Additional Straight Dope Forum Suggestion

[iampunha]

You know, Ace, when I first met you back in NYC in January of last uear, I thought to myself “This is one cool guy. And cool, he named himself after a powerful card!” I hadn’t yet seen a post of yours on the board, but I figured the posts would match the person.

And then I saw a post of yours and … I felt betrayed. I never thought the kind of bullshit you spewed not a month after (if memory serves) that fest could come from you. “Do I remember his name? Maybe it wasn’t spelled quite like that?” But the location matched and nobody came in to say “Just in case anyone was wondering, I’m the guy y’all met at NYCFest. This guy is just … something else.” And so I thought to myself “If anyone ever asked the question ‘Who did you never expect would turn out like that?’ I sadly now have an answer.”

Man. Talk about being wrong about someone’s character. Whoever came up with your nickname had the goods, let me tell you. You’re not the cool guy I met at NYCFest. I don’t know much what you are now except something really … icky. Every time I see a post of yours I think to myself “He’s realized what an asshole he was and he’s going to apologize.”

Every time I am sadly disappointed. I’d love to see the guy I met first in person (as opposed to so many people I met first on the boards and then at fests) posting here. Because honey, you ain’t it. I hope you will be someday. But until that time, you’re not worth mine.

One final note. MPSIMS is where (self)masturbatory posts such as:

"Dear Penthouse Forum,

I never thought a goat, two bisexual men and a cadillac belonged in anything other than a punchline. But last night, I found out the other place they belong…"

go.

As your entire OP is self-masturbatory (and honey, if you’re going to stroke your ego THAT much, use some lube. You’re starting to get blisters you-know-where), the only thing keeping it from belonging in MPSIMS is that you “disguise” it under an “I hath been wronged, and my cohorts as well! Moderator, where doth one go to seek redress for these grievances? I am most irked by the pithy, unnecessary and altogether uncouth behavior of these rapscallions. Come, Eduardo, unpack my suitcase in yonder bureau; we shall be here quite some time, I am afraid” air.

You weren’t wronged. You Are Wrong.

Thank you, and feel free to fucko off anytime soon.

A movie not entirely unrelated to H. G. Wells’ novel The Island of Doctor Moreau. Sorry, but I must insist on Wells getting his proper recognition …

Huh? OP? What OP? Oh, right … the argument, it appears to me, is that there should be some new forum, in which people can debate things in the style of Great Debates, only with no tact. As a believer in tact, I register my disagreement with this concept. It is possible to speak the truth and stand up for one’s beliefs without being gratuitously rude in the process. And I commend this course of action to the OP’s attention.

**Ace, do you honestly believe that this is productive in any way? **

Yeah, it gets him the attention he so desperately craves.

You see it all the time in these types which act “nice” at Dopefests, but turn into bitter antagonistic assholes as soon as they get back on line.

Yup, apparantly this includes Satan, Drain Bead, and the rest of the Hate Gang too. People say how “nice” or “cool” they are IRL, but then when online they show what they really are. Pathetic.

Whew. I though I was the only one.

Oh, and I don’t know about y’all, but the only thing I hear from the Hive Mind these days is show tunes.

Ahem…“Fenris” did no such thing. “Fenris” is a skeptic and a firm follower of the writings of Martin Gardner et al.

For the love of heavenly St. Augustine, when is this JC, JD, Ace sloppy gang bang going to end? I have never seen one poster so vehemently defend another to the point of starting new threads to further decry anyone who step on his mistress Diamond’s toes.

Get a fucking room you guys. Ace, can’t you get back to trashing Republicans or something?

[Robb]

Mangetout, I think so, but it doesn’t make any sense to me either.

Oops, my apologies to THE GREAT FENRISI, who clearly sees more than I do.

please, no, I’m personally hoping that this most recent fascination will overcome his prior posting history, so folks will at some point, no longer mentally attribute him to the ‘liberal’ camp.
