Yeah, regardless of what you might have meant, Jeebus, I don’t think using the word “shit” in that context was the right choice. Kinda like saying “oh is that some black person shit?” Shit is generally used to refer to bad things.

I doubt it was intentional, but it was a poor choice.

You’d by shocked by the way some circles use the word “shit” then, because I remember one time when I was helping a friend move to a new home and he said, “can you help me put all this shit in the car,” referring to his guitar, bass, amplifiers, and other music paraphernalia, which was basically what his life revolves around. That’s just one example; some people say “shit” in the same way they mean “stuff”. Or is language not “fluid” anymore?

IT’S ALL ABOUT CONTEXT!

I feel sorry for you though. As an adult you had the opportunity to break the cycle of poor treatment you were raised with, yet you perpetuate it instead.

How do you even know he had a troubled childhood?

IF you truly have fathered children, I would not count them lucky.

Judging someone’s parenthood based on their online behavior? Kill the motor, dude.

Since it’s 99% certain that OtakuWarrior is a sock of HansiG, will HansiG’s temp ban be upgraded to a permanent ban?

OtakuWarrior joined a day before HansiG got banned. Can that be chalked up to timezone fuckery?

Why was Hansi banned anyway?

Maybe the mods just got sick of it.

This was his last post:

Every time I see an ad for The BFG, all I can think is “The Big Fuckin’… Guy? Gun? Gatsby?”
It’s a terrible title and I can’t be the only one who thinks so.

I hope so.

Is it OK to make fun of politicians?

Let’s not bring ImpScum’s ‘truth’ stchick into this.

What’s wrong with ImpericalScum?

He’s a class-act troll.

Do you know him personally? Are you his attending physician?

Nope to both.

What makes him so wrong that one would have to chastise him in this thread over a conversation he had nothing to do with?

Most of what he says is ridiculous.

Maybe I’m ImpScum’s verified sock?

Ha, no.

I’m interested in hearing how it is you feel it’s fair to treat him the same way you believe Frink doesn’t treat others here? I’m patient too. I’ll wait.

I think ImperialScum is so out there it’s OK to make fun of him.

Let’s not bring ImpScum’s ‘truth’ stchick into this.

Jetrell Fo said:

Really???

Don’t do this shit too. Frink said “I’m not going to lie, that made me laugh.”, which was in response to YOUR post. I told HIM I was not glad that those 2 things made him laugh". Maybe you should re-read the exchange. It was NOT directed at you. I won’t dissect it for you again, sorry.

It was directed towards “angel boy”, not you yhwx.

You said that you weren’t glad at someone calling it nice. That’s me.

I should just kick back, eat some popcorn, and watch this endless stream of entertainment.

I tell you guys what, if “moron” is offensive, I apologize and will do my best to no longer use it. I’m assuming “idiot” is offensive as well, so I will try not to use that either.

I assume “of limited intelligence” is ok, right? I’m assuming so because that’s impscum’s favorite and he never says anything wrong.

Well the difference between you and me is that I am not offended when other people do what I do. You on the other hand are a hypocrite. You say/do things to people and at the same time you get offended (or even worse, you claim it is offensive to a specific group of people) when other people say/do the same things to you.

So I’m gonna ask for some examples. . . .

Jeebus…is that some Christian shit?

I would interpret that as asking if my name has something to do with Christianity, or is a reference to Chrstianity. And I would reply “no, it’s in part a Simpsons reference, and also an inside joke I had with my friends.”

Is the issue with the word shit? Because I could’ve used stuff, if you prefer.

If you just stepped in dog poo, you wouldn’t say:

I stepped in some dog facile matter.

You might say:

I stepped in some dog shit.

Some contexts are different than others. Saying ‘shit’ in front of a religion name is incredibly offensive. So, yes, I would prefer that you say ‘stuff.’

Jeebus… Is that some sort atheist shit?

Is that some sort Jesus shit?

I think you mean the “Entire Forum/Fo feud” given the evidence presented by Mr. Fo.

Fuck you.

That’s becoming a popular phrase around here these days.

Jetrell Fo said:

Tyrphanax said:

Ah that’s how I took it.

What did you mean then?

Okay, here’s the thing. Is Frink a bully? He most certainly IS.

Agree to disagree?

There are SO many instances of him labeling people who piss him off with mental illness disorders that it boggles the mind why he is allowed to do so. He shows NO remorse or emotion of any kind towards the people he does this too either. In all the time I’ve been here he’s apologized to me once and I firmly believe that he was asked to do it by someone higher than him.

I think the instances you speak of aren’t bullying.

Words DO hurt

Agreed.

and Frink NEVER takes responsibility for what he says … it’s ALWAYS the other persons handicap if they can’t take “his” humor … ALWAYS.

Disagreed.

When he gets punked he lashes out in childish fits of rage and some people find it funny … like “OMG, Frink you really nailed it” or “Frink, you da man” kinda crap.

Isn’t that the natural human instinct?

All it does is enable his behavior towards others he feels are inferior in all ways to him. READ the forum. It’s littered. Go back and find random posts he’s made at other people. There IS a pattern. And ALL this anger coming from a guy who says he’s happily married and has disabled children?

I wouldn’t call it ‘anger.’

I’ve spent enough time around people in my life to know that either he’s a closet internet sociopath because of being bullied as a child and an angel in real life … or he’s full of shit.

The former, without the ‘internet sociopath’ part.

Either way it’s always the same with him. He calls it sarcasm but it reads and feels like pure bullying, like he owns a part of this section of the web due to a few fan edits and he can just do whatever the fuck he wants while some laugh and others get trampled and ridiculed. He does not own me. He does not own my feelings or my words. He has all the characteristics of the kind of person I warn my daughter about.

I get where you’re coming from, but I think he’s well intentioned.

I don’t care that it’s in off-topic … it doesn’t make it right.

If this ‘bullying’ were real, then you would be correct.

Now, as for the socks, Frink is not the only one to have had multiple socks here, and there is NO way to know that he is even telling the truth about not having more. Can you honestly say you can see and look up his IP address or the IP address of every person here? No. I know I can’t. It certainly seems plausible that some of those instant responses from differnet names agreeing with him 100% about the nasty crap he spewed to someone “could” well be a sock of his or someone else here that is okay with fucking with people for entertainment value. I don’t care that it’s in off-topic … it doesn’t make it right.

Okay, so let’s all share our IP addresses, shall we?

When this is posted you’re going to see one of two things … either people are going to come out and chastise this post or those who chastise will stay silent, change the subject, or try to say something funny to draw attention away from the fact that they too, know it’s wrong, that Frink treats people who he says are inferior to him, as pieces of shit.

Like there’s a ‘silent majority’ or something?

I have tried hard to like him, find the humor in his so called wit, and even tried burying the hatchet so we could start fresh. Just when I think things are better I see a post of his flapping his gums at someone about how worthless they are compared to him and I’ve just had enough.

I don’t recall Frink ever doing thus.

In the end, as per my past experience with these complaints, Frink will be allowed to continue because not enough people here care about those anonymous folks behind their keyboards getting slammed by him, to show any support.

If they don’t care, why should they?

Sorry for the rant. I hope I answered your questions honestly enough.

Well, it sure is honest. And it’s OK to rant every so often.

Shawn

Nice name.

He refused to put the lotion on his skin, so he got the hose again.

In other words, he’s a waterlogged Palpy.

There’s such a thing as a shower in Star Wars so there must be lotion. . . .

Ah, that’s okay then. I can mostly agree. A couple guys like Kanye and Drake have interesting music.

The thing that stops me from listening to Drake is the over-processed, bass heavy, hyper compressed mixing choices.

“Gay” used to just mean “happy” in English. Now it doesn’t. Language is fluid.

Gay still means happy in addition to now more common informal use for homosexual person.

Moron was originally defined as a psychology term for “a person of mild mental retardation” in certain IQ range. While the new informal meaning doesn’t relate to the technical term in psychology, it still means stupid person nevertheless.

Context matters.

In any case, I wonder if you might have been “clearly offensive to certain people who have mental problems”?

There’s a clear difference between ‘moron’ and ‘mentally challenged.’

Not in English.

Connotation, not denotation.

Connotation is irrelevant. Only facts are relevant here.

Oh, your facts stchick again. I hate to break it to you, but context is important in language. You just don’t say “Thunder!” in the middle of a conversation.

Anyway, let’s veer it back to Star Wars.

Am I the only one annoyed by how ‘good’ life is being a slave in Episode I?

It wasn’t “I don’t use.” It was “I’m not going to use.”
