…Ah damn, I thought for sure that guy in the red was gonna make it.

Anyway, where were we on the Fluff?

If you’re really asking, this:

[QUOTE=Vahid Tarzan]  
It is entertaining to place a notion in people’s head, than see the result later when it comes about.  
[/QUOTE]  
is the definition of trolling. Seriously. Trolling is defined as posting something just to get a rise out of people.

Hmm.

- You start a thread making a bunch of assertions.
- HMHW comes in and speaks to those assertions, citing data that suggests your assertions are incorrect
- Other folks get snarky because that is what life is like on an internet message board
- You offer that delightful quote above

There is a reasonable discussion to be had if you want to discuss some of the assertions made and the cites offered to show how they are incorrect. Otherwise, it sounds like you have a clear idea of the place you need to stand…perhaps you should go stand there.

I believe our good man, **Vahid Tarzan,** believes himself to be unaffected by the Fluff’s din (which is painfully obviously alien tech used to suppress our understanding and keeping us under their thumb), and is therefore on a higher level than humans, as we humans believe we are on a higher level than say, a pig.

In that regard, **Vahid Tarzan** is trying to communicate to our lesser brains, as we might try to communicate with gorillas, dolphins, or slime mold. So be mindful of his condescension, as we are but mice to him.

BEWARE THE FLUFF!

Oh hey, BSG’s on!..

Six.

Six facets: space, time, mass, energy, gravity and bacon.

You forget the secret seventh facet, connected with gravity and bacon: cats (which control gravity, by always landing feet first, and are dominated by bacon (see [Bacon Cat Lives On | Whatever](http://whatever.scalzi.com/2008/10/03/bacon-cat-lives-on/))

You are incorrect. This fracture is not “temporal”. It originated and was progenitated by the vengeful radiation fleeing from the Japanese reactor which has damaged the ocean and the “all life” biological forms within the waters. Man’s industry has spilt oil into the oceans, coating sea life in the batter of civilization. Now man’s hubris has applied radiation to the “all Life” biologicals. Radiation is heat. The Japanese oil and heat have affected sea life and has caused a tempura fracture, the most delicious of all quantum events.

vahid, do you know my mom? She a schizophrenic too.

Seriously. This is the clearest demonstraton of schizophrenia I have seen in quite a while.

Bummer dude. Hope you have a moment of lucidity in the near future. And I hope you dopers don’t pick on him too much. That would be like picking on a slow kid. It’s just not cool.

How do we know that. Sure, he certainly presents himself as schizophrenic, but he could just as easily be a troll, roll playing out some sic-fi idea, or just really, really into fluff.

It’s fun to pretend!

Alas, nothing.

When 47 people ask or assert their opinion, I respond to the group collective. Half-Wit has already revealed his ignorance in a previous thread, Wordman. His knowledge about the Fluff and Japanese fallout is only coming about, and yet like the Duracell bunny he highlights his own words and keeps going and going and going. I ignore him as he gives rank and status to snarky. I didn’t come here to present proof to a clown or king. Their talking themselves to death, sort of speak.

Nice.

In truth, War should be declared on Japan.

I have no words but woes for the horrible mess the human animal has made of this world. We should be in universal agreement about that. The economy, big business… The greatest tragedies seem aimed at the poor and Joe tax slave. When I walk my dogs at night I see people trying so hard to make a nice life for their family, and yet powerlines strung directly over their children’s bedrooms to cook them slowly while they sleep. So many lies, there is only my hope that a wild concoction of radiation and lightning will kill them all to have mercy on my conscience.

People will not learn unless their choice is death. A child suffering from a brain tumor and weeping softly in her mother’s arms… the world will never know. We see isolated pockets of events and think it’s ok, or think nothing of it because we were told there is not enough evidence. That makes it easier to swallow for people especially withal the responsibilities their ass sucking public demands. It is a global cancer. I beg for its destruction however fantastic the cost to save me one day of smelling its rot, its pedophilia, its homosexuality whispering its melancholy in the ear of generations to come.

Have you tried [aluminum foil?](http://buffetoblog.files.wordpress.com/2010/10/costume-silver-surfer-or-aluminum-foil-man.jpg?w=450&h=600)

The action is two-fold:

1. It will act as a Faraday gage, blocking out the harmful EM radiation.

2. Acts as a repellent to teh Gay.

It hasn’t proven affective against the pedophile. I fear I might have to start using a Saran Wrap undercoating.  
ETA: The cape is just for fun!

And yet, it seems to take forever before they’re fully cooked. Why do you suppose that is?

Or could it be that the only ‘wild concoction’ really at play here is your delusional view of the world?
