Good analysis. I agree. Maybe the rule should be, you can call people idiots, dopes, jerks, and otherwise be insulting providing you can cite evidence that they actually are idiots, dopes, jerks, wilfully ignorant, or whatever.
I don’t think it was the content of your post, rather that you posted in rhyming (which december does now and then)
Just joking Anthracite - for a while December was doing a rhyming routine is all.
To respond to wring’s rant about me:
It wasn’t my intention to pollute this thread with dialogue irrelevant to the nature of this wake, which should be devoted to Collounsbury, but as you insist:
I’m sure we’ve been through this before. You, Kumquat, Kal, Sparc. The fact that you guys can’t stand my guts is well known to me. You guys behave like fuckin school boys, like what’s up with that snickering “reindeer” reference . Some inside joke boys?
You have no evidence to assert that I was gloating. You certainly may speculate, as it is well known that Collounsbury and I did not get along. But let me tell you that I have ten times, no let me make it 100 times the respect for Collounsbury that I have for you. I’ve never missed checking into a Collounsbury post if I was aware of it, but passing over your name when listed on the forum is routine for me.
So if you guys do not see fit to take me at my word, and submit an apology, don’t expect me to apologize in light of your dim-witted conclusion in re gloating.
I don’t believe you. Our mutual history suggests merely an attempted set up to villify me.
What, and that demonstrates I was gloating? Let me give you a clue. don’t be thinking about going into law if and when you graduate high school.
Again, bullshit!
what fucking history?
This thread is the first time I ever recall butting heads w/you. And since I’ve rarely posted in the past several months, I believe that you’d have to go back at least a year before you’d find me even addressing you specifically. You simply aren’t that important to me.
You said there is ‘no evidence’.
you are wrong.
We pointed out words that could easily be seen as gloating.
You apparently didn’t mean them that way, and I repeat for the motherfucking last time, fine - but fucking acknowledge that your fucking words can easily be seen as fucking gloating.
you link me w/ the others - try finding other threads where we all lined up.
You say that you doubt my words to you that I gave you an out.
my original comment was
Which unequivacably says “If you say that comment (for one) as a gloat, fine, I’ll accept that”
So asshole - my fucking words say exactly what I meant and what I said that they do vs. yours which can (and according to you) were misinterpreted.
So, your position, apparently, is that I am lying directly and that my very clear words to you were a lie, whereas, I’ve wronged you severely by misunderstanding your (easily misunderstood) words?
You can be assured that I will indeed remember you as a jerk in the future. Congrats.
Look, if he was frustrated, all he had to do was go to the Pit and make a thread. That’s what I do. That is what the majority of people around here do.
Glad to help, as always.
Sure, I knew. I was just surprised that someone else had done rhyming.
Maybe next I will do the “Collounsbury Rap”. Maybe along the lines of those requiems for Snoop Dog or Notorious BIG…
Thanx Izzy. Note that Sparc was on my case too.
Now that was TWO MONTHS AGO. Now what is it wring? You lying or you’ve got alzheimers?
Fuck!
In all fairness, I doubt if she remembered it - it was not an extended battle. Still, you’re on solid ground yourself as well. I call for a truce.
Wanna show me where I’ve said I hate your guts? I think that in the aftermath of Coll’s banning, you’ve acted with little class and I also think that you are very whiney. That, to you, translates into hating your guts?
Got news for you; if you really think you’re important enough for me to hate, then you’re way fucking wrong.
The ‘snickering’ reference to Reindeer was made by just me. It comes from this thread. Twisty asked me what the crudest word my Speak and Spell could come up with, I told him ‘Reindeer’ and Gary thought the exchange was funny.
You may notice that no-one responded to it so doesn’t appear to be too much of an inside joke, does it? Get over yourself, sunshine.
Kal
I had no idea wring is a woman.
Actually, no. People think that Coll’s crime was the one that violated the rules of the Board.
The administrators of the Board strive to be viewpoint-neutral, while policing the tone used to express such viewpoints. That is a difficult task, as most people want just as much as you and I to slam those morons.
But there is a long tradition that believes that the free marketplace of ideas is a good thing, and the Boards agree. The goal of the mods and administrators is to keep things civil, not stomp on idiots.

Note that Sparc was on my case too.
Note that I was on your case because of your confused blabbering and obvious lack of understanding as to what provocative and offensive opinion in the shades of bigotry is. You are right though this is getting a tad bit repetitive… what’s the cause of this repition and the constant common denominator, now it couldn’t be you, or could it?
And grieny, you seem to think it’s personal. It really isn’t, at least not for me. I don’t have the first clue of who you are. All I can do is talk to the words that pop up on this screen. Although I am sure you’re a decent fellow in some other reality, thus far I await more impressive missives in your name.
Sparc
so, more than two fucking months ago, I addressed you in a thread and disagreed w/you. That, in your mind (and yours, too Izzy ) constitutes “Butting heads with” or “Having a history” ? If that’s the case then I “have a history” with damn near everyone here, including some close pals like Fenris (with whom I’ve often disagreed), or Guin (with whom I’ve occasionally disagreed).
(and FTR, no, I didn’t recall that one specifically - I do recall butting heads w/december repeatedly for example, I remember disagreeing w/ Izzy, Scylla etc in threads, but not butting heads. I recall exactly two other posters that I would admit that I “butted heads/with” , TheRyan and someother guy who’s name starts w/a “w”, that’s it from what I recall - I don’t carry grudges - even w/december with whom I almost always disagree and can get frustrated w/ )
and since you now admit that you didn’t realize my gender was female, I suggest to you that is some measure of evidence that we don’t have a significant history. (that fact routinely comes up, either 'cause I post something about being a mom, or 'cause some one else refers to me as a ‘dude’ and I correct it to “dudette”)

Hell, until you told me I had no idea I couldn’t stand your guts. Funny old world.
Still laughing about Reindeers though.

Well you didn’t just disagree with him - you pretty much characterized him as a near-troll. So I would think he might be justified in not taking your offer of “an out” at face value.
Nope, not at all, Izzy and please to stop putting words in my mouth. here’s what I said
my ‘off thetop of my head’ list of consevatives who get called on the carpet continually include you and december
in the prior paragraph I say
conservatives who don’t get accused of trolling (or calls for their banning) include (list of names)
Now, that is not the same as calling him a troll or calling for his banning. I said he was “called on the carpet”, that there were other conservatives who weren’t called trolls or had people begging for their banning, but I did not say that he was a troll or that he should be banned (left open for the door that other people may have said those things - I don’t recall specifically, I do believe that he’s been pitted before, but not as regularly as december.
So, again - I fucking disagreed with him three months ago. You do have me on the fact that I had specifically addressed him 3 months ago ( I did not recall that, believe it as you will - that was page 3 of a 6 page thread that wasn’t even started by him. so sue me) if you consider a single disagreement from 3 months ago (on page 3 of a 6 page thread) to be ‘having a history’, then again, I suggest that everyone has a ‘history’ with damn near everyone here.
Okay grienspace, I’ve just looked at my posts in the previous thread about Coll’s attitude, re-read my posts in this thread and done a search to see if we’ve interracted much.
In this thread, I’ve said that kicking Coll was not very classy, told Gary to call you a stupid name and move on, then taken the piss out of lucwarm’s use of the word civil.
In the older thread I asked if Coll was aware he had been pitted, told Gary that I assumed the comment you regarded as racist was “calling a spade a spade” then, when he asked if you were kidding, told him I that I didn’t know and that I was drunk from all the whine.
Searching for any interaction with you, I found one reference where I replied to you regarding troll-hunting.
I get really pissed when I’m falsely accused of something. So, do you want to show me the posts that made it ‘well known’ to you that I hated your guts?
