Still too pissed to read **Bricker** after his assholish pants-shitting in the CHIPS thread.

I (and others) others asked him several substantial questions, which he ignored, in order to pursue some “nuh uh”, point-gaining, chest-pounding exercise in nit-pickery. That guy’s like several assholes wrapped up in one tight, shitty package.

It’s pretty much a clusterfuck, really, and I’m not sure why I’m bothering to debate the issue, when the ones on the other side are behaving this way.

> I think this is a reasonable analysis. Obviously this is a bad case scenario. My main point was really that each nuke you set off is getting you more push per kilogram of payload mass. Also, I had implicitly assumed you were going to spend the propellant to brake, but your idea is better - just fly by and set off the nuclear shaped charge at the right nanosecond. And yeah, you would have to pick the patch you set it off next to carefully, apparently the material type matters.

This guy got ahold of something. Probably cleaning supplies in the bathroom cabinet.

And stay off my damn lawn!

…I sometimes find myself accidentally doing /name to address someone, like it’s 1994 again and I’m trying to private message someone in a bulletin board teleconference room or a MUD.

Don’t get me wrong. . . I _like_ it when people “think outside the box.” Not so much when they “think outside the limits of reality.”

Honest question: do you think he’s a Russian troll? I’m throwing $10 down that English is not his native language.

Tripler  
Hell, has the SDMB already been overrun by Russian trolling?

I think around that time, **SamuelA** was testing his asteroid-deflection rays while his self-replicating robots were hurling tungsten rods into the earth from orbit. Mad geniuses do tend to cause some disruption from time to time, but it really can’t be helped. It’s just what they do.
