He needs to find a tech board to spam with all his questions.
I didn’t even realize this was an OP-resurrected semi-zombie at first. I went over to GQ, and thought, “well, maybe not a dozen, necessarily, but dayum, those are some dumb questions.”
God, yes. Not to mention, I have yet to see a thread in which he passes the Turing test.
Same here, except I was wondering how I was missing all of the topics that were mentioned. :smack:
Interesting how a zombie like this can be picked up without missing a beat.
I don’t mind the questions themselves; they’re not always well informed but that’s OK, that’s the purpose of GQ. What annoys me is the abrasive attitude he takes towards anyone who challenges his assumptions. He clearly has an agenda or a bias and is looking to hear answers that he wants. Anyone who answers in a way he doesn’t like is attacked or belittled. I’ve given up trying to answer his OPs, there’s no point engaging him in a discussion.
These are important questions. The collective wisdom of the dope will ferret out waste in the motorcycle parts market allowing America to flourish again.
After banging my head on that wall I was glad to see this thread pop up.
The exciting new field of “motorcycle parts arbitrage” could be the best thing for late-night televsion since “hotel-motel management” went out of style.
Check out his idiotic posts in the thread about differences in temperament between different racial groups. The guy is making an ass of himself, and putting absolute bullshit out there.
Agreed. He wasn’t able to defend his position, and just started spouting blather to cover it up.
I am waiting for your input on the issue of racial differences in brain structure as detected by fMRI, Colibri. With baited breath 
you sound more pissed off here than in the motorcycle thread, Hbns. Over there we actually held a meaningful sub-thread discussion and arrived at some non-trivial (if minor) conclusions.
I blame the Pit-ting communal reinforcement :smack:
Yes, with our new Tungsten-free Gold currency.
I think you mean bated breath, unless perhaps you’ve been eating earthworms.
Did that cite have any data on differences in “temperament” between Caucasians (their term) and African-Americans? No. So why would anyone be interested in that tidbit of information when it had nothing to do with the topic of the thread?
Do you expect people to waste time commenting on your posting of random bits of information sprinkled in with your thin veiled racist comments?
You make fighting ignorance a full time job.
Yes precisely. The nasty undertone and aggressive ignorance (and hint he’s mining for cockamamie IT projects and so looking for “answers he wants”) are irritating.
Many of the questions are not in themselves bad, and even exploration follow-up is not bad, but the package is fundamentally off-putting and in the end, not worth it.
(Condoms, I mean really…)
you still have not defined “temperament”, Mr. genius anti-racist. I told you to do that in the thread, and you never bothered to. Yeah, so people of different races differ on hormone profiles, age of menarche, brain structure and a few other objectively measurable biological factors that have obvious correlates in the realm of behavior - but their “temperament” must be the same. But of course! To say otherwise would be racist :eek:
off to Oprah’s talk show with you, Mr. fundamentally off-put cockamamie-ly irritated individual. Your feelings will not be hurt over there, with interlocutors in the 2 digit IQ range who already know it all about the world and so have no need for asking further questions.
It’s up to the OP to define his terms if he needs to. “Temperament” is a well defined English word, though, so I don’t see the issue. And guess what, dipshit. People aren’t go to do something just because to “told” them to.
Go back and read post #79 in that thread, you idiot. You were too stupid or lazy to read what people wrote in that thread, and I’m sure as hell not going to repeat myself here.
You posted speculation rather than a cite; bullshit doesn’t require a response.
What kind of bait have you been eating?
