Wildest Bill deserves a second chance...

I just had a horrible thought: what if WB is really A Certain Person doing more “research”?

Um, I wouldn’t say Bill is EVIL, or a bad guy, like JDT.
He’s just, well, to put it diplomatically, he has a very “unique” idea of the world.

Yeah, unique, that’s it.

Personally-he’s a big kid. He seems a lot younger than he says he is…he has a childlike faith in his own ideas and when he sees something he disagrees with it, it’s evil.

Everything is black and white, with Billy Boy. No shades of grey.

I couldn’t respond to this statement (from the thread linked in the OP) because it was in GD, but I can here:

He’s endured it with courtesy and a smile because he’s too stupid to know any better!

Whew! Just had to get that off my chest.

Now, now, Esprix. There’s no question but that he knows he’s been insulted by a number of Dopers. Personally, I would have left after a tenth of the abuse that he’s received (not that he didn’t deserve at least some of it). I also agree that he can be extraordinarily frustrating to deal with, and he has left me literally shaking with anger on one or two occasions. But he really does try to take “turn the other cheek” seriously, and I can respect that.

Besides, he inspires other Dopers to post thoughtful and well-written responses to his diatribes, to the great benefit of all of us.

I know this is the pit but even so this was not very nice. And if this is the way smart intellectual people act, I think I rather be known as stupid.

Me too.

Well, lucky you - you got your wish. In spades.

:rolleyes:

Bill, you already are, at least by many on this board.

To avoid it in the future, preview your posts for correct grammar and punctuation, back up your assertions with citable facts, and try to understand other points of view instead of dismissing them out of hand.

People only think you’re stupid because of what you post, and the way you post it.

Since I didn’t think he was worth hijacking my “Christian music on country radio” thread, I’ll reply here:

Which, of course, should read, “… piss off, too.” Haven’t we talked about proofreading, Bill?

Stop giving me the ammo, dimbulb.

No, I don’t believe in Christianity because I do not believe that Jesus, wonderful teacher that he was, was the son of God. If you want to project some kind of divinity upon a man, that’s your choice, but I find it to be suspect, and I certainly don’t believe in it. That you’ve then gone to taking his teachings, twisting them to suit your needs, and using them as a weapon against me only proves my point.

I believe you tried once to figure me out and were so far off the mark it was pathetic. You going for round two? I mean, really - do you need to give people even more reason to find you to be a willyfully ignorant buffoon?

I thought we weren’t going to talk about JDT anymore.

Wait, Esprix pays us to “take for him”?

Dammit! Where’s my check, Esprix?? :slight_smile:

Tsk, tsk, Esprix . . . haven’t you ever heard of a little thing called Gaudere’s Rule? :slight_smile:

Anyhow, I am still laughing over Bill’s invocation of “smart intellectual people,” so I can’t chide you too much for it.

Well, Esprix sent one to ME…I don’t know why YOU didn’t get one, Falcon!
:wink:

Hey, he isn’t all bad! His incomprehensible spewage did give me my new sig!!
