Nobody “owes” you a goddamned thing.
Elvis,
he’s a waste
generally
Yeah, you too. Go fuck yourself. Fuckstain.
I was trying to point out a good quality, and a very redeeming one at that. I didn’t want nor expect it to be thrown in his face. Asshole.
That being said…
The only reason this pitting should matter to you is if you’ve been reading the threads concerning the Democratic primary in GD. This post makes it obvious you haven’t, so go sit with Squink and Omegaman until you realize what you did wrong like **E-Sabbath **did.
Pig shit makes an excellent fertilizer.
It’s still pig shit.
But you don’t use the fact that it’s a fertilizer as part of the list of things not to like about it. That list is already long enough, do you really need more fodder? Really? Don’t be a cuntstain.
<Butthead>
You can’t polish a turd, Beavis.

I’m just glad to know that others see his posts as I do. A prime example, I think, of the “pig-wrestling” adage.
Don’t be a cuntstain.
It’s elvis that’s the problem here. He’s acting like the goddamned bushies before the Iraq conquest.
The stream of dishonesty he’s spewed in the last few months makes me wonder if he’s also one of those engineers who lets substandard compressor blades through into production because ‘no one will know’.
How compartmentalized does he keep his Hillary obsession?
Ahem. I stand by the rest of my words in this thread, excepting the cheap shot, Santo.

It’s a lazy OP. he sucks 'cause he sucks, just see anything he’s written? Lazy OP’s deserve derision. If they can’t get enough interest on their own to specify an example or two, why should anyone else care. If , as the OP claims, it’s easy enough to see, it should have been easy enough to link. simple as that.
While I may agree w/the assesment, if the OP can’t be bothered to display evidence, why’d they bother w/a thread in the first place?

What. The. Fuck? You now have the same level of respect in my mind that I have for EL1’s debating skilz. I really, truly hope you don’t think that. If you do, well, I’ve got no words.

Ahem. I stand by the rest of my words in this thread, excepting the cheap shot, Santo.
Thank you.

Like I said, those who care already* know *exactly what the problem is. Just go see any single thread about the democratic primary. If you haven’t been reading them, then you don’t care anyway, and you’re just in here to see a fight. If you have been reading them, then you’d know that linking to all the specific examples would be too large to be encompassed in a single post.
The thread was necessary because there are things that people need/want to say that can’t be said in GD. That’s already been said in this thread, though. Looks like EL1 isn’t the only one who’s not paying attention.

I give a shit?
Intellectually dishonest people are often dishonest in other ways.
Only a fool trusts such a person’s word
You’re free to be a fool if you wish.

It wasn’t addressed to anyone else. The title and every word in the OP were directed to ElvisL1ves, telling him he sucks, and he damn well knows why.
It was a post borne out of frustration at not being able to make such a simple declaration as that in response to any of his inanity in GD, which is constantly what one wishes they could say to him after any and every post he makes.
I posted one example just above. Here are two more: Link Link.
And those are just 2 instances where my frustration level rose to such heights. Multiply that by all the other posters participating in any GD thread he’s in, and you have a better idea of how fucking annoying he is.
How’s it feel, knowing that you’re treating the voters of Michigan and Florida worse than slaves Shayna?
That sort of dishonest crap on Elvis’ part is as uncalled for as the right wing’s taunts that us war opponents are ‘America haters’.
Why anyone would cut the jerk slack over this is beyond me.
I’d like to meet this cat in real life.
There’s no way he can be this much of an asshole in real life. Nobody can. I mean you simply can’t go around insulting people when they disagree with you. Essentially what I’m saying is that Elvis gets his kicks from denigrating other people in this online fantasy realm. I wonder why?
Is it because in real life he is underappreciated?
Maybe nobody knows how “smart” he is?
Maybe he acts the way he does to compensate for some kind of gross inadequacy of somekind that I can’t even begin to imagine. I’d like to know what it is, that fuels the fire inside him.
Personally in GD I debate the topic the way I would in real life. I do it occasionally, when I get the chance. I make the same points. What I don’t do is:
“I’ve said why before, I’m not going to repeat”
“I’m not going to address you until you stop foaming at the mouth”
“You comment has no content”
You know what this is? It’s conversational terrorism
Please read the above link. It’s such a good description of what Elvis does.
And seriously wring don’t come in this thread without having seen why the pitting was required. You wander into this shit without knowing why it occured it only makes you look like an ass. This thread was created because of the way Elvis has been shitting over anyone who disagrees with him for the last 2000 posts. It’s always been a subtle, barely above bannable shit too. That’s where he exists. He lives on the line above bannable offenses. His debating style is SO FUCKING INSULTING that it drives you crazy. You sit there and try to get a single solid point of information from him and he won’t do it. He can’t even offer a single way that Hillary wins the nomination in a way that is beneficial to the Democratic party.
I think we’ve probably all been wanting to start a pit thread about him, but I didn’t want to be the one to have to open it. He has slowly degenerated into a string of putdowns using above-metioned conversational terrorism methods only. And he has the gall to believe that he is somehow a superior debater. A superior debater doesn’t lose the support of everyone in the discussion. If he were worth a shit then he might be able to convince at least one fucking person in the thread of his arguments just a little bit. But he can’t do that? Why? Because he has pull his dick out and show everone what a big man he is.
Seriously I wonder some times what it is he is trying to compensate for. Either he is generally filled with hate, or maybe something from his past. It’s his way of compensating for the one that got away? Who knows?
And just for fun, I think I’ll list the conversational terroristic tactics that Elvis loves to use…
KNEE JERK:
“I would like to answer your question directly, but considering your past reactions / ability to cope with the truth / emotional instability, I feel that to do so would be a disservice to you at this time.” [Other person gets (justifiably) upset.] “See, what did I tell you. You are flying off the handle already!”
Used this one on me before…
LOOK AT YOU:
After using any of the previous ploys, point out any physical manifestations of the other person’s irritation as further proof that they are wrong."You seem to be sweating a lot. Of course, I would be too if I had to try to support your flimsy position." "Why look, your lips are quivering. You have a hard time admitting defeat, don't you?"
He uses that one even though he can’t see anyone he’d talking too.
LISTEN UP:
Pretend that the reason the other person isn’t able to agree with you is that they are not listening, or at least not hard enough."If you'd just listen you'd have heard me the first time when I said that...." "Since you obviously weren't listening when I said this before, I'm forced to repeat myself."
This is the classic, “I’ve already written why before and I’m not doing it again”
and finally, the ad hominems…
OVER YOUR HEAD:
"I'd like to respond to that, but taking into account your background, education, and intelligence, I am quite sure that you would not be able to understand."
EVEN YOU:
"My next point will be so cogent that even you will be able to understand it." "Even you should be able to grasp the next point."
Honestly reading this list of chickenshit debate tactics really makes me feel like Elvis read the same fucking list yet forgot the part where it says NOT to use them. Why? because using them in real life makes people hate you and doesn’t get you ahead. When you use these tactics you get nowhere with anyone. They realize what you’re wrong.
Finally Santo I think it is totally fair to insinuate anything you want about Elvis in the pit. He deserves anything in my opinion.

Why anyone would cut the jerk slack over this is beyond me.
Nobody’s cutting him slack over his attitude in political threads. That’s why this thread exists. But it’s wholly gratuitous to slam him on areas that are completely irrelevant and in which he has not, in fact, acted like a total douchebag.

Please read the above link. It’s such a good description of what Elvis does.
Oh. My. G-d. :eek: I swear he has that printed out and uses it as a cheat sheet for every post he makes in GD. It’s stunning how precisely that depicts how he “debates”.
I don’t post much, but I lurk a lot and I have read pretty much all the Democratic Party threads being dicussed here.
I agree that ElvisL1ves acted rather dickishly in most, if not all, of them.
I particularly found these posts annoying.
These in the midst of posts with actual thought behind them (by other posters)
I thought the OP was a parody of an Elvis GD post. That’s what he does when cornered:
“I already answered that.”
“Where?”
“Go read it!”
This is a pit thread about Elvis’s GD posting style. Go read it.
I was sure Merk had pulled all of those quotes from Elvis’s posts, so perfectly do the non-examples of how to carry on a rational debate evoke his posting style.

Bless your heart.
Exact three words which come to my mind on reading every single DrDeth post for like two years.
