Yeah well, fuck off and a hug for you.
No. I don’t dislike Sampiro. Really I don’t. I just have a problem with this particular action of him. I will continue to read his posts and respond to them if I see fit, no matter what the topic is. None of this is personal. It is perfectly ok to like someone and disagree with them every once in a while. I think it is wrong for him to obsessed with the sister board and I think it is doubly wrong of him to bring it up where nobody else had. I am just calling him on that. Hopefully he will get it. I would have pitted the same any other person who had done that, and I will pit him again if he does something I find pittable again.
I’m still straight (Miller isn’t - are you trying to ruin Christmas for my girlfriend? I’ve probably got that covered.), but I appreciate the shoutout.
Anyway, I’m a big fan of your posts - the “Couldn’t cut it with a hacksaw” song might be the funniest thing I’ve read in three or four years on the Dope - so I have to agree with some of the other posters in this thread. Stop paying attention to the schmucks. Just stop. I have no idea why CarnalK started raising an issue over what was obviously an un-malicious aside about Jodie Foster. In a friendly way, I’m just saying get over it. Whatever the problem is, here or on the other board, I doubt there’s anything you can do about it, so forget it already. Assholes on this board seem to stick around forever; it’s only the worthwhile people who get tired of the crap. You let this shit get under your skin sometimes, way too far. The same goes with that other board. I’ve heard about it and never got curious enough to look, and I don’t think I ever will. Who needs that? Stop subjecting yourself to it.
Huzzah and wonderful, you and Ruby made a breakthrough, now get a room and go on Oprah. But last time I checked this was MY pit thread and if you don’t return to talking about me I’m going to have to ask my eunuchs to show you out! Now since Sapo took the trouble to start the whole thing I really don’t want to do that plus I hate making a scene in front of the other guests, but this is your last warning. Am I clear?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, so was Jodi until Friday. That’s how this whole thing started.
Ok, you made me chortle, I hope you are happy with yourself Sirrah! 
I apologize, Your Grace, don’t have me thrown in the dungeon! Not after you said that Helen Mirren could play me in the movie version of my last Pit thread. I might have been the queen in that thread, but you truly are The Queen.
Also, I apologize for attributing “ire” to your comment about La Foster. I recognized the spirit in which it was intended, though some of my gay friends are quite aggravated with her for setting up what they thought was a permanent camp in the closet. Not you, my bad, though that John Hinckley… HOT.
Sounds like you have some inside info. Is the Homintern after me, or is it the Gay Mafia?
Fair enough. You get the Rubystreak treatment, but without the hug. 
Oh, Eve? Okay. See Cafe Society.

Well, I’m glad everyone’s getting along but I thought I’d remind you that Sampiro is basically deluded when he acts like I’m a stalker or constantly trolling him, everyone now seems to take that as a given with Richard Parker and Orual specifically making shit up to back him. I said a long time ago, I never really have any problem with Sampiro either until he starts going psycho on me and, like Sapo said, always bringing up the “other place” every time we interact.
If you never wanted to be treated like an enemy, you should never have taken hostile measures! :dubious: You’re no saint.
OK, I’m no Saint. I’m just saying that putting me on ignore is not going to have the great life affirming effect on Sampiro’s life that people are implying around here - we are basically never in the same threads.
I’ve known Sampiro since long before he or I joined the SDMB. I’ve talked with him, drank with him, eaten with him, met his mother, known “Earl” and many of the people he writes about. I’ve discussed literature, philosophy, science, religion, politics, pop culture, history, and a thousand other things with him, over email, in person, and even in a mildewy jazz club in Montgomery.
I’ve laughed at his jokes, agreed and disagreed with him, and rolled my eyes over the antics of Earl, who is a mutual friend of ours.
Most of what he posts, I’ve already read, since he’s a part of a very dear and close circle of friends of mine. Even though we’re scattered across the country in a dozen directions, I value the input of that circle of friends, and especially that of Sampiro, more than I can say. And I will always stay friends with them.
Now, if you know anything about me at all, you will know that I do not make friends easily. I’m introspective, aloof, arrogant, and frankly consider myself above most people. What can I say? It’s a flaw. The friends I DO tend to keep are people whom I truly feel are worth my respect and time. As a result, I have a very select group of people who I consider lifelong friends. People for whom I’d do anything under the sun. With my money, with my time, or with any and all resources at my command. These are people who are kinder than I am. More sane than I am. More experienced, wise, compassionate, and open-minded.
Sampiro is one of those people. I can assure you that he does not require the “professional help” some of you goddamned idiots so blithely suggest.
And don’t think for a second that I’m not aware that half of you are Snarkpit trolls who have nothing better to with your time than try to get a rise out of Sampiro. Worthless fucking bastards, the lot of you.
If you had half the spine that Sampiro does, you’d go find something worthwhile to do with your lives.
Looks like a joke to me.
I agree with Rubystreak that Sampiro comes out (heh) looking just fine in that thread. CarnalK, OTOH, is being a flamebaiting troll-jerk over there, like he always is. I would go on, but he thrives on negative attention, so I won’t give him the pleasure.
This has got to be one of the sappiest Pit threads I’ve ever seen. The Pit has fallen a long, long way. It’s too bad the snark board and CarnalK’s snark site are just as lame. Sapo, have you considered writing Hallmark cards?
I dunno. I haven’t spent much time there, though I admit that morbid curiosity has me peeking at it from time to time. But I can say that I’ve met at least one Doper IRL who genuinely surprised me by telling me she was a snarker, and quite a dedicated one–you couldn’t tell at all from her posts here. I think it’s like addiction: if you have the wrong personality type and mindset, it will hurt you, but a lot of people can probably handle it. I like to think that it’s more like Friday-night-only heroin use: a way to blow off steam and keep all the madness and darkness of the rest of your week from welling up inside you and blowing you to pieces.
This is the funniest thing I’ve read all week. No, really, keep on with your one-liners; I’m gonna go get a drink at the bar and find a good seat.
I, for one, think it’s hilarious that the snarkers spend all day long drooling over the Dope, especially the ones who have obviously been banned from the SDMB. I mean, really. It’s a fucking Internet message board. Dumbasses. What’s even funnier is when someone posting under a non-anonymous name is on such a high horse that she (MsRobyn) threatens to reveal a snarker’s username based on his IP. Comedy gold. Get a life, people.
OK, you little twit, why don’t you back that up?
What I say is the only Sampiro thread I’ve participated in all year was on good behaviour in that Ellen vs Animal shelter one. The only time this year I had harsh words about him was brought up when I was arguing with tomndebb.
My “snark site” is really a just a “dark history” site, is done in a good natured manner and doesn’t even include Sampiro.
So prove me wrong, laughing boy.
But see, this is what I don’t get. Even leaving out the meatspace friends, Sampiro has so many friends, admirers and supporters here on SDMB, I just don’t understand why he gets so bent out of shape over the occasional detractor. Why does he fly into these rages that have to be defended by posts like yours? There are posters who are constantly at odds with the majority, and while they sometimes get a trifle excited 
, they don’t froth at the mouth for seven posts in a row. One criticism seems to ruin his whole month. And if he’s all that, it shouldn’t.
But you’ve already described how difficult you are – how arrogant. It sounds to me like almost anyone would be kinder, more compassionate and more open-minded that you, Ogre.
I don’t know of anyone who couldn’t benefit from a little counseling sometimes. Considering what Sampiro has been through in the last year or so, it wouldn’t surprise me if he did need to talk with someone. It’s not an insult to suggest it and he knows that.
Wow what a mess! I couldn’t make it through the multi-OPs but I need read the later posts with the colors. How come I have a reputation for being unintelligible? That thread makes Sampiro look Britney-Spears-Shaving-her-legs-in-a-hotel-swimming-pool-crazy. I mean really really crazy. Wow. So crazy.
Anyways I was a bit alarmed by Sampiro saying that masturbating with one’s own feces is better than snark. Is this true? I don’t think we’ve been reading the same websites. One is just some harmless ribbing. Most of us see each other as just text and an associated screen name. I think it’s foolish to take anything said personally or spend a bunch of time choking down moral smugness and pride.
CarnalK has stated a few times that he doesn’t participate in Sampiro’s threads. So I had a quick look for threads that Sampiro had started that CarnalK had posted to and came up with only these:
The current one,
The New Pitting of ScumPup and
and notice that in the August thread he apologises to CarnalK, who isn’t in the thread for the amazing invective of the thread some months prior.
Colour me confused. From my brief reading of these things I must have received a playbill with the casting reversed.
Is there actually any evidence that CarnalK ever started any argument?
