On a serious note, I think the reason why you dismiss and make fun
of such examples is that you are afraid to examine the logic and
rationale behind them.


The reason I dismiss it is very, very simple:
I can take a gun, point it at your head, and
with a simple twitch of a finger I can kill
you with it. On the other hand, no matter
what I did I would not be able to get a Golden
to do any worse than lick your hand. And that
is the long and short of it.

Once again, you are arguing the wrong thing. I thought I explained
it rather well, but here it is ONCE AGAIN for YOU.

" I am not making the
comparison that golden retrievers are as dangerous as firearms, I am
comparing perceptions of usefulness. I am saying that just because
you or Willi view concealed weapons as being useless, that doesn't
make them so for everybody else. I am saying that it is just as
wrong as the notion that you should be able to tell others what to
drive, eat, etc."

Are you getting it yet?

You should make a file folder on your computer and save copies of all the
messages you post to ROFF in it. You should re-read all of them some day
when you become an adult¹. You might find this useful........or at least
amusing.

WTF is up with that?

Are you trying to make yourself older than you already are?

Just more typical Wolfgang crap. He thinks people really care about
what he says or maybe he just thrives on the friction he generates
here on ROFF, those who don't are a threat to his ego. He probably
leads a pretty uneventful, pathetic and lacking life and his only
outlet is trying to lower others to his pitiful level of existence.
His notion that I and others try and make ROFF all about him was
very entertaining though. Having not responded to a single "reply"
of his in several months has only further angered him in his
desperate quest to get attention. The fact that I do not place much
stock in anything he says probably disturbs him even more because he
views himself as being worthy of much more respect and influence
than he will ever actually have. Not sharing his view of himself is
likely insulting to him and he tries to bolster his own self-image
by waging "cyber-war" with those that oppose or challenge him. Have
you seen how many times he has responded to me lately? He can't
debate ideas or explain why anyone should share his views because he
doesn't want anything like that to happen. He is just interested in
creating as much conflict as he possibly can with the people he
views as enemies and so won't state an opinion, belief or anything
else that may be constructive so as to not limit his options for
future opposition. Such an attitude and behavior may lead him to a
very unfortunate conclusion down the road, but I doubt that will
discourage him in the least because he will just run back to his
keyboard and hide in the virtual world of cyber space where personal
relationships are as mythical as his worth to others.

There, there Wolfgang. Do you feel better now? That's more
attention than I have given you in six months!

Are you trying to make yourself older than you already are?

Gnomes allegedly have a very long life expectancy.

Astonishingly insightful. You must be very proud.......you SHOULD be.

There, there Wolfgang. Do you feel better now?

Than what? I mean, I left work early today because I wasn't feeling well,
but I have a hard time believing that you knew about that. So, I surmise
that you must be referring to something else. Any idea what it might be?

That's more
attention than I have given you in six months!

And I assure you that I am as grateful for that as all of ROFF must be for
your penetrating analysis of the guns vs. automobiles controversy.

Are you trying to make yourself older than you already are?

Hm.......gnomes......short things with a questionable attitude, ainna?

It isn't right that I take the credit since you did all of the
actual work.

I was unaware of that and hope that you soon recover from whatever
is ailing you.

Indeed.

Any idea what it might be?

Yes.

And I assure you that I am as grateful for that as all of ROFF must be for
your penetrating analysis of the guns vs. automobiles controversy.

It couldn't have been done without your helpful, insightful and
valuable input. Where would we all be without your guidance? We
may have been forced to come up with our own opinion on the issue
instead of the enlightened, well-reasoned and very intelligent
direction that you so eloquently lead us in. In the future I will
be sure to save time by first asking you what I should believe and
why. What is it that I am supposed to believe again?

LOL!
Well done! :-)

That you will, one day.....oh, say in twenty-five years or so....wonder how
life might have been different if your daughter had been raised by an adult.

Wolfgang
to whom it probably won't make much difference.

If, in the future, there's ever a doubt about what a jerk Wolfgang
can be in this forum one need only reference this gem to remove it.

You really are a pitiful excuse for a human being.

It will one of these days. I GUARANTEE it.
