    Yeah.

    Memory failing you, too? Mine's not the best, but come on, you had

    You're not a fan of ugly guys, huh? Chippendales fan? You like the
    pretty boys? What are those boy bands? Got all their albums? heh

    No matter, of course. It's the way of the grade school mindset.

    I'm certain that you're unaware of the following, but that's where
    you're wrong, Johnny. MFW will never be anywhere close to a nirvana
    for the likes of you. You're oblivious to the fact that your
    personality will always keep nirvana juuuuust beyond your reach.
    There, I suspect, will always be *something* for you to complain
    about. Just a guess, but I'd say it's spot on. Enjoy your life.

    I will enjoy it. How about you? You're ugly in the extreme. You put
    tattoos all over your body to draw attention away from your ugliness.
    You then decide to go into an occupation that put you in a position of
    power over children. You get very defensive about posts where child
    molestation is mentioned. Hmmm, I think I see a profile here.

    Hey, did you miss the whole thread that JMW has been encouraging (or
    should that be ignoring)? The idea that you should killfile certain
    so-called trolls and troll-~*e n a b l e r s*~? Maybe you should
    browse through the posts again. Because you're running counter to ol'
    Jay M. Duuuuhbooya's suggestions.

    But, what about me? I'm doing well. Thanks for asking.

    You're ugly in the extreme. You put tattoos all over your body to

    Someone in another ng was just guessing at the motivation for tattoos.
    Not mine, but another ng patron. I doubt they were correct (but then I
    doubt that that individual was being serious re their guess). And I
    know you're not correct.

    1) They're not all over my body. I have three, but, yeah, I'd like to
    get more.

    2) They don't normally draw attention period as they're typically
    covered up - back, hip, calf.

    3) Plus - although I'm not what I would categorize as pretty - I'm
    nowhere near ugly. In fact, I think I closely resemble your buddy JMW,
    don't I? Doesn't Jay Em sport the shaved head and goatee? Regardless,
    I'm not interested in dating you, Johnny, so don't worry so much over
    my appearance, 'kay? Thank you!

    Did you say power OVER children? You haven't been in an inner-city
    classroom ever, have you, John? It's collaborative, it's cooperative,
    it's never - if it's truly to be considered successful - dictatorial.

    Quoted message said:

    Busted! You're right. Child molestation should never make people
    bristle.

    /sarcasm

    Idiot.

    That's nice. I see a pattern.

    More like a revolving door, actually.

    I haven't lived with my parents for more than two decades. I own a
    very nice house in a very nice neighborhood. You, OTOH, live in a two
    bit twin. BTW, your landlord is delinquent on his property taxes.

    It's telling how these 'normal people' seem to enjoy this exposure thing -
    like this is the ultimate weapon if they can dig something up about you.
    It's like "Look how clever I am - I've just spent an afternoon finding out
    your home address - and that's not all - I'm going to publish it - that'll
    teach ya!" As if we don't have enough info to do the same thing to them - I
    can't imagine why anyone would want to expose another poster's private info.
    What pleasure can it give them?

    Mebbe you yankee doodles have a different definition of common decency. Me,
    the only time I would try to hurt someone in that private way is if he did
    the same to me. Even if someone calls my mother a crack [censored] on usenet,
    that would not justify my publishing his private info.

    I live by the Golden Rule with the Capone Corollary. Do on to others
    as you would want them to do onto you. But, if someone breaks your
    arm, you break his leg. If he breaks your leg, you break his head.

    <sigh> Once again, the issue is why anyone would want to do that - to pry
    into someone's private life to 'expose' that person. You would have to be
    a
    cycle path to get any satisfaction from it - whether it takes a minute or
    an
    hour or a day is not the point.


    I'm more of an ATV trail than a cycle path.

    Too cold for that now right?


    Not at all. We had below zero weather a week ago (I had -12 on my
    truck thermometer on Sunday morning) but it's been in the 40s the last
    couple of days. Still, even -20 is fine for ATV riding. You just
    need to wear your snowmobile gear.

    Perhaps he deserves a serious answer to his question, John. But the
    best answer comes in the form of another question: Why do some people
    crave Usenet anonymity so much?

    His mentor once admitted the answer. They do it essentially to be
    malicious and dishonest without accountability. They would never say
    the nasty things they say, or tell the lies they tell, if they thought
    someone they know might connect it with them.

    Then why do people expose their identities? To make them nervous.
    Suddenly they see that their flimsy Usenet anonymity does not provide
    a bulletproof shield.

    However, to Curt's credit, he has never tried to conceal his identity
    or any personal information. He may be intentionally annoying and
    weird, but he doesn't hide. Nevertheless, his comment about you
    living with your mother was pretty stupid after the many times you've
    posted pics of your own home.

    An interesting rationalization if the facts fit the story. But they don't.
    Why did Dally recoil at having her real name and personal details published?
    What about all the nasty things she said and the lies? You are full of [censored]
    as usual.

    By the way, is this not responding to a 'troll enabler'? You don't even have
    the presence of mind to stick to your own rules? How many times have you
    broken the rules today? Great example you set. (But great that Om is doing
    so well!)
