Yosemite Sam has the limited vocabulary and is very stupid, he only has the clown role although Yosemite Sam never realizes this, he always thinks he is clever.
There is a huge distinction. No one is championing burglars. They are just not being sympathetic to an asshole. They don’t feel sorry that he has to pay a relatively tiny bit of money to fix shit. They are happy that he’s reaping some of the karma from his actions.
You act like he died or was seriously injured. No, he just suffered a minor setback that he can easily afford to fix. And I think it’s fucking ridiculous to demand that people feel sympathy about minor crap for someone who only treats them like shit.
And I say that even though I’m on record as saying that I see no reason not to have sympathy for everyone, since it costs so little. I can, in fact, feel a bit sorry for the guy. I can relate to his anger. I hate that any human being has to feel that.
Still, I also learned firsthand not to make Pit threads about shit that everyone else is going to think is petty. And I’m not hated nearly as much as Clothahump.
I don’t think it’s fair to insist that everyone be nice to someone who treats them like crap. Heck, I’m not sure that doesn’t just reward them. Clothahump sewed his oats by attacking pretty much everyone, so he reaps their anger and mockery.
I have no problem if you feel differently. I do–which is why I didn’t attack him. I just reject the idea that these other people are horrible because of it.
For once I totally agree with Clothahump (cue SFX of Hell freezing over).
Fuck a bunch of low lifes who’d break into someone’s place and steal their shit.
You might believe that but I’m gonna need a cite, as I have failed to see that behavior in any of your posts.
Considering he just admitted to trolling, and got a warning for it, I’m inclined to agree with your skepticism.
“Hahahaha! I played all of you idiots like a violin! I actually *LIKE *burglars!”
Wouldn’t be surprised if the “burglar” never really existed in the first place and the window got broken by one of his staff or a student. Too loose of a grip on a nunchuk, for example.
You’ll shoot your eye out, kid.
I pit burglars, too.
But, if the OP is as much of an asshole in real life as he is on the SDMB, I wouldn’t be surprised if someone did it just to piss him off. And, I must say I’m not sure I would really blame them.
Karma is a harsh mistress.
There is a lesson here though:
People who live near Crass Grouches… Shouldn’t Throw Stones!
