Also, I said my say, and everybody had their say about that, and then I had my say about that, and it looks like we're done. If we're not we can come back here and bitch at each other some more. But I suspect I made my point.

Gentlemen, please keep them in your pants, until you get to your hotel room... or perhaps the NSFW forum.
What I've found with a few discussions I've had lately is this self-satisfaction that people express with their proffessed open mindedness. In realty it ammounts to wilful ignorance and intellectual cowardice as they are choosing to not form any sort of opinion on a particular topic. Basically "I don't know and I'm not going to look at any evidence because I'm quite happy on this fence."

No worries, the only point of contention I'm going to raise from this post is your choice of cheez over bacon. Is it not written "blessed are the baconites, for they shall inherit the earth*"

We were leaving you alone. In fact, I'd completely forgotten that you ever existed, right up until you dropped back in and started in with the bombast and hyperbole. Then your pomposity and puffery became a legitimate target for ridicule...again.

If you want to be left alone, then just exercise some index finger control and permanently press the "logout" button and never show your face around here again. You will be quickly forgotten...again, and you'll get your wish.

But as long as you insist on playing the pompous ass, I suspect you're going to be treated as such.

And, if you want to hang around, then act like an adult and you'll be treated like one.

I see that Seth has spotted a threat: if Schneibster starts getting along and is generally accepted (which now seems quite likely :tup: ), Seth's debating will require more energy and commitment, compared to without Schneib.

Tough shit - attempting to run someone off the forum by e.g. excessively goading them is covered by the rules, under "harassment".

Just pointing that out. Now carry on curmudgeoning (though nicely, please).

Is that considered nice? ;)

I'm practicing my curmudgeoning...now that I'm officially a member of AARP I figure I better get some practice. :mrgreen:

Er, I was making a very friendly suggestion about how he could achieve his desired goal of being "left alone."

I was also pointing out that he's acting like a pompous ass, not that he is one. That's not "goading," it's stating fact, as I have been told oh so many times when I was being goaded...er told "facts" by a good many other members here. I manage to suck it up, so should he. So should you.

And, your "threat assessment" is entirely fucked because I'd welcome more high-level rational debate. But that's not occurring here (although I'm seeing signs of it in other threads), what's occurring here is pompous bombast by Da Schneib, and I have no compunctions about pointing that out.
