Oft quoted but fitting:“There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs."
I think original was John Rogers.
Ayn (or John or Dagny or Hank or the real Mr. D’Anconia) would never use such a coarse insult. In fact, they’d all have much more important things to do than bother with things like insulting people on the internet.
You’re just incredibly bad at being a Randian, aren’t you?
From the OP: (Emphasis added)
Hell. the second sentence of the post is about the biotrash.
The OP himself admitted that there’s no proof that the neighbor in question is the one littering on his property. Calling the police is a gross overreaction.
That thread reminds me of the poster who thinks that people who live in apartments shouldn’t wear shoes or use a ceiling fan!
Pure craziness.
So what is the “correct” response to repeated applications of bloody tampons and broken glass to one’s property?
There’s no evidence that it even happened, let alone that one specific neighbor is responsible.
On a completely unrelated note, does anyone know a way to see how long someone has been on your ignore list? I’m just curious.
You’re right. We should absolutely treat all Ops as being entirely fictitious. Yet….
That wasn’t my question. My question was:
Let us pretend that this was happening to YOU. Or your spouse, or close relative – someone you trust not to be lying.
WHAT IS THE CORRECT REPONSE TO CONDOMS, TAMPONS, AND BROKEN GLASS IN YOUR YARD?
Call a subhuman who is only fit to serve their master and have them clean it up.
Yeah, but you could say this to any OP. In fact, I can imagine you probably will:

Oh, man, there’s this guy at my office, and he microwaves fish for lunch.

Kneejerk response:
[QUOTE=D’Angry]
I know that guy, and he doesn’t work with you. In fact, can you prove you don’t work with all women, in a guy-less office?
And you’re going to have to post the model number of that microwave, so I can insinuate that I have ways of knowing that a single serving size piece of salmon (or any whitefish currently available to the American public) would NOT be able to fit in that microwave.
And who calls the cops for a fish smell? Please don’t waste law enforcement resources on such trivia.

I’m not going to engage in mindless hypotheticals, regardless of your shouting.
CONDOMS, TAMPONS, AND GLASS, OH MY!
It never happened, much like the grill thing that was the subject of this thread.
You know, I’m beginning to have a sneaky suspicion that Broomstick doesn’t even want to tell us whether or not his ass says rebeW.
