Silverstreak Wonder, you’re a bit of an odd one. You’ve a number of … eccentric views, many of which seem ill-informed. But, hey, that’s life. I’d not pit you for it.
You feckless, assinine little punk. I don’t care what you believe - about politics, health care reform, whatever. It’s a free Board. But you will show respect to people posting about deeply personal problems. I know this is just the OP’s friend-of-a-friend, but damnit, that’s still far too close a connection to bust out your conspiracy nonsense. It’s offensive, it’s ugly, and it shows that you don’t seem to understand this isn’t just your personal Internet playground. The other people writing on this Board are actual people, you idiot, with real problems that they really, genuinely care about. This isn’t a game for them, and it shouldn’t be one for you. If you can’t bring yourself to empathize with strangers, then either fake it or shut the hell up.
Moreover - the suggestion that the doctors would keep this woman alive to milk her for insurance money, or cover up their blunder … you know what, I could talk all day about the ways in which that’s messed up.
Let me just put it like this: There are many extraordinary people on the Dope - people I suspect I’d be pleased to know IRL. Whatever misfortunes may befall me in this life, however, I can take comfort in this: I do not know you, Silverstreak Wonder, and I almost certainly never will.
I never understand comments like this.
It’ pretty hilarious, actually. You can’t make the guy do anything of the sort. Yeah, he’s a douchebag, by why go all badass on him when you have no ability to make him comply with your decree?
He is awfully entertaining. The problem is that things he say sound vaguely plausible if you don’t pay too much attention, because his grammar and spelling are pretty good. I’m worried somebody might actually listen to him, which would be a Very Bad Thing.
After getting into it with him about his stupid stepping on the Qur’an thing for airport security, my hat’s off to anyone willing to engage with him for more than ten minutes. He combines denseness, ignorance and stubbornness in exciting new ways.
I’m glad somebody pitted him, and it was artfully done.
While we’re at it, let’s tell him to quit whining about getting moderated once, 50 years ago, for 20 minutes…or whatever it is he’s been singing “Poor Little Me” about in multiple threads. He doesn’t like rules. We get that. Now shut up about it already.
