> [@the lone cashew](#): > > She may be stubborn with her views but I don’t see how someone can’t like Stoid. Haven’t you also come out in support of \*\*curlcoat \*\*in the past? Is this some kind of ironic humour, or do you really like both these people? As for **Stoid** , her argument style is incredibly annoying - ever since the whole law suit fiasco (and I’m sure before that) she’s been irritating. She is not an honest debater and furthermore doesn’t have much background in pretty much any field, as far as I can tell. This wouldn’t be so bad if she didn’t preface every single post of hers with disclaimers about how enlightened she is, how much she values truth and logic, how empathetic she is towards the human condition, how much insight she has gained through her fabulous exploits, etc, etc, etc. She seems to think she inhabits a different plane of understanding than the rest of us, and if we would just carefully read her pearls of wisdom, we’d see the light and worship her as the god she is. But actually reading her huge long screeds is a exercise in futility, and if you point out the numerous flaws in her logic then she gets all bent out of shape and claims that you just don’t understand her. So eventually everyone just gives up and she gets to go on believing that we are just in the dark about the truth she has tried to bring to us. So frustrating. ---

> [@Larry\_Borgia](#): > > She simply will not listen to people who aren’t telling her what she wants to hear. I don’t participate in her threads because there are walls that are better listeners, but they have a train-wreck entertainment value. She is exactly the same way in threads about weight loss or where she is asking legal questions. A thousand times this. If you’re not saying what she wants to hear, you’re just plain wrong.

If you begin with religion, you might become an atheist. If you go from religion to [philosophy](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophy), you might become a rationalist or an empiricist. Full disclosure: I find myself to be a rationalist. But, then, I believe that there is something - a question - _beyond_ philosophy. And even beyond that there are more questions. Can you honestly admit that, if you begin with, say, war, you don’t continue on your search for knowledge? You might become a pacifist, but, if you do continue you might become something more. ---

She once argued for pages about how she can’t lose weight through healthier lifestyle changes, then _in the same thread_ detailed some of her horrible eating habits. That said, the problem with **Stoid** a lot of the time is her reputation precedes her. People’s personal opinions of her (often justified) seem to color the conversations with her, and at times she is targeted when she hasn’t even done anything wrong. No comment on the links in the OP.

Nothing is wrong with wanting to learn; you’d be hard-pressed to find someone 'round these parts who not only thinks that, but would be willing to express it openly. I’m not sure how familiar you are with the Pittee’s posting style, but everything starts with this sermon about how she’s half way through her journey toward being the most worldly and enlightened person in the universe, and like **Meyer** said, seems to have this honest belief that she is operating on some higher plane than the rest of us mortals. Arrogant and irritating in its own right, then exacerbated by her posts being as far from the self-serving preface as possible. ---

> [@MeanOldLady](#): > > Just… back away. Sometimes it’s best to just understand that you’re not speaking the same language, and say no more. I disagree. He’s easy to understand. He’s saying he doesn’t like Wikipedia, and prefers the Encyclopedia Britanica, but has learned not to say anything about it because it will just make people upset. He’s also saying that he thinks that there is a philosophical discussion about truth\* that he can’t really talk about here, either, without being ridiculed for his position. The same philosophical discussion Stoid was trying to have in the GD v GQ thread. Oh, and that he used to be as annoying as Stoid until he stumbled on his definition of truth. ETA: \*That most likely involves something about whether truth is consensus based or absolute, with Wikipedia standing for the former, while the EB stands for the latter.
