~~~~~Wolfy, seek help.

Oh jeez, man, if you only knew! EVERYBODY in this fukkin place tells me to
get help. And EVERY time somebody says "get help", I go out and get some
more help. It's got to where I can't take a **** in the morning without
some damned helper asking me "Shall I shake, Sir?" I got helpers in my
bedroom.....I got helpers in the kitchen....I got helpers in the laundry
room.....****, I got so many fukkin helpers in the back of the van I can't
even hear Cokie Roberts on the liberal controlled media on the way to work
in the morning for all the fukkin helpers yammering in the back seat! I got
helpers so thick under the living room carpet it looks like some kinda
fukkin James Cameron movie on hallucinogens......the damned dog won't even
come in the house anymore!

Wolfgang
help this!

2 observations

1. Gary Perez of Bluestone rod is ****ed because he got moderated or
edited on the rod board. The reason he posted it here is because he
thought he would get back at the board owner and maybe 'ruin' him by
virtue of public opinion. It would appear that he failed.

2. Any of you who aren't interested in this conversation and believe
the participants to be 'halfwits' make an interesting bunch of
halfwits yourself - why are you bothering to read and respond to
anything which you say you have no interest in? I think you actually
relish the 'drama.'

A little comic relief is always welcome, no matter what the subject or
source. If you wish to construe that as "interest", well then you are
correct. If you actually read the responses to date, you will discover that
most people were merely trying to point out to dear old sapphire that he is
wasting his time posting this stuff here.

His reasons for doing so were quite obvious from the start, as were his
specious arguments. The effect on Mr.Kirkman will likely remain absolutely
zero, apart perhaps from some mild amusement on his part, as based on his
silly posts to date, nobody gives a **** what dear old sapphire has to say
about him. Not even Mr.Kirkman, as the motivation and absolutely ridiculous
basis for the posts is amply clear, and is set out very clearly in the posts
themselves.

Even supposing that everything old sapphire writes is the absolute and
unadorned truth, this by no means casts a slur on Mr. Kirkman, as he has the
perfect right to do anything he likes on his own board, and nobody with any
sense, either here or elsewhere, will disagree with that basic premise,
which our poor befuddled old sapphire apparently finds impossible to accept.

Our precious stone is obviously more than somewhat misguided regarding
"boards" specifically, and Usenet and the internet in general. He is not the
first, and he wont be the last.

For some, including myself, such behaviour is fascinating, as it gives
insight into abnormal thought processes, which are also based on faulty
reasoning. Observing such behaviour is perversely satisfying, possibly due
to its very abnormality.

The complete inability to grasp or accept obvious facts, although fairly
widespread, is not easy to observe in such glorious completeness. Here we
have a perfect example of it, not the first we have seen here, but
definitely
one of the more shining examples, and are suitably awed and curious as to
its
causes and effects. Indeed, some of us are driven to investigate even
further, in the, probably completely vain, hope of understanding how such a
thing is possible.

Practically the only way to give anybody here the impression that you are a
half-wit, is, to behave like one. In this case, all the relevant criteria
have been fulfilled.

Strange as it may seem, this newsgroup exists for no other purpose than
allowing people to read what others post. Deciding not to read some posts,
requires conscious effort, or action, and this is simply too much trouble to
take.
Many people here read every single post. Even the stupid ones. This even
provides a modicum of amusement on occasion.

Some dramas may benefit from having a large number of players. I don´t think
this one will.

Allow me to hazard a guess or three as to the meaning of that apparently
quite nonsensical statement? You have a "Play-Doh" set with a Moses mould?
You are an avid supporter of unnatural sexual practices? It is an
incredibly cleverly veiled insult?

As this is an unmoderated group, it is hardly sensible to expect moderation,
many do however expect a modicum of sense. Most unfortunate that they are so
regularly disappointed.

bluestonerod

We all know why you are here. You are engaged in a futile attempt to "teach
somebody a lesson". Admittedly not myself, which is just as well, as I
rather doubt there is anything much you could teach me in any case, and
almost certainly nothing worthwhile.

Unfortunately for you, communication on any useful level, demands that what
you write makes sense to others. Otherwise, it is not communication, it is
merely senseless drivel.

Which led me to gently to Chester, who amused me so much that I had to
stop reading and sit and laugh a while.
