Z: Actually, to be exact, you were already fighting with people when I came on the scene. I exited, but Uumlau's post addressed me, which brought me back. Then you addressed me which kept me there for a few posts, and so on. If I do not respond, I am criticized for shirking an argument, and if I do respond, I am criticized for derailing the thread. I guess only the Great Z can do no wrong. (and those he deems worthy)
You're actually partially correct here, Aphrodite.
But. if we're gunna go into the details, well, you're also signficantly wrong.
(I left the full details out, to keep things quick and clean)
I was not fight with "people", I was dismissing onemoretime.
Then you and PeaceBaby came on and tried to bring some NF love to his side, which further derailed the thread, which would have lived on just fine after my excoriation.
Then, after that, your and my stories combined it the truth.
Look, don't get me wrong, you're fine to post here, but the line of discussion that got brought up was a derail; ys, it may have been at uumlau's instigation, but whatever, I don't really care.
That discussion was fine by me, as I do find you ideas at least thought-provoking, if clearly inaccurate.
Truth is, if I had simply responded to your theory last night, as opposed to fall asleep thinking about it and planning to write about it later, then this whole derail might never have turned into such a god damned clusterfuck.
But, I didn't, and so there wasn't enough substance to the discussion to prevent poki from coming in and screwing the whole thing up (granted, all of us, myself included, didn't help by: a) responding to him/her, and b) bickering like little fucking babies amongst ourselves).
Frankly, I don't have time to be on typeC all day; but I do love hearing (the smart) people's ideas regarding topics I find interesting and thought-provoking; so, I've started creating threads recently, and the last few of them have been very successful.
Unfortunately, it seems that unless I give the thread a lot of my time and energy, some other party or parties comes in an inevitably fucks it up. Complete derail. Squabbling back and forth. Insanity.
I wish there were simply an option to block certain people from posting, but, unfortunately, I don't believe that is a possibility.
I will get back to you on your theory later.
