To those new to the board, I have one thing to say.
You’re about to meet an opionated man: Diogenes the Cynic, who knows what he knows and knows it well. This is an intelligent man, a stubborn man, who’s tired of cutting people slack for their obvious stupidity. Diogenes, whose own blind ignorance is about to catapult him into the darkest corner of… the Dio Zone
Troll or not, the pattern of [ul]outrageous claim.[]I never said that.[]Okay, I did say that but what I really meant was something else.[]Okay, I already dismissed that something else; what I really meant was this.[]etc.[/ul] is certainly jerkish.
The only thing that amazes me about Dio and this board is that everyone else recognizes his bullshit, since it is completely in line with the liberal douche philosophy shared by lots of other posters here (i.e., that he has THE ANSWER and isn’t interested in hearing other opinions on the matter; things should be the way he thinks they should, other people’s valid choices and free exchanges be damned).
I’ve almost put him into the Der Trihs zone (i.e., don’t respond to him because he’ll just spew the same thing he’s already spewed instead of responding to what I actually said), but Dio’s rap above has kept him out of that zone for now.
That right there is the funniest thing I’ve read in a long time on this board.
Seriously though… Dio somehow manages to generally irritate me with almost every post; it’s not always what he’s saying, it’s frequently how he says it.
In my mind, the Dio Zone, the Der Trihs Holodeck, and the Rand Rover Rumpus Room are all adjacent to each other in a lower circle of the UnderDope. Although, it must be said that brief visits are certainly enjoyable.
I mean…yo yo. This thread be droppin more bombs than Enola gay, Holmes.
Well, of course I anticipated the “you do that too!!” response that is de rigeur here for some reason. But I think you are wrong. I respond to the specific claims that people post in response to my posts. I don’t just once again assert the same assertion I asserted in the post they responded to.
Please feel free to post examples of me doing what you are accusing me of doing, if you have them. Or don’t and show yourself to be of the teeming millions of reflexive “you are a hypocrite” posters this place is lousy with.
