Why even bother replying at all? If this is the best you got? L-a-m-e.
I have no idea what point you are making here.
I wish Little Pig were a little more indecipherable.
There was an early competition to get added to the list. That was Bo’s entry.
You haven’t truly seen undecipherable until you mix together English as a second language, apple auto correct, and alcoholism. OMG! I had this friend who used to message me all the time when they were drunk, and those messages were truly impossible to understand. Yet hilarious. Have never laughed so much in my life.
In this forum, I think most of the time, misunderstandings occur because of mismatched worldviews or because people sometimes post using their own unique cultural speak, forgetting or not realizing that the words they use automatically aren’t well known outside their specialty.
Like the pi guy. Although, I don’t understand science, so it might have been nonsense all the way through. But I’d assume that on a forum filled with passionate science and math geeks, he might make more sense. (If what he said had any actual merit, that is.)
But that’s also the best thing about the SDMB. I come here to learn about other people and how they see the world. The poster who was obsessed about waiters filling her water glass without asking for permission was super interesting and fun to hear from.
Although, it does annoy me muchly, when people write in huge block paragraphs with no spaces in between. It’s very hard and frustrating to read those posts and I sometimes skip them. And of course, tons of grammar and spelling mistakes, or unique choices can be annoying to try and parse through, as well.
But mostly, I love reading everyone’s posts, and I learn a lot.
Sorry this isn’t a more pitlike response. I haven’t really developed the ability to insult people yet, and I don’t believe in arguing, which is why I don’t post a lot.
At least call him Obi Wan Colibri. It’s like you’re not even trying.
It’s a passage from James Joyce, I believe. I think Bo’s point is that Leo Bloom is trying to immitate that style.
I think.
You’re just jealous you can’t be in our club.
Seriously, I googled that and got hits, but no actual citation or attribution. How does that happen? Are there sites that give you matches to anything?
I thought it was created by one of those random word generators similar to ones that have been used to make fake academic papers.
No, that’s not an actual passage from anything James Joyce wrote.
“Linear” doesn’t necessarily require straight, but in your case sometimes it’s not even continuous.
It’s my recollection that he (justhink) was not only banned for trolling, but that there was at least some suspicion that he used a text generator to produce some of his posts.
And one of those is this very thread! Talk about meta!
Cause I know you’re hungry.
Here’s a recipe for creepy Colibri.
Broiled beet.
Scrounge up some change from the couch, pimp out your wife, or bust out that Snap card and acquire 2-3 beets. Heirloom beets if you can afford them.
Go to a neighbor who has a working oven and ask to borrow the broiler for a few.
Insert beet.
Cook until reaches desired tenderness.
Enjoy.
But not too much, gynecomastia is a pain to get rid of at your age.
Eat shit, asshole.
You really seem to be enjoying yourself (you’ve posted the same stuff in multiple threads) but for the life of me I don’t understand why. It’s as if you think this is a clever insult. It’s definitely not worth of cross-posting. It doesn’t even make fucking sense. What, is eating beets supposed to give him gynecomastia? Huh?
I am nowhere near as clever as the 100th posting of this.
I wonder if that would be a legit sig?
Well, you gonna eat the shit, or stand there playing with it?
