfortunate analogy.

I find it funny that there is more butthurt over the supposed "butthurt" than there is in the original "butthurt" - Cito was just there having a cry over how I include gifs in my post and he doesn't like them! The meta-butthurtists are here to stay, it seems.

[Beatsong]

Incidentally Mr Samsa - I was going to let this go once, twice, three times or however many it was. But since your butthurt is clearly so strong that you're not going to let go of the whole thing until it's forcibly extracted from your sphincter:

Can you provide an example of me jerking someone off please? I'd like to see what that looks like.

The thread mentioned above is a good example of it! You popped into the thread to defend Beatsong's assertion that The Guardian is a feminist publication

I never made that assertion.

and that I was being dishonest by not accepting that all journalists who write for it are feminists.

Nor that one.

You're lying.

[Paula1]

Do you have any idea of what a tit you're making of yourself Samsa?

No one, apart from rEv, and he has his own sore arse, actually gives a fuck.

You, by all accounts, used to be quite a sound bloke. You're now acting like a petulant child who's absolutely crap at accepting he's being an arse. It's only the internet, get the fuck over yourself.

How am I being a tit? I respond respectfully to other people on the forum and I put time into making substantive posts - in response I get more personal attacks and off-topic inflammatory marks from shitheads like you who have no interest in discussing the topic but instead just want to attack me.

Attack you?

Perspective Samsa, really

I'm being an arse? Take a look in the mirror. Do you remember when you joined in with the others to argue that I was being "difficult" because I wouldn't accept that every journalist who writes for The Guardian was a feminist? That's what an arse looks like.

Do you want to add a 'Nanananana ' to that or are you happy with how it is?

Can you clarify this bit for me rEv

No offence, Paula, but I haven't seen you produce one rational counter argument to any of these contentious topics. If you want to wind up a Scot Dutchy or a KennyC, then continue on your merry way.

Which contentious topics?

Have a look at that feminism/evo psych thread where you dropped in to make off-topic inflammatory remarks about me. What points did you make at all on the topic of feminism, evo psych, or the interaction of the two? Precisely zero.

You mean the same thread you're talking about above? Just in case anyone thinks I'm stalking you over the forum to "attack" you. I'm sure you wouldn't want anyone getting that impression would you?

What contentious topics? The ones Samsa gets in eternal arguments with other people in.

The only arguments I've had with Samsa are when he, and others, start spouting shite about feminism and what it's like to be a 'woman'. You can disregard my opinions in this regard in the very same way as Samsa does, it doesn't mean my opinions aren't valid though. Have you read some of the shit from the feminism threads and the A+ thread? I consistently said 'Don't speak for me, just because I have a vagina I don't necessarily share your view'.

Ah yes, the problem clearly was that I was trying to speak for all women and ignoring your view. Not that that ever happened, and the closest thing would have been where I pointed out that just because you don't find something personally problematic to you it doesn't mean that other women don't like it.

I'm pretty sure that's exactly how you see it, other opinions may vary. That's your main problem, other opinions, so it's kind of pointless arguing the point with you.

What is irrational or sniping about that?

What about when you and some of the other mods harassed me for months on the thread and in PMs by accusing me of being mentally ill? That was pretty shit, I thought.

That is an utter lie. I'm not a mod, never have been so 'other' seems a bit misleading. I have never PM'ed you. I have never commented on your mental state, nor would I. Why are you lying? I can see how making me look like a cunt is beneficial to you but that's low.

Samsa doesn't like people disagreeing with him,

Bullshit and you know it. You're clutching at straws here.

fuck, I even stuck up for him when the twats on A+ were treating him like shit, but even that was wrong. He treated me with nothing but contempt from our first real interaction. I have no idea why. He'd tell you it was because I was wrong.

Not quite, Paula, it's more because you and others were engaging in quite abusive behavior towards me and then when I made the mildest of possible comments towards you (that you were "intentionally being ignorant" of a particular topic, where you were claiming a woman shouldn't have felt intimidated by a guy following her because you wouldn't have) you flew off the handle at me, despite there being no personal attack or breaking of the rules with that comment.

What form did this "flying off the handle" take?

Perspective again Samsa, such a delicate flower should be more aware of his own actions.

It was funny to see Paula try to accuse me of reporting her posts in that thread as every time she did, I'd check my inbox and I'd have another comment saying: "What the fuck is wrong with Paula in that thread?!".

Really, that quite innocuous couple of posts really made lots of people PM you? How many?

I find it therapeutic in a homeopathic way. In really, really, really, really small doses.

Do you have any idea of what a tit you're making of yourself Samsa?

No one, apart from rEv, and he has his own sore arse, actually gives a fuck.

Apparently you do else why bother to enter this thread and make that statement? Do you not recognize that making the effort to post a retarded comment like "No one....actually gives a fuck." you contradict the point you are trying to make and are the example of what you criticise?

You, by all accounts, used to be quite a sound bloke. You're now acting like a petulant child who's absolutely crap at accepting he's being an arse. It's only the internet, get the fuck over yourself.

How about you fuck off back to ratskep and continue your campaign of attention whoring? You have fans there don't you? Don't waste your rubes, they might switch interest to somebody else.

[Gallstones]

Is there some app that notifies ratskep people whenever anyone mentions their screen name on another site? Cause it seems like they arrive in short order all full of defensive passion. It's like they know.

IMO opinion their error is in giving a fuck, that is where they are vulnerable like rabbits to coyotes. Too easy.

[Gallstones]

Link to that? Not that i'd ever doubt your word.

Why would I give a literal shit what you think about anything?

Really? It was just because he was a self-declared paedophile was it? There were no inappropriate jokes about other member's kids? There was no abuse apologetics?

Come on SD, don't you join in the whine-fest

Don't confuse post-hoc rationalisations for reasons.

There is a clear pathway for problem members involving escalating warnings and suspensions.

There was nothing to justify the step from zero to permaban.

Anyone who doesn't see this is in denial or retarded.

Therapeutic for me. I've had a miserable few days and this shit keeps cheering me up no end.
