Varlos: You’re correct. Commas and other diacriticals are not his strong suit. BTW, I do believe I’ll scream the next time I see “y’all” spelled “ya’ll.”
Yah mean, like Cecil? I really enjoy condscending pedants.
Perhaps she was anticipating a time when so many folks would want to wipe their asses with you.
Oh Gawd! Now we know what his real problem is. His momma done went & called him cute & he never got over it.
Dude, are you reading what I am writing?
I harbor no outrage whatsoever. Hence my questioning of the necessity of this pit thread. Recall I said that I was dealing with him just fine. So I tossed off a gratuitous insult.
Big fucking deal. I ain’t a Christian. I an dealing with Bill’s monumental ignorance in GD. Perhaps you should consult the thread. And I am offended by the accusation that I am sinking to his level. My level is considerably lower than his, so I would urge you to reevaluate your position on this matter.
And no, most people do not like condescending pedants. I don’t even like Cecil. Do I respect him? Damn right. But do I like his written persona? Nope.
Well, not everything. In the GD thread started by Fenris regarding the use of the word “fundies”, WB is coherantly and logically defending his position. He isn’t name calling, he’s not being rude, and he’s making some interesting points. Good job on the thread, Bill
Dingdingding!!
Thanks, ruadh, for once more telling it like it is in a way that even Bill might grasp.
Bill, I sincerely hope it doesn’t happen. I really, really don’t. But what if your daughter (an assumption, I have no idea of your marital status, children, age…) was raped, and turned out to be pregnant? Would you still oppose abortion and make her have that child? The child of the man that raped her?
Would you?
Hold up, there … I wasn’t trying to offend anyone, just making a point.
The phrase in question - "He’s the load his mother should have swallowed."
I was sensing a little outrage. Hell, I’m outraged.
Yes, a gratuitous insult. Un-warranted? Maybe- maybe not. I’m not in that big of a twist over it. I just calls 'em as I sees 'em.
I knew that “Christian” thing was going to come back and bit me in the ass.
News Flash: I ain’t a Christian either.
My point there is that one of the major arguments I’ve heard agains Bill is: “For a Christian, you sure don’t act like one”. I threw in a little irony, just for the hell of it.
I’ve read that three times and I can’t tell if you’re making a funny or if you just mis-typed it and you actually are pissed off.
Your level is lower than his?
Anyway, Mom-judo is a pretty low level.
I don’t even want to get in between you and Bill and Buddha knows I don’t have the patience to have a discussion or an argument with him.
I wasn’t meaning to pick on you. I just picked on what you said, to make a point. You want to go after Bill? Don’t mind me – sic 'em.
Ok. You’re just going to smoke a turd in hell, for that one.
why am i thinking the words ‘shotgun wedding?’
I honestly want to start a Wildest Bill Fan Club.
::crickets chirping::
Just for the hell of it, more of Bill’s greatest hits, grammatically speaking:
I actually think this list is pretty funny. Forgive me, Bill.
Yes, it’s much better to raise an unwanted child. It doesn’t matter if you’re poor, if you’re an alcoholic, if you are a drug addict, if you are 15, if you are dumber than asphalt, if you just really don’t want and can’t handle the responsibility of a child. It doesn’t matter that there’s a chance the child will always be aware that he was unwanted. It’s much better to carry the evidence of a vicious, hateful act in your womb for nine months. It’s much better to suffer yourself and make the baby suffer for the rest of both of your lives.
Wildest Bill, you are truly narrow-minded and ignorant to the realities of life.
And please answer ruadh’s question - how is blowing up an abortion clinic for religious reasons different from flying a plane into WTC for religious reasons, except for scale and the religion itself? Such Christians and such Muslims are hypocrits twisting the so-called word of God to justify their own hatred, ignorance and madness. And to empathize with them - in my mind, you’re no better than the killers yourself.
Well, except for the post where he called Esprix a “faggot” several times with the thinly veiled excuse of “Well, I’m not actually calling you one, but if I did, I bet you wouldn’t like it!”
From here

(And kudos to Esprix for resisting toasting him in GD. You have more fortitude than I, m’friend.)
Every time the little twerp gets in over his head, he resorts to truly ugly comments, like the time he called SexyWriter a slut 'cause she was winning an argument or the time Guin told him that reckless driving was bad and he responded that the only reason she was getting decent grades was because she spread her legs. (both paraphrased and from memory, but I can provide cites, if needed). Hell, he even played the “slut” card with Esprix in that thread.
I assumed that Maeglin was trying to talk to the little fucker in a voice he understood.
Every time he feels himself losing, he says something loathsome, backs off, gives a half-assed “well, shuks. Im jest, a por dum guy but, i wuz ronged, but i shudn’ta otta, sayd whut i sayd. but if yew hadnta maid me, i woudnta, had.” comment.
And when someone launches a pre-emptive strike as Maeglin did, he comes back with the “you’re, momma shuda warshed, yo’re mouth owt with, soap with all’n yore, filthie language! Im, shocked SHOKED! that, yewd say somthing profane to li’l ol’ me!” and I’m sick of both routines. He’s a nasty, mean, little fuck who could only improve the boards with an enforced, perpetual absence.
Those of you newer members might not be as familiar with some of his psychotic, over-the-top comments. Do some older searches for him in the Pit and get a feel for what a nasty asswipe he really is, as opposed to the mentally challenged country boy persona he plays. (and it is an act. When he chooses to, he can spell and write correctly. But when he plays the dumb hick card, people pity him and he only gets about half the flaming he’d otherwise get)
Fenris, finally fed up.
I love him. He mispelled y’all.
Marry me WB, even though I’m a straight happily married straight man and a liberal Democrat. I’ll be a homosexual bigamist for you.
Wow, I’ve seen that. It’s pretty fucked up.
This is very funny. I love it.
That was supposed to be “I’ve never seen that.”
Thank you.
Nonsense- you insulted all Muslims, in GD, with your assertions that all Muslims are anti-American.

I had been thinking of starting my own Pit thread, but I figured I’d just post this argument to this one:
Anyway, WB talks a lot about Christianity, and how being a Christian is so important to him, and how non-Christians like Gandhi will be tortured in hell for an eternity, and so on and so forth. But, as you know, many people tell WB that he isn’t a Christian, because he doesn’t act like one, and he generally shrugs it off. After all, Jesus will forgive him, because he has a personal relationship with Christ, right?
But what does it really mean to have a personal relationship with Christ, or with anyone else? It seems to me that if you really love someone, then you try to understand them deeply and to figure out what their likes and dislikes are, and you try to preemptively do things which you know will please them. I’ve met some people who are real Christians, who clearly love Christ a great deal, and who clearly spend a lot of time thinking about what they can do to make Jesus happy.
WB, on the other hand, takes an approach which is completely different from that of someone with a real relationship with Jesus. WB’s typical pattern of behavior is that he does what he pleases- for example, he’ll insult people, sometimes in very nasty ways. When folks point out that his behavior is blatantly inappropriate and unacceptable for mature adults, WB demands that they produce a Bible verse which explicitly forbids whatever he just did. Typically this is easy to do- the Bible verses in question are often so well-known that even non-Christians can produce them. WB will then try to rules-lawyer some loophole by which he can do what he pleases anyway.
If it’s a really big issue, for example if WB has made an anti-Semitic rant in which he calls for genocide, then after much tooth-pulling effort we might be able to convince WB that he simply cannot create an excuse that will fly with Jesus. At that point, WB acts very chastened and talks about how sometimes he isn’t a good Christian, but we all make mistakes and even one of the disciples cut off someone’s ear, etc.
Does WB’s behavior count as having a loving, personal relationship with Jesus? I think not. I can’t imagine a marriage based on such behavior lasting long at all. Imagine, for example, that the husband periodically gets caught cheating, and each time demands that his wife point to exactly where in the marriage vows adultery is forbidden. When she does so, he argues that fellatio technically isn’t sex. When she asks for a divorce, he makes a big deal of how he hasn’t been the best husband, how everyone makes mistakes, and so on. Maybe she stays with him- and then he cheats on her again. I ask you: is this the behavior of a man who loves his wife? A man who actively thinks about things he can do that will please her? Would anyone on the receiving end of this “personal relationship” want to stay with such a husband?
Let me also point out that in response to WB’s grousings about my criticisms of his behavior, I have asked him more than once whether I have ever asked anything of him which Jesus did not already ask. That question is always a real conversation-killer for WB; he always seems to drop the argument rather than dare to answer it. I point to that fact as further proof that WB’s main goal is to do what he pleases, and Christ’s involvement in his life is limited to serving as fire insurance and as an occasional, unpleasant restriction which should be circumvented whenever possible. If he can blame Jesus’ restrictions on me, and thus pretend that he won’t go to hell for ignoring my “unreasonable” demands, then that helps WB maintain the illusion that he is a real Christian and can keep on doing what he likes without having to worry about hell.

You know, perhaps the Pit thread wasn’t needed-but then, I needed it. I was really really pissed at Bill’s insinuations about abortion doctors and such, because I have known people who have had abortions and the like and I KNOW it’s not an easy choice.
The same guy who calls them baby terrorists was yelling about nuking the ragheads, killing their families, insulting their religion, etc etc. Pot Kettle Black.
Oh, and Fenris, I was saying I was asking my professor to drive me across campus rather than using the crosswalk with so many dangerous drivers, and Bill asked me what I did to “persuade” my professor to do so. Then he appologizes-but it’s not a real appology, but a weasel.
