            if i hadnt already posted it 3 years ago, i would click.

            btw,

            this whole thread started on the idea nobody figured out that my responses one day were all triggered by which ever advertisement was up when I clicked into the add comment area.

            So whatever i said on one particular day was randomly dictated by tribe adverts.


            everything from the muslim girl going to hell to that bit about taking a Burner by the ankles and beating all the other burners to death were all triggered by adverts.

                  Threatened??? I wouldn't have thought you would have instantly jumped to that.
                  I just felt it was wrong for you to get your jollies off another person who was
                  obviously in pain. I don't think I am wrong. That is generally a sick attitude,
                  and it speaks to your character. Like I could give a shit about actually threatening
                  you physically, in any way, and you know it. I've got bigger fish to fry.

                  The very fact that you think I am threatening you physically shows just how little
                  you understand. I really just didn't like you being such an ass when I was just
                  trying to show Orpheus some support. What kind of vampire acts that way?

              Granted, I've contextualized about tribe ads
              before. It's not that I dislike your humor.
              It's just that sometimes you go way too far.
              If you so certainly express sneering hatred
              toward so many groups, why are we to suppose
              you are here to do anything but hate on the
              collective us? If you want someone to argue with,
              you couldn't have run into a better opponent
              on the street. Try to say even the smallest thing
              that redeems you as a human being, especially
              since you are an faceless alt. Otherwise, en garde!

                    i love this mode of trolling. no matter how old the "challenge your creds", "you bore me" method is tried and failed (over and over again) , there is always some minor league player that comes along and acts as if they have the method to "bring down" or "shame" someone into a behaviour pattern.

                                Incidentally, I once knew a guy who tested out this theory by writing a computer program that was a random letter generator. This was waaaay back in the early '80s, before most people were doing stuff with computers.

                                Eventually, the program really did start forming sentences. Eventually, so he claims, it started forming extremely coherent sentences, which he and his equally peculiar girlfriend began to believe were spirit communications. So they started leaving offerings for the spirits, asking them specific questions, and getting eerily precise answers.

                                Eventually, the two of them stopped leaving their apartment, and spent their whole time eking out prophecies from all this randomness.

                                    They didn't make any money for awhile, as the never leaving your apartment thing (this was mostly before the internet) kind of impeded. He managed to support them both though, by knowing more about how to work computers than most other people.

                                  Do you have any of the predictions or advice the computers gave them?

                                  If this can occur so quickly with such weak computers, what does that mean
                                  for today's technologies? If I told you all the weird messages...

                                  I have been hearing this weird beeping, first it came from the computer speakers,
                                  like to tell me to turn them off when they were not in use, then it started to come
                                  from other avenues... it overlays whatever else is being listened to. Just a few days
                                  ago, I was with my mother here in OK (I'm doing tile and other renovations to her
                                  condo) driving in her car and there is was again, same metronomic beeps, coming
                                  from her car stereo over NPR! Very strange.

                                  I've been a skeptic for most of my life. But things changed some time ago.

                                      Sadly, and perhaps unsurprisingly, no traces remain of their experiments. iirc, he said it started to freak him out so he destroyed the paper printouts, broke up with the girl, and got on with his life. The spirits identified themselves as Gurdjieff, Archimedes, and I forget the other two just at the moment.

                                      The only faint evidence I still have is this gob of what looks like a dribble of dropped food that he swore was congealed ectoplasm.

                        Sorry gals, I just thought StJman might not be the 'kick 'em while they're down' type.
                        No more fuss from me. If the situation were reversed, if Orpheus were him (I can almost
                        hear O cursing right now) and he was Orpheus, would Orpheus as Jman be stomping
                        pitilessly on his bruised heart? I think we all can agree O may go overboard in telling
                        us how hopeless he feels most of the time, but that is no reason to make him feel worse.

                                  Not at all. St. Jman is amusing. He's at the peak of his wizardly powers when people take umbrage with his shenanigans, Wormhole Charley.

                                    You know I lack concern for it even more than he does.
                                    I agree he is somewhat amusing. Just not very versatile.

                                      You've been on tribe 6 whole months.
                                      You don't have any idea who the Saint even is.

                                      He never even comes around anymore, but when he does, he picks out the biggest assclowns on the block to bugger.
