Speak for yourself, dammit.

Is that the sound of Stoid running in place? 
Stoid just can’t agree with other people’s opinions. She has her basic ideas set out in her head to start with, and no matter how very obviously wrong she is or how knowledgeable or persuasive her opponents are she won’t budge an inch from what she has already decided is true. She will prevaricate or cavil at all objections or she will just stonewall.
Does that mean she’s a freaking dipshit? I think it makes her extremely limited in her capacity to learn from her mistakes or indeed to take in new ideas. That makes her more handicapped than a dipshit, in my opinion. Frustrating to deal with, but I don’t think that at her age she’s ever going to break out of it.
As for her being “cool” because she’s a pornographer…I invite you to view her site and her photos and videos and the fact that she handled herself very poorly in her dealings with her ex. Not a person I would personally want to be a friend.
I don’t get the animus. I have never found Stoid to be particularly unreasonable, and I say that as someone who typically disagrees with her (at least in the old political threads I recollect).
I’d rather not wade through a 9-page thread–anyone want to provide an example of something that contributes to her freaking dipshittedness?
The reason this in particular bugs me, is that she is saying that while there is no evidence for the afterlife or dragons, the afterlife requires evidence to disprove it, while dragons require evidence to prove their existence. The only reason for the different standards is that the afterlife is more popular.
That argument is drivel of the highest order. It’s annoying enough on its face, but the silly bitch is actually attempting to show what an enlightened debater she is.
A small thing, but don’t be too fat to climb a flight of stairs and tell me how to train for a marathon.
[devil’s advocate]
I see your point. But isn’t she merely saying what the debate should focus more heavily on (“more consideration”), all things considered, and not that that vast, vast belief by itself proves anything? I’m reading this out of context, so the string of the debate might make this clearer. But I’m not sure this would make me relegate her to the realm of dumb-headed dipshits in any event, by itself. That’s what I was reacting to–there seem to be lots of people who have a heated reaction to her.

Hang on a second. Was Stoid formerly known as abby?
No, Stoid and Abby are two distinct pornographers.
Stoid does vintage porn. Abby specializes in hairy Australian women. Or so I hear.
What, he asks with some trepidation, is vintage porn?
Porn from Ye Olden Days.
Would you like to see some *feeelthy *etchings?
Yet that surely doesn’t describe her opponents in said thread at all either. Got it.
Vintage porn would be porn from several decades past which means that Stoid distributes porn but doesn’t actually create it. Abby has an Australian amateur (not necessarily hairy) porn website, www dot abbywinters dot com, that seems pretty good if that’s your thing. I’m think one of the other Kiwi posters here is (was?) involved in Abby’s website. All will be revealed if you can be bothered searching for her “ask the pornographer” thread (I can’t.)
I’m not saying that from one single thread. I’m saying that from about 15 threads, a few of which I have participated in.
I’m not saying that no one else has periods of “I’m right and you’re wrong”; I’m saying that Stoid is pretty much always that way. And I really think that hampers her, here and in real life.
Here. Never say I don’t do anything for you people.
You know, the stuff your mom was in.
That’d be me. In fact, abbywinters production has moved to Amsterdam, due to irritating legal nudging after Australia becoming strangely more conservative.
Anyhoo, I’ve always liked Stoid. I don’t think she’s any more stubborn or ignorant than any of us, and she just gets frustrated by people who misinterpret her intent and then get annoyed at her for something she didn’t say.
Agnes flashes her ankle! Winnifred reveals her wrists! A man shakes the unwilling hand of a pale-skinned maiden on a crowded interurban, whereupon she succumbs to the vapours. There’s also scandalous interracial action, where an upstanding American male pecks a Jewess on the cheek. Some say this ultimately led to the Hepburn Act of 1905, which increased the power of the Interstate Commerce Commission to regulate railroad rates.
