So can flaming, at least boobs are more satisfactory than watching Helpmann vs SM for four pages.

*sigh* makes me wish Ben Langher was here, his avatars would mellow us all out.

As true as that is, flaming can get interesting very quickly again. It's just that Sombrero Minds' argumentative techniques aren't up to standard, that's why their boring.

Does liking pictures of breasts mean that one can't be smart? Of course not. Does tolerating them, even liking them, at a time and in a place where they're completely out of context and meant to do nothing more than distract from the discussion at hand mean that one isn't smart? One wonders.

I think that Underwater Ophelia, MollyMac, Des, and any others who engaged in that kind of shit were being pathetic. Either make your points and contribute to the argument, or shut the fuck up. Spamming a thread with titshots is something a fucking half-wit would do.

You mean that it wasn't injected into threads that were along the lines of "$hade is an emo nip" and other troll threads?!

I didn't say anything about Helpmann's behavior. My post was about the little cadre of spammers and their titshot barrage. Don't confuse the two, and don't try to justify what UO, MollyMac, Des, and others did by whining that Helpmann started it.

Seeing as they did it in troll threads created by Helpmann and co, I don't see how the two are not intertwined.

So MM, Des, UO and co. are given license to act like dipshits because someone else did it first? Riiiight. The next time they try to take the moral high ground, you just think about a nice fat pair of tits. It seems like that's all it takes to blind you to uncomfortable notions about hypocrisy.

I'm saying its far more entertaining than the stupid flame wars that go on. And I suppose you can say "Ignore the flame wars," but then I can say "Ignore the tits."

You can't just call us dumb and make it so. Even our most esteemed detractors have conceded that we are intelligent people. His claim that he doesn't make conversation with us because we're 'dumb people' is an empty claim.

The fact of the matter is that he can't make any true insults towards us other than that he thinks we're 'stupid'. He has no strong ammunition against us. So he resorts to posting tits.

And yes EVERYBODY LOVES TITS. Something is wrong with you if you don't. That is exactly what makes it bottom feeding spam. If you want to look at tits just google the damn word. Posting images of them here serves no purpose other than to derail, spam but ultimately bump out threads.

That's your defense? It's more entertaining? Go watch some fucking porn if you want to be entertained by naked women.

The fact of the matter is that the people who posted titshots were acting in the same irritating, juvenile fashion as the people they claim to deplore. FUCKING. HYPOCRITES.

Why are you getting your panties all in a twist because some people posted something entertaining, yet useless in a boring useless troll thread?

Even though the gears had come grinding to a halt and the engine had died, the conductor continued to blow his whistle, to make sure everyone got out of the way.

Likewise, Saya has nowhere left to go and will fall back again and again into 'I was just fucking around' territory because she has no more points to make. She will repeat herself over and over again, going nowhere, ignoring the many logical comments against her backwards thinking.

You can pretty much expect the following from her at this point on.

"Boring useless trolls boobs you don't like boobs better than useless trolls LALALA useless trolls blahblahblah boobs boobs boobs fuh fuh fuh useless boring trolls boring boobs boring useless bladabladabladaBoring useless trolls boobs you don't like boobs better than useless trolls LALALA useless trolls blahblahblah boobs boobs boobs fuh fuh fuh useless boring trolls boring boobs boring useless bladabladabladaBoring useless trolls boobs you don't like boobs better than useless trolls LALALA useless trolls blahblahblah boobs boobs boobs fuh fuh fuh useless boring trolls boring boobs boring useless bladabladablada."

First, don't hide behind affected disinterestedness. It's the last-ditch effort of someone with nothing to say that wants to keep on talking. We both know that if you actually had a serviceable retort you'd be using it, so this sort of crap is just that: crap.

Second, it's quite obviously not the pictures that I'm irritated by, but rather the people that posted said pictures.

Des started this thread, one dedicated to knocking Helpmann and calling him a "massively unoriginal internet troll", yet he posts titshots as a means of derailing other threads. MollyMac and UnderwaterOphelia, both infatuated with themselves and their own intellects, did the same. When challenged by other members, they all responded by saying "relax, don't take this so seriously!". If they didn't want to take Helpmann and co.'s belligerence and incendiary remarks seriously, then they shouldn't have responded at all.

If I recall, UO even went so far as to make a thread polling gnet members about whether they think she or Ra is hotter. Does that sound like she isn't taking things so seriously? That's an awful lot of effort to put into something that she doesn't care about, much like repeatedly posting pictures of tits in an attempt to smoke out a thread.

It seems very simple to me.

He had you on ignore. He can see that you made threads and he can see where you make posts. But he cannot read what you wrote...

...unless someone quoted you.

He said in the opening post that what he saw in the Workers Occupy Republic Factory in Chicago inspired him to take a further look at your other posts of grandeur.

In other words, he saw what you typed in Jillian's quote of you. Then he took you off of ignore. To google your little diatribes.

And i believe what he's saying now is that you are back on ignore.

So what gives? Are you displaying intentional idiocy? Or is it genuine?
Read the thread. Gillian quoted his entire post, and Saya noticed it right before I did.

Do you not read this stuff before you post?

He's making a fine point still. If all posts of helpmann are so worthless why'd you bother taking him off of ignore. It just proves that you have no real ammo. If you did, you'd take him off ignore and use it.

That makes no sense.
"If he did have ammo, he'd take Helpmann off ignore and use it"

That's precisely what he did.


Next lesson:

You misquoted me.

That's what I'm saying. It's his MO. He took this long to find something and it failed. Nobody cared. So back on ignore we all go until he finds something else.

I hate that 'argument'
However that was about stupid counter-trolling. Not so much about copypasta.

Who gives a fuck if I threw copypasta in your direction? Before even sensing it was pasta you delved in, like an angry teenager who just finished "Das Kapitol" and proceeded to attack the truisms of that post with the vain tennacity of a miserable idealist.

Someone had to point it out to you that it was pasta. Don't get butthurt now with the rest of the morons that we tricked you all for so long with historical quotes (all of which were so obvious that it is hardly surprising that none of you, as the products of state education, were incapable of recognizing them).

And this idea being handed around that we have no "original ideas" is cheap considering you get all your ideas from numerous left wing intellectuals.

You do not have an original thought no more than anyone else, and it is towering arrogance to assume you can compete with the intellectual greats of the past.

When you're published and can point in the direction of your "original" ideas you can then point the finger at us for lack of "originality".

(my emphasis)

Just out of curiosity, what sort of curriculum did you have at the Royal Academy for Dramatic Art? You did say you attended RADA, correct?
