A void has been filled: ladies and gentleman, Aldebaran!

I don’t open many Pit threads, but I wanted to be the first one to do so here.

It’s been a long time since we’ve had a lunatic, left-wing nutcase frothing at the mouth and embarrassing legitimate left-wingers and giving lunatic, right-wing nutcases tons of strawmen to knock down since Chumpsky left. But a new era has arisen on the SDMB!

Ladies and gentlemen, the next great entertainer on the boards -

ALDEBARAN!!!

May the hamsters bless and keep him.

That didn’t take long. I was actually thinking about Pitting him, but he won’t be needing my help to melt down. I think he’s perfectly capable of doing it all himself.

I have to admit his posts seem to read like a parody of Osama bin Laden, except with a little less “Godless infidels” and a little more “criminal invaders”. Chill pills will be handed out at the door, Alde honey, along with “Toning Down the Rhetoric in Ten Easy Steps”.

Good lord. There’s a reason I stay out of GD. Colonizing! Are there ships o’ honkeys just floating over to Basra?

Wow.

To tell the truth, I’ve come to sorta miss the Chumpster’s cementheaded attempts to turn every issue into a wrestling match between the plutocrats and the proles. Maybe this version will learn a thing or two before the inevitable meltdown occurs, maybe not, but looks like some quality entertainment ahead.

There are always two, a master and an apprentice. The Master still lurks out there somewhere…

Huh. I actually agree with some of Aldebaran’s points in the second thread, but the attitude is obnoxious in the extreme. He (?) is so certain that all Americans are provincial, stupid, and unworldly. None of us have ever studied a second language.

Hold on a second, I’ve got some hayseed in my hair.

Okay, I’m back now. What was I saying again?

Oh, right. I are stoopid Murkin.

Well, he’s not the stoopidest man of the Universe.

I thought the stoopid guy was a porn spammer at first.

If Aldebaran and december post in the same thread, will they mutually annihilate each other?

Oh God! He’s horrible!

I especially had to cringe when he got all hoity-toity with mangetout and busted out the French, like we were all going to go “Ooh, he’s multilingual! We must be dealing with somebody really smart here!” And then he followed up with a post correcting his French diction, offering the excuse that he’s dyslexic? What a dork!

I give him low marks. Even for a you-know-what.

Oooh! Science fair time!

Eum, people would you be so kind to write in simple English out of compassion with the illiterate?
The Americans among you surely know that all non Americans are stupid and that at the very least 99% of the non American world is illiterate, no?

Yes you do.

And before you put my name here in the same sentence with an other one, can someone explane who this “december” might be?

Now I have an amusing game for you:

Where the hell does Aldebaran comes from.

I’ll see you tomorrow. I have to get some sleep. We live in a very different time zone but: I don’t say what time it is overhere. (You can find a hint about that in one of my posts of today.)
Please post a lot because I’m going to have much fun reading it. Thank you.

I feel at once very welcomed here.

Aldebaran.

Well, when a mommy Aldebaran and a daddy Aldebaran love each other very much …

Seriously, though. You’re not a beacon of enlightenment unto the world. I realise how charming and appealing it is to rush into a community waving your arms and shouting about how everyone is mindless warmongering sheep, you’re really not telling us anything that people haven’t been discussing on this board for years.

Of course, the implication that we’re just followers is somewhat amusing, given the Arabic source of your username.

You may be a rather intelligent person in your own right, but this board has one or two intelligent people on it already. Not that you’re not welcome, but that you may want to present your arguments a little better. Why not try lurking for a while, reading various Great Debates, seeing how things work? There’s no reason for you to get on everyone’s bad side right from the start.

You’re not because it’s obvious you refuse to learn anything.

Sorry to disappoint you in your knowledge of Arabic and Arabic names, but Aldebaran is the name of a star.

And may I ask you how one can become introduced on a message board if it is not by starting to post?

?

As an invisible ghost?

Well, we are only allowed one membername here and I have made mine, so I can’t come on under “Ghost”.

And I don’t “get on everyone” or whatever you mean there. I write. I have my particular style. Like you all do. People get used to eachother on message boards like this.

And who is talking here about being “intelligent” or not?

I’m sorry, I don’t quite follow that one.
Now I’m off… I’m going to see if I find my way to my bedroom…

mmmmmm…Do we have electricity where I live or not???
Aldebaran.

What, you think it can’t be both? Aldebaran is the Arabic name of a star.

Want to bet the thing under the bridge is still watching?

Boy, if that isn’t being hoisted by your own petard.

Aldebaran is a double star in the constellation Taurus. Yup, that’s right. Where does the name Aldebaran come from, though?

From al-dabarn, “the follower”, because the star appears to follow the Pleiades in the sky.

Sorry to disappoint you in your attempt to achieve a smug superiority. I reiterate my previous comment about followers. Pot, kettle, you know the rest.

No I don’t now the rest. But you still don’t now a thing about me :slight_smile:
