Think about this: none of that makes sense. This “posting” this “thread” is a criminal waste of time. I started it. It was only intended to be understood by half a dozen people if that. Why are you in it? Why is anyone in it? Why do you keep coming back? You all must be leisure millionaires. It isn’t worth it. It’s about nothing. I’m new to the Internet so it still holds a little novelty for me (but only just). But I realise that every time I do this it’s a book I haven’t read or something worthwhile I haven’t done. You keep on posting - is it out of some horrible fascination or boredom or what? There is no need for it. Just go away. And realise that 80% of the listed members have never heard of me or you. They don’t care.
But while I’m here, maybe I can give you something to ponder for a bit. Hopefully it’ll geive you something to do other than post.
Iinitiation of basic charismatic subculture development effects a significant implementation of any normative concept of the linguistic/holistic continuum. However, our fully integrated field program recognizes the importance of other disciplines, while taking into account any discrete configuration modality. Similarly, the independent functional principle adds explicit performance contours to the profound meaning of “The Raw and the Cooked”.
Thus, within given parameters, a primary interrelationship of system and/or subsystem logistics must utilize, and be functionally interwoven with, all deeper structuralistic conceptualization. In theory, any exponential folklife coefficient requires considerable performance analysis and computer studies to arrive at conflict-free universal modality methods. Of course, any associated supporting element adds overwhelming folkloristic significance to Propp’s basic formulation. In particular, a large proportion of intercultural communicative coordination is holistically compounded, in the context of the anticipated epistemological repercussions.
On the other hand, the incorporation of agonistic cultural constraints presents a valuable challenge showing the necessity for the preliminary qualification limit. In respect to essential departmental goals, a constant flow of field-collected input ordinates is functionally equivalent to (though formally distinct from) improved subcultural compatibility testing.
Okay, I’m starting to get my mental “weirdo flakes of the SDMB” list mixed up.
Is G. Nome the poster who:
Refused to give blood because she felt it made her weaker and thus less able to defend herself from predatory shopping-cart wielding rapists
or
Feels strongly that the FBI is implanting pins in Americans to better track their movements?
Sorry for the hijack; with all the different Serlin names and all of the various recent weirdness (freak freaked, etc.) I’m getting a little confused.
Not that confusion is a surprising thing when dealing with G. Nome.
The blood thing was lindsay IIRC. G. Nome is not mad, just a touch contrived and ill-advised in posting a couple of distractingly odd things here and there, then starting this thread. She has started a thread in GQ which (although it probably doesn’t belong there) is perfectly sensible. If she could cope with not being the centre of attention she’d be a useful contributor IMHO.
Why? Can YOU get even one hundredth to see this thread?
Sure. Die first. And even then, the best I can guarantee is “Good riddance, fucking idiot.”
Because every member has the privilege to post in any thread they want. Most came here in an attempt to understand what the fuck you were saying (fighting ignorance and all that jazz, don’tcha know).
It takes all of five minutes to make a post. Well, for sane people, it does.
Hey, the Center for Disease Control urgently summoned me back from vacation for this?
Well, whaddya know; SD’s Yard Gnome reappears. Somehow I suspected her wounded feelings and dignified snit wouldn’t last.
What the hell, her unique blend of irrationality and incoherence is some of the funniest stuff on the board. It’s unintentional humor, which just makes her more hilarious.
At the rate she ties personal attacks to surreal synaptic burps, there’s a certain morbid fascination in awaiting what supremely silly thing she’ll pop off next.
Don’t know about you guys, but I’m pulling up the lawn chair, opening a cold beer and settling back with some popcorn for the show. Since Gnome is determined to make a technicolor fool of herself, might as well enjoy the production.
Okay. With the aid of my Big Book of Lacan and the various arcane schools of chiromancy in which I am practiced, I had been following G. Nome’s posts to the best of my ability. Until I came to:
That just crosses the line. Brotha Dollar speaks for Jesus. Because of Brotha Dollar, I’ve kicked crack, I’m off welfare, I’ve paid off my house, and I have a timeshare with that crazy government-money bastard with the question marks all over his blazer. Use the name of Brotha Dollar in vain again, and I’ll have to open an economy-sized can of whup-ass all over the boards, which will most likely short out all kinds of servers, and get even more threads started in ATMB about how fucking slow the boards are today, and no one wants that. You have been warned. Punk.
Oh, completely. This whole time, I’m thinking “What nonsensical bullshit will be spouted next?” And yet, I’ve got this sliver of hope that maybe 'Nome will finally make a regular post. Hey, things like this happen. I mean, if Chief Scott can post a smiley, 'Nome can post intelligently.
Your initial whiny rant and the subsequent defenses are tedious and pointless. If you feel so blood oppressed, leave. I don’t see anything different here than in normal society. Some people are intolerant, some people are, and some are just here to start trouble. This isn’t utopia, this is the SDMB.
If you don’t like the board and are annoyed with it and find it so boring, leave. I doubt many will miss you, and the level of conversation with revert to the pithy bon mots we were exchanging before you decided to use your keyboard to vomit on us.
You failed, because I can guarentee you, it wasn’t even understood by that many.
Have you seen a 49’ers game in the past 2 years? It’s horrible, and painful. Yet, I can’t stop myself from watching. Or, when you drive by a horrible accident, you can’t help but look. As someone else put it, we all have this morbid curiosity.
Wait, I have a question…how long does it take you to write a post? I’m gonna take about 5 mins to do this one. Surely not enough time to actually read a book.
You obviously care, because you keep coming back for more. I have inferred that you have a massive inferiority complex.
It’s more likely to be my park bench or yours isn’t it?
Time to kill usually means no money to spend.
I have some time to waste, Pepperlandgirl, but I’d have to be fucking immortal before I’d even read your website hyperlink again. That fact gave me the impetus to attempt to clear my name before I take that final hit of carbon monoxide. I looked back over the stuff I had posted to find what it was that had caused all me all that hostility. As far as I understand it is because I:
Asked why a lot of Internet Mother’s Day ads were sexist
Asked why people do not see hypnotism as sinister or worrying when they see stage hypnotists demonstrating their craft
Asked if doctors and psychiatrists still believed in hysterical blindness or could commit people exhibiting primarily physical symptoms of illness
Asked why Microsoft chose Start Me Up to promote Windows 95
Asked why, in these days of male strip revues and Sex TV male “flashing” is still seen as a major crime
Asked (by way of a faux socio-psychological theory) why women can’t be seen as heroines in the same way men can be heroes. This was in the “first night” thread.
Asked if 18th Century Europeans’ concepts of underpopulation allowed them to become colonists.
What’s wrong with those questions? I thought this website was similar to Ask Me or such when I first found it. I didn’t know it was a social club. That’s why, if you notice, I haven’t posted up my smear test results. I’ve always liked American stuff - I seriously think Mike Myers, for instance, should get a Nobel Prize for his John Smith sketch in Austin Powers. But, oh whatever nevermind and so on and so on.
Now I can see where I may have gone wrong. Out of tiredness I’ve said I wanted to be funny. That’s not true. I wanted to say I had respect for American culture. That’s all. I hate boringness though, in me or anyone.
Wearing cardigans? Is THAT what this is about? So you are bashing Mr. Rogers? Or are you bashing the non-hero from the MST3K’s smash hit, Agent for H.A.R.M?
Now, really I don’t like a cardigan on a man but I still think that’s a lame reason to bash someone… or did I miss the point? Oh, everyone else did TOO?! WHAT?! There was no point?! The point is to be pointless?! Okay, I get it…
Well, now I don’t feel quite so bad. But to get back to the whole cardigan thing; I think it’s a subtle, “hey I’m gay” signal if you wear it knotted over your shoulders but if you actually put it ON it’s screamingly, “hey I’m gay.”
Sure hope I got somewhere near the vortex of the OP…
BWAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA! OOoooh yeah. I was shunned in school, always last picked, I was the joke of the school to most people. I never went to parties (wasn’t invited) and I hate football. I was a drama geek in school and the jocks hated all of us. Some people accuse me of being goth, when they see my picture. http://fathom.org/opalcat/portraits/opal-front10.jpg
Anyway… you have so grossly misrepresented the general population of the SDMB that we can only laugh at you. There is simply no other choice.
